Amazing date night or group activity!! Hannah is a lovely instructor and kept good conversation, while not overcrowding us. I recommend for anyone in the area wanting a fun outing.
Emily was super nice and fun. Had a great time splattering paint. Planning to return to smash stuff!
I've gone to a few different Axe throwing places in Utah county and this is my favorite. They have an ?armory? with throwing stars and cards which is fun. The games also make it more interactive and better for people that may not aim super well. RJ helped us out and she was helpful with technique tips and very professional with safety rules. I would recommend this for dates, family activities, work activities, etc. so fun!
Axe throwing was fun. They have a lot of options for games both single and group. Paint room was awesome. Fun to make a mess. Hannah was great at explaining things and was willing to make calls on our games to break ties.
I brought my son and his friends here over Christmas break to throw axes. They had so much fun! Hannah did a great job clearly explaining everything to them and helping them when they were struggling to throw the knives. The boys loved changing out the targets and also playing games against eachother. We didn't try anything else out besides throwing axes, Chinese stars, knives etc but the other activities they offer sound fun also. Thanks Hannah! We'll be back!
My husband and I had the best time throwing axes and smashing bottles. John was great help when it came to fixing our form while axe throwing. He was also so kind and threw in an extra box of bottles for us to throw in the smash room. We had a wonderful experience. No bad things to say! Thanks John!
We did the axe throwing and paint splatter. We had a blast! Hannah helped us, and she was fun and helpful. Definitely recommend! Especially for dates or groups.
Girls night was so fun here! I loved the many options for throwing as well as games and Hannah was incredible all around. I will definitely be coming again.
So SO fun!!! This place was absolutely amazing!!!! We came with my husband for a late, short date night after a rough day and I came out of this place feeling so happy. They had different games that you can play and different tools to throw, my favorite was the throwing star. Emily was so awesome and so helpful and kind. I'm excited to try the smash room next time and come for another date night.
Had a great time with the gals. I think we wore more paint then the canvas. Would totally do it again
Oh my goodness was this place fun! The games keep things so interesting & so fun! Great place for a date night! Hannah was so so helpful & great to work with!
So fun!!! Had the best time with my co- workers throwing axes and ninja stars, love it, thank you to our Dr for taking us on a field trip! Lol and, Hannah was the best host!!
Hannah made the experience so much fun. She was extremely helpful and kind. Even teaching my friend how to do the axe throwing properly. 10/10 love the service she provided!
Such a fun family night at Axe N Smash... Good way to let go of work frustration of the wk lol. They also have a paint splat room so much fun getting messy. They have rain gear and shoe covers so you don't get your clothes and shoes messy. Sabrina was great help with teaching how to throw. Such a bubbly personality. A MUST GO!!!
Hannah was the BEST worker I have ever had at any rage room or axe throwing! Hannah made sure we had everything we needed and had a great conversation with us and I really enjoyed the energy they brought!! Genuinely made this experience the best it could?ve possibly been!!! My group LOVED HANNAH!!
We had an awesome time, Hannah was a great host! Lots of fun games and throwing options
My son and his friends had a great time in the paint room. 100% suggest booking here. Excellent customer service and so much fun!
We went to Axe N Smash for the first time over spring break. We did the smash room and had a great time and were able to take out some frustration! I was so impressed with Hannah. She was kind and explained all the safety measures and rules. She took time to talk with us and took pictures of our family. We will definitely go back and try the axe throwing as well!
Great service, great music choice, and Hannah was very friendly and supportive in mentoring and tutoring us. The bowling one was my favorite. Also, free water is never a bad thing. Would definitely come back for more.
Hannah was amazing! Fun time, fun games, it's nice that this is more than just traditional axe throwing.
Absolutely loved our experience here!!! Best axe throwing in northern Utah! Loved all the different game options on the tablet! Plus the coaching we got from Sabrina was spot on, she had some great tips and really caught the small differences we needed! We also did the paint splatter room and it was so fun! Creativity and messy is just what we needed!
