Amazing place! Clean, helpful staff, they take song requests and if you aren’t into skating? Well they have an arcade and awesome food while everything is at a good price. Going this weekend! Would choose over any other place

Actually terrible, they don’t follow COVID restrictions at all. Never felt more unsafe, left after walking in. Barely anyone was wearing masks and no social distancing and there’s was at least 200 people. The lady at the desk allowed those not coming in with masks to enter. She was rude and unprofessional. When asked about how relaxed they are with restrictions she just responded “yeah”. I’ve never been more disgusted with an establishment’s policies over the pandemic.

Arrived on a Sunday with a same-day purchased online coupon company coupon for 4 rounds of Mini Golf with no restrictions as to dates or times for use. Arrived on site to a completely empty course save for one family that had just finished up.Upon arrival at the starters hut we were notified that they were not accepting any online coupon company coupons, and the price would be $5 per round. My first thought was that this seemed pretty close to a bait and switch moment, but Ill leave that up to you to decide should you attempt to visit with a prepaid coupon. I asked why they were currently selling Mini Golf coupons online if they were not accepting them and did not receive an answer.Left without further complaint, arranged to refund the online coupon and will not return in the future. Plenty of other Mini Golf courses in the area.

A horde of children, some on roller skates, all of them screaming. Most not following instructions, running amok, causing general chaos.That said, the employees do their best. Their courteous and kind, attentive and do a good job given the enviroment. The roller skating is fun, the putt putt course is awesome and the laser tag isnt half bad. Priced are great, especially on the 2 dollar days.Just do the employees and others a favor and keep your child, if it happens to act like a rabid hyena, under control.

This place is a total ripoff.they nickel and dime you on attractions. They charge parents for just overseeing the kids to make sure they are safe. I have a good income...just wondering how working family could afford taking two kids to this place.

Took my son here for a day on a Groupon. He had fun, but didnt ask to go back so i take it it was just ok for him. They had a skate party after this that he went to and loved! I paid $20 and we dropped him up for about 4 hours or so & they had organized things set up for them to do all night, and they included food. It was his first time getting to do something like this and he loved it, but I havent seen them do it to often and hed love to go to that again.

So much fun. They have so many options. Mini golf. Ropes climbing course. Laser tag. Skating. And bumper cars (though i dont recommend paying extra for the bumper cars). Tons of fun at a good price.

Review №45

My rink for practice was closed so I came here. My skates are made to work on any floor and they have but this floor was absolutely terrible. Kids were running around with walkers on the rink with no skates, spraining/breaking a teenagers wrist, the employees didnt do ANYTHING. Go to Youngstown Skate.

Review №46

I was so angry when I went here. My son had a birthday party and won a bunch of free this or that coupons. They would honor none of them because it was a discount pizza day. This was never mentioned when I paid for the party, nor was it printed on the coupons. Really left a sour taste in my mouth. It could also use a little fixing up.

Review №49

I brought my kids here twice and was appalled. Prices are high and rental skates are a bit shoddy. Nice skate floor but there never seems to be any supervision on the skate floor and safety is obviously not a priority here. If you live northeast of Austintown, you are better off going to Olympic Fun Center in Hermitage PA. I will never go back to this place.In response to the owners reply to this review, I add this: A DJ in a booth is not proper floor supervision. This is not how I feel but a matter of fact. Another reviewer on here even describes a time where the booth DJ wasnt paying attention or enforcing rules when children were skating backwards and caused accidents. I have visited twice and saw this exact issue in both cases so these are not isolated incidents. Also seems to be a pattern among negative reviews for complaints of rude staff and being understaffed. I can personally confirm that I had the same experience both times. I have also never heard of a rink that charges the adults to bring their kids in. Out of over 100 reviews throughout the area, this place has drawn the worst review I have ever given. When I describe the skates as shoddy, it is due to the cheap type of skate they choose to rent. The trucks are integrated and made of the same plastic as the boot. Therefore the trucks cannot be replaced without replacing the whole skate. That said, the rental skates all have extremely loose trucks that beg to cause an ankle injury. Plus, the second time I went, the skates I rented had two wheels with cracked bearings. I have edited this review due to the owners response to my review. Rather than show accountability, the owner has said he/she is sorry I feel that way. My review is based on more than one visit and rooted in fact. The owners comment makes my point. A DJ in a booth is not suitable floor supervision and skates with floppy integrated trucks cannot be repaired, only replaced. Cheap rental skates always cost more in the long run. The fact that ownership has been told whats wrong and has chosen to double down rather than fix the issues speaks volumes. For the safety of your children, avoid this place.

