As a bar, Forestry Tap & Axe is pretty average. However, they do have a decent selection of tap…read morebeer featuring local brewers such as Rocky Reef. What really stands out here are the games, including axe throwing, shuffle board, Hammerschlagen (a nail pounding game), darts, pool, ping pong, cribbage, and probably something else that I didn't see. Their shuffle board table is one of the best I've ever played on -- full sized, smooth and fast. It may take a few tries to get the hang of it, but once you get zeroed in it makes for a great game. And, of course, as their name implies, the featured activity is axe throwing. Tossing a dangerous tool, trying to stick it in a wooden wall, and hitting the target for maximum points is harder than it looks. But once you get the technique mastered (even partially) it is incredibly satisfying and a lot of fun. Three stars for the bar, five four the games, four overall.

Food was delicious, our server was so sweet and smiling the whole time I swear. Lumpy's ( that name still cracks me up) on a the lake and mega neon signs to stimulate anyone for eye candy while you wait for your food. I ordered the cod sandwich. I asked for no cheese but had no idea how humongous that thing would be. Really enough to split but I don't really love to share . It was one long piece of fish fried and heavy duty style. Also the local blueberry wheat beer was a true gem of a find. Don't always go with the same thought of less than 4 star don't bother. If we did we never would have tried this place and we all loved our meals.

We sat there for 20 minutes without anybody acknowledging we were there. Perhaps they were understaffed, but at least offer us some drinks and say hey we'll get you as soon as we can. Then I went to the bar to get some drinks i waited there 10 minutes before someone showed up. Next the bartender never acknowledged me again and proceeded to cash out some tickets. After a total of 30 minutes, we decided to just leave. Our money wasn't good enough for them and we probably won't try to visit again. Plus, they're never open anyway.

It was a Friday night October 2025 and was very busy! The wait staff and bartenders were flying! We had parmesan cod and it was delicious! We also ordered a side of cheese curds. They were actually wedges and probably some of the best we've ever had! We saw an old menu and prices on-line so we were quite surprised by the hike in price. Our parmesan cod was $18. However it would not deter us from going again. The food and service was very good. By the time we left at 7pm it was standing room only. Definitely doing something right. Had a hard time paying our bill at the bar because it was extremely busy. I think like all restaurants now it's hard to find help, you just need to pack your patience. All in all it was an excellent experience!
