Reviews of Dueling Axes | Axe Throwing Bar
Highly recommend! Went with my wife for a casual date and had a great time, especially because we’ve severely limited what and where we’ve gone during the pandemic.
The bays are well spaced out, there’s a number of games to play using the axes, and you can order food and drinks (including alcohol) from the place next door which came within 10 minutes. We had a great time!
Wish they had a bar, which I heard they’re installing soon! Great family and friend experience. Dan was a great instructor who checked in frequently!
Great place to visit have fun. Julie even took her time with us. Giving advice on best way to throw ax and safety things to keep in mind! Thank you so much Julie
Been here twice now and both times the staff was super cool and we had a great time. Dan was funny and had us hitting targets in no time. (He absolutely didn't bribe me to say these nice things about him. *wink wink)
Had a ball!
This was the first time I ever went axe throwing. I am very competitive, and I took this as a challenge.
I must say this was tougher than I thought.
The fact that you can bring your own food in, is a major plus.
I'm most certainly going to do this again, without a doubt.
Had to work event here with 18 people. They provided training before we used things and everyone had a good time. They worked hard to accommodate us and make sure we were doing well. Highly recommended if you're looking for something to do. Shout out to Dan. Good job man
Employees are super cool and informative. They kept helping our group correct our throwing technique until nearly everyone could hit the target (if not a bullseye) with ease. They're upbeat energy also helped keep everyone positive even when we weren't yet getting the hang of it. Wish I knew about the BYOB policy in Columbus as I would have definitely taken advantage of that. Next time perhaps.
Julie with the green hair was the best! She made our experience so much fun and gave great tips to me, who couldn’t hit the target!
Really great folks running it. Brought two kids with me (13/16), had a blast. Zero concern on safety (I was worried about that).
Different game typed with the scoring kept it interesting. Looking forward to going back. The hour went quickly.
We seriously had the best time and your staff are all wonderful.
HUGE shout out to the chick that danced and sang with us when she gave us our tutorial. She made the night that much more fun.
This was mine and my husband's first time here, we have been eyeing this place since it opened! We finally got a night off together and we had a blast! The staff was great! Would absolutely come back!
We went for a small date night as beginners, and had an absolute blast! The employees were extremely helpful in teaching us one on one how to improve our individual throwing techniques and we saw improvement immediately! They also have games on an iPad to help with point guides and to keep track of scoring with a goal in mind.
Julie was AMAZING!! She was personable and fun and taught us all things things. Gave us the space to have fun but helped out when we were failing at throwing. Will definitely return for future events!!
Dan helped my girlfriend and I when we came into Dueling Axes tonight. He was super friendly and funny and was a great instructor! We had a fantastic experience, and want to bring our friends next time we come :)
Went to the Columbus location with a group from work and we had a great time! It was a lot of fun. Dan and Josh are terrific trainers and nade it a great experience for all of us.
Great place. Julie was so great at teaching us how to throw. Thanks so much!
Amazing time with family! Able to bring your own drinks to drink. Dan was a great instructor and gave tips throughout the session to help us finally hit those bullseyes!
Julie was amazing! First timer and she made it less intimidating. Had a great experience and look forward to coming again!
Lilli, did a great job coaching us up front and went above and came back a few times with very helpful pointers! My last game I hit 8/10 and got my highest score ever, 26! We'll be back!
We had a great time throwing axes for my Birthday. Dan was very helpful with teaching 1st time throwers. And you can't beat BYOB!
Great experience, especially for those who have never tried axe throwing before.
Julie's demonstration and guidance quickly taught our large group how to actually hit the board (and more than a few bullseyes)!
Dan was the best instructor! Fun and helpful and even helped clean up my mess!! Definitely recommend this place and him if you can get him!
So much fun for the Whole Family! Dan has been here everything we come. He's so helpful, and really enjoys his customers!
We went with a group of mom/sons. Dan was awesome! The boys had a blast. Will definitely be going back!
First time at this establishment. Kia was absolutely amazing. Very helpful, personable and her energy was top knotch! Will definitely return on Saturdays when she works!!
Julie was incredible!!! Such a fun night and she was so helpful!!!!!:)
Axe throwing was fun and much easier than I thought! Dan was an excellent teacher and showed us how to throw safely (which was my biggest concern before hand).
Great atmosphere! Our coach Julie was hilarious and taught us well! Thanks for a great Saturday night! 🥳🤩 …
Julie was our coach and we had a great time letting out some aggression...of course in a healthy way. Also, Kiiya was delightful 😊 …
We had a great time and Lilly did a great job helping our group!
It was so much fun! Julie and Dan are amazing!
This was a very fun date night and the atmosphere was great. Dan was awesome and explained things thoroughly, would definitely return!
Dan and Julie stuck around during a big snowstorm, and we were able to walk in and play. We’re grateful for their help and positive attitudes!
This was a wonderful time and Dan made it easy to understand. His helpful tips during our time took me from bouncing every time to a few bullseyes!
The people are really nice and the atmosphere is super casual. ☺️ There’s a parking lot that costs $10 nearby and some parallel parking even closer. I didn’t really think I’d like it but I ended up having a better time than I thought.
This was so much fun! Super chill place and friendly staff! Dan was super helpful and funny. Highly recommend this location
Had a great time. Julie was fun annd personable and did a great job showing us what we were doing wrong 😅. …
Dan and Julie were great and very helpful! We had a great time on a work team outing. =)
Julie was AWESOME! We had a great time! Good birthday fun!
First time at Dueling Axes and it was so fun, Julie gave us the rundown and was super helpful and such an axe throwing pro!
Dan was really helpful and our family really enjoyed our outing!!!
we had never gone axe throwing before but our first time was a blast. We spent the whole time throwing and laughing. Kiiya was such a big help and fun soul. We’ll be back!
