I love going to Kick Axe. I've been there multiple times with friends and it's always a great experience. The people there are very welcoming, the instructors are very patient. I love that while waiting you can play board games or take pictures around the many signs. I had the pulled pork sandwich and it was so good! The signs all over makes the place picture worthy and makes you giggle! I recommend this place for girls night out, date night or when your friends are in town! read more

Had a group of friends here. On the day of we found out one of our friends was sick with covid and couldn't make it. The place was completely empty and they wouldn't give us a refund for the person who was sick. They had even gone to the doctor. Definitely do not recommend this place based on how they treat customers. Poor service. Will not be going back. read more

I love Kick Axe. I love it because I love to axe throwing. I went to a fellow Yelpers axe throwing bio celebration back in February and since then I was hooked. Since that one time I've tried another ace throwing location that I will not name and it was not up to par. My coworkers organized a group event here at kick axe and I fell in love. The decor, the instructors, the cleanliness of the location and the fact that they change the boards often is what sold me. The pricing per session is about $38/39 for 1.5 hours. If you have a larger group (12) you'll receive your own lane. Light snacks (pizza) is sold here and they have lots of beer and canned Rosé. Unfortunately it is not BYOB like other axe throwing locations but the drink prices are reasonable. I've been here probably 4 times in the last year and I recently celebrated my birthday with a group of 23 other friends here. I wanted to share my love of axe throwing with my closest friends. The only complaint I have about this location is the fact that there are no fans or some kind of air conditioning system. I've been here in just about every season and I'm always sweating. Granted yes I'm performing a physical activity but there is never any air circulation. Besides that this place is perrdr to me. I will 100% return for more axe throwing and who knows maybe I'll join a league or something. read more

Need to take out some aggression? Come here and throw some axes! Came here on a much needed night out with some friends and we all had a blast including me, who is the most un-athletic person ever. They have covid protocols in place to check vaccine cards with your ID. They also have beer and wine along with some finger food you can order so it's great to just hang and chill. The staff is SUPER friendly and just absolutely amazing. They have a host that will stay with your group, kinda like a tour guide, which we didn't mind at all. He showed us how to throw and was very encouraging and joked around with us to help us relax and have fun. I can definitely see this place being a great small holiday party gathering for smallish companies. It's not that big of a place and their slots fill up fast so make reservations and go throw some axes! read more

Great place to have events. The event is fun in which you and your party play at least three round of games against each other. The instructor will use the initial round to teach the party on how to throw axes and proper postures for throwing axes. Later rounds are for fine tuning and to find the best process, force, and dynamic to throw axes. I can see this event as team building event and to build some competition : ) The only con of this place is that they turned the AC so high that it was very cold inside. The super cold feeling wasn't enjoyable... Everything else was fine read more

Who knew throwing axes would be so much fun? Initially, I thought it would be difficult but I got the hang of it pretty fast. I think axe throwing might be my calling in life. We registered online and signed waivers as soon as we entered. They have a bar, snacks, and Table 87 pizza while you wait. The instructors we had were pretty nice and encouraging. Some of the target boards were in pretty bad shape which affected whether or not our axe throws stuck to the board or not, I think. Also, it can get loud and cramped. Also, unless you have a group of 8 or more, you probably have to share two lanes with another group. They make competitions out of each round and it's pretty fun. I would totally do this again. read more

Kick Axe Throwing - Bars Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

First time here and I definitely had a blast. Celebrated my best friend birthday and boy was it fun. Greeted by the most friendly staff, checked in and went straight for drinks and food. One of the staff recommended the Mac and cheese bites and they definitely didn't disappoint very flavorful and full of cheese. The pulled pork sliders were also juicy and smothered with bbq sauce, paired with some crunchy kettle chips. They sell beer and wine so we tried the black girl magic Riesling which was semi sweet alil dry but light. The babe rose assorted flavors were all good, from the red to the white and the rose. Escorted to our lane once we finished our bites went thru instructions and began playing. On our team we had four players so we were paired with another set of four individuals which was cool. We lost but it was still so much fun. If you wanna stay back and lounge they have an area full of games such as large connect four, jenga, uno cards, dominoes and other games. My friends an I played heads up while we rotated games, full of laughs and fun. I highly recommend for groups and or date nights, or even solo. read more

