What a great experience to be able to skate there. Our friends took us for an event and we got to skate, meet Chris Chelios and get a picture with him, played shoot the puck and meet Tommyhawk. Beautiful rink and delicious drinks. :) So much fun!!

Nice facility, good ice, friendly efficient staff and great coaches. What else do you need? Oh!-free parking, theres that too!

Beautiful facility for the players and the public! Two rinks, well manicured, concessions, relatively new stock of rental skates, good concessions, and the whole place is very clean. I had the great fortune to tour the Blackhawks locker room, which is stellar. Great to see that they have a first class facility for all the time and effort they put in. And love to walk through the locker room to see Toews, Kane, Crawford, Keith, and Shaws spots in there. Love watching these guys over the years. This was a great day for me.

Remember during covid there are no locker rooms available for stick and puck. There are chairs or could use the restroom

Very nice facility - the staff is very friendly and helpful - #goblackhawks

Interesting setup. Felt a bit like a tourist replica of facilities though.

Great place to watch a hockey game with the family. Great crowd, great facility, great fans, friendly, clean and fun.Highly recommend to anyone. Don’t hesitate to buy your tickets, lots of fun.

Great practice facility for the Blackhawks. Had a great time. Check it out.

Toured the facility - locker rooms, gym, practice ice, kitchen, trophy wall! Great experience!

The ice is great as well as the staff. A few places that Ive been to dont really help you when youre on the ice so I truly appreciate the guy that works there for trying to teach my son how to get up after he fell a few times. Excellent customer service from start to finish.

I may be a little bias because I was lucky enough to guest Coach the professional division for the Chicago Professional Hockey League but the service at the arena was top notch. Andrea the GM helped me get my family friends set for an incredible viewing experience. I also was in locker rooms and used parking at the facility, both which were managed by professionals who made my night all the better.Good music during games, announcing was on par, and people packed into the first week of the league. Next time I will make sure to try to the food! Thanks MB Arena and Hawks for a classy experience as the guest coach.

Outstanding, took my class there for s class. The staff was great. They had patience while the kids were on the ice.

This ice arena is very good. The ice is fast and is not slow feeling. The tournament here is very good. Security is also very quick and easy. Fun

Best ice in town. Bar on site. Dunkin on site. Sometimes concessions are open. They are constantly running great events here. DO NOT get your skates sharpened here.

We were there for a filed trip and they were helpful and did all they could to teach us to skate

Ice is great. Parking is typically very accessible which isnt always the case for rinks in Chicago. Locker Rooms for league play is a bit on the small side but the showers and facilities are clean and kept up.

My 6 y/o daughter has been taking skating lessons here for about 10 months and she *loves* it. I have been impressed with the level of proficiency and caring shown by her teachers who have gently encouraged her to progress at her own pace.

Excellent ice. Large locker rooms. Metal detector and bag checkers are annoying. Parking lot is convenient

We had an iceskating party there and HAD A BLAST!!! Lots of food, drink, space to play! Definitely going again!!

Went to a CPHL game. It was soooo much fun. Great Blackhawks names having fun on the ice. Parking is convenient and free. Highly recommend for any hockey family. An affordable way to see great players.

Watched 2020 sled hockey tournament and was totally blown away by pace and toughness of athletes playing. TRUE TOUGH BAD A$$ HOCKEY

Great place to take your children to learn how to ice skate. Very family oriented and the staff is very helpful and awesome.

Went to a great Blackhawks event. The facility is amazing!

Beautiful arena, the ice was clean an sharp and the bar and food area is super for before and after a game#:

Great place for a hockey tournament. Get there early limited parking.

Public Skating-Nice and Clean. Friendly staff. Free customer parking. Plus helpful and friendly rink supervisor in the yellow jacket. Helped me off my feet in a hard fall and suggested I take some ice and a break before coming back to skate. I wish the rink was a bit smoother or leveled at 5:30pm, but I guess it must have been used before then as well.

How cool is this place!!! The rink is even adapted to where sled hockey players can get on/off the bench. We don’t HAVE to sit on the ice if we don’t wanna! There’s plexiglass in place so we can see. Locker rooms are really nice and clean too. Love this facility!

Great place to watch some hockey in the off season. Note: it is still an ice rink even if it is 90 degrees outside so dress accordingly.

Nice drinks, well kept building & lot. Numerous concession options. Go Hawks!

