Just picked up some accessories to freshen up my roller skates and Amber was fun,helpful and patient with me on what color combo I wanted to do with the laces, bolts and nuts. I talked her ear off and she didn’t seem to mind it at all. She was really helpful in the lace lengths as well! Love those gals! 🛼❤️
I’m a first-time roller skates owner so I wanted to go somewhere that I could get some in-person help with choosing my new skates. Amber and Ray were super patient, pleasant and helpful in assisting me with my purchase. I left feeling so confident that I made the right purchase and I cannot wait to use my new skates!!
The place to go if you want personal help with your roller skates!
I loved shopping here for my skates! Great customer service and hospitality! I would totally recommend this place and big thanks to Amber, one of the workers for helping me!
It was such a pleasant experience buying a new pair of skates! Everyone was friendly, Amber was extremely knowledgeable and answered all of my questions with ease. I didn’t go in expecting such exceptional service, however, I left with an awesome pair of skates, more knowledge and a huge smile… Can’t thank them enough!
Amber and Christina in skaters choice skate shop were more than great! It was a fun experience and they are both so knowledgeable. We will definitely be back for any upgrades and questions we have! 😎
Amber and Christina are amazing. They both helped me pick out my new Jackson skates. Amber made sure I got the right fit. And explained the difference in the brands to make sure I picked the right skates for my skate style. I am so happy with my purchase.
Mary Beth was so kind and helpful. I’m so excited about starting this new hobby but a little anxious and she talked me through different skates and what I needed and didn’t. Also, it’s SO awesome that these skates were available! I haven’t been able to find them in stock anywhere!!
We bought our skates here several weeks ago. That experience alone is worth 5 stars but when i came in to upgrade my bearings Marybeth and Amber provided another wonderful experience. Their knowledge is exceptional and one of the reasons i wont shop anywhere else. Take my advice and keep your skate shopping and accessories local. You just wont beat Skaters Choice for the value you receive.
Mary Beth may be the most helpful person when it comes to skates in the whole dang state. She showed me some great plates (I couldnt get them mounted since I was only in town for a few days) and was pretty stocked on everything youd need. I got Atom Pulse Wheels with bearings and a bag. If youre remotely near Tampa, you need to go to this shop.
They have some really good quality skates, I recommend calling ahead or ordering online to make sure they have your size but they have great quality skate products for a very decent price! And the woman that helped me find my skates today was so kind and made sure I found the right skates.Oh and just a tip, the skate shop is inside the roller skating rink but you can go right in and you shouldn’t have trouble finding it if you ask someone who works there.
Best place to get skates!! Large selection and great staff
First time peeking in. Had a great experience with all the people that work there. So kind and chill. Especially CHRISTINA in the skate shop!!! Shout out to HER!!! She was so amazingly helpful and SO patient with me and my little 3y/o monster son while we discussed all the different types of skates, prices, and safety gear! She really made me feel welcomed! The shop is small, but has a good variety of skates, and ACCESSORIES!
Had a great experience at Skaters Choice! Punk and Christina were very knowledgeable and helpful with everything I needed to get started on skating. This will definitely be the place I go anytime I need gear.
We happened to find skaters choice by accident and we are very pleased we did. Amber was so helpful and nice.The entire staff their are friendly and knowledgeable. If your looking for skate gear in Tampa, this is a great place to shop.
I wish I knew her name but anyways the girl who works there is really sweet and good at what she does. She knowledgeable and she sold me my first pair of skates (which I absolutely adore.)Ill be back to get different skates/wheels/gear (:
This is where I buy my skates. I have been purchasing skates from this shop since 2015 - for roller derby, inline, and custom skate builds. I intend on picking up a pair of park skates soon, I highly recommend this shop for all of your quad needs - and decent inline selection as well! Theyre also fully equipped to handle JB and Jam skater needs, Im just not a good rhythm skater.. so I cant speak to that too much. Support your local Tampa skate shop, please.
Not only did i drive 55 mins away to a skate shop. The owner, the associate at the counter and the owners daughter were super helpful. Not only did they go above and beyond but they aren’t out to Just take your money, she educated me on the differences in the wheels, skates and accessories. The best $420 I spent in a while. The associate also wrote some tips down for me on a notepad.EXCEPTIONAL SERVICE!!
They are amazing. Super nice and helped me with everything I needed. Even got to skate my new skates outside the shop! Highly recommend for roller skating needs.
