Reviews of BATL Axe Throwing (Bowling Alley)

Alex Brandeau

This isn’t just a place to throw axes. This is a place to become family. Everyone is extremely welcoming, friendly, and genuinely gets excited when people do well, even if they're people you're competing against. Get a taste for throwing during an event or walk-ins, and then join a league and meet some of the best people anywhere.

Just battled at Niagara BATL. We had a party of 4 and were paired up with another couple. Our MC for the night was Page and she did a phenomenal job explaining all the details of the Battle. Great time for sure. We will be back.

Marc Sarte

Had a great time here. Loved the ambiance and the atmosphere. Great selection of beers and coolers. Amber was amazing and a great host/server/referee. Would definitely recommend this location if you're in the area, looking to try something new, returning, or looking to have a great time. Keep up the great work!

I was there last night with my work peeps for a team building event and we all had a fantastic time. We ordered food and it was great too! Our coaches - Michael and Megan were awesome...they made the night super fun!! Highly recommend!!

Ben Zavitz

Great staff and a fun time!

Jonathan Basha

Came by for a walk-in with some friends on a Sunday. None of us have ever thrown an axe before, but the staff here were great coaches! We had a blast and were able to get the hang of it. Great selection of drinks too. We'd love to come back with a bigger group.

As the best man in a wedding I had to come up with something for a bachelor party. Started our night here and had a great time. Good staff very friendly. Reasonable prices. I still cant believe they let you drink here! Had a great time and will go back.

Chris Quinn

Been a league member for a couple of years. Great staff and very welcoming. Update: Still great and now offer more drinks and Premier League

Tim Maw

Great place to go. The staff were very friendly and taught us to throw axes in 3 different styles. Its like bowling but with axes. Great place to go with a group of friends. I would highly recommend this place. 2 thumbs up????????

Dan Doctor

Great place for veteran axe throwers and noobs alike. Jeff was great, explained everything and hung with our party the whole time. Lauren the bartender was friendly and fast and the drinks were perfect. We had a blast and it didn't cost an arm and a leg. Which is good with all the axes around. We had a blast and would reccomend to couples, work parties or even first dates (if you can trust each other with axes being thrown beside eachother you're sure to last) While most of our party was noobs we weren't treated any differently than the pros and everyone there was friendly. Free parking on the streets made it more affordable too.

Roy Hwang

Had a great time here on our annual guy's weekend. Lee and Alex were awesome hosts and made the afternoon alot of fun. Would definitely do this again and recommend this to any group

Tiffany Adams

Really fun! You should try it out, they give you pointers if your new and its a fun open atmosphere! Good for couples and groups

Ryan Rushton

Visited for a friend's bachelor party and had a blast. A-A-Ron was a fantastic host/coach/score-keeper. Highly recommend Batl!

Savanna Ward

My group of nine went axe throwing last night, We had Lee showing us the ropes. He was awesome! Hilarious and super helpful. We all had a great time.

Cam Laman

This was an amazing experience. Beer and axes? It's like splitting wood in the forest minus the outdoor feel. But definitely worth the time and recommend for large groups and parties.

Lindsay Gilliss

Great place for a date or do something new! Friendly staff and great choice of drinks. However there is no food or snacks and it can be a little tight if it is a free night.

Steve Enns

Went for a work party. Because of our group size we had 4 lanes. They organized a round robin tournament with “refs” keeping score which is shown live on the tv’s. Really well organized, lots of chances to play. Would recommend!

Ryan Rosenthal

We came here for our buddy's Bachelor party, and Cookie Boy was an awesome trainer and host. He worked so well with out group and kept the atmosphere light and friendly, I would highly recommend any group looking for a fun unique time to come in and give it a shot!

John Tumanguil

Went here for a bachelor party, and it was my first time experiencing axe throwing. Service was impeccable and everyone had a great time. They organized our large group and taught us how to throw. Then they ran an organized tournament within our group. They kept score, which was also displayed on the monitors, like bowling. The whole thing was well organized, staff was friendly and the service was great. They serve alcohol and bar type food here as well, not sure how the food was since we didn't get any. They allowed us to bring in a small try of veggies and dip for us to snack on while we drank and played which was great. I would definitely recommend this place for an event or large group. They took a lot of the work out by running the show for our large group.

Prashanth M K

This was an amazing experience! We were 10 people in total and the hostess (Megan) was jovial, and fun and took part in all our jokes. Definitely recommend for groups, large or small.

Blissfull Essence

I went with my partner last week and we had a great time! It was my first time axe throwing and I’d love to do it again! They also have great employees. I definitely recommend

Melanie Sodka

Lots of fun with proper instructions and very welcoming! Safe and all protocols were followed. Great music too!

Dan Argenta

A unique way to have a great night with a group. If you aren't completely hooked after one visit I'd be surprised. Jeff and Lauren were great! Spencer, make good on your beer promise! Lol.

Victoria R

Im not normally one for activities like this, but this was a blast! You can have a beer and throw axes and compete with your friends the whole time. Would love to come back sometime!

