Beer, wine, and axe-throwing games with friendly, helpful coaches
"Located just a short walk away from Union Square station on the Green Line, Urban Axes has become a trendy spot for office outings since its opening. Though some may be deterred by the idea of hurling an axe at wooden targets while casually sipping beer (I mean, what could possibly go wrong?), this activity is not as dangerous as it may sound. There are axe-throwing coaches on-site to provide guidance and ensure safety. And the axes are 1.5-pound hatchets." - Valerie Li Stack
"Located at 2 Union Sq. in Union Square, Somerville, this Philadelphia-based chain brought ax-throwing to the immediate Boston area; I noted it was slated for summer 2018 and later reported to open on Dec. 7, though the bar portion was not ready for opening weekend. The venue offers beer and wine (or allows BYOB depending on location), was reported to have a capacity of roughly 80–100 people, and caters to groups and corporate events with reservations, some walk-in hours, onsite coaches to provide instruction, and recreational and competitive leagues." - Eater Staff

"A Philadelphia-based chain, Urban Axes recently expanded to Somerville’s Union Square late last year and is cited as part of the small but growing ax-throwing scene in Massachusetts." - Rachel Leah Blumenthal
"A Somerville axe-throwing bar that offers a competitive, activity-driven night out, exemplifying the region’s appetite for experiential, game-centered nightlife." - Dana Hatic
