This was a great activity for my friends and I. We had so much fun, the hour went by so fast. A stress reliever that is super satisfying. Definitely coming back. Omar, our instructor was awesome. He gave great suggestions and was funny. Just FYI, get drinks prior to your axe time because the bar is the only way to get drinks and you don't want to waste all your time trying to get a drink during your hour. Or like my group, alternate a bar person who isn't throwing =). read more

Kick Axe Throwing - Bars Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

My husband and I came here for date night. This is something that I've been wanting to do. I was a little put off once I read some of the other reviews when I heard that if your party is not 8 or more they put you in a "lane" with strangers and I was going to cancel for this fact alone, but it was too late. We came on a Saturday at 6:30. We filled out the waiver prior to by scanning the QR code, you can view the menu by scanning the QR code also. When it was our turn we thought we lucked up bc we were the only ones in the lane, but while the instructor was going over the rules a party of 4 strangers and another party of 2 strangers joined us and I was immediately irritated. However we sucked it up and we're good sports about it but we really wanted to be in our own lane on date night. Jay our instructor was AWESOME!! He was attentive and he took his time explaining the rules and even gave us tips. However we were told to get into teams of 2 and make up a team name to compete, once again I was irritated. I didn't want to keep score and I wasn't in a competitive mood and I really didn't want to socialize with strangers. You have to order your food and drinks from the bar, which means you have to take time away from your game to go order food so a suggestion would be to get there early to eat or to order. We were told you can not order from the lane. SUGGESTION-let guests order from the lane (since we can order from our phones anyway) and have the customer put what lane they are in and have the food delivered to the lane. SUGGESTION-the handles of the axes should be sanitized between parties-I didn't see this happen at all. SUGGESTION- have the bartenders wear gloves while handling lemons/limes as I saw the female bartender squeezing lemons and limes in drinks with her bare hands after handling money and credit/debit cards. SUGGESTION-the whole stranger thing. I would have happily paid extra to have a lane to myself. For the things mentioned I probably won't be back unless I have a party of 8 ppl I know. With all that being said we did have a good time and I enjoyed doing something new. read more

Super fun activity if you're feeling adventurous! Or if you're stressed and need to throw some axes lol. Interior was very cute and beautifully decorated. Nice service and fun finger foods to eat. There are guides at every section to help instruct you on how to throw and be safe. Would come again! read more

I came here with a friend on a Saturday afternoon for a fun adventure and maybe a few drinks - we ended up having a great time but there were a few things I think could have gone better. Parking wasn't terrible we were about a block over and it was an easy walk and we arrived for our reservation about 10 minutes early just to be safe. We grabbed a drink and were instructed to wait to be called, after about 8 minutes after our reservation time (this matters because it's an hour reservation for the lanes) we had to ask what was the hold up and it seemed as if we were forgotten about. Once at the lane we were paired with a group of 4 strangers which was not expected as we thought larger parties would have their own lane and smaller groups their own so everyone would have equal time and chances but we shrugged it off. Our lane instructor was nice and helpful but my only complaint is the "training" portion seemed to last longer than desired again cutting into our already limited time. Overall it was an okay experience, the place is well decorated and it is a fun environment but I'm not sure if I would be so quick to return unless maybe I had a larger group. read more

This place is a JOKE! Not only do they discourage bad reviews - when they earned them - but they have weird accounts reply to you, acting like they "handled" the problem, when in reality my boyfriend had to talk to a manager and I can't even reply to this BOT acting like everything is fine!!! DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE. Horrible bar. Not to mention, they didn't address the "rocks" charges their business engages in -- only our receipt, because we thought it was insane. Not everyone can afford this nonsense. CHECK YOUR RECEIPTS HERE. read more

Kick Axe Throwing - Bars Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

As someone who has been axe throwing before at different places, Kick Axe might be my favorite. Our group of 10 arrived and easily were able to sign waivers via QR code and were even able to start our session a few minutes early. We had booked a private lane, although right at 12:15PM on a Saturday it wasn't too crowded anyways. We were able to learn how to best throw it and even try out double axe throwing. It was so fun and we even did a little competition at the end! Our instructor was Omar who I highly highly recommend - he gave us some great throwing tips and how to get a bullseye! The food and drinks were good as well - the mimosas were especially a hit. We tried pretty much half the menu, and although the food is clearly just frozen and re-fried (I saw them unbagging it in the kitchen) it is still very good. Only room for improvement is adding some beer cheese to the corn dog bites! The vibes are also immaculate - neon everywhere and cute lounges to sit in and chill while drinking/eating. I will definitely be back if I'm looking for a fun event with a group! read more