Good time, love that it is BYOB and you get your own lane. Julie was awesome!
Kiiya and Dan were absolutely amazing and made our experience so much fun! Will be back again!
Had a great time. They were helpful and allowed us to choose what music we wanted to hear.
We had a great time! Julie was a great coach and cheered us on the whole time
It is a good place for having a good time, you can bring your own drinks and food, the staff is amazing they are very patient. The place is clean but the restroom are located in a separate area.
It is a new and very fun activity you need to try it.
Fun experience! Great group activity. Dan was awesome and a great instructor!
Dan and Julie are amazing. Had a great time and learned a few new tricks. Thanks guys I'll be back very soon😁😁😁 …
Lily and Kia where AMAZING! Sooo sweet, kind, and informative. Had the Best experience. Will DEFINITELY BE BACK!
Love it. My first time doing it and will certainly be back. Dan was great and took his time showing how to throw.
We have visited Dueling Axes twice and both times we had a blast! The staff are all very friendly and helpful. We had our first encounter with the Dueling Axe people at the Coffee Fest and we were immediately hooked. They offer technique suggestions that are very much appreciated. A warm, inviting environment filled with wonderful folks?
Had a group of 16 people in on a Saturday afternoon for a 38th birthday celebration. The space is well maintained and equipped. All of the staff members went above and beyond to keep our large group entertained and comfortable. Will definitely return. Thank you Dueling Axes!!
Dan is the best! Will definitely be back! Had way more fun than I thought I would!
Julie was awesome and we had an absolute blast! Can't wait to come back!
I had so much fun. Thank you for the memories. Dan and Julie were amazing. 👍👍 …
We had so much fun! The staff was incredibly helpful and kind! There are several options for throwing games. We were looking for something new, exciting and kind of crazy for us. This was it and we will definitely go again!
We had so much fun! Chloe was amazing!!! Chloe was so patient, teaching is proper throwing techniques and was always there with helpful tips.
Julie was awesome! She made our group outting one to remember.
Dan and Kiiya were the most amazing hosts for a an ace throwing date night!
Great experience, tons of fun! Dan was a great host/employee, would definitely recommend as a fun outing!
What a fun new experience! They gave us plenty of training/instruction and a lot of practice throws before our time started. This would be a great team building event.
Try this place out! It's a lot of fun! Great environment. Laughter, music, staff is super friendly. Everyone around me was having a great time. And you get to throw axes!! How cool is that! A bullseye is great, but can you get a blue dot? (I got lucky...)
Dan made the experience a lot more fun and gave us really good tips!
Great experience. The atmosphere is fantastic and the staff work really hard to make everyone feel comfortable. It's a great time for two people or even a huge group like a bachelor/bachelorette party. You get a training session before you time starts so show up a bit early.
We were looking for something fun to do for the fam during on our first night in Columbus and found this place on Google maps. Staff was super friendly and helpful. Only reason I couldn't give it 5 stars was because they don't offer food or drinks, just a small vending machine with drinks. You can get food delivered their but would be nice to be able to get a quick appetizer and a soda while you throw and not have to wait for delivery.
We booked an hour for a girls get together. All of my friends were from out of town, and we all had a blast. Highly recommend for a fun, competitive, new skill to learn with a group. The staff was super friendly and helpful. You can BYOB and snacks. Hard to come by these days. Walking distance to some great bars afterwards. Only recommend scheduling more time! It goes by quick.
First time axe throwing. Dan was a great instructor - don’t blame him for our poor aim. Lots of fun for everyone
Professional, knowledgeable and friendly staff. Will definitely be back- looking forward to the bar!
Fantastic experience! Booked online with 3 friends and had a blast!
Social distancing guidelines were in effect and enforced consistently so I felt safe. Action was fun and quick to pick up. We did so much damage to the boards in they let us take a slat home!
Newly introduced digital scoring made it simple to keep up with bragging rights between friends. BYOB (bring your own beer) feature makes this place hard to beat...but they also sell drinks!
Will come again for sure. Such a fun, out of the ordinary experience!
Was an absolute blast for a date night activity. Staff was friendly and super helpful. Will for sure be back. Highly recommended.
Kiia was amazing! She made it super fun for us!!
Went for the first time and had a blast! Family of 4 and we all really enjoyed it!!
JULIE is the absolute best!! She even was impressed with how terrible we all were 😊 Dueling Axes is always our favorite place to visit! …
First time throwing axes and I had a fantastic time! Staff were very friendly and I enjoyed the variety of games. Went on a Saturday afternoon at noon and we had the place to ourselves which made it a low pressure environment to try out a new skill. Will definitely be back!
I LOVE this place. I have been to other axe throwing places but this has to be my favorite. Chloe was awesome. She was super patient and offered to help us if we were struggling. She was funny and friendly and really made it a great environment! I will definitely be back.
Julie was a great instructor and we had an absolute blast!
Julie was great and helpful as an instructor! Great fun!
Our first time throwing, loved it. Autumn was beautiful and insightful
It was our first time going to Dueling Axes, they were so good about explaining and demonstrating the proper way to stand ,hold, and throw the axe.
Great time. Julie was a very patient excellent instructor despite how bad we were.
Julie was a fantastic coach! And such a trooper for making it out in the storm
Julie was great and I had a great time would definitely come again!!!
Great Time would highly recommend! Is BYOB but great time!
My husband and I have finally started doing dates nights again and this was a blast. The first time either of us have thrown axes! Great time and wonderful staff. We will be back!
Enjoyed our visit. Definitely something you'd want to do with at least a small group of people, to make it more enjoyable. We ate at Pecan Penny's before axe throwing and went to 16 bit bar after - lots of things to do in the area.
