It was a short visit, but Axle's Garage Tap was a highlight. We were in town staying at Bottleworks. We walked by once or twice in the evening and the entire place was hopping! I imagine this place does an amazing business. We went during the day and it was pretty subdued. If you happen to be staying at Bottleworks and are in the mood for a brew, walk across the way, order a brew and chill. It's a nice way to pass some time.

EDIT: The organization I deceptively mentioned at the beginning of my review has rightfully asked…read moreme to clarify that I am not a member, voting or otherwise, past or present, of CCL, nor have I pursued membership or been interested in doing so. I've helped a little bit with a few of their events, but I'm just some concerned queer who got livid when he heard about this, and I thought that implying I'm with a group would make my words carry more weight. Stupid, and I make exactly one apology: for lying about my affiliation, I'm sorry. The organization has also asked me not to abut Shelby Street Tavern's reply to my review on Google, and I have grudgingly agreed. However, the post stays. I will notate my deception, and will also remove the needlessly rude section at the end, but the rest stands. ORIGINAL POST, EDITED AS EXPLAINED ABOVE: This is honestly a great bar, mostly, hence the 5-stars for Food, Service, and Atmosphere. I was initially glad my organization [NOTE: THIS IS A LIE, SEE ABOVE] chose to patronize this place. But that appreciation ended last night when bar management decided that keeping things quiet was more important than dealing with an assault and battery that happened at the bar. If the genders and races in the situation had been reversed, my friend would still be in jail right now, while the harasser in this situation got to finish out their night feeling good about getting away with what they've done. Someone reserving your bar for an event does not magically get the right to assault and batter someone. Never mind that the person doing the A&B has a history of harassing the person they chased out of the bar... [NOTE: FINAL PARAGRAPH REMOVED FOR BEING UNNECESSARILY RUDE]

Fowling (noun) fowl-ing: The hunting or trapping of wildfowl…read more Google "fowling definition" and this is what you'll find. Google simply "fowling" and you learn about this odd sport where you combine football and bowling. Just now. Right NOW as I'm writing this, the word fowling finally made (sort of) sense. Football + bowling = fowling. Now I'm even pronouncing the word different with a long "o" sound versus the "ou" diphthong. I had to Google that, too, but once I saw diphthong, I knew it was going in my review. You're welcome for the 5th grade grammar lesson. Please redeem your Pizza Hut personal pan pizza for your hard work. Ok, fowling. It has nothing to do with trapping birds or teaching birds of prey to land on your arm (that's falconry). Nope, it's a game you play with friends and beer. The setup is more like cornhole, but you use bowling pins and throw, that's right, a football. Someone was clearly drunk when this game was invented. But what a great way to bring a group of people together! The Fowling Warehouse specializes in the game of fowling, but has several other activities to enjoy as a group: pool, darts, a few arcade games and a golf simulator. I may go back just for the golf simulator. This is the real deal, a full Trackman set up. It was pretty sweet. Those simulators can be a little intimidating at the PGA Superstore, but it's tucked away in the corner at the Fowling Warehouse where you can shank balls and not feel like a fool. Mostly. There are also two bars and you can order pizza and boneless wings. The bar has a nice selection of beers on tap. They use the magnet cup system where the cup fills from the bottom. My favorite thing was seeing multiple signs on the bar that warn you that if you push the bottom of the cup, you will get wet! And I smiled devilishly thinking about curious people testing their luck with the cups and losing every time. For me, I enjoyed a couple glasses of this blood orange IPA. Delicious and refreshing. The Fowling Warehouse isn't exactly my jam, but I think it's the kind of place that is perfect for a certain crowd who enjoys games and likes a new challenge. And they can handle a large party! If you are looking to try a new sport that feels like it was invented by someone who lost a bet, this place is for you! I kid, but the Warehouse is nice and clean and large! The service was good and everyone seemed to have a great time. Seems like a pretty good spot for your next party if games are your thing! Please note: No birds were injured during the writing of this review.

Recently visited Fowling Warehouse for a work team building event. I had no idea what to expect…read more Parking was a bit of a mystery. There was a sign in front of the business pointing you to turn down a steer for parking; next block there is a huge parking lot but no signs saying you can park there for fowling, BUT, it was abundantly marked that cars will be towed. Since there was nothing else around, I assumed it was the right place and parked. Of course I briskly walked to fowling to inquire if I was in the correct space. I was, whew. Those towers can really work fast. Fowling is in a warehouse with other businesses, hence the name. It is huge. We were on lane 32, I believe so there's at least 32 lanes. There is also a corn hole area. There is a bar where they have a decent variety of adult beverages. I went with 3 Floyd's warpig, a hazy ipa. It was really good. The important aspect of fowling is not eating or drinking there, but to interact with the people your with. Sure you can win a game, but the fun is the game itself and the camaraderie with a drink. Our leader looked up the rules prior and explained them. You take turns throwing a football at bowling pins, one set of pins on each end of the lane. There are two lines to throw from, our group guys threw from back and women from front. I watched a group next to us, both men and women threw from front line, it didn't appear to give anyone an advantage. I don't know if the pizza place is part of fowling or a separate business, but we got pizza from Bonk Pizza. It was ok, it was enough to say we were fed. I'm glad I did this and would go again.

Found this little hangout spot in the heart of Fountain Square…read more Retro pinball machines fill both rooms as well as live music 4 nights a week. Big selection of food and drinks. I go for the margarita each time. They have really good food at a decent price plenty of options even for vegetarian and vegan. I had the hummus plate the first time and the Chicago dog and tots when I came back. This is not your regular bar food. Everything is good quality and tastes good. Loved my Chicago dog. There is construction going on in the front. You can park on the street but there is also sufficient parking in the back. The owner Scott makes everyone feel welcome and there is a diverse clientele.

My husband had raved about this place for a while, so I was excited to finally check it out, but…read moreunfortunately my experience was a little disappointing. We came on a Friday night after a concert looking for good food and drinks. My husband had been here before and really enjoyed the Thai chicken salad wontons, so he wanted me to try it. It looked appealing, but after the first bite I was highly disappointed. The flavor of the chicken salad tasted off, almost like it had been sitting out too long. I usually enjoy Thai-inspired flavors, but this just didn't taste fresh to me at all. The wonton cracker itself was good. The fries were good, and I tried a bite of the mushroom burger my husband ordered. Surprisingly, I actually liked it even though I'm usually not a mushroom person. They didn't have the beer my husband likes on tap, so he ordered an Old Fashioned instead and said it was decent. I tried one of their WildFyre lemonades (the strawberry lemonade) and it was pretty good as well. At $14, the pricing felt fair for the size and atmosphere. On Friday nights they have a live DJ, which gave the place a fun, upbeat vibe without being too overwhelming. We were still able to relax and hold a conversation. Another cool feature is the indoor game area with pinball machines and more, which adds to the overall hangout atmosphere and makes it appealing for different crowds. It also wasn't overly busy when we visited, so service was decent. Even though the food I tried missed the mark for me, I wouldn't completely rule this place out. It still seems like a solid spot to hang out, grab drinks, and I'd be open to trying different menu items next time.
