Omg i loved it!! The older man, im guessing owner was extremely sweet! He was very helpful and patient with us. I told him where we lived and he said we were far from home but he was thankful we went to the skating ring. Thier is few skating rings at all anymore and and this one is great! They do need updating but the atmosphere makes up for it. We didnt know it was cash only so we had 20$ we paid for entrances and then i saw my kids come with snowcones and waters and candies for thier baby brother. I asked the my kids how they paid for so much. My oldest said we gave him what we had and he asked us what we wanted. I thanked him of course. I cant wait to go back!! Great music as well

Rink is a bit on the smaller side and the floor is a bit too rough and bumpy. If youre a beginner, however, it shouldnt really matter what terrain youre on because you wont be able to tell. Aside from that, this is a great place to skate. Its not the best, but it is good.

Pretty cool. Location is not the best but its right off of beltway 8. I go with my daughter and we always have a good time. 3 stars because of cleanliness and gross bathrooms. Also parking could be better.

I love this place.. I never roller skated before and I was really satisfied for my first experience.. very pleasant place and everybody that works there seems to be really humble. I just love the way they treat everybody. One of my friends came to take videos and photos and didnt want to skate. The owner himself let him in free of charge. They have hotdogs, popcorn, nachos, chips, soft drinks (fountain). Amazing place to go to.. especially with kids

Great price. Better than paying to sit and watch movies. Youre moving and having lots of fun. Kiddos love it. Its $4.50/person on Wed and Thurs and Thurs is also family night so parents skate free. Nostalgic, reminds me of my childhood, which was a blast!

I had a blast here as a kid & now my kids have a blast here.The place has been open for 36 years and looks EXACTLY as it did the 1st time I stepped foot in the door. But to me thats great. My kids get to have incredible fun (without phones or tablets in hand) & I get a little nostalgia.

The floors looked nice. Old guy at the counter. Nice but we left! What kinda music was that!!! Umm no. Nothing you could dance to let alone skate to thats for sure. They need to update. Groove music from the 70s, 80s hit pop like MJ, culture club, 90s hip hop has something for everyone.

I would have given one more star but my kids were telling me how rude the lady serving drinks had been to them and to some others. Smile lady they are kids at a skating ring having fun. At least they arent out egging houses and breaking into stuff.

The speakers towards the front arent working but other than that the kids had a great time. The staff was awsome and very helpful. The prices on the video games are pretty cheap as well.

So much fun. Just wish they would play age appropriate music. We ended up leaving because the music was too rated r for our little ones.

This is such an amazing place, the people who work here are amazing and really nice, i would highly recommend it. I started skating when i was 5 and now am 14, over that time i used to go to a different one because i lived in a different place, once i moved i stopped for about 3 years, then my sister brung me here and i began to make a lot of friends(the people who work/come here) and i started going every thursday and friday and i have loved it every since

Your average skate rink. Older Management (owner seemed to be sweet old man) with teens/young adult employees. Didn’t eat the food but it smelled good, didn’t use the restroom. $7 skate CASH ONLY. It’s a bit out of my way but I went for the music, 90’s-Today’s Top, Hip Hop, R&B. Building could use some TLC a little out dated and the floor is a bit warped in spots. Arcade games, pool tables. Lots of room to sit. Quarter lockers available. Looked like they had a kid drop off, and pick up but not much supervision except they don’t let younger ones leave out without an adult. Overall happy with my experience.

The place is fun but we are never going back there again because the manager or whatever was SO disrespectful to her employees.EX:1. 2 of the skaters employees took a break to get water and she told them to get back skating because what the were doing (taking a break) was Not there job.2. She told two children that they need to get off the skate floor and get out and they can talk to people outside.3. She made one of the employees cry. That is what really ticked me off because if you work your supposed to work together but she was yelling and everything and I was so heart broken when the girl started crying.

We decided to try something new, decided to check out a rollerrink! First things first the owners are disrespectful and rude. I and the two people I was with walked all the way to the end of the seating area to be away from everybody, just to have some older lady get on THE SPEAKER AND REPEATEDLY Say get up get up get up yea you three back there get up get up get up (in a very rude and demeaning tone) me being such a nice person just got up and moved lol but really it was just so embarrassing and rude of her, it took me a moment to really grasp what had just happened & I couldnt believe it. There is absolutely no adult supervision, it was practically a child ran daycare. Kids running around doing whatever they wanted, fighting cussing and kissing. Its like a kids night club without alcohol, or who knows, there could have been anything in there. Kids are allowed to be dropped off, the lady makes an announcement a few times saying if you need a ride call them now! At one point there was a fight between two teenage girls and then a young guy came in and started fighting one of the girls. The fight lasted way to long, nobody there stop it. This place is a liability just waiting to happen. Besides all that, I had a great time busting my butt. The shoes are gross but ehh kind of expected. Entry was $7. Would I go back? Probably not.

I skate here and the rink is good quality, not only does it have games and a snack bar but a roller skating coach who teaches competitive figure skating on roller skates. I rate this place a five!

This place has not changed its appearance since it opened up, I was a teen when I would go to GT skate, when you walk in you feel like you stepped back in time, the disco globe etc. The kids still love this place and I hope they never change the look of it because thats what gives it character.