Samuel Noble

It's fun, throw axes and drink beer..

beldmania

Had a great time! A-Aron was an amazing coach for us. Definitely will be back. Lots of laughs for us too.

Chris Patterson

Great place to bring the family for a fun day. They really take time to coach you ...Melissa was great! One cool aspect about axe throwing is that the whole family can participate, but nobody is going to be amazing at it right away. So it's a fair and fun contest for all. They have a couple of craft beers on tap, too. I'll be back for sure.

D Leblanc

Lee our instructor was amazing and has a great personality and it's what made the experience even more fun.Axe throwing was incredible and will be back many more times..

Alessandro Zamai

Great place to meet up for some healthy competition. Prices are reasonable and staff make the entire experience fun and safe!

Roger Lee

Barter was our coach / guide and he showed our party a great time. Had a lot of fun throwing the axes and the mini tournament was awesome!

Daniel “Don Pandon” G Gonzalez

Great place to feel the danger and adrenaline. Great instructors working here to guide you on how to throw axes and give you hints and strategies as the axes fly to the targets. The music is not too loud so it's perfect for ambient and conversation. Next time I'm back I'll definitely go again.

Jared Cinnamon

If you want a unforgettable experience this is the place to go. Great people and great times. I will go to this place over and over and still want to go

Patterson

Fun day, staff was nice. Our coach - Mel - was considerate, personal, and likeable. Would recommend

Meghan Mahoney

First but definitely not our last time going. Lauren, Lee and Alex were all great. They really take the time and helped us learn the right way to throw. Can't wait to go back again.

Kris McCarthy

Had a party of 11. This place is amazing and lots of fun. Jeff and Lauren took care of us and guided us through an elimination tournament. Will definitely be back.Thanks again!!

Collin Marchand

Awesome fun! Came here as part of my bachelor party and we all had an amazing time! I've been shooting bows and guns my whole life and this was way more fun! Definitely will be going back! Update: came back, two years later mind you, and loved it again. won't wait so long for the next time. Lee and Alex were awesome. Helpful and fun and just a good time overall. Definitely recommend.

A Y

I came with a group from work and had so much fun! The instructors were very helpful. I wasn't very good at first but they helped me make adjustments each round and I was able to hit the board effortlessly. Would highly recommend this place for a group of friends or team building activities.

Christiana K

Had an awesome time! Super chill, our instructor David was totally cool and patient with us! Will go again soon :)

David Landry

Aaron and Meg were such incredible hosts. They made our time this afternoon. Such a great venue for our bachelor party needs :)

Juliea M

Booked our session online which was super easy. Was greeted with enthusiasm, sign in was fast and Cookie Boy was an amazing instructor! Will be back again.

Rob T

Started the bachelor party weekend in Niagara will a good ole axe throwing tournament at BATL. Staff were very organized and made it a really fun experience. Unfortunately, I lost in the finals but I got my revenge later that evening. Very cool way for those who didn’t know each other to become friends and engage in some “friendly” competition. We threw a wicked party!

Cleaning Girl (Mandy)

Awesome experience with Lauren! First time ever throwing axes definitely not something as easy as it looks. Thanks for being a great coach. Cheers, Mandy :)

A Talking

Fantastic place to send some time with friends and have fun! Booked a private session the coach was brilliant she explained everything well, super easy to get along with and got the whole group laughing and interacting with each other. Throwing an axe was unlike anything I’ve ever done before and wouldn’t hesitate to do it again!

Don bartley

First timers and we had a blast. Alex was awesome and shared as many pointers as he could. The drinks were never empty!!!

Jennifer Chapman

Had so much fun. Went for a work event and everyone enjoyed it.

Kevin Faherty

Experience was pretty cool. They are good at explanations and offer tips for better success. Everything was great but found it slightly pricey.

Taylor Reinhart

Had a great time! Was there about a month for a bachelor party and just forgot to write a review. Our coach/referee, Colin, was great...definitely would go back again!

Tanya Mccullough

We just had our FIRST experience with axe throwing, and it was one for the books! Lee was our instructor and he was amazing ! Thanks again for making our experience awesome!! We will be back :)

Jenny Steele

Hosted a small company event last Friday night and everyone had a great time. Customer service was great and very quick/easy to get everything set up. Minor problem with the food order was easily resolved. Alex was our instructor/host and did a great job taking drink orders, getting everyone involved and actively throwing. Excellent instruction and tips/feedback for technique too. Everyone had a great time - we’ll likely be back again.

Dino the genetic marvel

This was our first ever attempt at axe throwing. Thanks to the exceptional staff and expertise of Marty as our coach it was a highlight of our weekend away. And on top of everything I got to throw the big axe and landed it for the win. Awesome time!

Kim Smith

Great atmosphere and staff!! Alex ensured we had a fun night!! ???????????????? Our group will be back ????

Shawn Price

Great place to toss a few back and play with axes.

Ross Mein

Great fun. Went for my first time and they were very helpful. $20 for one hour everything included.

