Great place for beginner skaters to learn (not too crowded), just beware of some daring kid skaters, lol. My only issue with this place is that the floor over to the front side near the game machines has a warp that can cause you to lose balance and fall, & if that ever happens to me & Im injured badly, I will sue b/c Ive complained to them about it and have told them to mark that part of the floor with a taped X (until they can fix it) but they havent and I respect that b/c its their business. I like going here but I dont love it.

Well I fell and busted my 38 yr old rear but hadnt been on skates in ab 20 years! 😂🤣 l love the nostalgia of the skating rink and taking the kids to skate! Not many rinks left anymore and this one is great. And yummy food! Excellent service.

We had a birthday party here a few days ago and added on the mini golf. We were incredibly disappointed in the golf part. Im not sure how its considered updated - it was rundown with weeds, rust, peeling paint, etc. Theres a small pool for what might once have been a water feature but it was stagnant, dirty water with trash in it. Even the kids were commenting on how run-down it was.Worst of all, the entire course is completely infested with fire ants. They were EVERYWHERE, not just in the grass/weeds. The actual golf areas were covered and the cup at one hole was literally full of them!The rest of the party was really fantastic and everyone had a great time. It was great having such a fun party all put together for me. Its just sad that it ended with so many guests being bitten by ants.

Our party host was Brittany and she was wonderful! She was very attentive and sweet! I dont think that I have received excellent customer service like this in a longtime.

I love taking my kids here to skate. I love to skate myself. The place could use some updates, but either way, we love to go.

I took my 3 kids one is 4 one is 8 and one just turned 11. There was teens who where throwing a ball on the rink and threw it at my 8 year old daughter in the back. My kids about got ran over by them, knocked down and the only thing that was done was the ball was taken away. Please do not being your kids here.

The Google page shows times for Sunday session is 2pm till 5pm. 4 of us drove down from Anderson to skate. Stood at door from 1:55 until 2:30 when someone in the growd of about 15 standing in waiting pulled up the website and noticed the calendar had no time for session today only private parties and after looking at page noticed no sessions on Sunday during the summer.... Wasnt posted on door nor any change in time on Google page. Highly disappointed with the experience.

I love this place but when I was here a few hours ago I went to skate and I had a hoodie over my drink and little box bag, someone stole my phone charger, $6, and two pieces of gum then threw the box bag in the trash. So now I don’t have a charger and I’m broke. I’m just happy they didn’t take my airpods 😭 but my stuff is gone.

Review №18

Daughter and her friend was put out on the street for not having a mask on. They had one but simply asking them to put it on was not good enough. Was kicked out and not even allowed to wait in the parking lot. What kind of establishment wont even let kids wait on their parents in the parking lot. Poorly managed and frankly is a delapidated relic of the community. Use to be a good place years ago. Now is nothing more than an abandoned warehouse with Christmas lights.

The last time I came here, it was pretty rough the entire time, me and two of my buddies came and we had some fun minus the people constantly crashing into us if we were going slow, but once we went to leave there was a huge fight between some teenagers and some older guy and they were chasing his son and beating him up too, dunno what happened to this place but it used to be good.

When I went. My two little sisters and my mom went. Everyone was out of control. Cussing. Running over little kids. My family was walking out and the teenage boy ran over my little sister. Teenagers were tackling each other. It was cray. Definitely do not recommend to anyone.

Review №28

I adore skating here and I’ve usually had no problems what so ever here. But my last visit was quite upsetting. Me and some friends all pitched in to win something from a machine, and once we finally won it we didn’t actually win the prize, just credit for the shop. There was no sign or anything that said we wouldn’t get the prize we were paying money to try to win. False advertising. On the other hand we won a lot of tickets, guess it was fine but we were disappointed.

We did a birthday party at Skate Away. It was so easy. All the teenagers had a blast. Skate. Laser Tag. Pizza. Drinks. I did not have to do anything. The staff even cleaned up. Perfect place to do a party. Everyone had a great time.

