Best atmosphere, owners & staff more then hospitable , welcoming. Whether it your first time or seasoned all levels are in for a memorable time. I brought my family and friends we are counting the days until they reopen.I went on my birthday 12/31Daniel was so helpful and just a great guy.Absolutely thankful for this place.If your in town do yourself and check it out.God bless

Awesome experience. Inline rentals are $3 extra. I recommend coming on a non-weekend night. Otherwise it’s a little crowded.

Probably the most fun you can have with your clothes on. Great for beginners like me, even though the rink can get a little crowded. The light up shoes are a great touch. My only recommendation would be to crank up the music, its not loud enough in there.

Saddly closed from Mo-Do. but looks impressive from the outside

Its fun for a few hours, but you quickly sense how small the venue is when the crowd picks up. Great vibe, but its a bit too crowded for my taste.

The floor is in terrible shape to skate on. The place is packed and people are constantly falling; I ended up falling over someone that fell in front of me - couldnt avoid them. Its a novel experience and if youre someone that enjoys a good story or adventure I say you should go here at least once.

I had fun for the first fifteen minutes or so, but as the rink was packed so full of people that it was impossible to move faster than a moderate walking pace, the novelty quickly wore off. The staff werent rude, but they werent friendly either. Overall, definitely not worth the $20 (cash only) for admission, inline skate rentals, and coat check.

Too small to enjoy skating. The vibe is cool and the place is nice. The staff isn’t super nice or anything but they are efficient. This place just isn’t worth the money. It’s also cash only$15/person or $18 for roller blades

Had a great experience at the Church of 8 Wheels during a Saturday lesson. We were the only students present (this is apparently not the norm) so we got lots of 1:1 coaching from the instructors, who were also both super patient with my 7 year old. Got back out on skates for the first time in years and had a lot of fun!

Never skated before. Probably some of the most fun you can have sober. Especially if you like disco music.

This is a pretty small roller rink, but its the only one in SF. The building is an old church which lends it a really weird but cool vibe. The music thats played is pretty much the same every time, but the mood is fun. The staff arent necessarily nice, but they are courteous and efficient. I like the lights there

Great if you are a pro and almost Olympics status. Otherwise fear for your life. You will either fall or come very very close to falling many times. Too many people squeezed into too small a circle. BUT the music is great. Everyones stuff strewn around on the old church benches on the periphery. I love the idea though.

Went here for a party, and it was not bad. Its an old school roller rink and I enjoyed myself. The only issue I had is that they overcharge for everything: skates, lockers, food, etc. Parking lot is small so good luck trying to get in/out during the weekend.

This place was awesome. I didnt know that places like this still existed. Great ambiance and helpful staff. It was a great experience, cant wait to bring others. So much frickin fun!!!

Roller disco is alive! This is so much more fun than you even expect

When I heard you can roller skate in a church I was like WHAT! Checked it out with a friend and was fun. Definitely something to do on a Saturday night!

We went there with girls to celebrate birthday. None of our party were skating for a while or at all. So it was really fun for us. But skates and floor are worn out, space is really small, the size of basketball court. Music was fun, most of the visitors were newbies like us. So everyone was friendly and it is nice place to spend your date night or girls night out. Parking is tough around, also be aware they accept only cash.

Came here with my sister on my second trip to San Francisco. A short walk from my sisters apartment. Very quick and easy to pay for and rent skates. Skates were in great condition and I was able to start skating within minutes of getting there. The floor is a little small for how many people were there, but there isnt anything they can do about it. Music was great and there was even a time when the skating stopped and everyone did the cupid shuffle on skates. Now that was an experience! Direction changed a few times to make sure one leg didnt get too tired. Free water was also available to get a quick drink. Highly recommend this place to anyone wanting to have some fun on a late night.

Must do. Awesome experience and something different then Pier 39 or Fishermans wharf;)

Love this place. All ages mix here beautifully. Very cheap and tons of fun.

We got there late and they offered a discount, which was very nice. They were also very patient as we sorted out skate sizes.The church setting is beautiful and the attitude is quite respectful.

