    They have games

    Didn't think it was my cup of tea. But after I got into it we had a good group we were paired with. It was . Great service and point person was fun. Never had beer usually don't like the bitter taste. But the bar tender helped me choose. Was not a fan of the pizza. Pizza (margherita) yuck. .

    This is probably my 3rd time here and I always forget to make a review so I'm getting to it now! The vibe of this place is always so welcoming. From the decor to the friendly staff. Decent drink options, I also tried the sangria which I can't wait to come back for and drink on a warmer day. They teach you how to throw the axe and do some practice rounds before the game begin! I like the option of booking a private lane or you will be mixed in with people but that's what makes it fun!

    Great experience again for a birthday celebration. The birthday axe was a new apparatus to be used, requiring only a single arm and 3 points of contact. Our board was somewhat beat up and on its last legs, but we still had fun. Able to play in our range solely with a group of 5 as it wasn't that crowded 1 pm on a Sunday.

    I brought my daughters on a Sunday, it was fantastic we had the place to ourselves for quite sometime (got there right after opening). The staff were very nice and our coach I believe her name was Piper was great very patient with us. I would recommend

    Delicious mushroom and garlic flatbread

    Reservations are definitely recommended. Although I made the res for 4 pm (the time they open) for 4 people and tickets are paid during the booking in advance btw. Unfortunately, 1 person in our group wasn't able to make it. And we were told that since it was last minute, we couldn't get his portion refunded. =( Upon walking in, we were greeted w a warm welcome by the bartender Lawrence. Check-in by scanning the barcode they had in the front by the bar. Which was breeze. Afterward, we were introduced to Miller. Miller was our instructor the entire time. Since this was mine and another girlfriends' first-time axe throwing, he went over the safety instructions and showed us how to handle the axe. We had a few practice throws. Miller made the experience so fun and enjoyable, once our competitive game started. AND - We all managed to hit the bulls-eye! Awesome sauce! The entire game took a little over 1 hr, and we practically had the entire place to ourselves since we decided to come super early. Axe throwing is definitely an upper body workout. My shoulders are sore in a good way. They have tables to play Jenga and checkers. There was also a props section for photo ops. Shared a mushroom and garlic flatbread, which was so delicious. The crust was crispy, and the flatbread was so cheesy and garlicky. Yummy! Will be back and def recommend you to check out this establishment.

    Great ambiance.

    Team bonding with co-workers, alcohol, food, and lethal weaponry!!!!! Yay I'm in!!!! The instructor was patient and fun. I was hitting bullseyes before I left. Light drinks, Rosé, Corona, and lots of laughter. Empanadas were ok. Margherita pizza could have stayed in the oven a little longer. Props for pictures (including axes) and lots of board games. Definitely a great way to spend an sunny evening in Red Hook/Gowanus/Park Slope. Five stars for the instructor providing a wonderful experience and making it look soooooo easy.

    Such a great spot in the Gowanus area for a friends night out or even a date night. The prices are fair in my opinion and the service is great. The staff is super friendly and helpful to explain how the game works. The environment is laid-back and allows you to meet other people while you're there. After your session of axe throwing there are games to play if you so choose. The food we ordered was not good at all, however, if that were to improve, this place would be five stars.

    HEY!! If you're looking for some fun this unique place is for you! Nice location in the historic Williamsburg , Brooklyn New York around warehouses. Axe throwing is a fun activity, using real metal axes and a wooden dart board, in separated booths for protection. You must sign waiver to participate in axe throwing. You're given a very thorough explanation of how to use Axe, demonstration of experience by the wonderful staff. Your instructor will even suggest fun friendly competition between booths of Axe throwers. We competed against a couple we didn't know and had so much fun! 10/10 Food/drinks - Price range is $-$$ you can order food and drinks to your axe throwing booth. There's a full bar opposite of axe booths. Tips- There's an assortment of board games to play ( JENGA , Puzzles , playing cards, etc) Optional - Wear comfortable clothes casual to throw and be active. (Think bowling or golf). There's closed toe crocs available for those that wear open toe shoes. Parking is available on street. Reservations accepted and suggested ! :)

    Kick Axe lives up to its expectations of all out fun. I enjoyed every minute of being here with my friends. We did not have a reservation and did a walk in but they accommodated us within five minutes of being there. It was a very smooth and easy check in process. Apart from the axe throwing area they are a socializing area with various seats and games that can be played. There was bear pong, connect four, hungry hippos, jenga, sorry etc. They give you up to a hour and a half of axe throwing, the instructors are very detailed in explaining what you should do and shouldn't do for your own safety. They do not offer hard liquor as well it's for your own safety, but they do have beers, wines and canned light in alcoholic beverages. There's various finger food options as well although I did not eat anything. The axe throwing was very eventful and we played various axe throwing games to compete against each other. After axe throwing we sat around and played Jenga and connect four. I love the overall open space concept and lounge are they offer even if you aren't there to axe throw. I must say they as well have a great music selection that's played while you're there. Overall I'll rate my experience a 10/10 and will be coming back.

    Olivia N.