We had so much fun at Axe N Smash! My kids loved all the different things you can throw (ninja stars, knives, playing cards, etc.). There was also a great selection of targets, pictures, and games to choose from. Hannah was so helpful in teaching us how to throw well and was so good with the kids. Great family activity. Definitely recommend!
Wife and I wanted to try axe throwing for a date night and got excited about this place as they also offered a splatter painting room too. Hannah made the experience so much better as she was super friendly and offered us great advice that made the experience so much better. The axe throwing offered a variety of games and we are excited to hang the paintings we made throwing paint around!
I went here with my friends for my birthday and Hannah was absolutely amazing and super friendly. She was also very knowledgeable and willing to coach us when we had questions. We had a blast and will definitely be coming back
We absolutely LOVED Hannah. They were so sweet to our group and made us feel so taken care of. We need more Hannah?s in the world!!
The Ash N Smash experience in Layton is so cathartic and cheaper than therapy! Today, Hannah helped me with the bottle smash option, and she provided me with a permanent marker so I could write messages on each bottle. She also asked what music I needed to smash to, which made the experience perfect for what I needed. Hannah was delightful and helpful, and the facility is fun and such a great idea for a date night, a girls? night out, and even some solo therapy time! 10/10 recommend!
We did the smash room. It's worth it. We had a great time absolutely demolishing buckets of junk. The beer bottles popping when you smack them with the crow bar is especially satisfying. They even have a phone holder so you can record yourself. I recommend taking a swing at it ??
This place was awesome. My husband surprised me with a date night doing glow paint and axe throwing. This is a great time. John was awesome and gives great tips on how to improve your form while throwing.
We had a great time. The service was very personal. Loved the painting room and the smash room. They even have pictures of celebrities you can throw your glass at! Highly recommend it for stress relief!
Axe N Smash is the best place EVER for axe throwing! Hannah was very helpful with training and safety. The whole family, including my young kids can do it, thanks to adding ninja stars and throwing cards, and all the projector games. Had a blast with the blow paint room, my younger kids and teenagers had a blast! For me, the knives were the most challenging and fun!
We had a great time here for my birthday! I love the games you can play as target practice with the projections. Hannah was so friendly and helpful!
So much fun! Went with Mom, sisters, nieces and sister-in-laws! Had a blast! Hannah was the best!
This was SO MUCH FUN! Great way to get out our aggression! RJ was super helpful and helped us have a great time. Thanks a ton.
I've been axe throwing a bunch... This was a whole new experience and by far the best! Hannah was super awesome and is now apparently my son's favorite person. Absolutely paint, absolutely rage, absolutely axe it's absolutely worth it! We'll be back soon!
So fun! My fiancee and I had so much fun! Salty his highest score was 48... But you know... RJ was so sweet! And taught me how to throw as this was my first visit! See you again soon!
Very fun! Emily was a warm, friendly host. Great way to relieve stress after a long day. Highly recommend.
Had so much fun in the paint room and axe throwing!! Such a blast. Matt was so helpful and we had such a great experience!
Hannah was AMAZING!!!! Cannot express how incredible they are. Hire more Hannah?s in the world! Always seeking to give people the BEST service, above and beyond!
We came in the other night and Hannah was there and she was just delightful! Great customer service and very helpful.
Hanna did amazing job explaining the fundamentals of ax throwing and coaching along the way. Definitely will return because my son had a blast as well!
Enemies beware! It turns out I'm a fantastic axe thrower, so as long as you stay still and keep 15 feet away from me, your @ss is mine! Also, Hannah deserves a raise.
Super fun. Had a great time. We will definitely be back to try the smash room and throw more axes.
Had an awesome time here! Hannah did an awesome time showing us through the ropes and getting us started with axe throwing.
We did the paint splatter room and it is excellent! 45 minutes of a good time as a date or group activity ??
