    Aiming for the target

    This was my first axe throwing experience so I don't have anything to compare it to, but I had a GREAT time. The staff was very helpful and the registration process was very easy. The self serve taps are a great idea - and they have a good selection of beer and a few mixed drinks, too. Be aware of the price per ounce of the drink you're pouring so you don't have a surprise bill at the end! The axe scoring system is easy to use and it's a fun way to have some friendly competition. It's a small place, so I would highly recommend making reservations online and showing up early.

    Come here for the axes but the racing simulators and VR were super cool! Ron was our throwing instructor and was really cool and gave good instructions. The racing was very life like and not like Mario Kart, I will be back for some F1 racing! The VR seemed really cool but we didn't have time to give it a try. The adult beverages were all on tap and you get a RF card that can be preloaded or just run a tab. They have a good selection of beer or you can get Makers and Coke or Sangria. They also have food that's more pizza and chicken tenders. I had a great time and the staff was very friendly!

    Super fun experience axe throwing for the first time! Jameer was helpful in teaching and funny. He kept coming over and watching our form and chatting with us! He definitely loves his job and made it an even better experience. Definitely would recommend this for anyone looking for a fun time.

    Ovrdrive is so much fun!! I've been here twice - once for the rage room, and once for the axe throwing. Each time, I have had a great experience. The rage room has sledge hammers and bats for you to destroy beer bottles, clay pigeons, and electronics you can get from them! Definitely a huge adrenaline rush and SO much fun. They also let us use a speaker to play music while we smashed things! The axe throwing was also a ton of fun. After a tutorial on how to properly throw the axes, we played 2 different games that definitely brought out our competitive sides!

    Bottom line up front: This place is great for parties, dates, or just passing some time. It was SO much fun! My wife and I stopped by for some Axe Throwing and VR Games. The axe throwing was wonderful. The staff helped us learn the basics and then let us go to it. BTW, my wife totally kicked my butt. There many different axe throwing games to pick from, so it was great. The VR js awesome. It is totally immersive and just so much fun. We played some zombie killing game as a team, and had the best time. Again the staff was very helpful and walked us through everything. It was so much fun my wife wants us to get VR for the house (Nice!!!!) All in all, this place is great, and it is on our "must do" list for our next visit to Louisville.

    This was a fun spot to be and I recommend everyone experiencing this. Best part for me and mi wife was the axe throwing. But having kids, I think the rage room was close best. Worst if I may add is how expensive one "L.I.T" Was.

    So we kind of happened upon this place. When we stopped at the gas station next door and I saw that they had axe throwing. Knowing that we needed to kill time before check in for our hotel. We came here. At first we were only interested in just the axe throwing. But manager Brandon stated they had a combo deal and we could do a little bit of everything. So we decided it sounded good and got that. Best idea ever. Started with the axe throwing. It being our first time we got set up with a team member to help us. I can't remember his name unfortunately, but he was great and super through. Asked us how we prefer to throw and continued to help us with our form the entire time. He was so great, honestly I feel like I became a pro in a matter of 30mins lol. Super informative . We did that for about an hr or more. And move on to the VR. VR is Virtual Reality and was set up with another team member. Again I can't remember his name. Also really friendly and super informative. Talked us through it all. Made sure everything fit to our liking. It was super cool. But very tiring lol. I got a good sweat on. Looking for an exercise this is lowkey a great replacement. Food smelled amazing. Although we didn't get any. Beer pouring looked amazing too. Again didn't get beer. But we did get sodas and water in bottles lol. Environment was cool, spacious, and clean. From California so idk when we will be back in Louisville, KY but if we do visit again definitely coming back because of the amazing fun and service we had. THANKS GUYS!

    Pretty cool new place that will be a great tourist pull in the city. This place sits really close the Omni and not too far off from the Yum Center. I will say that for those who are stopping in town and need an activity to fill up some time, this will be a great spot to make that happen. I am thankful to Yelp for putting this event on! It was great to get to explore and test try all of the options this place has to offer. I found it very interesting that they even have a Rage Room. The prices seemed a little much, but having never experienced it I would probably shell out the base $25 to give this a try. The prices are scaled up from there depending on the amount of time and the size of the objects you wish to break. The VR activities are awesome. I personally cannot experience VR as it makes me very motion sick. I did play the race car simulator on the screens and got a touch of motion sickness, it was a lot of fun. Axe throwing is hard, but still a lot of fun to try and the overall experience was a nice stop in the night to have a little fun with friends. Definitely worth a stop to give it a try!!

    Time Board with your Race results!

    Visited Ovrdrive 2/10/20 Parking is very limited being so central of downtown. The lot houses maybe a dozen spaces. Good thing is street parking is free after 6PM M-S. Free meters on Sunday. Inside Ovrdrive is the most state of the art arcade I've experienced. Axe Throwing here had to be the easiest place to land an axe in the target zone compared to the other throwing places we have visited, you could even throw at Zombies! The VR gaming was setup per person and could be played in 10 minutes sessions and 30 minutes based on the game you chose. The longer the game play, the longer you'll have to wait for your turn. I'm assuming one person per VR stall for safety. Lastly, THE RACING! The best part about the evening was the VR simulator for driving. Every spin, bumps, burn out of your car, the seat reacted to. The pedals and paddle shifters on the console felt like you truly were driving the touring series Corvette we hammered down on. I would come back purely for the racing and the racing alone. They also had a high tech alcohol fountain setup and booze you paid for by the ounce with a special card like you'd use at Gattiland. In addition they did have some pizza and pretzels to accompany for food.

