WE WILL NOT BE RETURNING UNTIL THE REAL DART BOARDS GO BACK ON THE WALLS!!!!!!!!!!!…read moreWe usually love 8ball because it's the ONLY spot in town with a real dart board and the right vibe. darts are usually free and it's great, we come with our friends all the time. unfortunately, i had to walk into the bar yesterday and see the plastic abomination on the wall. our favorite bouncer agreed that it's ridiculous and the new plastic electronic dart boards were malfunctioning. we cannot allow this to go on!!!! please give us back the real deal!!! not everyone wants to stare at bright neon lights while they throw darts. this is an abomination.

I don't know what happened, but for whatever reason this place has turned into a crazy busy college…read moretown kind of bar on some of the weekends. Mostly extended weekends when everyone is back in town to see family and friends. During the day, week, and a lot of weekends, it's just your typical less populated dive. They only accept cash, so you have to be prepared for that, but the drinks are ridiculously cheap and they don't skimp on the pour to make up for it. Cocktails... not really their specialty. This place is used to beer drinking regulars and people who want their liqueur straight up. They'll make you one, just don't have high expectations because this is not that kind of bar. There is a pool table and bar food. No full kitchen so the menu isn't overly impressive, but booze is more of their specialty. The staff is older and can be kind of crotchety, but that's usually if it's one of the crazy nights that all these young kids randomly show up. They weren't that kind of bar, I don't think the staff knows why these kids keep coming back, and they are slowly learning to embrace it. If you're a laid back person, looking for a cheap drink and a random conversation with a stranger at the bar, this is your kind of place. I've met some really off the wall folks and the regulars can keep you entertained for hours if you strike up a conversation with one... don't expect half of their tales to be true, but enjoy the ride.

We were setup with our two lanes despite the word not making it to the check-in guy that we had previously made reservations for our date and time. He quickly made arrangements to accommodate the eight of us. Our pizzas were hot and extra cheesy. Exactly what you want from bowling alley 'Za! I ordered some mozzarella sticks as well and it came with two ranch cups. Wowza the ranch was super zesty and delicious! At $9.99 for six sticks and two ranch cups it's a bit pricey but totally worth it! The place was clean, tables were tidy and everything was functional. We will return.

It's the only bar I've ever been to where there's no cars in the parking lot but 50 people in the place. Go here get smashed have fun. Wake up with money in your wallet. Just bring a dd. no cabs in this town.

I came to Axe Play for the first time yesterday to attend my first WATL Marathon Event since moving…read moreto Michigan and I've gotta say, what a WONDERFUL experience! The owner and staff were all wonderful and super on top of things, having guests play actual WATL style games which is so much more fun than the normal blackjack style games I usually see venues push. The venue was beautiful and spacious, offering I believe 6 different ranges, 12 lanes total. The venue was clearly well maintained and both the community and the employees made it an even better time than usual, moving things quickly. I love that they even ordered us lunch and allowed us a break, as someone who has to fully stop to eat, that was a huge perk for me. This venue also offers snacks, a mocktail menu, and a full bar- liquor, wine, and beer! That's pretty impressive as I've yet to experience an axe venue that offered liquor before yesterday. Overall, would absolutely recommend this venue for anyone looking to throw for their first time or for seasoned throwers like myself. Had an amazing time and hope to come back some day if I'm local!

Had wanted to try this place for years, but never were passing through Jackson at a time they were…read moreopen. Last Saturday we finally were, so in we went. It's a very inconspicuous location, squeezed in between two truck depots. The building looks--inside and out--like it could be someone's workshop. At least if someone hung cool original art on their workshop's walls and set up a pool table. When we stood in front of the bar looking at the draft menu, a couple sitting nearby offered to scooch down so we could get barstools. Friendly folks=good start. We tried samples of a black IPA and rye IPA. Both were good, but we went with the rye for a pint. Nice and hoppy with just a little sharpness, good body. Had a bit of a drive in front of us, so we got a crowler of the black to go. Interesting beer selection, with two strong Scottish ales and many IPA variants. Plus alcoholic fruit slushees if that's your thing. We're mulling a run to Jackson purposefully to sample more of their offerings.

Great beer choices. IPAs, Vanilla Porters, Hefeweizens and other beer choices were on tap. I had…read morethe porter and the Hefeweizen. Liked both. Also had two seltzer slushes available. They had music bingo that night. I sat at the bar and watched some football and read some. They offer snacks for $1 (peanuts, pretzels, popcorn and more). They encourage you to bring in food which I like since that lets them focus on the beer. Bar tender was ready for me and served well.