Fun and Dan and Julie were great
We had a great time! Chole was awesome. Did a great job helping us correct our throwing so that we all had a great time and were able to get the axes to stick in the board and play a few different games. It was a fun new experience and we would definitely do it again! I recommend trying it!
The staff was EXTREMELY helpful and friendly. This was fourth visit, but our first bringing a 10 year old along. She had a great time.
Dan was excellent and very professional. Had a great time with my family there! Gracias Dan!
Worked with Julie for our work outing today! She was the best we were killin it by the end!
Julie did a great job showing us the ropes! Highly recommend Dueling Axes
Julie was great and she took a great picture of us. We are difficult people to work with
Very fun and chill environment. Dan was a great instructor.
Dueling Axes is centrally located and easy to get to. The staff was extremely friendly and the atmosphere, overall, was also great. We went with a larger birthday party and they were able to accommodate all of our needs.Would recommend for a unique and fun experience. Looking forward to visiting again!
We had a great time at dueling axes and Julie was an awesome instructor!
Dueling Axes was lots of fun. The lounge has half a dozen lanes and tables. It's all BYOB and they have some relationships with local restaurants for free delivery. The staff and friendly and helpful. You can make reservations or walk in.
We had such a fun time at Dueling Axes…Chloe and Ian were so patient with me (seeing how I was the one who needed the most working with haha), they gave us pointers and helped to make our experience so much fun. We can’t wait to return.
Kiiya was a lovely instructor. We had a great time
Great time, helpful knowledge staff.Julie was very attentive and helpful throughout our session.
Julie is amazing!!! She was super fun and welcoming.
We had an amazing time the staff was super friendly and helpful we laughed so much and enjoyed the experience!
Dan was super knowledgeable and very funny. Definitely would recommend!
Dan and Julie were super helpful, we had a great time!
This was our second time at throwing axes and we had a great time again! I can't wait to do it again. thanks to the staff for his help. He was great!
Amazing Holiday Party Experience!
We hosted a department Holiday Party at Dueling Axes in Downtown Columbus and it was a huge SUCCESS! Mike and his staff were very friendly and attentive! We spent a good three hours there for our party, but honestly could've stayed for another three - our time there was amazing and nobody wanted to leave.
Dueling Axes is definitely on the list for us when planning future events.
Thank you Kiiya! You’re the BEST!!! Thank you for your assistance with our axe holes. What a happy ending to our night!
We had a great time at Dueling Axes! Our coaches Chloe and Mike were super helpful and patient. Our group of three were all hitting the target before long. I highly recommend Dueling Axes for events with friends, work and families with older kids.
Great time! Staff, Julie and Dan were excellent.
Kiiya took great care of us!! So much fun.
Love this place!! Staff are great, it's super clean and using safe distancing practices! Great for parties or just chilling with friends. Can BYOB and bring in food too!! So glad you guys reopened!!
It was fun and the coaches were great ! Thanks Julie !
My company had our office holiday party at Dueling Axes and it was a great time! Most of the attendees were first time axe throwers, but the staff at Dueling Axes were able to instruct everyone on how to hit the board. We had a great time playing. It was very convenient to be able to bring our own food and drinks for lunch. Mike was great to work with in setting up the event, and went above and beyond making sure we had everything we needed the day of the party. Highly recommend for a group gathering, or just a fun night out!
Dan and Julie were awesome the derby had a blast
Dan was a great trainer. Had a lot of fun!
Absolutely love this place! Great way to blow off steam and have a fun night out. Chloe is also a very wonderful teacher and made our experience the best! 😊 …
Dueling Axes was the perfect place for our fun corporate outing. We can’t wait to go back!
Good place, great fun. Dan was a great teacher!
Julie was awesome! Had a great time throwing axes
Kiiya was very great! Loved the experience!
Super fun and easy for some. Dan was an absolute G.
First time axe throw, was a blast and kiiya was an amazing coach
Julie was a great guide and very patient with teaching.
Shoutout to Mike and the whole Dueling Axes Team! Our event from start to finish was flawless. The entire team is friendly and helpful. They did a great job communicating expectations and accommodating our pretty large team outing. If looking for a fun company team-building event to connect and engage your people this is the event!!
Thank you all!
Absolutely cherish my time spent here. Instructors were helpful and recommended game types based on our groups interests. We had a group of 7 and an hour reservation. We easily could have spent 2-3 hours as the time goes quick because of how fun it is! If you have a similar sized or larger group I'd strongly recommend getting at least 2 hours so everyone can really enjoy themselves without having to watch the clock. I will definitely be back and would absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking for a fun way to spend some free time doing something a bit different!
Dan was awesome; funny and helpful with techniques too!
Dan was awesome and helped us out a lot!
Love it here, Dan is the best - hands down!
What a fun night! Myself and 12 of my friends spent the evening here and had a blast! The customer service was top notch from my first inquiry to the end of our evening. This was the only facility that answered my internet inquiry and assisted me in scheduling and organizing a fun birthday party for a friend. Mike (the manager) was friendly and patient with every question. Upon arrival for our event he and his capable staff helped all of us understand the safety and best practices of axe throwing. We brought our own snacks and beverages and were able to hang out in the last 2 lanes and linger for a bit after our games to celebrate. We will return! Safe, fun and relaxed atmosphere!
Kiiya was amazing! Great time and awesome atmosphere!
