They say that masks are needed to enter but once you walk in all you see are guests without masks and nobody saw this as a bad thing during a pandemic. I wanted to go out with a friend for the first time in almost a year and previously called to see if they required masks. They only said that if the guest has a medical condition they arent required to wear a mask and I noticed the employees dont ask questions (they cant legally so I understand) but they should at least ask them to put it on. Only about 2% of the people tonight were wearing masks. Checking Temps and requiring mask for entrance is not enough to stop a pandemic.
Clean, inexpensive, and easy to navigate roller rink. Plenty of tables to rest at, even little couches at the end of the rink to take a breather while in the middle of skating. The music is fun, although leans more to the contemporary side versus music from 00, 90s, etc on a Saturday night. The crowd is respectful, some families, young kids, a few people on dates, but mostly teenagers which is fun to see. There are a lot of good skaters in Fort Wayne! Definitely worth checking out if youre looking for some wholesome good fashion fun. I cant speak to birthday parties as I went on a Saturday night with my husband. I want to go back to get better and more comfortable with skating and this is the rink Ill go to in the future. 4 stars because the drinks/refreshments were overly expensive so maybe bring your own.
Nice place. The floors were even and easy to skate on. The music wasnt the best but it was a fun time
Very nice experience me and my family enjoyed it you can recomend songs and they play games you can win prizes
Awesome place to skate, great friendly environment, dj is awesome on Thursday adult skate, come roll every Thursday from 8:30/10:30
Went to have a fun night with friends and instead we had the most horrible interaction with the DJ. Not sure if it’s because he’s the owner or something, and he felt like there were no consequences for his actions, but there was absolutely NO REASON for him to be as disrespectful as he was. Ruined every bit of good memories I had at this place, definitely not returning again
Nostalgia everywhere! Recent repainting and still same family ownership. Lovely and accommodating! Did an engagement shoot here and price and service was unreal! 10/10 reccomend!
Great time! Friendly efficient staff! The kids had a ton of fun!!
Come here last night with a group of friends because we all haven’t been here ever since 5th grade. My friend was on the carpet leaning against the rails & spelled some drink on the floor bc someone accidentally bumped into him. The DJ DOES NOT know how to handle a situation. He came and started cussing my friend out and called him a “Moran”. Dude needs to be fired to treat a customer with that kind of disrespect.
My first time there. It was very nice and very inviting. There was not alot of people. It was family night. 8.00 per person plus 2 dollars for skate rental. For dinner we ordered a pizza special with a large pizza, a pitcher of a soft drink and 40 tokens for 20.00. No tax. One of the dj family surprised him with 2 cakes and invited everyone to have a piece. That was very kind of them. The kids also played some games with their tokens.
My family went on family night. It was fun, but if you are a child or inexperienced watch out! There were a few older couples there with no children and they were laughing at people ( kids and adults) that fell. The more experienced skaters were also basically running people over. Had groups of people in both openings to get onto the rink floor, and they wouldnt move thus blocking everyone else from being able to get out or in. Despite this we still had a remotely enjoyable time. Going to try a rink closer to our house next time (we drove 45 minutes to get there) instead.
I was very impressed with the ownership of this establishment. I took my two oldest kids roller skating for the first time here. After one attempt around the rink, they knew it wasnt for them and wanted to leave. We mentioned in leaving that the kids didnt enjoy it and that is why we we were leaving so soon. The female at the entrance gave us a full refund which I was shocked because I wasnt expecting that. I offered to give her some of the $ back and she refused. This is how you should run a business and when you care about your customers it shows. I wish I could say I would be attempting to bring my kids back, but they gave me the impression that it was a one and done. However, anyone reading this review I would say that you should definitely check the RollerDomeNorth out. It is a fun environment and they go out of your way to make sure that your business is appreciated.
Of course it was great, I go every sat and meet up with all my homies bruh. I have to say the slushies should be more,,,,,, slushy ya know? But everything else was cool. The music is cool but I feel like they should put a paper down for ppl to recommend cuz a lot of times that get the song wrong :0
Last night was my first time taking my kids here & we honestly couldnt have had a better experience.. Im from Youngstown, OH & was expecting just another dive rink run by ignorant, entitled teenagers; but this was CERTAINLY not that by a long shot!We will definitely be back & make certain to learn the names of the 3 who ran the front - 1 very sweet woman & 2 very helpful men who went above & beyond to help me keep up the pace with my 2 wild monster babesThanks for a great night! See you soon!
Friendly staff, good environment, as clean as roller rinks get.Went here for our kids school skating party. They had a great time - what more could we want?
The staff and guests of Roller Dome did not have masks on. Why?
I love the Roller Dome. The only thing that has changed since I went there as a kid 20 years ago is the location of the DJ booth and the bathrooms. (The stall doors no longer have a big hole/window cut out in them. Terrible design for a bathroom door. ) Its pretty affordable for a few hours of fun. Kids can skate and play games, get food.