What a fun time! I wasn't sure about axe throwing at first... but I'm always down to try something new and my friends wanted to go so it was perfect when they set it all up. I believe I paid $38 bucks We went on Friday night and it was actually really busy! Although I didn't set it up -my friend did who made reservations ahead of time They tell you to come in 20mins earlier than your time slot to sign paperwork etc You get a staff member per each group who instructs you, keeps score and helps make sure everyone is safe. Ax throwing was easier and more fun than I thought! We played 3 games for our group of 10 and used two booths. Area to place drinks , sit and hang coats/purses They tell you to bring closed shoes - if not they have shoes to borrow ( ehh) .... just wear sneakers or something lol . Wear comfortable clothes . I had to take my hat off because it was getting in the way of me throwing My throws at the end were so much better than my original throws Our staff member Chip was awesome! He was friendly and helped us be safe. He have tips on how to throw better! You could get drinks and food if you want.... I didn't because I knew we were going to grab dinner and drinks after Inside was cute ... like a trendy lumberjack lodge lol You can play games and take photos in the waiting area They have several bathroom stalls I really had a good time.... actually better than I thought . Would definitely try it again. read more

Great place and such a fun activity! The people who work here are super nice, bubbly, and very helpful. The only downside was that our instructor seemed a little overworked and left us hanging towards the end. Overall though, great service, great staff and really reasonable at $35/person! I recommend going earlier in the day as it is less crowded. read more

Kick Axe Throwing - Bars Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Kick Axe Throwing is in Brooklyn right near Prospect Park and Atlantic Terminal. I'd advise to get there at least half an hour before your reservation because street parking can be hard to find and also you have to fill out a few waivers when you're there. Remember to wear closed toed shoes unless you'll be stuck wearing some ugly crocs that they provide. Walk-ins are welcome but if you're coming with a group, make a reservation online! It's $105 and each range includes up to 5 guests (3 on weekdays and 6 on Saturday 4pm and later) and each guest above the included base amount is the normal rate of $35/person. This price doesn't include the tip they suggest to leave the employee who helps you. Check on Google for discount codes before you book! Also, if it's your birthday, you get a drink of choice, use of their birthday axe, and a voucher for free axe throwing on your next visit! This is certainly a fun group activity to do and since groups are separated by ranges, it's spaced out and COVID friendly. The vibes skew towards a young adult crowd. Their employees are really funny and friendly when teaching you how to throw, and I appreciated how they kept it lighthearted even when I completely missed the mark. TLDR: Put on your flannel and feel like a baddie for an hour throwing axes! A great place to go for a group activity with chill vibes and friendly employees! read more

I've never thrown an axe in my life, but thanks to Kick Axe Throwing, I can actually say I've not only done it but I love it. I am not saying I have a natural affinity to throwing these axes, but somehow I find the whole process quite therapeutic. They are pioneers for the NYC area and easily among the best at it. Prior to this amazing Brooklyn spot, I had never heard of axe throwing as a thing. Fast forward close to a year later, there are places opening up left and right with the same premise and now there's even a Yelp dedicated category just for these types of businesses. I don't think one should ever come here without a decent group of people. It's a great way to bond with others, a fun nightlife oriented activity that is beyond the bar (though they do serve adult beverages!), and great way to destress. A few tips: * First timer? Don't worry, there is always a staff person monitoring the space and will act both as an instructor and referee for games. * Try to show up on time, preferably 15 minutes prior. Paying $35 a person and only throwing an axe for a short time can be a real drag. * Groups of 16 will always get their own exclusive area. Smaller groups might be combined with others. Nothing beats networking over axe throwing. * Drinking is not going to help one's game, but it's fun anyway. Food is also available, but outside catering is okay as long as it's been pre-arranged with their special events coordinator. read more

A really fun activity for a group or just a pair. Great vibe. Better than another axe throwing place I've been to, and Michael was a great host. Happy we got assigned to his range. Will definitely go back again. read more