We came for my son's 11th bday & 3 of his friends. They did axe throwing & bottle breaking and they had a blast! 10/10 recommend. Sabrina was awesome and patient and made it fun.
Awesome. Creative. Super Fun. Great night without the kiddos, but want to come back with them :) Emily was an amazing host!
We love Hannah!! She makes Axe throwing so much more fun. She is knowledgeable, friendly, and willing to help anyone who needs or asks for it. Axe throwing has become a new favorite activity for our family. We will keep coming back.
Axe N Smash is a great place for axe throwing and have integrated games that people can play into their axe throwing experience which makes it a lot more entertaining than other axe throwing places I've been to. In addition, they have a smash room if you're in the mood for wanting to break stuff. The final room they have is a splatter paint room. We did the splatter paint room and for 20 minutes let out our inner Jackson Pollock as we splattered paint using brushes, hands, paint bottles, etc. onto a canvas.
Hannah was great! She made our experience so fun!
My friend and I came and did the ax throwing and the paint splattering! Both were so fun! Hannah was an awesome axe throwing coach, and Sabrina was fantastic with helping us with our messy paint splatter!
Very fun place, I tried throwing a bunch of different things, including Axes, Knives, Ninja Stars, as well as metal playing cards (those are really fun). Hannah was great, she was able to show me around, and show me how to throw each item. She also recommended a couple game modes to try (the battleship one is pretty fun) They also have a glass throwing room, though I haven't tried that (yet!)
We loved having Sabrina coach us. I couldn't hit anything but she helped make it happen. One of my friends got multiple bullseyes. Worth going. 100% recommend
Total fun! Very humbling experience think I could throw axes ?? they had some issues with the internet messing up the games but we were still have fun throwing axes. John was awesome in there! Y'all missing out not coming here.
We went for a 30th birthday party & Hannah was very sweet, made axe puns and helped make it a great night! New experience we haven't had before- The targets were projections on the screens with a variety of games to choose from.
Great facility! Hannah was super friendly and helpful. Great music playing too!
So much fun!! We can't wait to come back and do the paint room. Then the axe throwing again! Price is great, Emily was an amazing host!
This is the BEST place to throw axes! Multiple weapons to choose from, digital targets for more games, need I say more?! Date night, girls night, team building, such a fun activity! Sabrina was really helpful and cheered us on!
The experience was great, had an amazing time Hanna was super nice and made the experience very enjoyable, had a great time with my friends.
Super fun date night! Hannah was amazing and made the experience even more fun!
Hannah was awesome! Great teacher, encouraging, and fun! Great girls night!!
Had a fabulous time with our host Sabrina! This was such a fun experience. We will definitely be back to paint and smash things!
This place has Wonderful staff. Sebrenia (not sure if i spelt it right) was amazing. The axe throwing is fun. It's hard for the first 20-ish minutes if your new but it's easy to gut the hang of. The game modes are fun. But in summary this place is amazing.
Hannah is the bees knees. She helped set us up, gave us 5 star service! Tutorial work, laughed with us. It was a super fun and I'll come back again if Hannah is here!
Hannah Davis did a fantastic job with coaching us on how to use the ax throwing, bottle smashing and the paint room!!
Hannah made our time at Axe n Smash easy and fun. She got us set up quickly to paint. My grandson loved it. She helped us feel confident about trying out the axe throwing and took great care to make sure we were safe. We had a blast! Thanks Hannah for making our experience memorable!
Had a great time with our whole family at Axe N Smash! Our kids are 7 years old to 16. Emily was very helpful in teaching the kids how to throw!
Great experience! They also help provide coaching for first time axe throwers . Highly recommend.
This was my favorite of the axe throwing places I have been to. They had an arsenal of different weapons to throw. Felt super badass. Hannah was a great coach. Super friendly.
The best experience! We have done tons of axe throwing before and this was by far my favorite place. The games you can play are a game changer! And the variety of throwing stars/axes makes it way fun. And the smash room and paint room are the best way to end the night! Hannah made our anniversary night the best night! Thank you for the great experience!
