Lourdes V.

What a cool place to hang out and let off some steam .. throwing axes like total bad asses!! We had a work team building event here, what a great time!! I highly recommend this location and it's staff was so friendly and helpful You start off with a safety briefing and then you pair up to practice, before the competition begins.. some rounds you're hitting your mark every time and others the ax is bouncing off the wall and hitting the ground with an embarrassing loud clang plenty of picnic table seating indoors and it's byob in the evening.. They sell water, soda and a small variety of snacks..

What a unique and fun (indoor) thing to do in the Valley! Glad that we get one of the first locations for LumberjAxes in the USA, right before our weather turns up and forces us to hide from the sun. One of my friends tried it recently with just a handful of people, and after seeing his Snaps, I told him we had to get a group of people together ASAP to do this! In total there was 12 of us who got together on a weeknight to be bad axes for a few hours. There's no large signage out front that directs you to the location. It's a little hard to see since it's in a warehouse district. It's a pretty good spot though if they brought in a food truck or two since they don't sell actual food (outside of bags of chips). It's BYOB for drinks, no glass containers. While they have a drop-in rate, I think the best bang for your buck is getting a group together and doing an outing for 2.5 hours. $35 for that includes instruction/how to, round robin flighting, and March Madness-style brackets to determine your group's #1 Lumberjack or Lumberjill. Since they've only been open a few months it wasn't busy on the night we did that. The staff are super nice and chill. I just wish it was a little more organized for the round robin games. Perhaps it might've been because there were only two of them? Unsure. Love that they let us choose the music since it was just our group there. There's a lot of potential in the space if they can get an alcohol permit and some food trucks or some food in general. Maybe things will turn up once their league starts (yes, that's a thing!). Can't wait to see how this place fares!

Clean spot! Really fun. You can tell that they value cleanliness and a great client experience. They also have suggested games that was awesome to play to keep scores, games such as tic tac toe :).

This place is awesome! First timer here!! The check-in/wavers were super easy to complete (via QR code). The Ax coach was a phenomenal teacher and handled himself well with our large group. We were pleasantly surprised at the ability to have catering brought in. Definitely will be back soon (:

Definitely a cool spot. Staff are all super chill. Place is super clean, ample room and it's BYOB, of course so we came fully loaded! Great time

Bar

New location at Tempe Marketplace is amazing with a full bar, restaurant, and lounge seating. Service was fast and super nice! If you're looking for a fun activity inside during the AZ summer this is the place! Recommend the deep dish pizza and prickly pear margarita if your hungry & thirsty!

Our annual friends trip to Scottsdale for Spring Training was dampened when dare I say it, baseball was cancelled. We were still going since there was no refund on our arrangements and we were looking for fun things to do while there. I've done axe throwing once before back home in California and knew my competitive group would love it. After seeing the relatively close distance from our stay to Lumberjaxes, the reviews and affordable price, we went. It was sooo nice to be able to bring your own beer after 4pm, the checkin was quick and friendly, the teaching from our assigned coach (Brendan on day 1, Colin(?) on day 2) was awesome; we decided to go back a few days later! We even bought the trophy to start a tradition of making our annual AZ trip to include a trip to Lumberjaxes and to scribe each trip with the winner of the round robin tournament! Thank you to the entire staff and coaches who made our two visits very memorable and if it wasn't for a baseball-less trip, I probably wouldn't be writing this review. :-)

What a fun night of team building. This location, which is inside and industrial park, is exactly as pictured. You can bring your own booze and your own food. The staff is lovely and keep the fun going. We had a lot of people and they cycled us through very very well! I would definitely return! And apparently they have leagues so if you're good you can throw axes all the time.

They are open to catering, this was for the Wounded Warrior Project that I am a member of.

This was my first time throwing axes and I could not have found a better place than LumberjAxes. Our instructer was amazing and would evaluate our technique and listening to him I was able to get quite good at throwing the Axe's.