When a person has lived in Columbus for as long as I have, a person begins to look for new and exciting experiences in the city. One evening after having dinner and drinks with my partner and another couple, we decided go throw some axes, and Dueling Axes was our destination. Once we entered the business and signed a waiver (you know, if you get killed by an axe, the business has no responsibility), one of the employees walked our group over to one of the cages and explained safety, the correct axe-throwing form, and the different games (like dart games) we could play. Essentially, one throws an axe at a bullseye painted on a wood board. As simple as it sounds, we had a great time! We were the only group in the business, at that time, and the staff was extremely friendly, helpful, and fun. The place is BYOB, so don't forget drinks if you wish to have a couple drinks as you throw. The rental of the cages is by the hour, but you can make reservations of the cages by the hour, online. We had the best time, and I know we will be back, again.
I came in with my team from work on Sunday Jan 3rd. 7 throwers and 3 spectators. All the forms were completed ahead of time so we just got escorted to our lanes and given an introduction. After getting beers from the bar our coach came and showed us the technique. I didn't get names dangit. Everyone was great and we had a blast! There are multiple ways to play like in darts. They have an electronic scoring system like bowling. It was just great. Exactly what I hoped for! We'll come back.
Dan was great and Julie was great to lots of fun.
Had a lot of fun throwing axes against coworkers. Thanks, Dan!
The ladies we had were so nice. They were patient, knowledgeable and helpful. They even made sure to come back before we left to take a group pic. A great place to go to for any occasion. I love that you can byob and food as well. Very clean as well and plenty of places to sit!
Really fun! Julie was a great teacher!
Had a great time slinging axes and kicking @$$es with our host Lt. Dan
Had a great time with my co-workers at Dueling Axes. The instruction was good and I appreciated the time they invested in helping us try new games. I highly recommend!
Great place to book a group! Julie was great!
Julie was an awesome teacher and a beast of a thrower!
Great time at an end of year company event. They allowed us to bring food and drink and after a ten minute tutorial let us have two hours to just have fun tossing the ax. It is a great activity, almost anyone can do it. I was hitting bullseye after bullseye and I had never played before. We were able to stay socially distanced if we wanted and they had sanitizer and mask requirement so it was a safe time too. Looking for something along the lines of bowling or top golf, ax throwing might be the way to do it.
It was a blast thanks Dan
We had a really fun time. The staff members were really nice and very accommodating. Great experience.
Julie rocks! Great team building experience.
Dan was the MAN!!!! Had a great time thanks to him
Julie was so helpful and we had a blast!!
So much fun! The entire staff is so helpful and friendly. Will definitely bring everyone I know.
We had a blast! We took a group of 18 coworkers for some team building. The staff was super friendly and helped us set up teams and games. They allow outside food and drink and there are plenty of options around to make that easy. We will be going back!
I had a great experience! Thank you Dan & Josh
Dan was super helpful, especially for a first timer!
Awesome place. Dan was fun
Our group had a great time! They were so fun and accommodating. They opened a little early for us so we'd have plenty of time to get our son the groom and his groomsmen in and out before the wedding. It was a great day, and Dueling Axes got off to a great start! Would definitely recommend!
Clean, well-lit venue with friendly and helpful staff. The atmosphere was fun. Would recommend 10/10.
I went last night for the first time and loved it. I was given instructions by the staff on safety and how to throw. Will go back!
Great time and place! They have a cool set up with electronic scoring. Bring in your own food and beverage which is nice.
Kiiya! She was amazing! Great time!
Kiiya was fantastic had a blast here!
We took our team on an outing at Dueling Axes. Was such a fun experience! Super low-key and the staff is as hands on/hands off as you want them to be.
Great place to enjoy a date night out. Very friendly staff that was happy to explain everything. Excellent for beginners that haven't ever dabbled in this sport. A very fun spin on a group outing. Heads up though, it is 100% BYOB and snacks, as there is only a pop machine in house
Kiiya was a great coach!! Thank you!
Our guide (Michael) was amazing! He was encouraging and provided all kinds of games for us to play. I was there with a large group from work and we had a blast! I have already put out a recommendation to my FB peeps and will definitely return to do this again!
I recently went to Dueling Axes with my fiance and we had the BEST time there! From the moment we walked in to the moment we left we had great customer service. The rules of the facility were explained really well including the types of games we could play. I felt like someone was there whenever I needed something or had a question. The staff added so much to an already super fun activity - the stress relief of heaving an axe was awesome! :) I would highly recommend Dueling Axes - you'll have a great time!
Such a fun date idea! The lady that got us set up was super kind and showed us how to safely throw. And then she left us alone to enjoy our time, always ready to help or to take a picture when we needed it. We will definitely be back, and we’ll bring some friends next time. Such a therapeutic way to de-stress after a long week of work! Thanks again
Helpful staff and a great BYOB/BYOF policy.
First time! Had a really good time.
We had a blast. They followed social distancing and cleaned rigorously after each guest. Alicia and Mike were great. Alicia gave us great advice and we had a really good time. Thank you!
Thank you Julie for a great axe throwing experience!
Incredibly fun! I can not wait until I can go back and throw axes again.
Thanks Dan and Julie!! A lot of fun
Thanks for a night of great bday fun, Dan!
Great time on a girls night out! We had drinks and a excellent experience, great music, clean establishment, the staff was friendly, the bartender awesome, and can't wait to go back!! Wish there were snacks or appetizers to go with it but can't have everything!
Friendly, helpful stuff and a very fun, cozy atmosphere! Kids allowed, which is why we chose this place.
We had a great time! First time axe throwing!
What wonderful staff. Taught my wife and I the technique, showed us some games and let us get to it. Great atmosphere and music with options to have food delivered from a few delicious favorites(looking at you, Pecan Pennys). Place was busy when we got there and after we left but the staff was attentive to everyone and was always right there for anything from questions to calling out praise when people nailed a blue dot.
We'll be back, hopefully soon.
Twenty of us went for a friend’s birthday last night and it was so fun! Since a lot of us were first time ax throwers, we were a tad nervous, but the team did a great job training us and making us feel comfortable. Once we played for a while, we were all loving it and cheering each other on.