Longest someone trusted me with an axe ?? so much fun!!!
Sabrina was fabulous! She is very knowledgeable about all the things to throw and how to help if it doesn't stick. Highly recommend coming to have some fun and/or smash things. They have a paint room too! Lots of fun things to do. I'm definitely coming back
Was there today. The lady there was super nice. I don't remember her name but she was super helpful and engaged. I highly recommend. I think her name was Sabrina but don't quote me on that.
Hannah was very helpful explaining the how to on axe throwing. The environment was clean and the ninja star is so much fun to throw
This place is SO MUCH FUN! Hanna made sure we had an awesome experience and helped give us pointers! Playing tic tac toe and bowling was the best! It was honestly hard not to stay longer! The place is very clean and has a modern, comfortable feel! Definitely go here! I was blown out of the water by what an incredible experience it was!
We had a great time Hannah was super kind and helpful.
Hannah was amazing! Had so much fun.
Emily was great and helped our group learn to throw!
So much fun! There are so many game options to try out. John and Amondo were super helpful teaching technique and good form in order to better our game. Loved for a date night! Will be coming back soon!
We came to this location for a work function. It was a lot of fun. We were able to rent it for a team builder for the office. It was great time!! There was a few people that have never played before and Hannah took the time to show each player the correct technique. Highly recommend coming here for a team builder.
Awesome place! Only my second time throwing axes ever & it was a blast! The interactive targets are awesome! They bring a whole new dynamic to the activity! Hannah was awesome! Already planning our next trip back.
Place was a lot of fun. John was a great host and very educational!
Absolutely love this place! Hannah was so sweet and comical! She made our night so much better!
Hannah was amazing and offered us a wonderful experience! What a wonderful birthday!
Soooooo fun!! Throwing card definitely the most fun. Hannah was the best! Would 100% recommend.
We had so much fun in the smash room! It was an easy process, super fun experience, and we would highly recommend. Hannah was very kind and helpful. We felt well informed and had a great experience with her!
This place is amazing and Hannah was so much fun! Such a great environment and a TON of fun for a great price! We did the axe throwing and paint room and will definitely be coming back! Thanks Axe N Smash team! We had a perfect date night!
This place is awesome. It's axe throwing with a twist!! Many games to choose from. Clean, friendly staff, close to good food!
Hannah was awesome! She showed us everything and let us use every available material! Way fun date night for me and my husband:) we'll definitely come back!
It’s a mix of nostalgia and high-energy fun! Many arcades blend retro classics like Pac-Man and pinball with modern VR games, racing simulators, and rhythm challenges — often with music, lights, and a social vibe.
Both can be great! Solo visits let you focus on your favorite games, while going with friends adds competition, teamwork, and laughs. Many people plan arcade meetups as a casual hangout or even date spot.
Usually just yourself and a way to pay (some arcades still use coins, others use cards or apps). If you're competitive, bring your A-game. If you're social, bring friends or meet new ones over multiplayer games.
Weekdays or early afternoons are usually less crowded — perfect for focused play. Evenings and weekends bring the buzz, especially at barcades or venues with DJs, tournaments, or themed nights.
Absolutely! Arcades attract a mix of casual players and serious gamers. Whether you're jumping into a four-player co-op or chatting between rounds, it's a fun, low-pressure way to connect over shared interests.
Not at all. While many arcades are family-friendly, there are also adult-oriented ones with full bars, 18+ nights, or vintage nostalgia themes. Arcades today cater to everyone — from first-timers to lifelong gamers.
Yes! Many arcades host regular competitions, retro nights, cosplay parties, and more. Whether you're into high scores or just want to watch and vibe, events add an extra layer to the experience.
No worries — arcades are about having fun, not being perfect. Try a variety of games, ask others for tips, and remember: the vibe is more “let’s play” than “let’s win.”
