    This was our first stop upon arriving in Nashville and it did not disappoint. We went early afternoon and the place was pretty empty. We didn't end up trying any of the food but they had a pretty large food and drinks menu. The place itself was very nice and clean and great for larger parties. The pricing was fair and overall we had a good experience. Would recommend to anyone interested visiting Nashville for the first time.

    We came here to throw some axes, but of course ordering a few snacks and drinks...the staff here are super nice and our sever was serving us and coaching us how to throw axes. When we were there, they were not busy, so he took time to show us and correcting us what not to do. I became an "axe-pert" now. Food was typical bar food...good enough for this kind of setting. They also have live music...

    Enjoying the great weather while throwing axes.

    We had a small group on vacation in Nashville and wanted to take a "Broadway break" so we decided to go axe throwing. This place was within walking distance to our hotel. It was a GREAT place! It was a beautiful day so we asked to use the outdoor stalls. We had the whole area to ourselves (on a Tuesday afternoon). Our trainer, bartender, server (male) Sam was amazing. He was extremely attentive and patient with our group and made us feel super comfortable. This place is pretty large, has a full bar, great menu options, and CLEAN bathrooms. I would highly recommend when you're in downtown Nashville and your liver needs a break from Broadway. 5-star all the way!

    We only tried the soft pretzel to snack on. It was good - surprisingly, it was cooked with a LOT of butter! Tasted more like table bread than a pretzel in my opinion. Our group had sodas, beers, and margaritas. The margs were especially good. The axe throwing was a fun activity. You can rent a space by the hour, which was just enough time for two games for our party of 5. Service is excellent. Adam, our server / coach / judge / hype man, was super friendly and made it a great experience. We visited on a Friday during the day, so there was plenty of space available. I can see it being pretty packed on the weekends or evenings. However, we were happy for it to be on the quieter side so that we didn't have loud groups in the areas on the sides of us. Would recommend as a unique thing to do in the area!

    We have done axe throwing at home in Boston so we decided to go here. Was a fun time and staff was very nice and educated you on techniques and how to have fun safely!

    Bullseye!

    After a day of shopping my friends and I were looking for something fun to do. We decided to give axe throwing a shot and we had the best time! The staff was very helpful in giving us tips and pointers on how to hold/throw the axe as well as giving great menu recommendations. This is a great spot and a great alternative to a regular restaurant.

    Came here to watch the Manchester City vs. Newcastle Futbol game. The vibes were awesome. The food matched the vibes. Their beer I've been told is pretty tasty and the food was even better. They have available gluten-free options and I have to say they were pretty great. The salad with brisket (which was amazingly tender and fatty) and the tater tots were highlights for sure. We did not try the axe-throwing but from what I observed of other parties participating, it seems like a good time. Sam was our server and she was attentive, kind, and overall wonderful. I highly recommend coming here if you need a fun night out or if you are a Futbol fan looking for a great place to watch the next game.

    Great staff. Decent drinks. Pretty good chow. The axes are nice and the lanes are good. Clean and easy to find. Live music on occasion.

    This was a really fun double date for my husband and I and our couple friends. We paid 42 dollars per person for two hours of play. They have bar-type food available: pretzels, fries, burgers, chicken tenders. They also have beer and mixed drinks. Prices and quality are as expected and get the job done. Each lane has a server/coach. Ours was Casey, who was nice, attentive, and gave us regular feedback on how to throw the various axes and knives. She answered all my questions without hesitation. The facility is clean, tons of windows and space. Seating and lounge spaces throughout. Parking on site. They change the boards out regularly. There was some maintenance going on while we were there. They also have live entertainment some evenings. I feel we got a lot for the value and would love to do it again.

    My buddy threw a "No kids. Adult happy hour" here for about 10 of us and it was blast. Easy check-in and waiver signing, quick, but detailed instructions on throwing the axes, and then we were off to the races! It was a little tricky throwing the axes at first, but once I switched to single handed versus the two hands set up, I was a bullseye hitting mofo. I think there are about 16 throwing lanes here with plenty of space to hang and mingle. I do suggest making a reservation, because by the time we left the place was pretty packed and it was a Wednesday! The bar area is awesome and is right next to the stage area. There's an amazing view of DT and the Convention center from the bar and I believe there's an outdoor space as well. The food was ok, just some basic bar foods; cheese curds, sliders, etc. The parking here is tight and there is a lot of construction happening around here as well. So be prepared to circle the block for a space. Super fun experience and I highly recommend trying it!

    This place is an absolute blast! We were in town visiting from Indiana and had our cousins visiting from Europe with us. Staff was so friendly, and were great coaching us on how to throw better! Cocktails and appetizers were delicious and it was a great place for any size group. Fun painted murals and decor made it a great spot even for a quick drink and photo opp! We loved it and will definitely be back!

    Bad Axe from a Bad A**
    Rich R.