Joe Lamothe

Fun evening, but way too expensive for the amount of axe throwing you get to do. It was $46 for two and a half hours, however each person only got to throw for 20 - 25 minutes max. Lots of standing around. Not enough bang for your buck. Probably best to just go for the walkin throwing where the prices are much cheaper

Alex Chan

Came here as a part of my bachelor party with some friends and had a blast! Even though I'm pretty sure I made a fool of myself, Barter was fun and patient, and gave plenty of pointers to help out. Definitely looking forward to come back!

monty PEEL

Awesome place! We had a blast tonight. Lee was super fun and Alex showed us some awesome moves with the big axe. Will definitely come back again for our 3rd time.

Its a me

Very cool. Ever wanted to try it? This is the place. Great atmosphere friendly staff and you get to throw axes !

Kristen Corcoran

Awesome event night! Thank you Brad, Alex and Stephan for organizing, coaching and running a smooth event. Definitely will be back!

J MacD

Cookie Boy is a great host and a good teacher for 1st timers. We joined up on a walk in and were drinking beer and throwing axes quickly. It's a great place for a boys night or a team building event. Do recommend.

Joel St Onge

Had a great time at this location. Our axe coach Dave was very thorough, helpful and enthusiastic. He deserves all the free beers his boss can afford. Will be coming back to BATL for sure.

Giana Warner

So fun! I definitely recommend! Staff was super friendly and helpful. I personally can't wait to go back!

Steve Toderian

our company booked axe throwing as an team building event as part of our yearly safety review. What's wrong with mixing axe throwing booze during a safety conference? But that's were our great coached came in Aaron, Emily and Jackson who were great. we had a great time considering our conference was a safety conference. all but one had great time but he got the 1st loser trophy. nice touch.

Shawn Macdonald

Fun night but if people cancel on you they take no mercy on you and make you pay for all 12 people min. They could have been a lot more understanding. Not even willing to work out a deal it's just cut and dry.

Daniella Jack

The environment and staff were extremely fun and friendly! Can’t wait to book again!

Tara H

We booked a private function for 9 people and I would highly recommend BATL for fun night out. Our host Lauren was awesome! She was fun, attentive and very helpful!

Joe C

Went for a bachelor party and was not dissapointed. After a training session from the knowledgeable instructor we were tossing axes. Super fun and easy to get the hang of it. I cant wait to go back and throw more axes.

Guy Deschamps

Had a great experience with Lauren she was patient and knowledgeable. There was no rush. She was fun to be around. Definitely recommend giving it a try.

Amber Nicole

We took my in laws here for their very first time and they loved it! Axely was our coach and she was awesome!! She coached everyone to make sure we knew what to do and that we were having fun! Highly recommend

Eddie Song

Very fun game to play with the guys, the staff walk you through a tutorial, then your group get into a mini tournament and come up with a winner. Our group had no experience with axe throwing but managed to have a lot of fun.

Michelle Bolus

Had a wicked time. Lauren was our coach and she was amazing!! Made the night a lot of fun.

Lori Faulkner

Excellent place, we had a group of 8 today and had a great time, our instructor was absolutely fantastic

Troy W.

Good times at BATL!! Megan is amazeballz and totally set the right groove to get us going without any worries. She was a great host and also gave us good pointers along the way. Overall it’s a bit pricey for where we’re at, but was an excellent night out with friends! I can easily see this as a solid option for any night out, date night, bachelor or bachelorette party, or team building activity.

Kevin Graves

Not one to write to many reviews but wanted to share my experience with BATL Axe and how fantastic the time spent there was. Megan did a wonderful job working us “newbies” in the proper way to hurl the axes to make them stick, she ran a great tourney for the group and motivated us the whole time. Thank you for a wonderful time, money well spent and the memories will last a lifetime.

Jerry Reid

Great experience, was a fun night out for a corporate event. Megan was super helpful and a great cheerleader as well... I will definitely be back again, with other people

Adam Simpson

This place was super fun and the staff there were able to expertly toe the line between safety and fun. This is a great place to go for events with roughly 20 or less people. Anymore than that and it would get pretty crowded. The bar inside is a nice touch!

Crystal Young

I had made the reservation thinking that it was the competition based one but it was just a 1hr casual. The guys said it was no problem to change it to battle last minute. We had a group of 11 and all had such a great time. Barter (sorry if I spelt his name wrong) was fun, helpful and made the entire experience enjoyable. We will definitely be back to do this again!!

Denny Choe

Great experience! Staff was awesome and Lee was a great coach and Adam had our drinks full all night! Definitely come and check it out.

michelle breckenridge

Big shout out to Lauren and Emily for their awesome job and coaching and helping us all out. They were awesome and I will definitely be back for my next work function :)

Ally Turner

Had a great time! Staff was super friendly, informative, and made sure you had a fun experience!

nathen Rozon

The customer service here is A+. I took my girlfriend here are both new to the axe throwing game and our coach took the time to personally teach us both. They also have a great selection of drinks available and you can have a very good time here. We did the walk on but It was relativly calm atmosphere. I would recommend booking in advance with a party but overall, 10/10
