Visitor tip
If you're new to skating or bringing young children, take advantage of their knowledgeable and patient skating instructors who come highly recommended by visitors—the lessons are worth booking.
Visitor tip

What visitors say
This place is sweet! Reasonable prices and the staff are super friendly and helpful. My only critique is that the music is so loud that you can't hear anyone talking to you, even when they yell 😂
Me and my kids had a time of our lives. Don’t be no rowdy stuff and there’s plenty of space it’s clean.
I have been going here since I was a child. Very outdated and raggedy floors. Beyond that its still a good place to get your skate on and have a good time. The staff is friendly. The music is great. The pro shop have what you need…