It’s also awesome that you can bring your own food and drinks, and that there were TVs (for the Buckeye game!) - definitely loved this experience and would enjoy going back for sure! (Maybe because I also got kind of good at it. :P)
We had a group of 22 go for 2 hours. We had a blast, the instructor was great and he had a number of different games to keep us entertained. The facility is very well maintaned, and there was plenty of parking in the area. I would definitely recommend it for both small and large groups.
A lot of fun! Good job Dan!
Wow what can I say. First the activity is a blast and great for groups. Everyone had blast. The workers were also amazing. They are friendly and passionate about the jobs. They do a a nice safety demo and are very patient with everyone to make sure they are throwing correctly. I recommend for everyone.
We had an awesome experience and time at dueling axes New Albany location. We were running a bit late and Zach gave a courtesy call to check on us and was also a super fantastic teacher since majority of us never “axed” before. I would definitely go back!
Awesome time! And Chloe was a ton of help and fun to work with! Look forward to the next experience!
amazing staff, very nice and helpful and funny to be with.
We had a blast at Dueling Axes in Columbus, OH! Chloe was awesome! We can’t wait to come back soon!
Had a great time Dan is a great teacher.
Dueling Axes was great! The experience was one I won't forget. The staff is very warm, welcoming and friendly. Also, the workers did a great job explaining how to throw the axe which really helped eased my fears. I would return again to this location or even New Albany
This was super fun! You can bring in your food and drinks including wine & beer- no liquor. Our reservation was for an hour and it was awesome but next time I'd like to try 2 hours!
We had an amazing time at this place, they were extremely accommodating, and helpful to newcomers. You are able to bring food and drinks into the establishment and there is plenty of seating around to each and have a great time. It’s a lot harder at first then it looks , but they are extremely helpful showing you the best way. They take safety pretty seriously, which is great knowing that intoxicated people are throwing axes!
We had a great time with Kiiya
Such a great place to hang out and have a blast. Whether on a date or with a group, this is the place to be!
We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Dueling Axes! All of the staff were very friendly and so helpful, coaching us about technique and offering suggestions. They offer a relaxed environment but with strong safety guidelines. We can't wait to go back!!
We went in a group, had a great time. Unique experience, good for hanging out with friends, date night, group party, etc. Staff were friendly, helpful, and safety focused. No food or drink available here, but they know which places deliver, both food and beer available for delivery, plus at least half a dozen other places to walk to within a block.
We didn't make reservations, but should have, although killing an hour at 16-bit while we waited for a lane wasn't a bad thing either.
My husband and I decided to go on a random date night, and though we would give axe throwing a shot. We were not disappointed. It could not have been more fun. The staff (all incredible friendly) give you a great lesson on how to throw, and makes sure you are comfortable before you start playing. Laid back environment as well. Will be back often!
This place is so much fun! I went for a work outing and was an instant fan!! The staff was very helpful and very nice. They made sure that everyone enjoyed themselves. I will definitely be back with my son to do it again!!
Fantastic place to go for any occasion. The rules of the facility are plain and easy to understand, the booking is easy, and the staff are excellent. When I say the staff are excellent, I mean they go out of their way at a moment's notice to make your experience more fun and fulfilling. If you're having trouble with technique and aren't sticking an axe, they are more than happy to constructively give you advice to help you achieve your best throws. I've never met more helpful employees anywhere.
The atmosphere is super casual and fun, and the aesthetic is perfect for what it is. Bring your friends and family and have a great time at Dueling Axes. You can't miss this new Columbus opportunity.
I planned a girls night out for two friends and myself- we had a blast! The instruction and coaching was super helpful, and it was surprisingly safe. It's definitely not as easy as it looks, but we eventually got the hang of it. And I'm pretty sure we were all sore the next day. We loved that It's BYOB, we brought champagne and snacks. Parking was easy- the lot diagonal across 4th is $6, and a very short walk. The staff is amazing, and will make sure you have a good time. Highly recommend for a group activity, bachelor/ette parties, or just to vent some frustration.
Fun place for sure and I definitely had a good time. A little pricey and I had to buy one of their masks. Other than that I'd recommend this place for anyone looking to have competitive friendly fun with your partner or date.
The whole experience was excellent. The staff did a good job introducing the rules and pretty much let us play with out interputions. Will say it's a bit pricey but still worth the experience.
Julie was an amazing coach!
It was great. We had so much fun!!!
Dueling Axes has a simple, clean set up. We were going to dinner after, but the BYOB and nearby food options work great with the table space by the throwing lanes. We were welcomed, given the safety speech, coaching, and guidelines for games in a short span of time before our hour ever started. The music sounded like my own playlist with a few interesting deviations and didn‘t overwhelm conversation. I look forward to returning!
Was pretty fun, clean place an helpful staff
Our group of family ages 15 to 70+ had a great time at Dueling Axes. It was something that all ages from teenagers to grandmothers could actively participate in. I liked how people are able to bring in their own food an beverages. Something I'll definitely remember for the next time!
We had a corporate team building event at Dueling Axes on 09/29/19 for 50 guests and it was PERFECT! The staff was AMAZING. They got everyone up to speed quickly, they organized a tournament with participation from EVERYONE, and were super friendly and helpful! 11/10!
Lost of fun. Great experience.
We had a great time. Throwing an axe was a lot of fun. But they dont have drinks or alcohol, you have to bring your own. They also dont have food. Yes you can order but it takes to long to get there.
Julie helped us and was great!
We threw our axe in a circle. Dan helped.
Just got home from the first night of it being open and it was a blast! The owners did a great job making the venue beautiful and the process smooth and fun. People of all ages were there, and everyone had a smile on their face.
