Really cool little gem of a park. Free skating, rentals available and relatively inexpensive. Nice to have a Starbucks to warm up in. Beautiful place, surrounded by tall buildings and a fun atmosphere. My kids loved it, variety of child skates and training skates available for rent, too. Red Arrow should be on everyones Milwaukee bucket list.

Its a nice place but I think its a little expensive for the skate shoe rental. Family friendly place.

Red Arrow park skating rink is an excellent place to skate, if you bring your own its free. There is a rental area as well as a Starbucks.They zamboni the ice throughout the course of the day. Overall a fun family experience. Only shortcoming would be parking, but youre going downtown so you knew that already

A small, but classic park dedicated to the 32nd Infantry Division. I have family members who served in this unit, so the stop had extra meaning to me. Get a coffee or a hot chocolate from Starbucks.

The ice rink is great, but, what I really loved about it, was that it gave me a great way to spend some time with the person I love!

Review №54

There is nothing better than the feeling of being in a snowglobe, feeling the breeze on my face, listening to music, watching kids zipping in circles & engagements happening in front of Christmas trees. The sound of the cities clocks chiming in the dense air and the sounds of that city...all churning while being on a Slice of Ice at Red Arrow Park. Top it off with a warm beverage and cookie from the attached Starbucks!! I feel alive and free and invigorated when Im there and Im sad when the season closes! Everybody needs to check it out!!! Oh, save some dough by bringing your own skates!! They do rent skates as well as sharpen blades. The have locker rentals and a fireplace. This place is a Great Asset to downtown Milwaukee and a Jewel to the County park system! Have Fun

This park became famous in Milwaukee in recent years past. They offer many amenities such as coffee, roller blading, roller skating, and in winter: Ice skating. Red arrow is very small in diameter and width. While driving pass if you blink your eyes, you just might miss it.

Well I had a Carmel frappe here. Not good as McDonalds or other places Ive tried. It has its own signature and its ok. This is perhaps real coffee. I was tired n I did get a little wake up lol.

Not too much to see here except starbucks. This is more of a walk thru park where people ice skate in the winter. I did see some homeless people sleeping on benches here as well as approached by a few.

Great starbucks here. Cute ice rink. There was violence towards a person by a security officer, causing the persons death. At this park, and it appears he is not properly remembered by the park.. He should really have a monument along side the 32nd monuments. His rock that had his name on it is warn and flowers are gone. Wonder what can be done about this... Commemoration seems appropriate. Otherwise, great park.

The Google hours said that the park would close at 10, which it could, but the hours for ice skating is different from the park hours, and even the hours of the ice skating business on Google (not just the park). unfortunately, using Google to look for ice skating opportunities made me miss my appointment with the frozen wonderland

This is not much of a park, but come in the winter for an iconic WIsconsin ice-skating experience. The small rink is well maintained and, although crowded, is thoroughly enjoyable. BTW, there is a Starbucks inside the pavilion, so it is easy to grab a snack and coffee . . .

Perfect place to go unicycling on Tuesdays or ice skating once the snow falls. Starbucks coffee is adjacent.

Review №89

Im giving this rink only three stars because last year the ice was too slippery. Hopefully they will get that under control this year. Allow me to apologize in advance for knocking over your child and/or grandmother.The skating rink at Red Arrow Park is everything Christmas is--cold and busy, dangerously romantic, not effortless but rewarding. Merry is the only word for it. The Victorian aura is cut somewhat by the monolith Starbucks. I will do what I always do when I see a Starbucks: 1) Hate on it. 2) Get a coffee.