Husband and I wanted to start taking up skating so we are newbies. The staff and very patient, knowledgeable and accommodating with our questions and needs. Both of us purchased skates with upgrade wheels, bearings and laces. Definitely recommend this shop.
Highly recommend! They had very helpful suggestions and I love my purchases :-)
Love coming here and was so grateful for the help that Marybeth provided. Will definitely be back!
I always have a great experience in this shop. i’m really new to skating and didn’t know much about skates. The girls in the shop were so knowledgeable and taught me a lot!! on top of that they are super kind :)
Amber was amazing we came from Kissimmee and she really was very helpful!!!
Disclaimer: I haven’t even been in the store yet. I’ve purchased skates for pick up online. But I have to say that Linda has already been so helpful and prompt in responding to email and helping me get what I need.

Took my wife here today for a birthday surprise and she was thrilled! Everyone was super friendly and we left with a brand new pair of skates that my wife absolutely loves!
LOVE this place! Great customer service, ALWAYS. I make all of my skate purchases here. Amber, Marybeth, & Christina work hard to keep this place running smoothly. They definitely always do the extra mile to make sure that they’re customers are cared for correctly. The shop feels like home, they make you feel like family. All in all, the shop and the ladies running it are AMAZING! Love them lots.
They had several options available at every price point. Mary Beth was a well of knowledge and was super helpful!
If you are thinking of getting some skates, GO SEE AMBER and the ladies at Skaters Choice! Amber was so friendly, knowledgeable and professional. She answered all our questions and was truly above and beyond. It seemed like all the workers in there really show their passion for skating. My girlfriend LOVES her new skates, thank you!
Inside United Skates Tampa.. so its a small store, but the girls who work there are a-maz-ing . So friendly, patient, and helpfull. They really their stuff. I love my new skates and will be coming back to get skates for my kids..
Friendly, knowledgeable staff! They don’t try to upsell you and they are honest about what you really need. Highly recommend!
I can’t recommend this place enough. Got my first pair of skates from here a couple months ago and had a small problem with them nothing that was their fault at all. They went above and beyond to fix it and we’re so nice/helpful every step of the way. Shop local y’all these people are awesome
Very helpful and friendly staff, answered all of my questions. I was very happy with how they helped me pick just the right size. ✅
Amazing service, nice skates and guess what...they even give you free socks if you are not wearing a pair
Wish I had taken some pics in here.The staff are very knowledgeable, super nice, and very efficient.Im just getting back into quad skating after many years. ( Would use getting back loosely. Wasnt much of a skater back then. )They treated me great. Took time to talk to me, teach me some things, and had me feeling really comfortable in their shop.I drove there from Bradenton, over an hour away and will be returning.They also have an online store which is Rey cool
The staff is so helpful! They will make sure to find you the perfect skate, inline or quads! They take the time to find you fit and make your dream set up! They always keep you update with their product and make sure they can get you what you need!Highly recommend for your skating needs!
Stopped by the pro-shop for new bearings. The ladies in the store was awesome and very engaging, we touched on several subjects and they have talked me into coming out to adult skate, one Thursday night in the near future. I will definitely be using them for all future skate needs.
Marybeth was so helpful and friendly! Would come back again!
My kids had a good time. I did not go inside. I dropped them off and came to pick them up when it was over.
I had a 100% positive experience working with these ladies... knowledgeable and extremely patient and helpful. Very impressed with the Wheels Christina suggested.... she nailed exactly what I needed.
We were in to buy roller skates for my daughter for a late christmas gift. The lady that helped up was very friendly, helpful, and informative. I wish I had gotten her name because she was awesome!!
Abhorrent place, skates are always out of stock, overpriced skates, $220 for a pair of simple quad skates, ridiculous. Place hasnt been updated since 1985
The staff are really friendly and helpful.
This is a GREAT place to kick it after 9 they size you up and then your off
Soooo this shop has been around since i was small and even before then so i decided to try the store out. Well lets just say i had Found the perfect skates, the ladies got me the right size quickly and i was out by 10 mins!!!! Customer service was bomb and the ladies were working so hard!! i love the shop, deffff will be back for another pair! thank you so muchhhhhhhh!
Bought a new set of roller blades from the skate shop and the staff there was nothing but helpful.
Super friendly and made sure what I was leaving with was what I needed! Theyre very limited right now but the young lady helped me find a pair!
Never too crowded
Was so amazing. Workers knew so much about skates, great customer service, very open, understanding, and accepting. Lgbtq friendly, and women owned. Love it
The girls were super nice and helpful when sizing and selecting everything. Thank you so much!