Would give 0 stars if I could. The owner of this place has the manners of a cockroach. I lost my belonging here and asked politely if I could look for it, I was told by the owner “I’m trying to leave early so no”. Not going back. Plus there was roaches running all throughout the dome. Won’t be returning ever.
Still awesome even as an adult. My daughter loves this place just as much as I did when I was a kid. Keep up the good work guys!
Kids loved it and they were over the top with keeping things sanitized.
The only place to skate in my opinion My only gripe is they don’t take music requests. As a customer I don’t demand you play all the music I love. I understand you have to play a variety for the crowd. I asked for a Rob Zombie song and the DJ said that song wasn’t appropriate as kids were there. Then 2 songs later played a song talking about about having sex and having A$$ said multiple times. I’m fine with songs like that but don’t tell me mine is inappropriate and then play that.
Ive been coming here for over 20 years and it is without a doubt, the most awesome family fun place in town. You cant find a more wholesome activity thats more healthy for you! Everyone enjoys it and they have plenty of fun and games for everyone including an amazing snack bar with the best pretzels in town!
I love skating so much but I really wish they left roller some south open
The entrance price was reasonable and the amenities are pretty decent. The only issue I had was they rent the walkers to kids of all ages. There were 10 and 11 year old kids goofing off with them, bumping in to things and falling all over. Trying to get around in here is a nightmare. The floor is littered with walkers. Its chaos!
Fun from back in the day, the kids walkers are annoying. Center hand rail would be safer for all skaters in my opinion.
This was the hang out before my time but it was still popular when i was growing up it was a safe place to enjoy friends. Our parents never had to worry about us and they knew staff locked up tighter than fort knoxs when it was a all night skate. Workers were awsome and food was super yummy.
Great atmosphere great place to get a good full body workout in.
We came in to town for a visit and needed to take the kids out for some fun. Roller Dome North was open accommodating hours during Spring Break and offered a family rate. Their facility was well organized and clean. Their music was fun and appropriate. The snack bar had a ton of options and the food was fresh and hot. They use a pager system to ensure promptness. We appreciated that they offer the skate walkers for our 2 year old and that they had skates that went over her shoes. It was a fantastic experience and we will definitely be back again!
Had my daughters lil birthday party here...cool spot...the girls had fun and their pizza was pretty good too!!!
I have been visiting this place since I was a teenager, 20 years or so. Im not a kid anymore, but they have an 18+ adult night skate every Thursday evening, so you can enjoy the rink without the kids! Thursday night is a great time and very fun place to bring a new date!
Its a fun but the people who serve the food werent on track
A nice place for kids birthday partys
My kids and I cannot like it here
I loved it! Kinda like stepping inside a time capsule and going back to 1986, and I mean that as a compliment. With all the negativity in the world today, a little bit of roller skating is a refreshing change.
The pizza was awesome. Very friendly staff. We had a great time. Great place to spend a Sunday afternoon.
I love the roller dome and always have. We had my granddaughters birthday party there and had a blast. I havent skated in 20 years and I only crashed once although there were some close calls lol. You will never have a boring time here and the kids will be wore out after there done skating. If you want something to do with or without the kids...GO SKATING!!!
The best place in Fort Wayne for family fun! Very entertaining! Wonderful staff, music and lots of games. They even have Lazer Tag! The Cafe has great food and the pretzels are delicious! Yum!!
We always love going to the roller dome. My girls are pretty inexperienced roller skaters oh, so theyre a little bit nervous out on the floor, but the roller dome offers these skating assistance made of PVC pipes that gives them so much more confidence. the staff is always really friendly too.
Good atmosphere, well lit skating rink. Seats for resting and for non-skaters. Some food for purchase and a few paid games.
Have been skating here for 30 years and not much has changed other than its now my kids skating instead of me :)
Great skating rink! Lots of fun!
Love the roller dome even at 56
Awesome place to spend family time! The kids have a great time!
Good, clean, affordable fun for the whole family. My nieces love it, and its pretty easy to enjoy a night out with great customer service and a the best tunes of then and now.
A Ft.Wayne institution. locally owned and family operated. Theres not really anything negative that I could ever think of when considering the Roller Dome. They try to keep it modern and interesting for new generations. Way to go Wall Family!
My kids and I love to skate
They treat they regular better
Always loved this place. Still great. Hope its always here in the Fort
Skating was affordable and fun. The food and drink selection left much to be desired.
Nice place to skate! Smaller footprint inside where the tabled area is than I would have guessed, but still nice. Was there for a kids birthday party (daughter of a dear friend of mine) and found the staff there very helpful with bringing food out, replenishing drinks, as well as furnishing plates, cups, spoons, etc. Will definitely consider having a party there in the future for my son as I found it to be a very good experience.