    The Angel's Envy distillery is pretty much the #1 reason that my top-tier chum who literally went…read moreto the school of hospitality and I decided to go on a trip to Kentucky, and after actually visiting, justified it as well. During an early 2025 trip to Washington, D.C., we went to multiple establishments and, coincidentally or not, encountered this specific bourbon and just loved it. The most notable occurrence was at Jack Rose Dining Saloon, where I had literally the best Old-Fashioned I've ever had, using a special Angel's Envy that hung out in some sherry barrels for a while. Since then, we've both regularly ordered it when given the opportunity, and ultimately decided that the best way to appreciate this fine spirit was to go right to the source. So to the mothership we went. My chum did most of the heavy lifting here and scheduled a bourbon tour with Louisville Food Tours (very strong recommend) that featured Angel's Envy at the first stop. It's hard to really put into words what this building looks like as you walk in and explore, but it's just so...nice. It's classy without being inaccessible, and it just felt like a true cathedral of bourbon. As tasteful as the bourbon it makes. During our initial tour, we were probably in the distillery for a solid half hour plus, getting a quick tour of the still and fermenters before being led into a side room on the second floor to formally taste some bourbon. Paula was our guide, both during this tour and later on, and was just enormously impressive, which I touched upon in my review of the official tour as well. She's no-nonsense and loves her bourbon - who can't relate? We learned how to inspect the bourbon in the glass, to take a test sip to numb the pain receptors and to truly appreciate the subtle notes in the bourbon with the second sip. It was legitimately helpful, useful information that we're both going to utilize going forward. After our three-hour tour ended (go hard or go home), it wasn't even much of a discussion - we came back here for a few hours to soak in more of the atmosphere and drink some more bourbon. At this point, it was probably close to 5ish but the place was still pretty busy; somehow we were able to secure spots at the bar upstairs and made ourselves at home. I wish I could remember the name of our bartender (blame the time that has elapsed, not the bourbon), but he was very good, social without being oppressive and was just present and let us do our thing. After sipping straight bourbon for most of the afternoon, I switched to the Bourbon Renewal, which you'll be shocked to know includes Angel's Envy but is a more summer, fruit-forward cocktail and super refreshing. Was the right call and hit the spot. (We also got waters because that's the responsible thing to do.) We finally went back downstairs to the gift shop, which doesn't feel like the right term - it was more majestic than something you'd walk into after going through, say, a museum for an hour or two. It's enormous and offers numerous bourbons and also some very high quality swag. We reunited with our chum Paula and sampled their limited edition two-grain, which was created due to a fortunate mistake in which the rye wasn't added so it's just the corn and malted barley. You CAN see the difference and taste it; to me at least, it's more caramel-y than their normal single barrel. We each bought a bottle to bring back to the homeland. My chum basically bought half the store, but I remained calm/deliberate and my only other purchase was a MAGNIFICENT black hoodie. I'm not kidding - I love hoodies and have probably owned dozens over the years, and this is literally the best quality one I've had. It has this interesting front pouch pocket design with like a pocket within the pocket for high-priority items like your ID or credit cards, and the hood itself is interesting. It's just really good and I wore it all day the next day as we slowly made our way back to the East Coast. It's been washed and carefully placed in my closet, where it will reign supreme when the weather inevitably turns nippy again. It's not an exaggeration to say we probably spent hundreds of dollars (at least not thousands) directly and indirectly involving Angel's Envy on this trip. Worth it.

We looked at a lot of nice places but we wanted to use Shack-in-the-Back for the food (another great place). I happened to come across the Greenhouse by accident on a Google search for venues. What a find. We met Marti to look at the space - downstairs is a fairly large, relaxed m, open-air space replete with lots of picnic tables, fire pits and games (putt-putt, large Jenna, Connect 4, etc). There was a covered area that sports a bar set-up and plenty of space for the catering. Two bathrooms and a space for prep work. A sound system you can Blue-tooth into and tv's to show videos. There is an upstairs area, very similar but inside. The two spaces are separate but, for a small fee, the Greenhouse will hold the upstairs in case of inclement weather - we did this. Marti was great. She help us thru the entire process, kept us informed and worked with us on getting everything ready for the party. We had a great time. Everything came together and everyone had great time. We received many compliments on the venue. And, another great thing, it's in the East End but only 20-25 minutes from anywhere. I highly recommend The Greenhouse at Zeppa for your next outing. Perfect for Birthdays, Family get together, Graduation and the like.

Yes some people are fine with spending the money... but put those charges on upfront! It was a crazy amount of add ons for an already pricey venue. They don't even provide the wedding insurance. What kind of venue isn't already insured? The lack of communication and professionalism was disheartening. My sister got married here last Friday and it was a beautiful wedding... but all the behind the scenes was a disaster. They had scheduled tours for when the bride and groom were having their "first touch" and reading prayers... so there were people talking over them and getting in the way of the PAID photographer and videographer. And they didn't listen when told to lower their voices. Extremely rude and the fact that they didn't tell anyone they were scheduling random people to come in and look while a wedding was taking place was just really unprofessional. It made the bride and groom very upset and honestly made me quite upset too. I understand it's also a shared business space but I saw no one from the other businesses get in the way more than the actual event people. And then they only have five approved caterers. Which makes sense when you under the industry... but why they chose those specific caterers made no sense because of the lack of communication with them was just awful. And one of the caterers never even got back with us after an inquiry. And the one caterer we went with had probably the worst food I've eaten. Like I've had better cafeteria food. And they wouldn't approve of any other vendors, even if they were reputable and had a full staff. Terrible communication. Ridiculous standards. Would never recommend this spot to anyone.