    Bad Axe is Bad A**. What a great experience, the atmosphere was vibrant and the staff as super super friendly and helpful (Ashley). A great place for a family, friends or colleagues. Axe throwing isn't as hard as you'd think and actually a great time. You wouldn't expect the food to be anything but substance here but it was actually pretty good. The pork nachos and fried pickles were delicious! This place is worth checking out we had a great experience.

    Mac & cheese with chicken & tator tots, and Blu Ox drink
    Fabiola R.

    The food was good but the service and drinks not so much. I visited the restaurant with a large group on a Friday night so we were mindful of a possible wait time because it was a busy night and we had a large party. However our server was rude (abruptly handing us or placing our plates on the table) and we didn't really feel welcomed while visiting. There were other big parties there as well and we seemed to be the only ones to receive the bad service. The axe throwing experience was fun and the staff member who helped us was very kind and helpful in the process. Ps. You need to wear closed-toe shoes in order to axe throw, but they also have boot rentals if needed. If you're visiting, I recommend the Mac & cheese plate!

    Nailed it!

When we…read morevisited 14TENN, it was completely under construction in the dead of winter with obviously no heat or electricity. We bundled up in coats and scarves, and walked around the empty construction site at night with our iPhone flashlights 14TENN only consisted of some raw wood, a few original beams and a wonderful owner named Sean, who had no staff hired in Nashville yet. But we knew we HAD to get married there. We could see their vision and it matched ours. BEST DECISION EVER. I mean look at this place. And their customer service.. Over the top!! I could go on for days. Just know, the insanely beautiful space is just the icing on the cake. It's the people there that make this place what it is. Which leads me to our wedding coordinator Kaitlynn Montgomery. An angel in human form. This girl, y'all. I messaged her at least once a week with another ridiculous idea. And she encouraged me on every single one of them. Anyone who knows me knows how annoyingly Type A I am and how I prefer to do things myself and plan every detail to nauseam. Kaitlynn took SO much off my plate. If I asked her about something or suggested something, she had already taken care of it 3 days prior. She was always 5 steps ahead of me at all times. She single handily took my stress level down 1,000 notches on a daily basis. Every single last detail or idea that we came up with for this wedding would absolutely have never been possible without Kaitlynn. She brought it all to life. And Ellyse.. Her and Kaitlynn worked their butts off together on our wedding day and it was perfect. Every time I saw Ellyse that day, she was smiling ear to ear and it immediately put my nerves at ease. These two girls are just the absolute sweetest and SO freaking good at their jobs. Now, one of the most important guy of the night... Our alcohol and bar concierge, Hunter!! I remember calling him one day thinking, he is going to kill me and I'm about to make him hate his job I was like, So I was thinking about cocktail hour and how it would be cool to serve hand-crafted blueberry mojitos named after our dog in 150 coconut cups with stir sticks that have our dog's face on them. Oh and I want them all displayed on shelves with signs and the whole works. He was like, hell yeah, you got it. Not only that, he insisted on pulling out all the tricks. Infusing his own simple syrup with mint and having us over TWICE to taste the recipe and make sure it was perfect. He loves his job and it shows. He took full ownership of the bar and making sure we didn't even have to think about it. THANK YOU HUNTER!!! In summary,14TENN was an absolute dream come true and we cannot recommend them enough. Thank you for EVERYTHING. We love y'all!

We decided to not use a wedding planner, and Elizabeth and Samantha were top notch helping us plan such a large undertaking. At our first meeting with Elizabeth she had a folder with recommended vendors. We felt the best part about Houston Station is that ALL of the vendors are in the building, they are used to working seamlessly together, and Elizabeth has long standing relationships with them. At our planning meetings, Elizabeth and the vendors were finishing our sentences! That is how much they anticipated our needs. By the end of the wedding, we felt like Elizabeth and the staff were family. Elizabeth is no nonsense, runs a tight ship, and has the biggest heart of gold. She is a HUGE Alabama fan, and my husband is a HUGE Auburn fan. Of course we were married on the Iron Bowl. Elizabeth set up the grooms room with a TV for the game so my husband could watch it until the last minute. Even in the face of Alabama's loss to Auburn, she knew how special it was for my husband, and she graciously played along. Clearly, I can't say enough about the venue and the people.

Located in a converted warehouse Jeff and his business partners have created the ideal location that is tucked away south of downtown. From the outside, Houston Station doesn't appear to be anything at all. Was I surprised when I walked up the stairs! A mix of exposed wood and brick generates a very comfortable feel for this space which accommodates about 250 to 300 people. Forget all of the fussy rules, Jeff who is the facility manager emphasizes the flexibility and versatility of the event space. The space is handicap accessible and when you rent, you get the building for the entire day. A great kitchen and private rooms for preparation enhance the characteristics of the station to make other vendors happy. Also, a fantastic little outdoor terrace would be a fabulous place to chill in warmer weather. The possibilities are seriously endless!
