Board
Jessalyn S.

Walked in on a Saturday night around 8pm and they were almost wide open, only two other couples using the other lanes. They checked us in quickly and gave us a mini tutorial since it was our first time throwing axes. The place is clean and with lots of seating. The bar is also pretty long, though the bar drink menu is a little short. Classic cocktails and some draft beers. We each got an ax so it was nice not having to share one. Some of the wood panels were a little worn so it was harder to get the ax to stick so we ended up swapping lanes but otherwise it was a lot of fun. They give you a sheet with different types of games and we loved the tic tac toe one. If definitely got tiring after an hour but I couldve enjoyed a second session. It's a great spot for a casual date! I would come back if I'm in the area.

Board is completely eaten away

I've been to quite a few axe throwing establishments, so needless to say I was incredibly excited to come throw here, considering I live out of state. Pros: Insanely spacious, lots of bays available. No reservation needed and staff were friendly. Cons: not only were the axes insanely dull (as you can see pictured,) the boards were so eaten away that even if the axe was sharp, it would be hard to get it to stick. Even the staff took a few tries to get it to stick to the board. They tried watering the boards and it didn't help at all. Id say out of 50 throws, maybe 10 actually stuck. (Picture of the board also attached). The bounce in their mats were insanely dangerous. I'd say 85% of the time the axe came right back to our feet onto the tile. There was no interaction from the staff at all once we started. No games to play, no points explanation, nothing to keep score with. The whole point of axe throwing, similar to darts, is to keep score. Most places have a white board of some sort. In the bay next to us, someone threw an axe at the board and the entire board fell. Overall, I'd never come back to this location. Its certainly not worth the money. You do more bending down to pick your axe up off the ground than anything else. I'd be willing to go out on a limb and say the owners most likely don't have a passion for axe throwing and simply opened up the establishment because it was trendy and would make them money. It's possible that I came on a bad day, but I don't even live in the area to go back a second time.

Went here for my daughter's birthday! Who knew I birthed little Lizzie Borden! She was on fire getting bullseye after bullseye. You make a reservation online which can get confusing when entering the amount of people in your group. It is 44.00 per person and you have to pay a reservation fee to set. Apparently I had only paid for 4 people not 5. Anyways we had an excellent time. It was warm inside but outside was 114. We did have a wall of windows behind us. The staff was good the boards might need a little attention there were several loose ones and giant chunks coming out. I don't think that is supposed to happen. All in all we had fun and that's what counts. Parking can get crazy especially in west gate. They charge you either in an app or by vendor.

Woot woot!

Such a fun place, and an excellent addition to Westgate! The drinks are awesome, the staff has great customer service and even gives you a crash course in Axe Throwing before you start on your lane. Wether you come for date night or as a group with friends, you won't be dissatisfied by your experience here.

We have been to LumberjAxes so many times, so I had to give a review. It's so fun!! Make sure you wear close-toed shoes, as well. They are located in westgate, it's upstairs- close to where Fat Tuesdays is and the Desert Diamond arena. When you get there, make sure you arrive early to give time to the practice, bc once the clock starts you're on the clock. The attendant will go over safety and allow you to practice. There's diff kinds of games you can play and you could be there all day really with all the diff options. They have a great bar with tons of options and offer food as well. Price wise, not the cheapest, but worth it to splurge on a fun date night or experience. I've celebrated one of my bdays here too. Go check them out! And...they have pretty cool tee shirts for sale too!

Throwing axes can be fun but eat somewhere else. The food and the drinks are not good, service is good.

My second being here and I always have a great time here! However, it is more on the pricey side. We got our section right away since reservations are highly recommended. We had a nice waitress take care of us when we asked for waters. We didn't order any food so I can't mention anything there. The place does have that woods/lumberjack feel to it for sure. My party of four had a blast considering they never been here before. Overall, very fun place to visit in Glendale. Something different, yet fun.

Friend with his first bullseye.

Brutally honest. Had a great time, but the prices are way too high and the axes need more maintenance. Never thought we would actually have to reflect on the waiver we signed because an axe handle had a metal bur on it. Throwing the axe it sliced one of my party members hands, when we brought it up to the counter, they tried to help with some band-aides, but were very nonchalant about the injury. Truly makes me reconsider going to this location again. Also, paying a deposit... on your email receipt will say 4 people, but it's actually the price for 2 people. The whole paying per person and not just for a booth based on hours is a total scam. Now that I've written this far, find a cheaper place, you'll have just as much fun and not feel like you've been taken advantage of.

