Chatham Axes

Located at 215 Lorax Lane in the heart of Pittsboro, North Carolina, Chatham Axes is the region’s premier axe‑throwing bar, blending adrenaline‑pumping sport with a relaxed bar atmosphere. Visitors step onto outdoor lanes that stay open rain or shine, guided by seasoned coaches who teach grip, stance and release in just minutes. Sessions run from 1‑hour slots at $20 per person on weekdays to 2‑hour extended lanes for $27, while weekends cost $27 for an hour and $33 for two hours, making it ideal for first‑timers, celebrations or competitive leagues. The venue partners with The Plant and nearby eateries such as Kingston 99 Kitchen, Contento Mexican, Brixx Café, Little Havana Café, Koshu Sake Bar and Fair Game Beverage Co., so guests can enjoy craft beers, meads, coffee and specialty bites without leaving the premises—outside food and drink are prohibited inside the lanes. Large groups of ten or more receive a dedicated two‑hour block with multiple lanes for $25 per person, and the mobile throwing unit brings caged lanes, targets and a coach to private events, weddings or corporate team‑building sessions for $550‑$750. Open Wednesday through Friday 2 pm‑8 pm, Saturday 12 pm‑10 pm and Sunday 12 pm‑6 pm, the bar also hosts Thursday pint nights featuring free bmc brewing pints for patrons 21+. Safety is paramount: closed‑toe shoes, a coach on every lane, and a digital liability waiver ensure a secure experience. Whether you’re a local looking for a weekend thrill or a tourist seeking a uniquely Southern pastime, Chatham Axes delivers memorable fun, friendly staff and a vibrant community vibe.
