First of all, service was excellent. Attentive but not overwhelming. And they took great care of my dog too! Great view, right on the river where we watched tons of recreational boaters entering and leaving Lake Huron. Now, we weren't there to toss axes, but you could if you wanted. We were just there to eat and enjoyed the food. I had a bison burger- juicy and perfectly cooked. My wife enjoyed two tacos (shrimp and brisket) and a blue slushie drink that she said was tasty and fun.

He finished his entire meal so I guess he liked it.

ABSOLUTE - BEWARE---Hello my fellow axe friends and well the public in general. I moved to Michigan…read moreabout three years ago and found Total Axe. I met a nice woman by the name of Andrea and I thought that the girls axe league would be a place for me. I made friends, did things with some of the girls, even Andrea and thought I found my safe space. I got along with everyone. I even got a morale award and fun player to throw axes against award over my time there. The banter was always good. It was always a light night of laughter and giggles. I even brought my daughter with me from time to time and she loved it. I ended up making my own group of girls from axe that I see regularly, which I'm thankful for. I have been gone this last season so maybe now about seven weeks and as I was getting ready to re-sign up for the new season, I get this blindsided email with absolutely no information, no facts, nothing. I was very surprised, hurt..though this is Chris's demeanor so there is that. What's surprised me the most is there was no call to me. No text, no asking me to come in and have a conversation to see if there is any merit to what the email alleges. This is very shameful of Total Axe to not actually have a conversation first with both sides being that it's all alleged. Multiple people had a problem with me... great present the facts, something. Why I am putting this out here is because I want people warned of how this small business handles situations. They presume you guilty and that's that. The ladies that go there, I wish you all the best and will miss the camaraderie, the conversations, the banter . I hope to see you outside that hostile environment. Needless to say this was not OK the way this was handled. No one deserves this. I never laid a finger on anyone and never have I threatened anyone. I am sure I am missing some. Hi Felicia, This is to inform you that, effective immediately, you can no longer participate in leagues or activities at Total Axe. This decision has been made after considering multiple complaints and concerns regarding your conduct towards other members here. This decision is final and we will not discuss or debate it further. I wish you the best Chris Ross Total Axe There are other victims. Please beware.

Then after instruction and practice (2 people per one instructor) we took turns throwing our axes. Even those of us that were hesitant to try, really started to enjoy the experience! Then they brought out the Chinese stars... To some, they looked intimidating... but one after another we started to try them. Some preferred stars, some preferred axes. At the end of the day, it was a great, low key activity that was appropriate and fun for all adults (age 23-65 in our party) and fitness levels! Great instruction! Highly recommend

This is a Yelp recommendation. These places are great for team building. The more games and events,…read morethe better. Competitions, choosing who excels at what skill and such. I would prefer no alcohol, however, since this was a volunteer participation activity for the crew, it was everyone for themselves. The gang started off on the first floor at the lounge. There's a large variety of games to get things started, even on the walls, themselves. There's also a cafe with a few pretty good food options. Eventually, we migrated to the second floor and began wielding the axes. If you've read my previous writings you'll understand why I was disqualified and Marshalled the events. FWIW, at the end I threw against the top axe chucker and thoroughly cleaned his clock. This should garner me creds amongst the younger folk. Back downstairs for more snacks, drinks and the results. Thanks to the folks at Detroit Axe for an incredible experience. This will most likely be an annual event. 11/25

The boys say I'm very accurate and could do very well in competition. I can't exactly say why it's such a good time throwing an axe at a target. It's awkward at first; but once you get the hang of it, it's quite easy. My favourite joke being "No drinking and axe throwing". It turns out that there is. They have beers, craft/draft/domestic cans and other spirits available. We don't really indulge in it, but nice to know you can get all liquored up and chuck an axe at the wall. Maybe the location for your next party? The key to this is the hands-on assistance. Axe masters Steve (great name) and Miranda take the time to teach you. It's not all hatchets; they have other items to throw like knives and big axes. Pro Tip: Call for a reservation. Especially if you have a larger group. If you can, bring a smaller group of people. Four worked great for us! A two hour package is perfect. Time for a lesson, plenty of time to throw! 11/24

He answered our questions, explained the rules well reinforced safety and I think he enjoyed our competitive banter! The hour went by quick, because we were having fun. There are bottled/ canned adult beverages, pop and water in a small cooler, a sitting area near the entrance and higher tables closer to the stalls where the action is. But I found the bar height chairs uncomfortable and stood instead: I'm 6'1" and the bar to rest your feet on was too high up (my knees weren't comfortable) Plus tables nearby if your party is larger. 2nd sitting area in back and 2 gender neutral restrooms which are accessible for those with mobility limitations. It's very spacious inside and not really noisy, out of the 6 throwing stalls I think 4 of them were occupied this early Saturday evening. They played good music too! Lots of parking as they're in a strip of businesses and handicapped parking is available in the lot. But depending on where you park you're likely going 150 feet to the entrance which has no steps, except for curb to walkway which also has ramped areas. I don't know about prices because the activity was a Christmas present and the same person bought my drink. But I had a great time and would recommend you come check it out. I'd say it's adults only due to the dimensions of space/ target etc. But call ahead and ask them for their recommendations/ rules.

I know there's another location in Detroit, but it's so nice to finally have one in Ann Arbor and conveniently right beside not one but two bars! Did I mention it's cheaper than the other locations too? Only $35 an hour? Score! Perfect for a date night and perfect for a big group trying to go out.