We went for public skate and had a great time!

Neat place. Lots of fun

Very nice up to take arena I love the fact that you can stand beside the glass and watch the Blackhawks practice and it’s completely free I suggest going onto the Blackhawks website and finding out there practice schedule it’s a grate time

What a great new facility! The ice here is fantastic and there are concessions and a bar. I will definitely be coming back in the future.

Super clean, great food, and free parking. Also inside the ice rink it was warm! So you werent freezing while watching the games!

Very good place to skating is very fun experience and the personal very friendly.

No matter your ice skating level this is a great place to come! The staff here is always nice and helpful!

Great ice! Stick and puck was a blast

What a great, new facility! Clean, helpful staff, plenty of parking, loads of locker rooms... AND WE CAN WATCH THE HAWKS PRACTICE

What a fabulous facility. Used all year

I am a long time hockey player and skated at my fair share dumpy rinks and this is not one of them. This rink is brand new. The arena is clean and has a good layout. The parking lot is smaller than expected but an overflow lot does exist. The locker rooms are clean as well. (Watch out for the utility covers on the floor though if youre wearing skates). This is my preferred rink in the city of Chicago.

What an amazing place for skating. The rink is state of the art, parking for everyone. Great food and a Dunkin Donuts inside.

The arena itself is well kept. However, its location is in a very bad part of town, the concessions food is on the low end of quality, staff is on the low end of adequate customer service, and the public skating is a nightmare due to no seating around the rink, many walkers going every which way on the ice, and a very small entrance/exit from the rink which gets easily congested. Stay away, stay very far away from this facility if you are strictly looking for public skating. Im sure its a great place for league play, etc. However, we just wanted to have a little fun during our vacation, and this was definitely was a fail... BIG TIME!

First time ever hear and the people are so very nice and polite.

Cool place to play hockey. Be prepared for security to search your equipment bag and go through a metal detector. Good concessions, bar and Dunkin donuts.

Freeee parkiiiing! OMG!!! My son and I are both taking ice hockey lessons here. We both love it! The facility is awesome and very clean. The Dunkin inside provides coffee for a must-coffee-all-day person like me. The staff are very friendly. Watching the ice get clean is also intresting for kids. Skate rentals/sharpening are also available. Very friendly staff by the way

Great family place and group classes for kids.

Watched Blackhawk training campGreat place with good accessibility.

It was our first time on the ice at the arena and it was a great experience in every way, the staff are very welcoming and friendly and the space is beautiful!We will definitely be back!

Nice facility. Parking was no problem

Great facility, nice ice, and cold beer

Pretty special place to play hockey.

Great place to go for a field trip!!

Fun experience for the entire family. Great concessions & bar.

Nice facility for hockey, overflow parking is in Malcom X parking garage across the street.

Nice, clean facility with security and metal detector at the door. Dunkin Donuts inside.

Nice new facility, almost as nice as LCA/Belfor #pizzapizza

Very upscale! Very clean and beautiful. Team facility tour was great.

Very friendly staff. Had a great experience with my children on the ice. Will definitely be going back soon

Cool place. Lots of food to eat inside. Plenty of seating. Excellent views. Also nice area for a walk.

We enjoy ourselves at the ice rank.

The best ice complex in Chicago! Two full size rinks, full kitchen concessions, bar and my favorite, a dunkin donuts! A full weight room with cardio for the athletes and I havent even seen all the amenities. Most importantly for a hockey rink, it smells great! Just an all-around cutting edge sports facility.

Big parking lot, and great place.

Need better service and not lie about how many people are attending rat hockey. told 5 people were in the locker room only 1 person was in there what a joke.

Rink is starting to show its age. Already on its second name.

Great experience sponsored by blackhawks hope sled hockey can come to rockford too.

The kids that were ice skating were having fun. I went you use the ATM to pay for a transcript MXC is across the street and dont have a ATM

My friends and I came to this community ice arena and found it not open to the community Saturday afternoon when it was supposed to be open for a public skate. MB was holding a private event, which was not posted on their website and the public skate was cancelled. Im a long time Hawks fan and glad the Blackhawks have a nice training facility, but I take offense to them calling this a community rink if they are going to use it for private events and exclude the local citizens who want to enjoy skating. Either offer more open skatings for the public, or take community off your name. Very disappointed Hawks fan.

Clean, secure and the staff is professional. Great place for the kids to ice skate. Concession stands for food and beverages.

