With a dedicated staff ensuring a memorable experience, enjoy not only the immersive golfing but also a diverse menu featuring cracker-thin, crispy gluten-free flatbread pizzas. Sip on the summer-perfect Birdie Lemonade, a tequila-infused delight with a crisp tartness. The Tee Box goes beyond golf, offering a playful twist with a basket of donut holes, brunch options, and plans for a Bloody Mary bar.
 

For a different kind of thrill, visit Axe & Ale, a women-owned venue that combines axe throwing with a fully stocked bar. Enjoy snacks like Cashmere Popcorn and Stumpy's Extreme Peanut Butter dip while sipping on Topeka's local brews or a wine slushy.