    Overall rating: 4.9 I've been here a few times, once on a date when it opened a few years ago and once with a group of friends. It's a great experience if you've never been Axe throwing before. The food is also very surprisingly good! Like wow, I'm very surprised. I always wish this wasn't so far away from the subway, but what can you do. I'm not sure if I'll go again because it is a very specific experience. But I recommend giving a try if you're looking for something different.

    Let's get this out of the way now -- I barely kicked axe but I had an axe-hilarating time! Miller, an Axe employee, got me off to a strong start. Miller was super engaging and friendly. He was also patient because I tell you, connecting the axe to the target took a hot minute. I eventually was nailing those targets with his guidance and instructions. Then it went all downhill and my aim wasn't as sharp. My axe landed mainly on the ground haha but I still had a ton of fun. I would definitely throw axes again.

    Kicking axe!

    What a fun time! I once had a golf club slip out of my hand and go sailing 50 feet away (no one was hurt, except my ego) so I had reservations about axe throwing. But I'm so glad I did this. It's like darts, except ya know, with sharp, bladed axes. The Kick Axe space was divided into three main areas. Shane, who was the manager, greeted us at the patio and told us that this is the first venue of its kind in the US to get a liquor license, a point not lost to us when we walked in through the front doors, into the bar. The open space in front of it had seating and felt like a mountainside lodge complete with a fake deer's head. There were axe puns on the wall to keep things fun, a performer singing acoustic covers of pop hits, and lots of games (board games, a huge connect four, a giant Jenga etc.) throughout. The back part had the courts, 10 stations with 2 axe lanes each. Mad props to our instructor Leivi who taught several of us noobs how to throw it down. He was really cool and down-to-earth. We practiced both two-handed and one-handed throws and by the end of the evening, most of us had gotten bullseyes. We put our skills to a test and played a game, the first team to reach 60 points wins. Nothing like friendly competition to make things even more fun. You can say I had an axellent time! Pun intended.

    Ask the Community - Kick Axe Throwing

    Are closed toes crocs ok, like the regular style?

    Yes, closed-toed crocs are accepted.

    Hi Ginger .. Do you happen to have gift certificates available? I wouldn't even know when to make a reservation for my brothers family, but I want to give them a couple of hours there as a birthday gift.

    Hi there. Yes, we do have gift certificates! You purchase on our website, right here: https://www.kickaxe.com/gifts-bk. Gift certificates can be delivered to your phone or email address. All gift cards & reward points can be used at all of our… Read more

    If bringing a group does everyone still need to be vaccinated?

    No, they do not.

    How does this work if you're under 21? Is there a time it's closed off to underage customers?

    Hi! We do not close off at a certain time to those under 21. Our bartender and/or Axe Pros will check IDs at the time of ordering any alcoholic beverage(s).

    What kind of music is played? And can you walk-in or is a reservation required?

    We use a music streaming service and we always recommend reservations by booking online at www.kickaxe.com.

    Has anyone ever gotten hurt here?

    Never! Our Axe Pros go over safety and training with you before you throw and we ensure safety as our #1 priority.

    Is the 1.25 hour option enough time for a group of 12?

    Hi Candra! We recommend either getting two ranges for that many people or doubling the time, although we do allow that many on one range as long as you know you will each not be able to throw as much. Feel free to reach out to us at info@kickaxe.com… Read more

    Has anyone done the party packages? What are the taxes and fees? Is 1 hour and 35 mins enough time? That only works out to 15 mins of throwing per person for a party of 6. Is the 2.75 package too long for six? (So many questions!!)

    I did the party package for my son's 9th birthday. We had 12 guests total and a private range, they throw in pairs, so It was a short time for throwing, but with kids it was right for us, adults might want a longer time. We had enough time for food… Read more

    Can someone post the prices please?

    The cost is $35+tax/pp for the 75 minute range reservation and you pay when you make the reservation online. Normal reservations are fully refundable up until 24 hours before.

    Are there age limits at night?

    We recommend that everyone is 7 years or age or older and must be accompanied with an adult. Thanks for asking and we hope to see you soon.

We picked a location that was the midpoint between my home in Connecticut and my parents' home in New York City. We couldn't have chosen a better place than Banana Cabana! From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by a staff member (I wish I had caught her name) who greeted us with a big smile. She gave an excellent demonstration on how to properly throw an axe, let us practice a few rounds, and provided helpful tips on positioning our arms and legs for the best results. The venue had a great drink menu with plenty of options, including non-alcoholic beer. We also loved the variety of games available Battleship was a favorite! Another fun touch was the TouchTunes music system, where we could purchase credits and play our favorite songs. We definitely took advantage of that! Overall, we had an amazing time and will 100% be returning if we're ever in the area again.

We drove a long distance to we went in to learn to throw some Axes. They seemed a bit short staff but in good spirits I saw a tiki bar and they had scannable QR codes on the tables but they bar and food options where closed as well so missed opportunity there. Axe throwing definitely will make you thirsty we did the 1 Hr option and would've signed up for more if there was a food and beverage option there. Only thing I didn't like is you pay for an hour but the staff started the timer before hand so we didn't get an actual hour they started the timer and then explained the rules to us and showed us how to throw it would make sense to do the tutorial and then start the timer once we are ready or once they are done explaining. All in all it was a fun experience with our group of friends definitely fun to do.
