Staff were friendly, but we're loudly talking the entire time - there are no ceilings so I heard everything.

To be honest, I was missing variety in the types of puzzles and the physicality in the tasks I needed to perform. Most of the tasks centered around logic puzzles in the room I escaped from. The one room floor plan limits the creativity and doesn't truly allow for a better experience relative to other escape rooms I've tried. This location is very convienent being in the mall I was already in. The folks are very friendly and helpful as well when I needed clues. There is Axe Throwing available as well.

We had a great time in a Sunday evening: fun axe games, friendly service and a bar/pool if you're…read moreinterested. This place is different than other axe places because they have a variety of games that you can play (similar to bejeweled, tic tac toe, wheel of fortune, uploading a picture of something or someone you want to throw an axe on, etc). It definitely mixes things up from just throwing at a target. You get a quick lesson upfront which was enough since we've done it before (still not great though). They have two different weights in axes. You can choose an hour ($25 pp) or two. We didn't have to reserve in advance but if you do there's a deposit. The place looked very dim from the outside but you can either park in the back or in front of some other stores in the front. There's a pool and video game area in the back but it was inhabited by a group of dudes and seemed a bit dated in there. The main strip is pretty busy with a lot of chain stores and restaurants.

Perfect spot for a small birthday gathering! We had a group of 6 come here after Brunch on a…read moreSaturday. Location was easy to find, and plenty of parking on scene. I want to say they had about 6 lanes for axe throwing? Could be totally wrong. A staff member spends the hour with you, but kind of in the background, they're not annoying and just lingering. They show you safe and proper techniques for throws, and then just step to the side. After some regular throws we were taught some trick shots, and then played some games. I wasn't thinking much of axe throwing when it was mentioned as a birthday game plan, but it was actually a ton of fun. For all my competitive athletes, this is the place to go. I would definitely return again

I decided to stop by the Lazy Axe for some random Saturday fun and I am glad I did…read more As a walk in, I paid $27 for a full hour of axe time which came with a friendly and helpful "Axepert" who showed me the best ways to throw the axes, critiqued my form, and had me hitting bullseyes in no time! The staff in general were very friendly and enthusiastic about showing me ways to enjoy this relatively young sport originating from Canada. I learned that they host league nights, and that they even have someone who is nationally ranked that attends. His special throw is the, "canadian flick" (I think) which is where one leans in, and well... flicks the axe at the target. I learned there are many ways to throw an axe over the course of the hour so I was never bored and I felt like I had plenty of time to enjoy myself. There was the standard double handed over the head toss, the single handed toss (my favorite), the flick, the underhanded trick shot, the double axe over head toss at two targets, same thing with the underhanded, and this really hard one where you sort of scissor a overhand and underhand at the same time at two different targets. I was... sort of successful at some of those but definitely would need to be a regular to get good enough to be consistent. They also taught me two or three games you can play with people in your group. So between the lessons, trick shots, and games, I had plenty of things to do for the hour I was there alone. Which if you think about it, is impressive. If I had been with a group, just talking and enjoying everyones company, that hour would have flown by. If you are looking for a fun and creative way to enjoy an hour with a date, or group of friends, or just solo, check this place out. Axe throwing is fun! They have a good online reservation system for groups which I recommend if you are planning to go with a large (4+) group because from what I hear, they can get busy. Especially in the evening time on a Saturday. Just remember to follow the rules, listen to your Axepert, be aware of your surroundings, and please, just don't be an asshole. These are nice people running a nice business with a fun name. No need to hit anything or anyone other than the actual targets with your axe which is really easy to do... when you are paying attention and nice. If you end up going you shouldn't forget to ask about their rewards card. 5-6 visits gets you a free hour. Honestly, I have spent $20-$30 dollars on some things where I had way less fun than what I got out of this experience. It was absolutely worth it and maybe even considering joining a league and socializing with a nice group of axe throwing folk one day. Visit, enjoy!

