Blade & TIMBERRR!
Calling all lumber jack + jill wannabes!
TODAY, Blade & Timber is opening a new location, right in the bullseye (get it?) of Kansas City! We had the opportunity to check out this space, located in the Power & Light district, try our hand at axe throwing, and taste their newly offered food menu! Every detail was thought out so perfectly and the space is truly remarkable!
Unlike their other locations in the metro, this one is unique in the fact that it offers 11 throwing lanes, a dining area, and a bar! Not to mention added entertainment including a photo-booth and dart throwing areas. Among the space, guests can enjoy a bite to eat before, during, or after their round of axe throwing. The menu, though small, offers big flavors between their handful of dishes!
Axe-throwing works up quite an appetite and so we were glad to be able to order while we played! We chose the chicken + waffles, Steak Fites, and both the regular and sweet potatoes seasoned french fries! The flavors were phenomenal and we could not stop obsessing over how good the waffles were. We concluded that it tasted similar to a hawaiian roll of sorts. Additionally, guests can enjoy a drink from the beer/wine list offered!
During your game (is that what it is even called?) each lane is assigned a coach. They walk you through the safety spiel, give you some throwing points, and teach you fun tricks! Let’s just say that axe throwing is definitely not my forte; however, I still had an insane amount of fun! We learned the basic overhead throw, an underhand throw, as well as a double axe throw! Who knew? It is also a sneaky way to get a workout in because my ab muscles are feeling it today. We can’t wait to go back and introduce all our friends and family to this strange form of entertainment!
After all was said and done we celebrated all our bullseyes with a delicious dessert waffle! It is baked with sugar pearls, and offered with a blueberry and honey mallow dipping sauce. YUM! I can’t think of a sweeter way to end a night of throwing axes!