Great addition to the hockey community! We are very lucky to have such a facility in Chicago! Thank you Blackhawks and all involved! Our kids will definitely benefit!

Great staff! Very Helpful Catina Jones at concession stand

Great sheet of ice. Looking forward to the Adult league, would like to see some stick and puck slots but its still early. They have the resources to make this a great facility!

New Blackhawks.practice facility who were there when I was. You can watch them practice but their locker room is behind the far bench so they dont come thru the public areas. When they are there, about 75% of the parking lot is closed off for them. Prepare for street parking.Nice facility. Everyone gets screened coming in.Small Dunkin. Donuts just to the right inside the door with a fancy bar just past that. On the left behind the screening area is a small concession area. Reasonable prices with the 4 steak sliders at $11 on the high end.

The MB Ice Arena was my worst public ice skating experience so far, and by far! The arena is in a very inconveniently located and questionable part of town. The facility itself looks very professional and welcoming at first. However, on second glance you notice immediately that this is clearly focused towards professional usage and that not targeted for the general public, which you would expect from a place that claims to be a community rink. The food selection is big, but the quality is poor. Here they should rather focus on quality than quantity. The worst part, however, was the actual experience on the ice rink. First of all, the entrance to the ice was limited to a tiny tiny single door, which caused an ongoing congestion around it. Second, the fact that this fancy looking place was lacking a designated area where you could change to your skates, and lock your belongings is beyond belief. And even if it had such amenities, there are poorly signposted. Third, despite having benches by the ice to sit on, it is strictly prohibited to do so (I didnt see that in any rules but okay). Lastly, but most severely, the staff that was present was very rude, and anything but professionally. This is not how you treat your customers! I would advise anyone who is just looking for a convenient place to practice iceskating during public hours from going here. Go to Ridgeland Common Ice Arena, which is only slightly west from here and you will have a better time, I guarantee you!

This is the best place to play a pick-up game in all of chicago, bar none. Their schedule is readily available online and, even though its a bit pricey, its worth the time you get on the ice.The ice is always clean, the staff is awesome, they sell the essentials you tend to always forget (extra laces, tape, etc.), and who could beat getting to play on the Chicago Blackhawks practice ice. My favorite place to skate in all of Chicago.

Excellent to ice skate.

Don’t just imagine what would happen if the NHL owner with best record in the salary cap built the ultimate community hockey facility, experience it for yourself!

WE LOVE THIS PLACE. GREAT OUTING FOR FAMILIES

They offer classes for the kids to learn to skate.

Skate here for mens league. Like the rink for the most part. The security is ridiculous before every game, though.Pros: Great ice, extremely well kept, clean/new locker rooms, friendly staff, lots of TVs to hang by the bar after the game, refs actually show upCons: Freakin TSA screening every time Im going to skate in a mens league game, expensive beers, no music during pregame warm-ups/play stoppages

Such a great facility! The staff is great, it’s clean, and really interactive with the Blackhawks. Public skating is also great for families. Would recommend to anyone!

Are you kidding me??? Playing on the same ice the Blackhawks practice on? Hell yeah Im in! Seriously, great staff and facilities. Its awesome!

Beautiful rink, just be prepared for a full security check at the door.

Great time before Hawks game.

Great place to ice skate. Free parking is available too.

Excellent arena. If youre lucky youll see a Blackhawk practicing!

Awesome place to skate.

So cool! Great facility.

Just an awesome facility.

Such a cool environment, great rinks to take the family to

Best ice rink in Illinois, phenomenal facility I love going there to ref and play

One of the nicest facilities around. Great for Beer Leaguers!

We went skating here and we loved it. We plan on attending again.

Nice place for hockey

New practice facility of the Chicago Blackhawks. Nicest in the NHL but close to public...

Great place, the staff really care and are a breath of fresh air to the local city rinks.

One of the best. But fighting the traffic in and out of town stinks.

Nice place for hockey

Best ice Ive ever skate on.

Leslie and Kathleen are the bestest bartenders evvvver!!

Parking is atrocious! Prices are expensive and practically the same as going to the United Center. The sound system is brutal in one rink. The TVs in the lobby are too high to watch without neck strain. The sightlines are somewhat distorted for to glass walls to contain the fans. The dark black netting is distracting while watching a game. Hopefully the facility is good for the players cause it definitely didnt have the fans in mind.