We had a great time! Our group had never done this before and every single staff member we spoke with was so friendly, completely focused on our experience, and super helpful! Omar was our coach, he was funny, knowledgeable, very skilled with an axe and made the experience so fun! There are other options in DC for axe throwing but the atmosphere, the staff, and the food was by far in my opinion so great, I can't see how I'd go anywhere else. We picked this place because of the reviews, the bar, the pricing, and the atmosphere. It was really well laid out, lots of places to sit and hang out and I really want to emphasize the staff's dedication to everyone's experience. And, this place was CLEAN! Sometimes the online advertisement with its professional photos don't align with the reality of the experience... this was not like that! I would highly recommend this place! We invited friends from out of town and not only was the experience of axe throwing by itself pretty amazing, the facility was impressive, the food was incredible, and the whole staff were the friendliest customer experience focused group I've come across in a very long time! read more

great service from jerome, learned something new and had fun. Good time overall, will recommend this to friends

If you're looking for a fun hangout with friends, family or a significant other then this is a great place to go. They don't start checking ID's until 9PM if you want to bring your kids. Kick Axe is located below Throw Social. When you walk in there is a bar where you can order food and drinks and they have a few lounge areas. Before you axe throw you check in and sign a waiver. After that a lane attendant walks you to your lane, explains the rules and checks on you frequently to ensure that you are enjoying your experience. My friend and I went on a Friday at 9:30PM and we had an entire lane to ourselves. There is a 24HR parking deck diagonal from Kick Axe so you don't have to worry about street parking. read more

Such a fun experience and environment! Went with a group which made for a great social/bonding activity. Staff was friendly and accommodating - bartenders were easy going and flexible with requests and our axe "trainer" (??) Manny was awesome with our group, high energy and really eager to help all of us get the hang of it. read more

This is my first time going to Kick Axe and let me just say I will be back! I have gone to other axe throwing places in DC but Kick Axe is officially the spot I'm going to for date night and friend night. Customer service is great. The drinks are potent. COVID precautions are in effect (mask required) and OMAR COOPER, our axe professional, was on point! He made the experience so much more fun. He was professional and personable. I couldn't have asked for a better experience :) read more

So much fun! Definitely perfect for a girls night out or date night! The service is great. Kenla makes a mean blueberry margarita Eric was our range guy. He gave superb guidance making sure we all came out alive. Lol Great vibes, good energy, lots of IG worthy backgrounds to capture your night out in the city. Check it out! read more

Kick Axe Throwing - I finall got the hang of it - Bars Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

The atmosphere of this place is very cool and exciting - like an arcade for grown folks. The drinks aren't that good, but they are strong. Everything is pricey, however. We did go on one of their reopening weekends, and they were severely understaffed. So shoutout to the workers that did their absolute best. Just not sure if the value received is worth the steep price. read more

Kick Axe Throwing - Bar area - Bars Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Where do I start? My whole experience here was disgusting! My friend came all the way from Baltimore and I was super excited to show her this place and trauma-bond by throwing some axes. We arrived around 0740pm and was told they will be ready for us at 0900pm. Cool, we decided to get some drinks and food at the bar. Male Bartender ignores us for 15mins and keeps attending to other guests that came after us. I draw his attention to this and he gives us attitude and continue to ignore us. At this point, we realized he was just being an asshole and walked away to the female bartender who was sweet and assisted us immediately, the only positive part of our night. It's 9pm and our buzzer isn't buzzing so we walk to the lady and let her know that we have a 9pm scheduled, she tells me they are working on it and to give her a few minutes. I go back at 9:10 and she informs me they're fixing one of the sections for us and to give her 2 minutes. The whole time, she's calling other people. I go back at 9:15 and her story is that they're backed up and one of the sections is not working and she can't place us in a section that's not working. Okay, so why didn't ahe tell me this from the beginning and lied? At this point, we just asked for a refund and left. Never going back! read more

We attended kick axe to take my nephew out that was visiting from out of town. We had a great time and there were numerous activities for us to do. After kick axe we grabbed some food and sat down in the multi-sitting area and had a great time playing some rounds of Jenga, talking, and laughing. read more

Came to Kick Axe for a birthday celebration and everyone in our party of four enjoyed the experience. The groups were evenly spaced out and hand sanitizers were available everywhere providing for a safe and secure place to have fun. The place is decorated beautifully and is perfect for pictures! We loved the cabin/homely ski resort aesthetic of the place. I would also recommend checking out the second floor of the venue- Throw Social. It has a fun summer flair and gorgeous decorations. read more

Friday night vibe: Live Band until 11:30 then live DJ. Jumbo games & aesthetic. 3 floors. Jerk Wings smack.

Sooo fun! The decor is camping lumberjack vibes, which is so great. The staff was very nice. Our axe throwing instructor was Kyle, he was knowledgeable and patient. As for drinks and food, definitely would recommend the Mac and cheese bites and the Long Beach. To reserve a range it's around $30/person with a 1 hour limit (which they enforce, nicely). Due to covid, the ranges are fully private. read more

I really liked axe throwing here, but I have given this four stars because the drinks are sub par. The sangria was awful and tasted more like water, as well as a basic tequila soda. I'm not sure they put any alcohol in either of them honestly. The service is so-so, but the actual set up and environment is gorgeous and a lot of fun. I have gone twice now because the axe throwing is a great way to relieve stress! read more

Seamus is amazing!! He was so nice and accommodating. The axe throwing was super fun for all ages. Highly HIGHLY recommend