Fun venue with great music and festive lights, but no wall/rail to assist beginners or provide separation of the rink from the rest of the room. It was very crowded and people kept skating at high speeds outside the designated rink area and into the people resting on the perimeter. $10 entrance fee, $5 skate rental, and extra $3 for blade rentals. They also sell socks for $2.

Great and groovy place to skate with friends. The earlier you come the better it is for skating, but at one point I felt the crowd was too big for a pleasant skate.

It was wonderful place with good price and much joyful I loved this place #church 8 wheels a

I love this place! Its such a fun atmosphere becasue everyone gets really into it with outfits and vibe.

VERY CUTEVERY FUNI DIDNT FALL SO I AM HAPPYWOOOO

Very fun place I had a great time here with my group of friends. We came here on a Friday afternoon not too crowded but night time gets the busiest.

A fun thing to do with your friends

Unique and amazing. Small space but skate at your own rate and have a great time!

We had really fun in this place !

Such an amazing gem in San Francisco! Hard to find parking, but worth the walk. Would definitely be coming here again. Great dj keeping the vibe up and great people that assist the skaters even if youre new to the game.

This place is amazing! Its actually in a converted church. For those old enough to remember roller skating rinks this brings back the nostalgia of those times. The DJ spins great tunes from the days of roller skating. The check in process was a bit tedious but a small hiccup in a great night. There were people of all ages. A great activity to do on a Friday or Saturday night.

Great place to have fun

Its a church which gets converted to a rollar skating destination with a disco theme lighting. You get to see a variety of people with constumes skating perfectly. Everyday, the music theme changes.

This is a fun unique place to go with friends but there are a couple huge drawbacks :- they are cash only- they dont allow alcohol- you cant bring outside food or drinks- bad skatersI am an okay skater but have you ever skated next to someone that really cant. When they go down- they are taking anyone next to them down with them. :/

My favorite place on a Friday night with a nice vibe and good music. I usually bring friends who visit SF as well, and they love it. Make sure you don’t bring super valuable things, as there are no lockers though.

If youre beginning to intermediate, dont bother. There was this chick with a furry beanie and light whip shoulder checking people and whipping them. I thought it would be on some PLUR type of vibe. Left after 15 minutes. But hey, if you can skate this is the party for you!

The perfect place to loosen up after a long week, get your funk on, and dig the scene.

Had an awesome experience; my first time doing a roller disco and skating on quads. They also have inline skates available. They process the line fairly quickly. They end early at 11; would be nice if they kept it open longer.

I just got back into roller skating after a 30 year hiatus. I was eager to try the rink! And I wasn’t disappointed! I went early on a Friday evening, arriving not long after they opened. The crowd was thin at first but soon picked up. By the time I left, a couple hours later, the place was jamming! Great tunes by a live DJ, terrific lighting, good floors for skating, and a nice friendly crowd. No children allowed in the evening (a huge relief) so I was surrounded by adults of all ages and all skill levels. Beginners are welcome and encouraged! Great date spot!

So much fun! I loved looking at all the people skating, some are really bad (like I) and its funny and some are extremely talented and impressive.

Pretty interesting concept and a very fun place

I had an itch to go rollerskating for awhile and this place definitely satisfied that.Though, its small and isnt really enjoyable when it gets really crowded. The DJ was mediocre; wish she was more interactive.Bring your own water - they sell overpriced small bottles.

The owner is super nice, and so are the rental skates however there needs to be a massive plague sweeping the streets of SF before I ever frequent this establishment again. Way too many people who don’t understand the concept of: slow skaters move inside, fast go outside.

I was looking forward to this joint. Showed up and it was an immediate buzz kill by the rude staff. The acoustics of the spot did not help the music selection. The dj wasn’t even in his booth and it just seemed like his was playing from a crappy pandora station. Lastly the place is so so small and is actually pretty dangerous. The best part about was the actual people that were there. Fun and eccentric crowd.

Quite small but fun.

What a gem in this city! Founded 5 years ago by die hard skaters from Golden Gate Park this is a black-owned business and a family business. Son spins the music, mom runs the front of house, and dad is the founder and an awesome dude!

The Church Of 8 Wheels is a magical place to worship the love of roller skating. All are welcomed at the church.

