I've been to quite a few axe throwing establishments, so needless to say I was incredibly excited to come throw here, considering I live out of state. Pros: Insanely spacious, lots of bays available. No reservation needed and staff were friendly. Cons: not only were the axes insanely dull (as you can see pictured,) the boards were so eaten away that even if the axe was sharp, it would be hard to get it to stick. Even the staff took a few tries to get it to stick to the board. They tried watering the boards and it didn't help at all. Id say out of 50 throws, maybe 10 actually stuck. (Picture of the board also attached). The bounce in their mats were insanely dangerous. I'd say 85% of the time the axe came right back to our feet onto the tile. There was no interaction from the staff at all once we started. No games to play, no points explanation, nothing to keep score with. The whole point of axe throwing, similar to darts, is to keep score. Most places have a white board of some sort. In the bay next to us, someone threw an axe at the board and the entire board fell. Overall, I'd never come back to this location. Its certainly not worth the money. You do more bending down to pick your axe up off the ground than anything else. I'd be willing to go out on a limb and say the owners most likely don't have a passion for axe throwing and simply opened up the establishment because it was trendy and would make them money. It's possible that I came on a bad day, but I don't even live in the area to go back a second time.
Walked in on a Saturday night around 8pm and they were almost wide open, only two other couples using the other lanes. They checked us in quickly and gave us a mini tutorial since it was our first time throwing axes. The place is clean and with lots of seating. The bar is also pretty long, though the bar drink menu is a little short. Classic cocktails and some draft beers. We each got an ax so it was nice not having to share one. Some of the wood panels were a little worn so it was harder to get the ax to stick so we ended up swapping lanes but otherwise it was a lot of fun. They give you a sheet with different types of games and we loved the tic tac toe one. If definitely got tiring after an hour but I couldve enjoyed a second session. It's a great spot for a casual date! I would come back if I'm in the area.
Went here for my daughter's birthday! Who knew I birthed little Lizzie Borden! She was on fire getting bullseye after bullseye. You make a reservation online which can get confusing when entering the amount of people in your group. It is 44.00 per person and you have to pay a reservation fee to set. Apparently I had only paid for 4 people not 5. Anyways we had an excellent time. It was warm inside but outside was 114. We did have a wall of windows behind us. The staff was good the boards might need a little attention there were several loose ones and giant chunks coming out. I don't think that is supposed to happen. All in all we had fun and that's what counts. Parking can get crazy especially in west gate. They charge you either in an app or by vendor.
Such a fun place, and an excellent addition to Westgate! The drinks are awesome, the staff has great customer service and even gives you a crash course in Axe Throwing before you start on your lane. Wether you come for date night or as a group with friends, you won't be dissatisfied by your experience here.
My second being here and I always have a great time here! However, it is more on the pricey side. We got our section right away since reservations are highly recommended. We had a nice waitress take care of us when we asked for waters. We didn't order any food so I can't mention anything there. The place does have that woods/lumberjack feel to it for sure. My party of four had a blast considering they never been here before. Overall, very fun place to visit in Glendale. Something different, yet fun.
We have been to LumberjAxes so many times, so I had to give a review. It's so fun!! Make sure you wear close-toed shoes, as well. They are located in westgate, it's upstairs- close to where Fat Tuesdays is and the Desert Diamond arena. When you get there, make sure you arrive early to give time to the practice, bc once the clock starts you're on the clock. The attendant will go over safety and allow you to practice. There's diff kinds of games you can play and you could be there all day really with all the diff options. They have a great bar with tons of options and offer food as well. Price wise, not the cheapest, but worth it to splurge on a fun date night or experience. I've celebrated one of my bdays here too. Go check them out! And...they have pretty cool tee shirts for sale too!
Throwing axes can be fun but eat somewhere else. The food and the drinks are not good, service is good.
Brutally honest. Had a great time, but the prices are way too high and the axes need more maintenance. Never thought we would actually have to reflect on the waiver we signed because an axe handle had a metal bur on it. Throwing the axe it sliced one of my party members hands, when we brought it up to the counter, they tried to help with some band-aides, but were very nonchalant about the injury. Truly makes me reconsider going to this location again. Also, paying a deposit... on your email receipt will say 4 people, but it's actually the price for 2 people. The whole paying per person and not just for a booth based on hours is a total scam. Now that I've written this far, find a cheaper place, you'll have just as much fun and not feel like you've been taken advantage of.
The last star is missing do to the prices. The staff was beyond helpful and very patient while teaching everyone the process. Crazy to think that there is a bar ready to serve while throwing Axes. Lumberjacks are pretty badass, can't imagine how they did it with much larger axes. The drinks were nice and the space was clean and well maintained. Plenty of room to move around. Super fun and you actually get a little bit of a workout. Once you get the hang of it becomes even more fun. I recommend it if your looking for something different to do with friends or a date. Will try the food next time.
If you want to have fun at a place doing something new, I definitely recommend axe throwing. It's one of those activities that you could probably spend hours doing and easily lost track of time. Our instructor was awesome and the food and drinks were on point....so try it out. If you don't have fun here, get a therapist. Even if you suck...don't take it too seriously and laugh at your own ridiculousness. I created enough ridiculousness for two parties.
We had such a great time coming here with the family. We did a two hour session and had Spencer as our instructor, he was great! It was our first time there and we look forward to coming back next time.
Such a fun experience!! Never thought I would be interested in throwing an axe before LOL. The staff here is knowledgeable and helpful in teaching you and guiding you if you have any questions. They play fun music and serve drinks for such a vibrant ambiance. I would definitely recommend and definitely return in the future.
Our supervisor took us here for a team building event and it was so much fun. I didn't think throwing an axe at a wall would be very fun but it weirdly is. What you do here is pretty self explanatory. There are targets on the wall and you compete with your friends for the highest score. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful, they stick around to show you techniques and keep score for a while. I will definitely come back again with friends.

