Place has limited parking, but it has it. Instructors were awesome, very nice, patient, and they know their stuff. Each instructor helped each student individually get better in the hour. I definitely would like to go back.

First time a few days ago. Was a really.enjoyable hour, it a few pro tips. They have both compound and recurve bows. The short range shooting lanes accommodate up to 6 people at a time. We did a walk in hour for 20 dollars everything included, and got plenty of shooting in. Theres also a longer range for more experienced archers. When we were there there were a few professionals shooting who (I believe) trained at this range. Very knowledgeable and friendly staff. Will certainly be returning.

Super fun and awesome! (Maybe a bit biased since I always wanted to do archery! ;) ) The instructor for first-time orientation was very patient and really knew what he was doing! An hour is too little! We will definitely come back soon and spend more time!

I actually really enjoyed my first experience at Archery Bow Range Chicago. When my sisters boyfriend told me he was looking for a fun venue to host an event to promote awareness for MS, this establishment was one of the first places that came to mind. They (my sister, her bf, and another friend) decided to go to ensure it would be suitable for the event and I assumed that they would have a fun time.When they got back they all seemed pretty agitated. Archery Bow Range Chicago offers different price points depending on customers experience. My sister, who has experience shooting arrows, opted for the cheaper option that doesnt include lessons and my friend followed suit assuming he would catch on easily.The man who was instructing their session realized my friend was inexperienced and accused them of cheating the system and demanded that they pay the full price before storming off in anger.Another instructor took over and and she was much less rude. Until she said Just so you guys know, (Male Employees Name) is really pissed with you. How she thought that was an appropriate thing to say to paying customers? Ill never know. Maybe the other instructors at this establishment are more keen on how people should be treated, but that hardly matters. If you value how you and your loved ones are treated, I suggest you go somewhere else. Recommending this establishment was a mistake I have no intention of making again.

Took the intro class today. The price is very reasonable and the experience was awesome. Being a first time shooter, it was a little weird at first getting the form right. However, the instructors, especially the woman instructor who had a sense of humor, made it easier. They know what theyre talking about. It was very fun. Highly recommend.

OMG!!! Took my mom here last Saturday for her birthday. We did the intro class and in less than 15 minutes we were shooting bullseyes! The staff is so knowledgeable and friendly that its almost impossible not to have fun. The entrance can be confusing, just go into the door inside the parking lot ththeththen follow the signs. We had so much fun that were going back this Thursday. This place is a hidden gem!

This was a great experience! The instructor was friendly and helpful without being overbearing or forgetting we were there for fun. Eight of us were in for a bachelor party, and they ran through some basic training, then set us free with occasional guidance.Theres a good team there, and it its a welcoming environment for all skill levels.

Ive been wanting to learn archery for a long time and am I certainly glad I ended up at this joint. Hands down best indoor range in the Chicagoland area. Staff is very knowledgeable, friendly, and willing to help novices and advanced archers alike. Very wide variety of classes and competitions to fit any skill or age class. Couldnt recommend it higher due to the 5 star limit :(. You guys rock!

Great little place to learn how to shoot or spend some time shooting targets.The training area is about 20 feet to a target and the other range is about 70 feet.They have bathrooms and the entrance is through the parking lot on Kimball.

Great group activity! My buddies and I went here to start off a bachelor party (while we were still able to shoot arrows safely) and we had a blast.The instructor patiently showed us how to shoot safely and well, gave us all some time get acclimated to our bows, and then ran a nice 30 min competition with teams. It was awesome fun and, for the price, a great deal. (an hour and a half ran us $35/person). Ive seen Groupons for this place too, so you might be able to score a better deal.

Great little place, run by knowledgable and friendly staff. The only reason it didnt get 5 stars from me is because having no phone and credit card acceptance makes it mildly inconvenient for me to plan my visit. Pay close attention to their online schedule and plan your visit accordingly. I would definitely go back again. Great job guys!

The website clearly states that they dont have a phone because theyre helping archers, but they respond quickly to emails and have the schedule available online. The staff is helpful and friendly as are the other patrons

Great place for beginning or more advanced archers. Relaxed atmosphere and helpful people. One of the very few options for indoor archery within the city.

Nice archery range. Definitely on the small side but a nice place to go during the winter months to practice.

Today is my birthday and I got a brand new bow. That I love to shoot! I am here currently, there is no phone to call. I ranged every button so just get buzzed in the building. When I finally got in the actual place the doors where locked. Building looks a lil sketchy, not a lot of light nor customer service. So Im leaving. Overall TERRIBLE experience.

Great place to learn some archery. The instructors are super nice, and once youve taken a couple classes you can come in for range time to practice.

Most of the trainers there were very nice, understanding & professional. But one trainer, with the very dark hair, was very rude, abrasive & insensitive.

Their website posts no phone number. So I drove half an hour here and could not use their facility because there was a class followed by a private event. Apparently I could have figured this out if I went to their poorly advertised calendar. I will not be going back here.
