Liftoff Bat & Ride

Liftoff Bat & Ride is one of those Vegas spots that makes you do a double-take. It's part sports bar, part axe-throwing venue, part batting cage—basically someone said "what if we combined everything dudes like doing when they're drinking?" and then actually built it. Located off-Strip, this is where you go when sitting at a regular bar sounds boring as hell and you want to do something with your hands besides holding a phone.

The Weekend Happy Hour

Friday and Saturday, 25% off drinks might not sound like the craziest deal in town, but when you factor in that you're also getting access to batting cages and potentially axe-throwing (check if it's included or separate), it starts looking better. A quarter off your beers while you're smashing baseballs or hurling axes? That's a solid Saturday afternoon right there. The drink selection covers the usual suspects—domestic and craft beers, well drinks, some cocktails—nothing fancy, all effective.

What Makes It Different

Here's the thing: most happy hours are about sitting. This one's about doing shit. You can reserve a batting cage, test your swing against different pitch speeds, and feel like you're back in Little League except now you can drink. The axe-throwing setup lets you channel your inner lumberjack, and yeah, it's exactly as satisfying as it sounds when you stick the landing. Multiple big screens mean whatever game you care about is probably playing, and the whole vibe is high-energy without being obnoxious.

The Crowd

Expect groups of guys, bachelorette parties looking for something different, and locals who are bored of traditional bars. It gets loud, it gets competitive, and everyone's having a better time than they would sitting on barstools staring at their phones. The staff keeps things moving and safe—you're not going to hurt yourself or others unless you're really trying.

When to Go

This is your move when regular happy hour sounds lame. Bachelor parties, group outings, first dates where you actually want to do something memorable—Liftoff works for all of it. The 25% off drinks on weekends sweetens the deal without being the main attraction. You're here for the experience; the happy hour pricing just makes it easier to justify staying longer and ordering another round while you perfect your swing.