Great customer service we had a wonderful time. We are definately going back!
Lots of fun with the family
Great. Love it.
We had a party for our son here while visiting from out of state. Overall the value for the price we paid was fair. Our server was very accommodating and the younger DJ was great with the kids and the games. The history of the skating rink was interesting to read and they even had a letter from the White House displayed on the wall. The skates seemed as old as the building and I had to try a few pairs before I found some that worked. They provided everything you would need for the party except the cake. Definitely worth visiting!
Food is trash. Very poor quality for the price paid.
Roller Dome North was great but the only bad thing about it was they said they couldnt play a rock song. But over all my time at the roller dome was GREAT!
That a great time with my kids but they could have played more hip-hop
Place hasnt changed in 30+ years. Friendly staff, good experience taking my kids there.
I have fun here. You have to put youre belongings in a clothes basket and stuff it under a table or somewhere, so that situation could be better. Overall its a great place to roll.
Are you ready to give me a job yet
A long great fun history with the roller dome. Mrs.Wall was one of the very best in my opinion.
I have been coming here every Friday and Saturday since June. and I never really had a problem until last night I addressed the situation to the staff, and they didn’t do anything about it and then try to kick me out for trying to handle a situation myself.
Great place to meet friends
Good service and great fun
Wouldve rated a 5 star but one of the workers allowed outside people into our private party. That bothered me because we didnt pay for that. We had 2 issues with this at the same event.
This is fantastic place to learn and enjoy.The stuff is very cooperative.
This place is awesome!! First time here. The staff is very nice . It a good clean, safe environment to come and gave fun with family :)
Wish I can go there
I Go Sundays & Have Done Parties Great Entertainment Place For The Kids
Good place but the prices are kind of high. Also in need of major renovation. I used to skate every weekend there 18 years ago and it looks exactly the same inside and out. Also skates look the same...lol but kids do love this place. Fun and memorable. Just need to spend some of that profit to give back to the consumer. Also some stupid rules there. And highly enforced...lol as if the staff is paid 25 bucks an hour when in fact I Kno they dont even make 10...lol
There was someone who had injured herself on the floor (broke her ankle) and they had to call.paramedics to assist the lady. The owner was asked to stop the music/skating so that the paramedics could get on the floor to assist the lady and the owner Margie refused to cooperate. No compassion
I highly recommend, if your looking for a good place to spend time with family, or for a birthday party, or even to just get away from the house.
My favorite place besides my real home.
Came here for Fathers Day because dads get in free and its all you can eat pizza for everyone. They are very stingy with the pizza. There are 6 in our group and not once did we have a slice at the same time. The skates that were rented are in a major need of repairs and the laces were breaking . I do not recommend coming here and will not be returning myself.
The Roller Dome North is one of the most fun places to take your children in Fort Wayne! It is clean family fun at a fair price. The food choices are good and very inexpensive. They also have neat birthday parties which I have had for my kids. They just added laser tag which the kids are very excited about. My kids love playing their games and apparently they are very up to date.
Only one around. Not bad, its been here forever
Great place fun time
Great place for bday parties.
All the employees are so kind and prices are low to have up to 3-10 hours of fun
Great place for kids and family. friendly owners and staff who helped me and my family with 10 kids. Let me keep my coupons and gave me a better deal
Fun for all ages
Kids had fun.. but couldnt bring in brithday cake bc we didnt get the party packages
Fun skate night & I am not an experienced skater anymore. Loved the atmosphere!
Had my daughters birthday party yesterday, and was very disappointed. She was supposed to have a hostess, the hostess was late and didnt make it to our table until 30 min after the party started. That was the only time we saw the hostess as she was doing other things. We were supposed to have the hostess for the entire 2 hours. Was told we had to wait for our hostess to get tickets for the skates. We were asked when we would like to get our drinks, and we never received those either. Our young skaters were thirsty, and I had to go to the snack bar to ask for those. I have had a lot of parties at skating rinks, usually at Bells in New Haven, and theres by far blew Roller Dome North out of the water. They may not have a hostess, but at least they allow you to bring food for your guests, and they dont treat you like your not important once they received their money. We felt very cheated & very mislead from their advertising. We wont be back!!
Awesome place. Just like when I was a kid
Always a favorite!
This place is a staple in Fort Wayne. Always a safe place to take the kids.
On Saturdays they have beginner lessons
Kids had a good time. Very friendly staff and management team who thanked us for coming out.
Check online for special events. Like family fun night. Pizza buffet night.
Went for a birthday party...they overbooked and the other party got what they paid for. Thats all I have to say about that.
Perfect party place!!
Should go to 12 then it would be Aldut night
Been coming to this place more then 40 years, always good clean fun!