First time visit and first time axe throwing. When me and my guest walked in we were warmly welcomed at the door by the entire staff. I was there on a Tuesday night so I was lucky enough to have a private booth for the time I was there. CJ the axe specialist showed us how to throw the axe and play safely and was very professional about all of it. He stayed with us until we got the hang of things and then circled around to other customers busy always coming back to check in every now and again. There is food but it is mostly snack foods. Don't expect to get a meal here but the food they do have is tasty. We had the mushroom and truffle pizza and the grilled cheese with bacon. Excellent choices. The drinks were under $10 so I was happy about that as well. After axe throwing they also have games set up around the place so you can have some drinks and chat as well. They also have costumes for those who have birthdays and want to take cheeses pics which my date very much loved! Great place for a date, birthday or just hanging out with some friends. Small and large groups can be accommodated because of the wide open space. read more

Janet and her team at Kick Axe were fantastic!!! I was organizing a team building event for my office at a different axe throwing place in Brooklyn which did not go well because they were unresponsive and not accommodating. When I reached out to Kick Axe, Janet messaged back immediately and she worked with us to make the event go off without a hitch. It was fun and exciting for the whole team who came from every borough in NYC and are all looking forward to this type of event again in the future. read more

There's not much that I love more than getting drunk and flinging very sharp, heavy objects around. I used to just do it at my home and the homes of various friends...but since some of us have had children, we've started throwing the children instead, and throwing knives and such has fallen a bit by the wayside. Luckily, Kick Axe is here for me. It's just a good time. The space is comfortable, large, well-decorated in contemporary log-cabin chic, and perfect for throwing some axes. If you've never been, there will be an axpert ready to show you how to do it. After a little instruction, you'll be able to show your friends how much more valuable you'd be in a zombie apocalypse. You definitely have to reserve some space beforehand because they are just about always busy. I would also recommend showing up on time as opposed to getting too drunk at dinner and only having about 15 minutes when you paid for an hour, but that's your call. You might be better off just bringing in Dinosaur BBQ or something else from down the street, as opposed to trying to wrangle your irresponsible friends into a certain place at a certain time. If I have one complaint, it's that it's beer/wine only, and that they only allow you to grab one at a time. That last part may only have been for us though, as SOMEONE was visibly drunk. It may have been me. read more

Kick Axe Throwing - The entrance and bar - Bars Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Fun fun fun! This was my first time ever doing anything like this. I had no idea where I was going so I came pretty dressed up. Thought my heels would hold me back but once you view my pics and videos, you'll see that I dont play around when it comes to challenges lol Ronnie (I hope that is his name) rocked! He had alot of energy and kept us all entertained. I was nervous at first but once I got the hang of things no one could stop me. Shout out to my personal coach who gave me extra tips (Kei) I ended up winning!! There are couches around the place where you can lounge around until it's your time to play. We played jenga while we waited. I believe there were other little games to play too. This is a must. Probably better to go with a group but 1 on 1 was perfect too. They will put you in a group even if you came with 1other person. There are a few different challenges they set you up to do. Everyone gets to practice a few times, then the fun begins. Our little VIP area was cool. There are no cocktail drinks- just beers and wines. read more

Four stars for the fun, three for the food and beer selection. All in, I definitely had a fun time and want to go again, but it's fairly pricey, and then they want tips at the end as well. Don't see that changing, however, as it was crazy busy. The venue itself can accomodate a lot of throwers, and does so in a way that seems as safe as a venue where you throw axes could be. It was hard to move around, however. The axes are in good shape, easy to throw (seemed like everyone playing had at least intermittent success/bullseyes), and our "Axpert" who stayed with us and coached /refereed the entire time was very helpful and nice. The food...? We had a pizza, and it was expensive, tiny and terrible. Not just mediocre...terrible. Notably worse than frozen pizza from the grocery store. I imagine no one ever orders a second.. The beer selection had quite a few options, but mostly ones for a younger crowd. I would like to have seen some more local Brooklyn options as well. read more

