This indoor axe throwing facility is conveniently located just seconds away from Kingsway Mall (maybe you can convince him to stop by after, while he’s in a good mood!) and even offers private classes.

Denizen Hall

10266 103 St NW, Edmonton AB T5J 0Y8

If your other half has more video games than he does pairs of socks, why not encourage him to enjoy some gaming outside of the house, retro-style? Denizen Hall is a great local hub that offers yummy eats, refreshing drinks and, most importantly, a full-sized old school arcade with pinball and a whole range of other stand up games! You can challenge your guy to a high score battle, or simply cheer him on from the side lines while you enjoy a delicious cocktail. Either way, everyone is a winner!

Craft Beermarket

10013 101A Ave NW, Edmonton AB T5J 0C3

If there is one thing that is commonly enjoyed by all men, it’s beer. Tell your guy you want to take him to cask night at Craft Beer Market and we’re almost certain he’ll be racing you to the car. During cask night (every Tuesday!) a new cask that has been brewed especially for Craft is tapped at 4 p.m. Your guy will be beaming with excitement as he savours a crisp, local ale (or lager, or stout …) and, as he looks across the table at you, of course!