Very helpful staff, they always orders the parts we need, we will continue to shop with them.
Went to the shop May 17th of 2020 during COVID-19. I needed some cushions for my old roller skates, but ended walking out with a new pair of skates! Mikey and Christina were very helpful and patient with all of my questions and went above and beyond, they made sure I felt confident about my purchase and even explained on how to maintain and do my own fixes and replacements. Friendly staff and adhering to safety guidelines during the pandemic. Lots of options to choose from, will definitely come back for accessories and wheels !!
Awesome, knowledgeable staff! We especially loved Christine (I believe thats her name). She is very passionate about skating and taught us a lot and was a joy to talk to.My recommendation is to go during slow time. When the store is busy, itll be hard to get that quality attention.
Customer service is excellent they will make sure you get your right size of your skates and anything else you would like to purchase in the store they are very awesome..
This shop is fantastic! I toyed around with the idea of getting some roller derby gear online; however, I was concerned about getting the accurate size equipment and luckily a skate shop was within a reasonable distance. Soooo glad I went down! Christina, who works in the shop was so cool. She let me try on a variety of skates and equipment and was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable about everything skate related. I asked her a ton on questions and she clarified things i never even heard on youtube. I’ll be back for an upgrade on my outdoor skates!😁
Just stopped by for the first time today. I was there well over an hour asking them a bunch of questions and they were happy to answer all of them. Their expertise really showed so I trusted all their suggestions. Im really happy with my shopping experience with them. They were kind, helpful, and super knowledgeable. I will def go back for any future skating needs.
I have never skated before, and went in to Skaters Choice completely uneducated and looking to by a pair of roller skates. The customer service was impeccable - the women working were extremely kind and knowledgeable, and my friend and I were fitted with two perfect pairs of skates.
What an amazing shop! They had everything I needed and a bunch more I want! Tim behind the counter really knows his stuff and helped me pick out some great gear. Cant wait to go spend more money at this place!
The very best skate shop! Very knowledgeable and friendly, fantastic selection, and you know exactly what you are getting. Ive been a happy, repeat customer for over 30 years!
Amber was so helpful! Love my new wheels!
I stopped in May 27th in search of some better wheels for my sure grip fame skates. Right now during covid it’s impossible to find skates or anything skate related. I walked in and spotted the new Jackson vistas and ended up buying a pair and also got the radar energy wheels and a few other small things. First of all, the building itself screams pure nostalgia. It felt so good to walk thru and “smell” my childhood! Even tho the place was empty with everything going on, it just made me feel good! Customer service was impeccable! She really let me take my time and look around and just be happy to be in public surrounded by so many dope skates! She also skates in the pineapple moxi Lollys so she’s already my bff 😂 I cant remember her name but she was so super helpful to me even while taking a million phone calls from people just like me on a hunt for skates! I can tell she’s very knowledgeable and so friendly! Thanks again, girl! The Jackson vistas are hella comfy!
Nice rink, friendly staff, overall nice environment!
Honestly I highly recommend this shop to any type of skater. Weather your new at skating or more expirence this shop has all the info and products you need. The representatives were so kind friendly and down to earth. They helped me with my skates and suggested some future skates for the style I wanted to learn. I love it
Dont bother shopping for roller skating gear online if youre anywhere near Tampa. Skaters Choice really has just about everything youd need for skating, including things you may never have thought of (a leather carrying case for my VNLAs?). The staff are experienced skaters who knew all the places in the area where I could try out my new outdoor wheels, and I spent a sublime afternoon rolling in the sunshine.
The gal was super friendly and help me out regarding some skates that I brought in
Love this place been there since I was just a child now my children go there great people and great atmosphere
Found exactly what I needed. Great selection and nice, helpful staff! Definitely where I will be going for all my skate purchases.
Love my skates
Its a bit pricey but they offer a good selection and the customer service is good. No returns offered.
Great service very knowledgeable and super friendly! I’ll definitely be back soon to upgrade the new skates!
Great service!
Wonderful shop, they are extremely helpful and know their stuff! I highly recommend!
All right at 5 stars because all the people there are so awesome and it is such a wonderful place to go and skate
Great service. Christine was awesome! Now Im set for success with my new atom pulse purple wheels.
Best choice I made in the skating range I reccomend this to everyone great prices, also great workers I hope you enjoy your visit😁😁
