    The staff work hard to assure everyone has a good time. During the most recent visit they were working with minimal staff as many were already tracking for the Christmas holiday. These guys busted their tails to make sure everyone in the house were waited in and set up. We wanted for nothing at any moment.

    Staff overwhelmed by crowd from UIUC Dad’s w/e. Recommend visiting when not a school event weekend. Limited food menu was surprise vs menu on venue’s website. Even with reservation we had to wait 35 minutes to be seated. Food came out quick but very average. Axe throwing was fun activity though.

    Came here for my wife’s birthday and we had a blast. They give you a quick tutorial and then you are free to go, our advice would be to get the 90 mins with all the addons! Great experience and great people!

    We had a wonderful time! Our Axe coach and server were really nice. Yes it was loud but we expected it because people are throwing axes. We will be coming back.

    We had so much fun at The Axe Bar. The service was great and it was incredibly busy because of Moms weekend but they were on top of everything! Definitely a fun place to go. We will be back for sure