The spot

The last star is missing do to the prices. The staff was beyond helpful and very patient while teaching everyone the process. Crazy to think that there is a bar ready to serve while throwing Axes. Lumberjacks are pretty badass, can't imagine how they did it with much larger axes. The drinks were nice and the space was clean and well maintained. Plenty of room to move around. Super fun and you actually get a little bit of a workout. Once you get the hang of it becomes even more fun. I recommend it if your looking for something different to do with friends or a date. Will try the food next time.

Now we're cooking with gas

If you want to have fun at a place doing something new, I definitely recommend axe throwing. It's one of those activities that you could probably spend hours doing and easily lost track of time. Our instructor was awesome and the food and drinks were on point....so try it out. If you don't have fun here, get a therapist. Even if you suck...don't take it too seriously and laugh at your own ridiculousness. I created enough ridiculousness for two parties.

We had such a great time coming here with the family. We did a two hour session and had Spencer as our instructor, he was great! It was our first time there and we look forward to coming back next time.

Such a fun experience!! Never thought I would be interested in throwing an axe before LOL. The staff here is knowledgeable and helpful in teaching you and guiding you if you have any questions. They play fun music and serve drinks for such a vibrant ambiance. I would definitely recommend and definitely return in the future.

We had our daughter's 40th celebration at Lumberjacks. Mostly close family and friends and they all loved it. They felt it was very intimate there. Not real chaotic. Those that did the axe throwing loved it. The food was good, except they were out of Caesar dressing for the Caesar salad and the Nachos were good, but cold when they came out. The customer service was GREAT! Every person that worked there , front desk, bartender, waitress all were so great! The were so flexible and we're great with our entire group! Thanks Lumberjack's! It was a fun night for all!

My husband ordered a large and my sister and I ordered smalls. When we got our bill the large beer was the same price as the small beers. Why didn't Vanessa tell us the large beers were on happy hour and were the same price as the small beers! Duh? We all wanted Beyond Burgers (my husband had cancer and was put on a plant based diet). Vanessa said she didn't think the Beyond Burgers were available anymore. She goes to check and comes back and said they are still available, . We all ordered cheeseburgers with the Beyond patties. We had to modify it without cheese or mayo but we all wanted the caramelized onions. My sister wanted verification that the onions were cooked and Vanessa said that they were. When we got our food which took a long time to get; it was luke warm and no caramelized onions. Vanessa said the cheeseburger doesn't come with caramelized onions! What?! My husband went and got the menu and it clearly states the cheeseburger comes with carmelized onions. I needed a knife to put mustard on my burger but none of us got any sliverware, napkins or coasters for our beers which were sweaty. After waiting for 10 minutes to get silverware my husband got up and got silverware from the bar. Now my lukewarm burger is cold as well as my fries. We asked for the manager and he did bring us caramelized onions in a to-go cup. Plus we got to-go containers to take our food home and reheat it. My sister and I waited tables when we we were young and had a whole lot more common sense. We did tip Vanessa but not nearly as much as we normally do. TP clearly hires based on looks and not brains. Vanessa is one of the worse waitresses we have experienced in a long time.

The last of the 20th century American businesses. Representing 1990's establishment in the America…read more250 series, Yard House started in California in 1996. I already reviewed my local location in Hanover, MD. Didn't have much to add to Gaithersburg, MD or Springfield, VA location except that I had my 32nd birthday party in Springfield, the first location in the DC area. Prior to moving to the DC area in 2011, I lived in Phoenix. I had been to all 3 Valley locations Glendale (Westgate), Phoenix (Desert Ridge), & Scottsdale (Fashion Square Mall) [Scottsdale one no longer exists]. My 1st visit to a Yard House ever was this Glendale location in 2008. My friend invited me to this location citing their great happy hour. I remember I liked the sliders on the happy hour pricing, which was cheap back then. A wide variety of beer options and huge glasses the length of a half yard. A full yard would be difficult to drink and way too much beer to drink in one sitting; plus the beer would get warm & flat by the time you'd finish a whole yard of beer. Staff was nice at the Glendale location. Now, 18 years later happy hour is still good albeit different and yes more expensive but still good deal relative to normal price.

Not our first time at the Yard House but need to provide my review from today's visit…read more Great music and TVs galore! Soccer time Sierra was our server, she is so kind and professional.

Will definitely be back This place Rocks! Thank you Sierra and Yard House :-)