I've been here twice now, once years ago and once just this month (July 2026). After going…read morerecently, I decided it was time to write a review! Ownership has switched hands, and I believe I had a group on both times I went, if you're looking to save a few bucks. My only complaint (at all) would be that it was a little bit warmer than I would've liked, especially once you're moving around and actually doing any sort of activity. Now that that's over, let's talk about the good parts! The axe throwing is super fun, and we all enjoyed it after learning about the rules and safety tips then learning how to hold the axe correctly and throw it, and we continued to get pointers and help as needed if we were struggling throughout our allotted time. All of the stuff we encountered were friendly and personable. One great thing that we learned is a newer offering is that the pool tables, darts, and cornhole is now free! As in, pop in and buy a beer or a hard seltzer for a drink after a rough workday and relax and unwind with free activities in a clean indoor space! We will definitely be returning to take advantage because while I LOVE axe throwing, it could get expensive to do every week. The pizza place in there is different than it was the first time we went. And, it was actually not open when we went at 1 PM on a Saturday, which was fine for us because we had already eaten and had dinner plans later so we were not there for food. Our understanding is that it's a one-man show so there may only be pizza/the restaurant open during busy hours, as opposed to every time Montana Nights is open. Something to keep in mind if you're thinking about eating while visiting.

I'm so in love with you I'll be your saviour, steadfast and true I'll come to your emotional rescue" (Jagger and Richards) A professional organization I belong to was scheduled to hold an axe throwing party/charity fundraiser at Pine & Iron in Hartford last night. But two and a half days ago, they contacted us to cancel because they had closed their doors for good. We didn't want to cancel the event, so what were we to do? Well, Montana Nights came to our rescue and 20 of us had a blast. Our Guardian Angel was manager Carolyn, who worked in a slot for our group, arranged an instructor, pizza and sandwiches from Square Peg, and drink tickets from their bar (beer and axes, what could go wrong?). Anyway, we had a freaking blast at Montana Nights. Our instructor Kyle was great. He gave us a safety talk, demonstrated one hand and two hand throwing techniques, and broke us into two teams for some axe flinging fun. We threw at a conventional bulls eye target, an unconventional bulls eye target where the center moved around, and Tic Tac Toe and Connect Four variations. I threw ten axes in warm ups, and then 20 axes in two ten-frame 4-person team contests. I stuck one out of ten in the warm ups, just one in Game #1, but improved significantly by sticking 4 in the second game. I even had a center Bulls Eye!! By the way, the food from Square Peg was great - lots of different pizzas, grinders cut into fours, and a big salad. Thank you Carolyn and Kyle for saving our event. It was a charity collection event where our members donated new clothing, toys, and household supplies for Madonna House in Norwich, CT. I would love to see Yelp incorporate more of some sort of charity collections at our events. Sort of a "Pay It Forward" philosophy. Everyone can afford to bring a few cans of soup or tuna to donate to a group that needs them.

We picked a location that was the midpoint between my home in Connecticut and my parents' home in New York City. We couldn't have chosen a better place than Banana Cabana! From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by a staff member (I wish I had caught her name) who greeted us with a big smile. She gave an excellent demonstration on how to properly throw an axe, let us practice a few rounds, and provided helpful tips on positioning our arms and legs for the best results. The venue had a great drink menu with plenty of options, including non-alcoholic beer. We also loved the variety of games available Battleship was a favorite! Another fun touch was the TouchTunes music system, where we could purchase credits and play our favorite songs. We definitely took advantage of that! Overall, we had an amazing time and will 100% be returning if we're ever in the area again.

We drove a long distance to we went in to learn to throw some Axes. They seemed a bit short staff but in good spirits I saw a tiki bar and they had scannable QR codes on the tables but they bar and food options where closed as well so missed opportunity there. Axe throwing definitely will make you thirsty we did the 1 Hr option and would've signed up for more if there was a food and beverage option there. Only thing I didn't like is you pay for an hour but the staff started the timer before hand so we didn't get an actual hour they started the timer and then explained the rules to us and showed us how to throw it would make sense to do the tutorial and then start the timer once we are ready or once they are done explaining. All in all it was a fun experience with our group of friends definitely fun to do.