Skating is best deal. Staff are aloof mostly but a few a friendly. Had many issues w teens & tweens dumped off that bully other kids. Lazer tag is another best deal. Bumper cars go all too quick but are a blast! In the 1 pic featured is Marcus Pickett (L) who tragically died in a car accident as well as his father in March. RIP child

Review №54

Had my daughters 7th bday there yesterday. And i have to he honest it was very rushed, and unorganized. They are supposed to take care of everything but they dont. They never did the birthday box, the cake was really rushed, i had remind them of the icecream i brought, she cut the cake wrong. But theu only had one party worker for 3 parties, so it was unfair to us and the employee! And on top of that they had 5 grown men walking through every area taking pictures of the kids. They claimed it was a legit band, taking lightning photos but that doesnt explain them taking pictures of the kids. They should have had these men come in before they opened. It was creepy and uncalled for. My husband, myself and alot of parents felt the same way. The staff just brushed it off. Very unprofessional. As for the men only taking pictures of the lighing is false. They took took pictures of my group of kids in the laser tag area, on the skate floor and also they took several close ups of webcity, while a kids were playing! Again as a parent it was a scary and unnecessary burden! Please give me the name of the band so i can do my own research.

I came here with some friends. It was extremely over priced for my mother. The place is filthy, but probably because there are many younger kids running around. My friend is 12 and I’m 14, she was allowed to go into the play area, but I wasn’t. My mother couldn’t go in the play area with my younger sister. The food is good though.

Love everything about this place, except the arcade which has almost these gambling games for kids which are all about luck. If youre lucky you get many tickets if not you get only a few. I prefer the games that are about skill.

Review №58

Skate Zone is fun for kids. They have a lot more room inside, which to me makes it better than Chuck E. Cheese. The downside is most if the arcade games were broken, and definitely didnt have a whole lot of them either. The prices are really reasonable. My sister and I spent less than $100 for 4 kids and 2 adults. If youre on a budget this is the place to go.

They had nice lights over the skating part but they say that if you have more then 3 people and all 3 of you want a Walker then you have to pay $15 and I thought that it was stupid. Then they dont even have water fountains and I want going to pay for water. But it was fun roller skating that is the only thing that I would say that was good also when you sit down at a table by were you skate it smells like state bleach and it was still wet that is disgusting. That is what Im going to say about my experience there.

Review №65

The staff was not overly helpful or over-the-top friendly. The entrance and exit are not clearly marked from the outside. We found a gate but it had an “Employee Only sign on it. We spotted an employee and asked if there was an entrance for customers on the side of the building where we were but were told, “No. There is only one entrance and it is on the other side.” So, we walked our four grandkids 3/4’s of the circumference of the building rather than move from our parking space in the shade.The cashier was pleasant, outgoing and helpful. We only did the miniature golf and did not take advantage of any of the other activities or the snack bar. The condition of the course and equipment was decent. There were several large groups but things moved at a decent pace.Trying to leave lacked any decent signs, too. We finally asked yet another not-so-friendly employee how to leave (a turnstile prevents exiting the same way you enter). Overall, it was a rewarding experience and worth the cost (with a discount from Groupon). With all the other activities offered, I am sure a family or group could easily spend the day there.

Had a horrible experience at Skate Zone. The skate floor is small because of the laser tag they have.I went to the snack area and the manager kinda helped me. I ordered a pretzel which she salted and stuck in the microwave, after that she just left and another employee realized the microwave was on and got my pretzel. The so called salted pretzel had maybe 1/4 of the actual thing with salt on it.As we were skating the same manager came over the loud speaker, as all the employees do when an order is ready so every song is interrupted by something, she started yelling in a snarky demanding manner that there were cars in the lot that had to move immediately or be towed as someone was trying to leave and could not. There was no polite ask and then get more stern just yelling and threats of being towed.The loud speaker is just that, LOUD. It physically hurts your ears while skating on the rink especially when managements snarkiness is screaming into the microphone.On to the skate guard and safety while on the rink. The skate guard sat in the booth almost the entire time and said nothing to anyone. I watched a group of people completely ignore the rules and skate the wrong direction with their children and run into other patrons amd make them fall and leave the rink because they were hurt, guard didnt see it because he was too tied up with his phone in the booth. During special skate songs when there were to be direction changes or stop or slow he did nothing so it was basically an all skate with a crappy song, oh wait he was doing something on his phone.In conclusion will not be back.

Review №94

Grandkids enjoyed the skating. My 10year old grandson had a horrible experience with the concession stand they refuse to serve him even after standing patience in line before they was too close and when they stop talking to another employee for 35mins she told him they was close and it wasnt closing time they had 10mins before. Then she lied to the manger and she refuse to even look at the tape or even try to straighten it out. All he wanted was a slice of pizza. Even after my son and wife had spent all that money there for his and his brother birthday. Its not like we could come back in few days to make it right. We live out of town. Even a 10year old says the skating was fun but the food area was horrible and manger as well.
