New Yorkers looking for an edgy twist to a traditional night out may not have to trek far, as Riverdale Village welcomes Stumpy's Hatchet House, an axe-throwing joint that promises to deliver both thrill and skill. Since its grand opening in January, Stumpy's has been nailing the competition, offering a range of packages that cater to everyone from the curious novice to the experienced lumberjack-in-training. Not just a destination for those looking to hurl hatchets, but the establishment also boasts a smorgasbord of distractions including games, grub, and a digital pit.
Owner Abbi Habben's vision for a unique gathering hub seems to be striking the right chord with locals. "The reception of Stumpy's Hatchet House so far has been great," said Habben in a video released by CTN. The experience isn't strictly about throwing axes; celebrations are in full swing at Stumpy's with party packages that are quickly becoming the talk of the town. There's something inherently appealing about the sound of metal meeting wood, a good brew in hand, surrounded by friends, and maybe a little friendly competition to top off an evening.
According to a Coon Rapids municipal announcement, this axe-throwing haven is more than a place to blow off steam. It's a freshly minted community staple that brings a rather unconventional sport to the center stage of local entertainment. Stumpy's doesn't only offer fun and games, but it rounds out the experience with on-site food and drinks, ensuring that its patrons stay fueled and refreshed as they take part in the ancient art of axe hurling.
The enterprise, located a stone's throw from the heart of the city, is making a mark separate from the run-of-the-mill cinema or bowling alley. With its doors open, Stumpy's Hatchet House invites all those willing to step out of their comfort zone and into a world lined with wooden targets and opportunity for an adrenaline-inducing pastime. For those into trying something out of the ordinary or simply looking to cut loose, Habben and her team have set up a spot that's just the right kind of different.