They don't serve food or drinks, but there are a lot of food places near by and you're allowed to bring it in. Also they allow byob.
Make it a quick stop on a night out, or make.it the whole night out. Either way you'll enjoy the time you spent there.
I'd give 6 stars if I could, but I guess 5 will do.
Throwing an axe is such an experience, I was really frightened at first fortunately there's this guy who teach you and even cheer for you (one of their staffs) which made it more comfortable. Just a heads up they do not offer food and only have bottled drinks. The good news is you can bring your own or you can even order it online and have it delivered there.
This place is fantastic! We had never been before and reached out to several of the ax throwing companies in Columbus for reservations; this was one of the 2 that actually called me back. The owner, Jess, was super responsive, answered my questions, and helped me make reservations. When we got there, Collin and Mike helped us out. Our training sessions and the time to fill out all the paperwork and to pay (we had a group of 11) - was NOT included in our hour of ax throwing time, so that was GREAT! Collin let each of us practice and have several throws and gave suggestions to each of us as to how to improve. Even when we started our 1 hour session, he watched us and would come over to help, particularly if it looked like anyone was getting frustrated or having an issue! You can bring your own food and alcohol (just not hard liquor) - which was really nice. We will definitely go back and are super excited that they are opening another Dueling Axes in New Albany/Gahanna by the new Target. If you have never tried ax throwing -- it is a BLAST and Dueling Axes is the place to go. Their customer service is top notch!
10/10 would axe throw here again
Chloe was amazing and the vibes were great
Lots of fun. Pretty empty. Basically had the place to ourselves. The staff was very helpful. Remember to wear closed toe shoes!!
Came here for a yoga and axe throwing event on a Sunday. It was a great experience. BYOB alcohol and food was the perfect touch. I look forward to going back again soon. We all had a great time!
I had a blast at Dueling Axes for a friends bday party. It is nicely decorated, lots of space to sit, and protected throwing lanes. I have been to other axe throwing places and they do not have the metal fence protecting you like at this location. Staff was very helpful and gave pointers throughout. Also its BYOB!
I've been here twice and intend to keep coming and join the League this fall. Everyone who I've interacted with has been incredibly kind and helpful, Matt specifically continually checked in both times I've gone so far and offered advice on my technique.
What started as a curiosity has developed into a full blown hobby and I credit most of that to Dueling Axes.
Colin was also incredibly helpful when I started and helped me get a solid foundation for my Axe Throwing technique.
Update: 2 and a half years later, I'm now one of the top Axe Throwers in the world and have a thriving small business built from that community. None of that would have happened had I not gone here for the first time.
So needless to say my 5 star rating stands.
Had a great time. Highly recommend. You will spend about $38 a person but I did have a lot of fun
What a blast. Julie was awesome.
This was amazing! We had two families for a total of twelve people and a lot of fun. The Dueling Axes people were great - helped us learn the games and skill. Would absolutely do this again!
My family and I had a great time at Dueling Axes. They spent the time to teach us each how to throw the axe and a few games we could play. The facility was clean and safe in these COVID times. I would love to visit again soon!
This place is awesome. It’s byob and u can bring ur own beer!!! I’ve been twice because I’m obsessed with trying to land a stick!!!! It’s addictive and fun all at the same time! They have tournaments and you can challenge ur friends and who ever wins takes home a board!!! Great place! The staff is very knowledgeable respectful kind and very friendly!!!! Love the atmosphere and the place is very clean. DEFINITELY WORTH THE MONEY!!! it’s $35 per person for An hr or $75 for two people for 3 hrs (I think) lol. Good luck finding parking tho only because it’s located downtown! But over all great place to go for something to do out of the norm!!!
Fun time! Dan was great!
An overall great experience!!! Thanks Dan!
Dan and julie were amazing
This place is great. We had so much fun. The staff is friendly and helpful. The adults as well as the teens in my party really enjoyed it. We will definitely come back.
Julie crushed it!
Super fun! They give you instruction in the beginning and pointers throughout. I was there with ten of my friends and we were all throwing strikes at the end of the hour. It may seem pricey at first but worth it
Was a lot more fun than we expected. We picked it up fairly quickly and enjoyed the 1 hr we spent there. The BYOB and outside food was a plus but so was having local places willing to deliver. Will be back.
Extremely fun and unique experience! Great time for a date or even a group! The staff was fun and helpful and they have many options of games to play to make the activity even more fun!
Cool place, lots of fun throwing axes and playing different sorts of games with the axes. The staff is super friendly and helpful with giving tips and showing you how to throw correctly. I also like how you can bring your own food and drinks in
This was a great spot for my work team to get together! Super fun, really helpful and friendly staff too.
This place was a ton of fun! The staff was excellent and provided an extremely fun experience for us. I would highly recommend giving this a try. I will definitely be coming back here for a night out! 😍 …
This was my second time going in 3 weeks. I brought a group of 10 co-workers and we had a GREAT TIME!
The staff is awesome and it's a fun and stress relieving adventure!
Dan was the man with the plan! Was out-dan-ding!
Mike was super helpful and my group had a wonderful time! We can’t wait to come back!
We had a blast! The service was great and the entertainment was plenty! So glad we gave it a try!
We hosted our Winter working outing With Dueling Axes and had an amazing time. Definitely will be coming back more often. Make sure to listen to all the tips your host has on how to throw accurately.
I want to thank Dueling Axes for an awesome experience! From the atmosphere and music, to the exceptional staff, we couldn't have asked for a bette time! Will definitely be returning! I literally can't wait to get my AX on again!! 🤩 …
Dueling Axes is an awesome addition to downtown Columbus! It’s a fantastic spot to bring family and friends or to host an event. Jess and Paul (the owners) are incredibly enthusiastic, have strong attention to detail, and ensure that everyone walking into the space has a great experience. As a tenant in the same building, I have been very impressed with their kindness and thoughtfulness for their neighbors. They have gone out of their way to communicate with us so the building is able to function without a hitch!