We had our daughter's 40th celebration at Lumberjacks. Mostly close family and friends and they all loved it. They felt it was very intimate there. Not real chaotic. Those that did the axe throwing loved it. The food was good, except they were out of Caesar dressing for the Caesar salad and the Nachos were good, but cold when they came out. The customer service was GREAT! Every person that worked there , front desk, bartender, waitress all were so great! The were so flexible and we're great with our entire group! Thanks Lumberjack's! It was a fun night for all! read more

Had a fun time with my family, as we try to see each glass half full. It was our first time into Lumberjacks. so my expectations was a bit to high 'I guess'. Our instructor was ever so quick to demonstrate the rules and how to throw the axe do's and don'ts etc., however she had a great axe that looked so cool with a complete handle. We where excited to get ours. As ironic as it may sound, I have to give it 3 Stars because I believe the equipment should be of outstanding quality for the price we pay and waiver we sign. With that, I will mention that an axe with a piece of handle missing wrapped in black electrical tape, will not be scoring 5 stars. Leaving the Lumberjacks with a blister and sticky black goo all over my palms was not so fun. Maybe it'll be better next time I guess. read more

What to do when you have no idea what to do- Go throw and axe! Didn't know what to expect from this experience and I'm glad we took a chance. Stopped in on a Friday night around 9pm waited about an hour and I wasn't even mad about it- we sat down for some bar food and a couple of drinks. Once a throwing section was ready, we walked over to meet with one of their throwing coaches. He took about 5-10 minutes walking us through the rules and step by step on throwing- guy was really cool and patient, giving me helpful tips, as it took me a few tries to get the axe to stick. After some laughs, a little sweat, and friendly competition, our time came to an end. Anyways, if you're curious, I'd say give it a try! read more

Fun place to de-stress a bit . Went with a group of 8 for hubby's bday. Threw for two hours and everyone had enough time throwing. Definitely a cool experience... not as easy as it looks, but not as hard as you may think. Location was very well maintained and all service staff was great. Bar wasn't too shabby either read more

Hey ho you gotta throw! We had a great time throwing axes after seeing the Coyotes vs Canadiens hockey game in Glendale...great safety briefing and quick lesson before throwing axes ! Good prices on beers and $27.30 for an hour worth of throwing. Clean location, friendly and helpful staff. The one hour time span was the right amount of time, the staff came over to check on us a few times and offer some pointers. Good place for an outing with friends! Have some pictures to share and yes I threw this bullseye read more