The most magical place on earth! Im never more happy than I am while rolling around the church, dodging fallen skaters, grooving to sweet tunes, feeling free! Wish I could spend every day here

Music. Dance. No talking.

Fun place to try out but the guy working there on Saturdays is a complete a**hole. He skates around the rink yelling at everyone. Came for a friends birthday and you pay a cover charge just to enter. The rink is small with not a lot of room to skate or sit down. I wouldnt come back, mostly because of how rude the staff was to everyone.

Awesome spot. Great people.

I had a blast skating here! I would recommend it for date night! The only problems I had was that there was no food or drinks at this location which kept me from staying longer once I got hungry and it got a bit crowded! Other then that it was a blast!

This place is small but soooooo much fun even when it’s packed to the brim. Better than any other roller rink I’ve ever been to. Also very reasonable price.

Amazing for anyone who wants to see most millennials fail badly while those who grew up in the 70s-90s grew up on skates school them.

Fun spot to hangout on a Saturday night! The crowd was a mix of novice and skilled skaters - I didnt feel out of place even though I havent skated since I was 10.

Super fun time and so cheap! Only cost 15 bucks to get in and to rent skates.Also, turns out roller skating is way harder than it looks. I was pretty tired after around 45 minutes but would definitely go back.

I came here for a birthday party of one of my friends. You can rent out a corner of the room if you are with a party. The music is all throwback 80s and 90s. You cant bring any drinks in the venue and bottled water can be purchased for a buck. I think this place would be a good date place with your couple :)

What can I say! This place is amazing. A church converted into a funky roller rink that is cheap and has awesome skaters. Floors are very imperfect but it has no effect on the fun!

Scavenge the thrift stores to find your best roller girl or guy outfit and join the faithful in their sequins and hotpants Friday and Saturday nights for the most fun you can have in the city on 8 wheels. While the crowd is a mix of everything from barely-balancing first-time skaters to real life pros (theres some serious talent whirling and twirling around), everyone has giant smiles on their faces and its the most respectful crowd this side of Canada. There are separate all ages and adult sessions so check the website for times. If you cant find your roller skates in the attic, there are plenty available to rent. Only water is available for purchase so fill up on food and liquids of your choice before you go shake your groove thing!

Previously a church, now its a cool skating rink. Interior still has stained glass windows and beautiful high cathedral painted ceilings. Very fun place.

Take some roller skating classes before you do this. I thought it was easy, pretty effin hard!

Small rink; would get 5 stars if it were larger.

Chaotically funky; fun jams but terrible rink management. Usually slower skaters are directed to the outside of the rink and faster skaters on the inside, not the case here. Collisions abound. Rentals hurt like crazy.

This is a great place to experience roller skating from the 70s, 80s & 90s. Fun environment, friendly staff and helpful people everywhere. My friend never roller skated and was given a few pointers from a experienced skater. Helped him roll around with greater ease. Cant wait to go again.

Not a place for the serious skater but fun for just going for something to do

This place felt magical. Filled with love and a fun time

This place is amazing. The interior is still church, all the pews are against the walls. floor is a little rough, but still fun.

I go here for roller skating and also for ecstatic dance. It is somewhat pricey, but its worth it. Its a beautiful experience every time I go.

Was a interesting place. Its an old church turned Into a roller skating spot. The floors are uneven and the skates werent in good shape.. the first pair I had was broken.. and the staff that worked was somewhat rude.. but I would try it again. Maybe it was just the day. But if your looking for something different.. try it..

Great atmosphere. Particularly enjoy Sunday ecstatic dances.

Really fun place to skate!

Soooo fun!! Neat spot. Awesome owner.

Cash only. The website said basically 15.00 per person but we paid 10. I was relieved. Finding fun things for more than one child to do can be expensive in this city

I went to this former-church building for the San Francisco Ecstatic dance and loved the high, ornate ceilings; the multicolored sunlight streaming thru the painted glass windows. Parking? Forgettaboutit.

We went to the Church of 8 wheels for my birthday and it was a lot of fun! Decor is nice, music cool, people are smiley and having fun. If youre a beginner, someone will definitely come to you and give you advice!*Tip*: Its cash only so get 20$ before showing up

Super fun afternoon with the kids.