What a fantastic location. Kick Axe Throwing is VERY well taken care of establishment. From the second you walk in to the minute you walk out you are surrounded by exactly what you think you would be. Wood, beer, and fabulous fabric, deer heads, and lots of 10" pizza options for $14 each. Don't have enough people in your group to start a tournament? No problem! Kick Ass Throwing will assemble a tourney for you! 1. Price: $$-$$$ 2. Tipping $: Remember to bring cash to bring your "Axepert" or individual who leads your tournament. There is no where for you to leave a credit card tip! 3. Food: 10" Pizza's and snacks galore! 4. Beer/Wine: Great list of beers and wines to enjoy while you're kicking axe. You CAN drink while you throw! 5. MUST WEAR CLOSED TOED SHOES. If you do not they have bins of shoes labeled, "shoes of shame" that you are welcome to. No one is turned away. The shoes of shame aren't fashionable but they are comfortable! If you're coming from the office in heals- fear not! Overall, a great place for a birthday, bachelorette or bachelor party, or a night out after a long day at the office. Two axes up!! read more

Went on a Friday night - had to have a reservation beforehand but a great place for date night! We got grouped with another couple but still had a lot of fun! There is a bar and you can order drinks on your phone or at the bar. While you wait, there are plenty of tables and games to chill even if you're not axe throwing! read more

My friends and I checked this place out on a whim and were pleasantly surprised by the experience. The biggest highlight was the outstanding service and guidance from Jazmine, who was our designated staff member for the night. Despite a few beginners in our group, Jazmine displayed incredible kindness, humor, and professionalism until even us newcomers felt comfortable throwing. Overall we had a lot of fun and felt really safe. While the Harry Potter theme wasn't our cup of tea, the rest of the venue's decor, furniture, and overall vibe were spot on. Everything from the equipment to the facility was clean and well-maintained. It wasn't far from the train and there was good food around so it made for a good night out. The price was reasonable given the location. We'll definitely be back, hopefully with Jazmine as our guide! read more

K was our axepert and they were super fun! They kept our group engaged and we had such a good time with them

Its often so hard to find adult activities in NYC besides drinking, eating, dancing, or movies. Thats why I appreciate Kick Axe so much. Its fun and its different and its really cool. First off throwing axes is a lot safer than youd imagine. Its intimidating at first (especially if you thoroughly read the waiver you sign). However, once you get to it, its pretty safe. Ive been twice and havent seen the slightest hiccup. The staff are super cool and super friendly. They keep the games moving along and make sure everyone is being safe. They offer tips and techniques. There is a lounge area that is more like a cabin decked out in flannel and leather with rugs and fireplaces to boot. There is a beer and wine bar and they offer some pizzas I didnt try thatll run ya $14. Its not the cheapest experience at 35/hr per person but it is unique and worth trying at least once. Over the course of the hour you'll probably get 40 or so tosses as your group rotates. So you have time to drink and eat and chat. PS. Kenny G was a great Axpert. read more

Kick Axe Throwing - Hit a double skill shot to end the game lovers and champions lol - Bars Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

We totally kicked your axe! If you're looking for a fun night out in Brooklyn, check out Kick Axe. Now, I know these places are casually popping up everywhere that there's a hipster, however, some of the other spots kind of have that, "oh, here's a garage... I have some plywood lying around, some spray paint and an axe from my grandfathers tool kit", appeal. Could be cool, but nah... not when Kick Axe is in town. The vibe is chill, the space is well decorated... it's a fun time overall. Wear your flannel - look the part and channel your inner lumberjack. The only downside is it's a little pricey for the hour you get to toss them axes. Axes? Axi? Axé? Call it what you will... you're in Brooklyn - anything goes. Tips: - make a reservation - tip your axe-throwing teacher read more

This place is great and a lot of fun. This is a perfect place to host a party, work event, or just a social gathering to try it out. It is a lot harder than it looks! It's definitely also a lot safer than it looks too. You definitely have to be pretty uncoordinated to hurt anyway, so don't be scared and come have a good time here! They serve tasty drinks/alcohol here and their pizza here is really good. They love their axe puns here and it just adds to their charm and silliness. Highly recommend this place. read more