Must wear closed-toe shoes! This was my first axe throwing experience and it was an axeciting one. I had a female teach my family how to throw axes. You could do the two hand method or the one hand method. The two hand method was my preferred throwing option because it added stability and allowed me to throw the axe straight. It is a lot more difficult than you think to make the axe land on the target! I don't know if there's an age limit but my 10-year old niece was able to participate in the fun. There's plenty of parking outside. The day I came, the place was supposedly closed for special events or reservations but they took me as a walk-in anyway. They have picnic tables inside on which you could enjoy outside food/drinks. This includes alcohol! The staff were really chill and helped make sure that we were playing safely throughout the entire time. They played a huge variety of music that included country and hip hop. Some of the hip hop songs were explicit so maybe it's not the most appropriate place for a 10-year old. They have a score card that you can use to keep track of your points. This is a great experience for team bonding experiences, bachelor/bachelorette parties, family fun or a casual date. I noticed a group next to me were all wearing plaid and definitely played the lumberjack vibe.

No food at 12:00pm on a Saturday. Boards were soft and torn up from over use. No wonder we were the only ones in there.

You can bring your own food in (we brought a few Costco pizzas) and after 4pm it is BYOB which made it very affordable and easy.

I planned a date activity at Social Axe Throwing for my husband's birthday. Neither of us had ever…read moretried axe throwing before, so we had no idea what to expect...but we ended up having a blast! It was such a fun and unique experience. We arrived on a Tuesday shortly after they opened around 4:15 PM, and we were the only ones there, which worked out perfectly. This may have been why the manager gave us extra attention, showed us how to throw properly, and guided us through three different games. That personal touch really made the experience even better. For two people, I felt that one hour was a good amount of time--though we definitely could've stayed two hours at least if we didn't have other plans. Pricing for one hour is $54, which feels a bit steep, but I was able to snag a deal for $27, which was much more reasonable for a one-hour activity. They also had about five arcade machines set up with free play, so you could easily spend more time there either before or after your axe-throwing session. I didn't realize until after we arrived that they offer food and drinks too...next time, I'd plan for lunch or dinner along with the activity. This place would be great for a team-building event or a group date night. Axe throwing is a bit harder than it looks, but definitely a lot of fun. We enjoyed the different game options, like tic tac toe that made it even more fun. One thing I didn't love: when you arrive, they ask for a credit card to keep on file in case you order food or drinks. Then when we finished and hadn't purchased anything extra, we were asked if we wanted to leave a tip. I found that a little awkward. While the manager was super friendly and helpful (possibly because it was empty--or maybe that's just how they treat all first-timers), I think there should be a better, more subtle way to encourage tipping without putting guests on the spot. I did not let this impact my review.

We went here for my wife's 25th birthday. The staff was super friendly. We had a group of 8 with 6…read morethrowing. They set us up with two lanes. Roy showed us how to throw. We were able to get three games in the hour time slot with minimal screwing around. They had a great beer selection as well and free classic arcade games. Definitely would recommend for something different!

Kinda wanna go back and throw axes with them... It's not just throwing axes. They have a variety of games- tic tac toe was my favorite. I also love that you can upload a pic. Good beer. Didn't they the food. But fun atmosphere. Lots of games outside of throwing. Impossible not to have fun!!

Located in the entertainment district known as High Street, I've been to The Mighty Axe - Phoenix…read more With plenty of bars, restaurants, shops, comedy clubs, coffee shops, and more in the area, High Street is an awesome part of town to go out. I've been to The Mighty Axe twice. Ambiance (4/5): This is part of what I love about The Mighty Axe. It has a cabin feel to it. Despite being in Phoenix, you feel like you've been transported to the mountains. There's some seating at the bar as well as some comfortable seating close to a fireplace. The barstools at the bar don't have back support (which is always a con in my book). The music tends to be solid. All in all, a cool spot. And a casual one at that. Service (4/5): The service tends to be friendly, laidback, and efficient. Just like I like it. Food (N/A): I've been on a liquid diet both times, and to be honest, I'm not even sure if they have food. Drinks (3.5/5): Everyone likes different flavor profiles when it comes to cocktails. The Mighty Axe has a solid list, though one that is not super appealing to my taste. Outside of their cocktail list, they have a full bar. The Mighty Axe, if the name didn't give it away, is both a bar and an axe throwing place. While I haven't done any axe throwing, I've checked out the area where it's located (the back of the bar). And there's even one outside on the small patio. Overall, one of my favorite bars on High Street (I live in Desert Ridge so I've frequented pretty much everywhere in the area).