Best night ever! We loved it, great vibe! The Coat Check Goddesses are awesome. Seriously, you need to go.

Beautiful interior. Good, classic, feel-good music. Lots of beautiful, colorful people. Look around at everyone’s faces: so many people smiling and laughing. A San Francisco gem.

What can I say. I LOVE THIS PLACE. The Only indoor skating in SF. Can get crowded later in the evening. Kid session on Sat daytime and lessons for all levels of skaters. Truly magical to see the religious art being lit by disco lights. Get there early in the summer to see the stained glass windows lit by sunlight while you skate. One of the few remaining places that continues the expressive spirit of SF.

Great experience! Went here on a Tuesday for a friends birthday and we had a blast. This old church was turned into a roller skate disco, with very cool 80s music and light effects.Totally recommendable for a nice time with friends!

Fun place for skating with friends. Small rink so dont expect to get much space to skate fast or tricks.

Always such a fun time here, good music too

Be prepared to have FUN, maybe trip a few times, have people trip on you, and smile the entire time. Favorite part was the hippie vibes from the outfits.

This place is always so much fun. Lots of people come in costume, and youll see all skill levels out there. Every time I go, I end up staying for hours and leaving exhausted from all the skating and dancing. Go with friends, go for a unique date, just go.

Fun place for a unique date night! Not too expensive to rent skates (though if you have your own, all the better, since rental skates don’t fit that well)Enjoyed the music on a Friday night, though it got very crowded by 9p - probably better experience if you’re there earlier

Great space and the music was bumping. Such a fan!Caveat is that its not the best place for beginners since there arent low walls or handrails to steady yourself, so prepare for some tumbles. It was my first time, and I was fine, albeit sore for a week on my wrists.$10 for admission and another $5 for rentals.Tip: Come early to avoid the crowds and to have some room around the edges to rest your limbs.

We had a great time here. Only thing that might be better is if they had more roller blades. They ran out of my size so I was stuck with the old school skates which I felt a bit awkward on but that wasnt enough to ruin the experience completely. There were lots of big groups of people and everyone seemed to be having a great time. Would be nice if they had alcohol or allowed it in but I can see why they might think thats a bad idea.

Beautiful church ceiling. Boogie music. Skates. Costumes. The bouncer guy who looks like he lives in the Matrix. All culminate into the perfect Friday nights!

This is great fun for everyone of all ages! I went there for a prince tribute and although its been 10+ year since I skated I loved it! Cool spot! Inexpensive fun!

Rollerskate disco? Middle of town? In an old church? This us soo San Francisco. We liked to do our circles. This was really fun. Could not skate before but we were able to rent a pair of old school shoes (not the inline skates...). Was quite easy. If you are a beginner. Go early. The later, the more ppl and the harder it gets to navigate. Once you got how it works, its quite fun. Especially because many dress up. Wonder how this looks on Halloween.

Super awesome! Loved every second in this old school church with a roller girl vibe. Definitely come here!!!!

Great time fun... It made me feel like a kid again.

Rollerskating in an old church is pretty awesome. Also, great music, inexpensive and a fun crowd. Note, no alcohol is served so best to plan to imbibe elsewhere before or after hopping on the rink.

Gorgeous church makes a great setting for roller skating. Disco music is great and blasting. Only negatives are it can get a little crowded and you may have to wait in line outside.

Friendly staff and great vibes! Staff will help you if youre struggling to skate.

The skates were falling apart. It was super crowded. They need more days open to accommodate the crowd. So hard to have fun when you are worried about falling all over other people.

Its just an amazing awesome place for ppl to hang out nd have a great time .no matter who u are. U are always welcome @ the church of 8 wheels

A great roller rink that really is a blast from the past. A fun time to go with friends and dress up in your best 70s outfit.

Pretty cool place. An old church turned into a roller skate rink. We went there on Friday they have disco night on Fridays and it was awesome. It was first time we used the 4 wheels rollers but people there were nice to beginners and stopped to help people who fell down.Theyre cash only but theres an ATM at a liquor store on the opposite Street. $10 dollars fees and $5 for roller skates. $2 per piece coat or shoes check.