Celebrated with 30 of our friends for my wife's 50th birthday. Great time! Friendly staff, BYOB and pizza from Late Night Slice.
Strongly recommend a visit !
Dan crushed it hosting my work outing.
Pretty high price to pay for the novelty of throwing an axe...
It's fun but you get more bang for your buck bowling.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Had such a fun time, a great change up from a regular night out!
The environment at Dueling Axes is great and it’s byob/byof. A thing that stood out a lot to me was the awesome staff. Super friendly and helpful. At one point I could not get the hang of it, the staff came over to our lane, gave me suggestions and techniques to try and the next throw I finally got the axe to stick in the target!
Will be back soon! Already told my boss, our next company outing should be at Dueling Axes!
Lot of staff around to train & field questions. Great cost savers to have the option to BYO.
Love it here! Lots of fun, the staff is awesome, the facility is clean and in a great location close to parking options.
Clean family friendly environment. They gave good instructions for beginners, just had a great time.
We had a great time! The staff is super friendly and very helpful teaching you how to throw the axe and playing games! We definitely plan to return!
Dan was a great instructor!
The Dueling Axes team was a pleasure to work with! Our group of 75 all had a fantastic time, and the staff was involved in the event from the original planning to the day of execution!
I highly recommend Dueling Axes for your next company outing.
This place was great! The staff was super helpful and spent extra time with some of the guys in our group who were struggling at first. Awesome time and highly recommended!
This was our first time going and we LOVED it. So much fun and the staff was great. We will definitely be back!
1st time here. Came on a friday night. It was a very chill, relax and fun setting. The staff is helpful and friendly. Fyi it can take awhile to get the hang of it. You can BYOB and food. They do partner with a couple of local places that will deliver onsite. It was very warm throwing under the lights. So be prepared to sweat.
Everyone in our entire group had such a great time! The facility is top notch only to be outdone by the amazing staff! We can't wait to come back!!
Workers were helpful and laid back
We had a corporate outing here. One of our best! Literally everyone can do it. We played a variety of games, which plays alot like darts. Fantastic day!
So much fun here! The owners are amazing and personable and do such a great job putting on events! Would highly recommend to anyone in and around the Columbus area.
Fun time for our group, but we should have done a bit more research up front. BYOB people. It can get a bit frustrating, but taking a breath, and remembering what they teach you will help.
It's not the cheapest venture either.
First stop at Dueling Axes was for a bachelor party. My buddy and I had so much fun we signed up for a league. I highly recommend checking it out and ordering some delivery from Pecan Penny's.
The staff here was really nice and is a big part of the experience. We had a great time throwing there and would recommend for any parties or groups or events.
This is a tavern where you go to throw axes with your friends. It's like a cross between darts and a bowling alley but you're throwing hatchets. It's pretty fun once you get the hang of it. It's more difficult than it looks however and some of the party was getting frustrated after an hour. It was a little pricey. For the money we spent we could have literally bought all of the wood we would need to throw and hatchets as well.
The establishment is BYOB, but just beer, not booze.
Had a great time! The place is super clean and the hosts Alisha and Mike were super cool and very helpful. 9/10 would highly recommend!
It was a blast. The employees are great about giving pointers. Will definitely go again.
Very friendly staff and helpful. If you at The Doghouse Hotel or Brewdog Restaurant spend the extra time and have fun!
Great time! Thanks, Julie!!
Had a wonderful time on both visits! Tons of fun, and really helpful staff.
Took my family and had a blast (kids 20, 18 and 12). The facility is very clean and the staff is friendly/helpful. Definitely recommend.
I have also visited the competition Columbus Axe Throwing (soon moving to high street) and Dueling Axes is a much classier act! No employee “game master” who stays with your group the entire time (working for tips), corny name tags, being pared with people not in your party, and/or structured games. BYOB and food was a plus too! Highly recommend.
Great place to have fun.learn something new! Staff and space is awesome..love the BYOB and food!!! Enjoyed our time there. We'll be back ..telling all our friends about it !
Was very fun and safe
Had a great time throwing axes here on New Years Eve 2020, they are certainly doing their due diligence with personal spacing. I highly recommend going in and supporting them.
A great time for siblings!
Sooo much fun!! It was a great night out with a group of people! You can bring your own beer or wine.
5 lifelong high school friends enjoyed a few days in Columbus. Axe throwing was the highlight.
Did I mention we were in her sixties and female💪 …
Super fun experience. Clean and well taken care of. Staff really nice and knowledgeable. Fun for a date night or out with a group!
Julie did great!
Awesome time!! It's not as difficult as you think once you take a couple throws. The owner also show you how to throw and gives you pointers. Will definitely be back!!
The employees here were so helpful, professional, and accommodating. We had a group of about 30, and the atmosphere was awesome. Highly recommend.
Had a great time! Staff was really friendly. We should have booked 2 hours instead of 1....went to fast.
Great atmosphere and friendly, helpful staff. I would definitely recommend this to others because of how fun it is. I will be back for sure!
This is the best place in Columbus to throw Axes, hands down. Great lanes and equipment even for pros, accompanied by A+ staff who are great help for beginners.
It is a great place to go if you already have some experience, because they leave you to it.
On the other hand, at the rate they charge... We asked to have one of the targets replaced and they wouldn't do it.
Super fun! Very friendly staff.
We had a great time! The staff was friendly and helpful our coach Colin was the best! We will be back.
