My team and I decided to switch it up for our annual holiday gathering. Needless to say we discovered a new talent and love for axe throwing. I would highly recommend for anyone looking to try something new.

Good idea in theory, but the actual experience was lackluster. We paid $30 for 30 minutes in the rage room. We were given 3 boxes of plates to smash, which we finished within ~10 minutes. We were then told additional plates are $20 per box. We asked the employees if we could have a cup of water, but they do not serve tap water. The only water available to purchase were bottles of sparkling water. We didn’t even end up using all 30 minutes of our reservation time since there was nothing left to smash. Staff are also very miserable, I felt bad for them. Would not return.

I went for the rage room and the equipment they had to cover yourself was faulty (my friend had a big hole in her suit that we didn’t notice til later) and one of the rooms had their cameras broken. We had paid extra for the recording and although that was communicated at the front desk the guy in charge of the rage rooms had no idea and put us in the room with the broken camera, which is why I rate the service at 2. The room took 45 minutes past our reservation time to get ready as well.

Terrible experience. Do not go. I repeat do not go. They give you a small crate of abt ten plates to smash for 60 + tax.

Awesome place to spend a great time with your team. The crew there engages with you and is quite patient to assist you even when you're throwing an axe as a debutant.

This is exactly what we needed!!! The staff were fantastic and glass breaking is incredibly satisfying!!!

The Employee will steal your items!!!

There are several reasons for the 1 star review. The safety equipment are extremely lacking, zipper coming off, helmet ill fitted coupled with the lack of AC in the room for you to break 8 plates. If I could give a zero star, I would tbh. The employee will search your property and only return the stolen item after you’ve threatened to call the police. Proceed with caution

I’m not sure this place is safe for people because nothing is in good condition, it’s not clean for sure and is way too expensive for the 2 mins it takes to break the 5 items you get!

Took my boyfriend here for us to let out some rage after a loss. The rage room experience itself was good.

However, the safety gear did not seem safe, smelled horrific and were dirty. They should be washing the jumpsuit after each customer. We felt so gross putting everything on. The helmet and ear muffs were disgusting. There were Lysol wipes to use in which we did and the amount of dirt that came off was gross. We wanted to get drinks somewhere after but we had to run home and shower instead.

Furthermore, the male that assisted us was on the phone with headphones in and did not explain anything to us. We walked in and he handed us the smelly jumpsuits then he walked off. The other female that was there was kind and noticed us just standing there confused and explained where he went.

I would not recommend this place or go back. We would have left but were there and already paid for the experience.

So small and way too expensive, what a joke

Zach Leventer

Kraken was a blast for drinks and axe throwing. It was our first time and there was an amazing employee Alexey who was able to guide us through how to throw axes. Alexey made the experience. Thanks again for the wonderful experience.

Lots of big heavy wrenches and hammers to break things, good safety gear, great music selection! It didn't take us long to break the stuff we selected, but we learned you can also bring your own stuff to break!
