The Horse's Axe - Denton

If you're looking for something fun and unique to do in the North Dallas/Denton area, I highly, highly, highly recommend you try this place out. My daughter and I have wanted to try Axe Throwing for a long time now. We were looking for something fun to do on a Saturday night, and she remembered she heard about this place, so she called them and reserved us a booth.We arrived 15 minutes early to sign wavers and watch a quick safety video. After that, Eric took us over to our booth and gave us a lesson on throwing, as well as showed us the different ways to throw the Axe. Once we were comfortable, Eric let us loose, but stayed nearby incase we needed him. It took us a couple of games to really get the hang of it, and once we figured it out, the fun just kept on coming.They have multiple games to choose from to keep things interesting: bullseye, tic tack toe, zombies, connect 4, and more. After your Axe Throwing session, you can keep the fun rolling in their Billiards room with a game of pool. They also have drinks, snacks, and some pretty cool swag for sale as well.The staff here is amazing. Everyone was extremely welcoming, friendly, and helpful. Eric initially taught us how to throw and kept us entertained and engaged throughout the entire experience, which was a added benefit.I HIGHLY recommend this location for tons of fun, to blow off some steam, for special occasions, or just because... you'll really have a blast! Just make sure to wear closed toe shoes, or you can't throw.Thanks guys, we will be back!

First time axe thrower. The staff gave us a rundown on how to throw and didn't leave until we were comfortable. There were multiple target games we could play, but had to track score with a mouse/cursor. The staff would check on us every few minutes to make sure we were doing alright and made casual conversation.You can bring food into the establishment but not drinks as they have a good amount of canned beers. They do have snacks and random items (koozie, axe koozie, shirts, etc.) for sale.There is also four pool tables in the opposite room of the axe throwing room. It's nice to have two games at one place to mix it up a bit. It's a small place and wasn't busy when we were there, but could be a nice hangout for a bunch of friends.

Great fun tossing axes and kicking asses on their large and nice pool tables. Good places for friends and family with a great staff!

Everyone was so friendly and helpful!The instructions were super helpful. They watch how you throw and then provide you with tips on how to improve if you suck like me! I was getting tired after about 40 minutes, but then we learned how to do underhand and it was so much more fun!They have a large variety of drinks, but since we don't consume alcohol, we opted for a canned soda. It's a bit pricey at $2.50 for a can, but whatever.Overall it's something different and a lot of fun!

I went on a date here and not gonna lie. The outside could use a little work, but it's the definition of don't judge a book by it's cover. The moment you go inside it's actually really nice and well designed. Was quickly met by two employees, Jessica and Connor whom were super informative and super friendly as if we'd been friends for a while. They helped get us set and helped us with any tips and questions and made everything go smoothly. I only wish they had a kitchen for some hot appetizers, but still a 10/10 for me.

This place is great! Sundays are family throw days. My 7 and 9 year old had a blast! The staff is friendly and funny. They have a huge drink selection from beer to seltzer to pop. I have been there 3 times already. Throwing axes is challenging but easier than you would think. I live watching the staff try trick shots. They also have billiards. I highly recommend it!

Awesome place, Took my buddies for a birthday and were shocked to learn they would get to keep the axe definitely a 1 up on other places. the pool area is really chill with great music and easy going drink selection. cant wait to go back.

It was fabulous! Had a great time! Chips and axe throwing was fantastic!!!!! I would recommend this business.

The Horse's Axe was a terrific experience! The staff were all super friendly, knowledgeable, and interesting! They chatted with our group, explained throwing techniques, and even gave us one-on-one pointers about how to improve our aim. I didn't really think axe-throwing would be my thing, but they made it a lot of fun and kept everything safe and welcoming. An added bonus is that they know so much about Denton and Texas history that it was an all-round fun night as well as an unexpected opportunity to learn a lot of cool history about Texas and the North Texas area. I didn't have food because we were heading to dinner afterward, but the beers (and beer recommendations) were great! And being able to keep the axe was awesome! I'm new to the area and got separated from my group and they even figured out where I was supposed to go and gave me easy-to-follow directions to get there. Thank you, awesome team at The Horse's Axe! Five stars!

Had a great time here! Loved the atmosphere, was very laid back and the staff are incredibly helpful and friendly. If you're looking for something different, check this place out! They also have pool, which we played while waiting for our alley to throw axes, and they were especially helpful in getting us comfortable with throwing the axes.I also really liked the digital system they have for scoring and the options for games above and beyond simply trying to hit the center every time.We will definitely be back again!
