Great place to have fun and chill. You can listen to music and skate or play games while eating snacks. You can compete to get a free drink from the shack bar. Classes are great as well, they will teach your kids everything you need to know. Definitely recommend you going there.

Amazing! It gets a little warm and they dont have walkers but they have a long wall to hold on to and the people are friendly.

Wow, this took me waay back. Pretty much the same as it ever was. Literally same music! Watched cousin race, cool. Great place for kids to be. Very aware staff is on it. Came outside and made me put my puppy on a string. Thanks for keeping me in check, no really, i meant it.

Weve been here several times and love this skating rink! Its very family friendly, its easy to get in and out of the rink, they switch the direction at least once during the skate, and they dont have those skate walker supports. The problem with those skate walker things is as soon as a kid falls with it, they take up the entire area in front of you and now its hard not to fall yourself. Plus Auburn skate has a nice wide easy to hold onto wall to use. Which keeps the newbie skaters all towards the edge instead of in the middle where theyre crashing into people or getting right in the way so people cant avoid crashing into them. Plus they let you come in for free if you want to help your kids skate and you can walk next to your kid. The staff is all super chill too!

Nice people work there. Its managed well. Offers exactly what a rink should: good floor, plenty of space, and flexibility on the music. Always an awesome time when I go!!

For those of us who remember the glory days of Skate King, Auburn Skate is a welcome throwback. The skate rentals are inexpensive, and there are both quads and blades a available for rental. There is a small snack bar with very reasonably priced snacks and drinks for sale.There are birthday party packages available, complete with pizza. And there is a small arcade section for when your feet get tired.

The whole team at Auburn Skate made sure our group had a fantastic evening of skating. The pizza was great, the games were fun, and everyone in our party had a blast. The manager Steve went above and beyond - we can’t thank him enough!

Awesome roller rink with a great family friendly atmosphere and reasonable prices. The rental skates are also pretty comfortable for rentals. The place is a little run down, but I think most skating rinks are like that these days.

Best roller rink in the Seattle area and weve hitt them all! Rink floor is well maintained, smooth, fast, and bigger than some other rinks. Music selection usually is pretty good. Family skate has games and races to spice up the session. Employees are helpful and generously give skating tips. Only drawback is snack bar is kinda weak, but we came to skate right?

Sunday night adult skate. Not a ton of people, which isnt necessarily a bad thing. Great staff and friendly patrons.

Review №19

Nice rink, reasonably priced. Music is terrible - they play outdated tunes their target clientele don’t even know, rather than current hits that would make it fun for the 8-14 year old crowd that makes up the majority of the skaters. Also, not enough fun & games (where is the hokey pokey, and 4 corners, etc?)

Fun, nostalgic rink. I knew if this rink since tge early nineties had yet to visit. Went for a childs bday party. Great family environment. Our child noticed the roller rink floor itself seemed to be larger than Pattisons west. Between Tiffanys (Puyallup) Pattisons west (Federal Way) and Auburn Skate, you do have a few choices in the area. My hats off to all 3 as I am very big on Americana roller rinks, drive-ins etc. I would have to give a nod to Tiffanys though. All 3 are wonderfully updated and fun !!! The music played, in my opinion is just done better. More my flavor. Plus they are carpeted everywhere off the floor. And of course they do have the big miniature golf course outside adjacent to the rink. Food ? Slight nod to Pattisons West. Tiffanys...maybe a tie there )

Auburn Skate is a very clean, well run, family friendly place. So great to still have an inexpensive venue where kids and adults can go to exercise, have fun, and socialize. Thanks to the great staff and owner who work so hard to keep a clean, safe environment. Great place for birthday parties too!

My kids love going to this place! Every time we go it seems like a packed house which is what makes it fun for the kids. Staff is very friendly and always seem ready to help. I just wish they were readily open more often so I can take my kids more! I will say that the skates that we rent out, often seem to not hold very well though.

I work at a learning center. We go every year for our field trips. The staff are absolutely wonderful with the children. We had a group about 30 children. The children being new to skating fall a lot. Staff was on the rink making sure the children were okay . Showing them how to skate and get back up if they fall. We had a great time! Thanks for all you do.

Great for birthday parties or just a night out with the children. It also contains lessons and expert skaters whom are the kindest people youll ever meet. The skating rink had been there for 20+ years and continues to provide stellar service. Keep it up!

Normally Id give it a 5 on a Saturday night family skate and other nights as well but tonight for an Elementary school skate night Id say it wasnt a 5. Cold Nachos and corn dogs and no games like the corner game or the hokey pokie.

Review №43

The rink is okay the floors are nice and clean staff are friendly and welcoming the fact that children under five are free is also a good bonus if you have small children the fact that they dont have skate trainers here is a huge bonus in my book because they are a pain for anyone else on the floor because of their size like other rinks have and those skate trainers really dont help children learn how to skate and then theres a bunch of kids falling all over the place and trainers flying everywhere its a mess. The one thing that is really disappointing about this rink is the concession stand. they charge $5.25 for a pitcher of water that they fill up in the sink and charge another 5.25 to refill it with more sink water. I can understand you can charge $0.50 for the cup and the straw but for $5 for some tap water is a bit insane I know they have a water fountain but that is inconvenient when you are eating something.

Review №48

I took 9 kids from my third grade class at church and after reading all the negative reviews, was pretty nervous and skeptical. But from the moment I walked in, I received great service. Super friendly staff in the front and the food court. Only glitch, the girl handing out the skates kept giving one of my students two right skates. It was twice that she did that. She seemed pretty preoccupied with hanging out with some friends near the snack area. And I went expecting the food to be expensive but the large pizza was a surprise. It was pretty small. I ordered two large but should have ordered three. Oh well. But I have to say, for the most part, the staff was great!! I will definitely come back with my church kiddos.

Great welcoming place for a good time! Today I did family skate and had a blast! I look forward to my upcoming private party! I like the 50 cent lockers of different sizes! They recycle! In the ladys room, they have different sized toilets! The atmosphere was set up for a good time! Everything was clean and tidy.

Really nice rink. Got a little crowded in the seating area when there were a couple parties and a lot of kids, but Im sure adult skate or something would be great. Either way, a good skating experience and good skates. Fun lights on the walls and okay music

Smells like an old-school skate rink, and always has (thats a good thing)! Great music, diverse crowd. Glad they fixed it up after the roof collapsed, was afraid theyd shuttered it. Family friendly, lots of parking.

Coming here is like stepping back into childhood. I basically at this rink when I was 11-13, going as often as I could beg my parent to pay and provide transportation. There was something super special about coming back (to some changes) to bring my own kids to enjoy it for themselves.From my experience as a child and with my own, I highly recommend starting with a Saturday skating lesson. They teach the basics that allow kids the confidence for an open skate. If you stay for the open skate after (that is included in the lesson) the lesson ends up costing barely anything but will allow them to fully enjoy the following open skate. Its scary to get on wheels for the first time so its priceless, especially for the timid type like my youngest, or the I dont want to look stupid type like myself and my oldest.

Never knew this place existed. Small family owned spot. Plays okay music. Could use some renovations on the inside, looks very old and dated. Session times are long, which is okay cause you get more for your money. No refills on the expensive drinks and they serve cold pretzels.

We arranged a private rental for two roller derby games (closed door) from afar. The staff was wonderful to work with and helped us to accommodate all of our needs. Their pricing was very reasonable and they were understanding of our need to stretch the time schedule. I would absolutely recommend visiting them for a free skate or working with them for a rental.The facility has been kept in good condition and while it was limited in seating and had fairly dim lighting, everything worked out well for our needs.