Tons of fun. Chill atmosphere with a helpful staff that knows when they're needed and when they're not. A good activity to do "something different." Will be back
Great time! Our girls loved it!
Interesting concept and staff was friendly. I was part of a group which made it more enjoyable. Need to bring your own food and drink.
Excellent location, excellent venue, awesome customer service, and fun for all. We will definitely return and bring friends as it's a great environment for socializing!
Dan was a great host
Very fun, Mike was so helpful and really good at explaining for our first time experience! Definitely will return :)
What a cool experience! The staff was very good at coaching and directing as needed. We will definitely be back.
Kiiya was great!!(:
Went there for my brother's bachelor party and had a blast. The staff is great. Would highly recommend
The BEST place to celebrate a birthday, work event, or a Friday evening! Staff was friendly and helpful and our group of 20 had a great time!
Lots of fun! Nick was an amazing host! Definitely check it out!
Fun for a group of less than athletic people. The byob and byof actually was a convenient thing for anyone who knows how to plan ahead.
Showed up late they were still very nice had every thing set up and ready and helpful!
Thanks Dan had fun
So much fun!! I took my boys (age 13 and 11) and it was a blast!!
We had such a fun night at Dueling Axes! The employees were super helpful and helped make the whole experience wonderful!
Staff is wonderful, helpful, and patient. Atmosphere is inviting. We had a great time and will be back often!
This place is a real blast of a time. Went here with some co-workers and we had the time of our lives. Very helpful and friendly staff as well!
Went on a rainy Wednesday at 5 when it was slow, so it was pretty mellow. Staff were friendly and we had a lot of fun.
So much fun! Staff is awesome and makes you feel comfortable! Will for sure be back!
I had my bachelor party here and Mike was awesome!! If you choose Dueling Axes you will never regret it!!
Staff is super friendly, they teach you tricks and tips and the facility is clean, light and fun.
What a great axe throwing establishment. The best in Columbus. They teach you and you do it without being one upped instructor like other places around the city.
Went for my girlfriends 30th birthday. Great staff. Great fun. Highly recommended!
Fun fun. I would do it again
You get to throw axes AND drink beer she said... Well, when she's right, she's right!
Had a blast!
Had a great time! The guys there do a great job of instruction and coaching. Highly recommend!
This was such a blast, Love Dueling Axes need to go back!
Such a great time trying something new for us, we all had a great time and plan on many return trips with more friends!
I recently went for an OSU Alumni event. What an awesome and unique addition to Columbus- fun atmosphere, friendly staff, and a great time!
Julie was awesome!
Wow - do this! Anyone can have fun here. Bring family, friends, or a date. Friendly staff, cool facility, and you can BYOB and food.
Awesome spot. Staff was awesome. Bring snacks and lots of good beer and tip your Axing Attendants.
Had a lot of fun throwing axes at a corporate event. It was safe, the instruction was good, and the team games were fun.
Julie was great!
Awesome place!! Held my husband’s 40th birthday party here and it was so fun!!
The training was super helpful, made for a really nice time with just me and my dad! Best axe throwing in Columbus!
We had a great time and the staff was informative!
Awesome place, awesome time. Very friendly staff. Great music selection. Epic place for a 1st date.
Julie was great!
Had a great time and the staff were very helpful in teaching us the best way to throw as Axe!
Really fun thing to do with my friends. Staff were super helpful and welcoming.
We had an amazing time, I think I found something that I can beat my husband at. But we would come back
We had a fun family experience!!
Very fun. Nice coaching. But bring food or drink in with you.
We had a blast! Staff was very friendly
Definitely worth a try. Really great staff and a fun experience.
We had 11 people with us and the staff there took great care of us. Everyone had a great time
This was so much fun! I totally recommend it. It is something new to do with a group of friends.
Love having dueling axes at Brew Dog on canal today - the company and people are the best
Julie was AMAZING!
Great place. Wish they served alcohol, It's BYOB. Bathrooms are challenging to find there in the adjacent building.
I had a fun time. Everyone is very nice and helpful. It's a bit overpriced for what it is.
We had a great instructor and the experience was so much fun!
Dan is awesome!
Nice place, clean. Not a massive facility, but that's a good thing. Felt like and was a fun place to hang.
Lots of fun. This place will help you get some frustrations out all while having fun with friends.
Excellent time! The axes are pretty light, which was nice if you're an out-of-shape potato like me.
Josh helped me throw
Dan is awesome!
What a fun time! Employees are very friendly and has a GREAT time! Will go back!!!
Dan is great!
Awesome staff, awesome fun, awesome time! Great group activity.
Julie was great
Dan was great
The staff is great and every time I go it's a blast!
If you don't have fun throwing an axe, something is wrong with you. It's a blast!
Great time for a group event and very responsive management.
Throw safely, my friends
It's a fun experience, but a bit expensive. Staff was very knowledgeable and kind!
Just opened—super awesome! It’s byob but you can grab beer nearby at a gas station.
Here for great friends bachelorette party 👰 lots of family and friends!! Everyone is having a wonderful time trying to throw axes 😊 …
Amazing time. A great team building exercise! The staff is friendly and helpful.
We had a blast throwing for my bachelorette party!!
Fun group activity, nicely set up. Staff seemed to know what they were doing.
Dan is the best!
Dan is the cooliest
Fun! Bring your own food & drinks
Nice place to go to but does not offer food or drinks unless you order to deliver.
fantastic staff... great location.. bring your A game as the competition is fierce!
My first time and I had a ball...
Liked it so much that my girlfriend and I got matching axe tattoos later in the night
Highly recommended. This is a great venue and a fun event!
Would be nice if they had food and drinks there but was a fun time
Amazing. A wonderful evenings with friends, beer, dogs and axes. Can't wait to go back.
