    Took my son to the axe lounge for some father son bonding time. It was a great time! Sam was an amazing teacher and within minutes we were aiming and throwing axes and sticking them in the target. Then we played some games and finally a quick competition. Definitely you should do it.

    First time going to the Axe Lounge and it won't be our last! The owners Sam and Jace are welcoming and super friendly while maintaining a safe, fun environment. The facility was bright and clean and the couches in waiting area were comfortable. We definitely plan on going again!

    Had my son's 11th birthday here! Was fantastic - highly recommend! The place is very comfortable even for a large group. Sam and Katie were awesome - so fun and helpful in teaching everyone to throw and making it entertaining. This was new for most of us and we all felt safe. Excellent party for this age group!!!

    We had a really great time throwing axes at the Axe Lounge. The owners obviously love their business. They are super enthusiastic and set a great atmosphere. They gave great tips to beginners like us and showed their passion for throwing axes through how they want to share the activity with others. There were other parties there during our visit and we all definitely got enough attention from them. Also, the brown sugar bobba tea was delicious!

    Hubby took me out for a date night and it’s our first time throwing 🪓 axes. What an amazing experience. Sam walked us through a thorough mini training as it was our first time. Sam and Jace were so friendly and it felt like we’ve known them a long time! 15/10 recommend!! Can’t wait to come back with my gift card from the kill shot challenge!

    Everything was amazing Sam was very fun and helpful! Me and my boyfriend never did ax throwing before and once we left we were pros lol I don’t know the other lady’s name but she was also great and very helpful. Drinks were delicious as well would 10/10 recommend this place for a first date or just something fun to do with friends.

    They were very kind, friendly, and accommodating. We decided to go axe throwing as a “ladies night”. We had no idea really what we were doing. Brandon was informative, knowledgeable, patient…and, funny! His adlibs had us laughing. It was surely a night to remember. We did not feel rushed, we were attended to, had a lot of fun and a lot of throws in an hour! We did not try food or drink, but Sam the nice lady there offered local suggestions for after. Thanks Sam! She also noticed that the “normal” axes we were practicing with did not suit all of us so well and she brought out a special one to throw with, which boosted our confidence because it worked better! Thanks for a good time, highly recommend

    I often search for bubble/boba tea when I'm anywhere just to see what places I haven't tried, well when I was in Schenectady my search results pulled Axe Lounge up and I am stoked that it did!! First let me compliment the service and aesthetics, both were top notch and kept me smiling! The vibe is chill and there's an energy in there, I think the welcoming open space helps that. As for the boba, yeah I will definitely be going back to try the Taro and the PB&J bobas! It taste fresh and the boba had nice flavor and great consistency. And since for me it's a little bit of a trek for just boba I'll throw some axes next time! I'm looking forward to my visit back here!

    First time axe throwing and it was really time well spent . Sam and Jace were amazingly warm and accommodating . We have a little guy and they were so thoughtful to do a little makeshift axe throwing activity as well as teach us all safety and technique. Beautiful accommodations , just what i feel would be needed for a family Fun experience . Cost is well worth spent!

    We had a really great family experience throwing axes for the first time at The Axe Lounge. Our group ranged from 12 years old to 73, including one with limited mobility. The facility was comfortable and accessible, and the staff couldn’t have been more helpful and friendly. We all learned to successfully bury an axe in the target, and the boba drinks were a big hit! Highly recommended!

    This is a great spot! I went here today for some Sunday afternoon fun. We had a great time! Staff was helpful by letting us try different axes and helped us position ourselves better to get the best aim. We will be going there again.

    Had an awesome time and great experience! My husband and I went here with my co worker and her boyfriend. The place had a welcoming and relaxing atmosphere. Staff were really friendly and Sam was great at pointing out how to better our throwing once we got the hang of it. She also told us how to play a few games and left a fun challenge at the end. Coffee bar had tasty and interesting drinks. It was great we got to try it as they just opened it earlier this month! Definitely coming back and is a great way to get friends and family together!

    Staff was fun and informative. Paid about $25 hr per person. There were 5 of us and an hour was perfect. NOT as easy as you would think!! Lots of fun though!

    My fellow employees and I went here for a company 'funday'. Wow, what a great time! The folks running this establishment are super friendly and made our day truly an experience to remember. Thank you so much guys, I will definitely be coming back for more. Thanks for letting me hold the big axe for a trophy pic.

    My group of friends and family had so much fun while here. The workers were so friendly. The latte I had was unique and so delicious. It was my first time and they gave us a mini tutorial prior. What great fun! We would definitely do this again! 10/10 would recommend. 🙂

    Wonderful fun place! Sam was very helpful in diagnosing our throws and we had a blast. We were there for 2 hours and I'll definitely be heading back.

    The Axe Lounge is great! Brought our visiting family here and we had an amazing time! Even got Gram to throw one. Jace and Sam (hope I remembered those right) were incredibly nice and helpful with pointers for everyone. Can't wait to go back!

    We recently had a work teambuilding event at The Axe Lounge and it was fantastic. Jace and Sam were amazing in teaching us how to throw and leading us through some games. I would highly recommend it and we will be back!