Review №32

If I could rate this place a 0 I would. The owners son/manager Justin is a rude arrogant individual to kids. If the parent isn’t right with the kid he talks to them like they are a dog. I do NOT recommend anyone going here.It won’t let me reply to your response to my review, so I will do it here. My child was not doing anything wrong. I spoke of nobody but Justin. He slammed a trash can into my kid being a smart butt. If I had it to do over again I would of pressed charges. As a matter of fact I think I’m going to see if there is a statue of limitations on an adult assalting a child. I still have the video of where I confronted you about it, in which you admitted you thought your actions were appropriate!! Last night my kid was simply trying to charge his phone in the only outlet available to them and you told him he had to leave. You wouldn’t even let him explain. You cut him off. He was in no way disrespectful to you. PLEASE don’t expose your child to him. If you do decide to go I would stay very close to my child and listen to anything he says to them. You say it’s a family facility that’s there to protect the children. That’s a joke. They need protection from you. You go around cussing in front of the children and talking down to them. You can play nice on here if you want but the truth shall set you free my friend. Don’t make out like I was inappropriate in front of anyone in there. Our conversation was in the lobby with no children present, which I also have on video.

Review №38

Paid for the super star party and added on a extra pizza and lazer tag. The party was great, the pizza left something to be desired. The only real issue we had was the staff apparently lets their children play laser tag with everyone which I am not happy about since I paid for my party to play and their children just got in the way.

Im a parent who used to skate in MN. hockey and roller skates. I give them two stars for allowing me to use my indoor wheel rollerblades. Their decently priced but the quality of the rental skates are questionable and employees skating are reckless. One knocked my 9 year old daughter down and broke her finger. it was fun while lasted but I dont think Ill be returning any time soon.

Review №47

How mediocre can a business be? Stop by here and have a look to find out. It took 10 minutes for a cashier to arrive up front to let us into the rink area. No one there seems to be really interested in delivering any customer service of any sort. Antique skates for rent. Generic and lukewarm concessions. It just seems like, at best, none of the employees give a rip about their work.

Compliment and keep reading for the awful result my children love going here. The owner Justin, has always been very helpful so I have trusted him and his staff with my treasures. HOWEVER, last night, Saturday, May 4th, 2019. My beautiful 12 year old wa being harassed by a older boy. No she didnt complain. She is not that type nor did she think anything would come from it. Well. This boy came up to her and punched her so hard in. The stomach for asking him to leave her alone. She could not go tattle because it took her breath away so her friends got her to the bathroom. She was balling her eyes out this will NOT be tolerated. I told the sheriff I want charges filed. Maybe we will save a female from this jerk that thinks he can beat on females.

Friday nights and sat nights alot of children are unattended we would go back and forth to our full drinks on the table in-between our breaks the snack bar threw our full drinks away . We confronted the manager at a distance, while confronting him he stepped in my brothers face about to start a fight. He needs to be fired.

This place is terrible. They put the freezer, where pizza and other food is, RIGHT next to skates are. You can see it clearly, to the left. Super gross. The pizza is sprayed with I dont know and it takes FOREVER. No one works there. The girls are so rude, not even a smile. I do not recommend wasting your money.

I think they need a staff member that is not a teenager. It is impossible to get waited on at the snack bar. 3 kids back there to work and noone waits on you. To be fair...its always like that. Just my opinion.

Review №83

Skating there is fun. But most of the stuff they serve on the menu they dont have. And the most popular stuff that sell is either broken or they dont have any. The worst money stealing machine there is the vending machines. If you insert a quarter, it wont except it and it wont give youre money back. Sometimes it will work. And sometimes you cant even get what you want eventhough its in there. The workers at the food court are rude and play to much that they dont have pizza or popcorn ready to serve, and when there making it (becuase they play around) it takes so long to come out. The workers rush you to hurry up and order. Im only going there to skate from now on.

Review №84

Absolutely horrible!!! Blonde with braid pigtails behind the counter was a complete b!tch. What the hell is the point of spending $60 on games if the damn girl behind the counter is standing around refusing to take the tickets so the kids can get there prizes. She was rude as hell. Even shut the damn light off behind the counter so we’d go away. She said she was helping the other girl but she just stood there doing NOTHING!!!!!!! F her!! Horrible horrible customer service. That damn cun+ owes my kid a apology for being so unbelievably rude
