What Guests Say

"
Brought my brother's bachelor party here and it was a huge hit. Way more fun than the usual bar crawl. Everyone was talking about it for weeks.
— James K. (Bachelor Party)
"
The stress relief is REAL. There's something incredibly satisfying about slicing clean through a target with a real sword. My whole group was buzzing with adrenaline afterward. Absolutely worth it.
— Jason M. (Stress Relief Session)
"
This was incredible! Getting to wear actual plate armour and learn real sword fighting techniques was a dream come true. The instructor was knowledgeable and made it so much fun.
— Marcus T. (Birthday Experience)
"
I've done escape rooms, axe throwing bars, all of it—this was genuinely unique. The facility is amazing and you can tell the instructors really know their stuff.
— Michael R. (Group Outing)
"
My boyfriend and I came for a date night and had the best time! The instructor was patient and made it fun even though we'd never shot a bow before. We're already planning to come back.
— Michelle T. (Date Night)
"
This was the most fun I've had in years! The training was thorough enough that we felt confident competing, and the tournament itself was absolutely thrilling. My friends and I still talk about our matches.
— Ryan M. (Bachelor Party)
"
Way better than the axe throwing bars! The instructors actually taught us proper technique and by the end we were all hitting bullseyes. Plus no drunk people in the lane next to you.
— Ryan P. (Bachelor Party)