Came here with two friends on a Saturday afternoon and had a blast! The vibe of this place is hunting lodge meets hipster Brooklyn bar meets axe throwing range. We arrived 30 minutes early (as our email instructions told us to), signed waivers, and hung around in the bar/couch area while we waited. We were paired with another group for a total of 10 people in our lane. We had a practice round where our "Ax-pert" showed us how to throw and gave us tips. Then we split into two teams and did several rounds of competitions. The games got harder, involving more precision as time went on! Our total axe throwing time was about an hour and 15 minutes. The overall experience was so much fun. Our Ax-pert was awesome and helpful (be sure to tip at the end!) There's even a photo backdrop with fun props for you to memorialize your axe throwing experience. This is a great place to go with a group or for a party. Just be sure to reserve in advance on weekends since it gets crowded. read more

I finally came back the other week for a birthday party after experiencing this firsthand through a Yelp event. Yes, it's ridiculous amounts of fun. There are however pros and cons like most fun activities. Advice: You have to wear proper foot gear (no open toed shoes are allowed), wear comfortable clothes that allow full range of movement. You can come buzzed or come sober (they have plenty of solid canned beer options for like $5 or $6) and then wine if you're bougie. Weird side note: the bar only accepts credit. Not entirely sure why because I only wanted to buy 1 drink and charging $6 seemed kind of silly. Definitely come on time though or 15 minutes early so that your group can check in and sign waivers. I had a lot of fun my second time around. The instructor was slightly more informative because I think they were less overwhelmed with hundreds of yelpers taking over the spot but it still was really packed. I learned that I apparently throw like a ballerina and you really need to just plant your feet and lunge your body a bit forward with gusto while throwing an ax. I'm so ashamed that being from the Midwest, I really truly suck at ax throwing lol. We had two lanes reserved and a fairly large group. The cons of this are that if you have 8-12 people per lane - you aren't going to get a lot of throwing time in. You only have about an hour to throw because the instruction and checking in process takes together 20-30 minutes (come early). Only two people are allowed to throw per lane and you have 3 throws a person with careful instructions on how to throw better in between. I probably got in about 4-5 turns but for $35 plus tip for your instructor and tax I keep weighing back and forth if its worth it. It's definitely one of the most unique and fun activities I've ever done in my life but if I go again I'd go with a smaller group of maybe no more than 8 people to maximize my levels of fun. Don't forget on your way out there is a fun photo set up opportunity with lumberjack props, etc. read more

Throwing axes is such a unique and fun thing to do on a Saturday night in Brooklyn. Thanks to Yelp, I found this spot and had loads of fun! Many people come in groups for small parties, but if you're planning on doing a date night (which I did) with you and your partner alone, not to worry, you'll be put in a group with other people. Our axepert was Brandon and he was AWESOME! he got our teams pumped up and was great at giving us tips on how to aim and target. At first, I was nervous and felt a little unsettled. This was my first time throwing an axe. I have not one once of athleticism in my body, so I was super scared that I would get injured or make a silly mistake. After a few motivational speeches from Brandon, I finally started hitting the board and scoring some points for my team. Once you get over the fear, it's smooth sailing from there! Kick Axe is great for small parties, date nights, and birthdays, small groups and big groups as well. I took my fiancé here for his birthday and he had such a blast. We'll definitely be back again this summer to get our axe throwing back on! read more

Went to Kick Axe for a friend's birthday party and had a great time! Cady was an excellent instructor and guide and by the end all of us were hitting the board almost every time. Our final game even ended in a tie with both sides getting a bullseye at once! I definitely recommend this for events as it's a great low key way to spend time as a group. read more

I'm giving it 3 stars because the front desk guy and host was very nice. The host was super cool. Cool game to play with groups. Cozy area to play board games while you wait or after you play Only reason I won't give it a 5 star is because the food sucked and was overpriced for the quality. Pizza was not cooked. Mac bites look like fake nuggets a stuffed with cheese. I get why real liquor isn't served cause you are throwing an axe but the drinks sucked also. Low sugar margaritas in a can was yuck. Just order a beer or soft drink if you go. read more
