Dover Skating Center - 5 star for toddler skate! - Skating Rinks Near Me - Dover, Delaware

Dover staple. Highly recommend checking it out and learning to skate! The prices have gone up quite a bit in recent years, but it makes sense with inflation and food costs. The biggest issue are the rental skates. They used to have high quality sure-grip rentals, which have now been replaced with lower quality rentals. Despite the great team repairing skates there are often small issues with each pair. I highly recommend buying a personal pair of skates from SC though. Prices are the same as online and their selection is unmatched in Delaware. This rink is further out of the way for me, but I have preferred coming here to Christiana in the past few years. The rules here are less strict and balance the ability to have fun with keeping everyone safe (better than Christiana which is more restrictive). read more

beyond the word horrible staff. They took my son into a room and locked the door behind them refusing to let my boyfriend or I in. When they returned they told my son he needed to leave. I asked what was going on to be told BY THE STAFF that it was none of my business. after proceeding to tell them anything regarding a minor is absolutely his mothers business they told me to ask him then. I asked for their names and they refused and told me they dont have to tell me anything. I left with my boyfriend and all 4 kids I came with and received no refund or apology from staff. Over priced business with uneducated staff. Do better Delaware. Wish anyone would open another skating rink and put this dump out of business! read more

Nice, clean, and friendly center. I would recommend my friends and family. It is a great place to practice my skating skills

This place is pretty cool! The staff members are enthusiastic and helpful. They skate around and show others how to skate backwards or pick up small children that have fallen. The prices are decent, other than the almost 4% fee for debit and credit cards. The have a place to eat which has mediocre food, but it isn't bad. Overall, it's just a cool place for adults and kids. Would recommend. read more

the atmosphere of it was so fun! the staff was so friendly and they have so many fun events coming up will definitely come back

Great times @ this skating rink with my family we all sipped on slurpies & all of us had blue tongues & we eat French fries and fried dough powder was Everywhere & we skated. It was Halloween time so just about everyone was dressed up so it was nice to see all the costumes. They have lockers for a quarter to put your personal belongings. Overall fun times... definitely a place to visit and enjoy if your in the area. read more

lent me just say, if I go here again a Saturday night and all that the dj is playing is sad songs and country I'm going to snap on the dj. people want to vibe and jam out to skating music not country and sad songs. that's what killed business for the one in Eden Maryland. Make skating fun again. felt like it was being done on purpose to piss people off. dj im straight ignored the complaints and the fact no one seemed happy. read more

They play the same old music, some which isn't for skating. Today, the 17th of June 2023, they don't having running water si that means you can't flush the toilets or even wash your hands!! read more

Yesterday I took a trip to this facility. They opened back up at 7pm and the line was pretty long which is expected on the weekend. Finally got in the building and just reading up on the rules to make sure we have proper etiquette. Get up to the window to pay it was $13 admission and $5 for rental I had my own skates but my husband got rentals. They have quite a lot of seating but it was quite packed but we were able to find a booth so we can put our skates on and get on the floor. The music was so good and while on the floor the staff is so attentive like a fell and they ran up to me and tried to help but i got up on my own lol. The food was okay I ended up getting pizza and my stomach started to hurt after I ate but other than this is a great place to go! Will be back to visit. read more

I drove from Rehoboth, Delaware to bring my girls to skate because it's the only option in the area really and I've never tried it. I remember being young and LOVING skating so I was really excited to bring them when they asked to come. Now, when we came in the door greeter was so kind and welcoming we were there on (July 27th from 7-9:30), the skate guard was so kind and helpful. What killed the experience for us and honestly ruined our night was what I am about to say here after, you're establishment offered a great $40 family deal that included a whole pizza and a pitcher of soda. Now we took that deal and the little girl at the counter was kind at first, the food came out fast and the soda was refreshing. PROBLEM: We had so much soda leftover and I have my two girls and my (4) year old with me so I can't just sit and babysit our dink's and you don't offer refills and the beverages are outrageously priced so I wanted to save what we had left. I asked for cups with lids and was informed I would have to purchase separate sodas to get cups with lids because you count the cups??? Now I offered to pay for the cost of the cup but I'm not going to pay for a whole new soda just to put lids on our already left over soda.... that's absolutely ridiculous. The staff workers behind the counter were of very little help just explained that they couldn't give me cups because you count them for theft reasons. Finally, a manager came and she too was not willing to give me the cups but finally complied and was understanding. I can't sit here babysitting sodas and if someone were to pour something in my child's drink a lawyer would definitely have been contacted. As a local business owner I would like to say the service was subpar and you're rules (if it is the policy they informed you've placed as the owner) are downright shameful!!!! If you can't afford cups, I'm sure I shouldn't be expecting a refund on our ruined time and yes it was ruined because after fighting for cups and lids for twenty mins my mood is ruined, my four year old is now upset because I was stuck arguing about lids and she couldn't play the games. My other daughters night is now subpar because they too had to watch me embarrassingly argue over LIDS!!! This was a terrible experience and this was something we were looking forward to for a few weeks because I work so often it's hard for me to take my girls to do things. Thank you for the wasted drive and tears on my child face. I did want to add one thing: Savannah the floor gaurs was amazing, SHE made my child smile and SHE is a great member of your team. She is the friendliest face in the building along with the lady st the front window tonight, the manager whom I didn't get her name was also kind ... she was simply doing her job and doing it the best she could. It's not her fault that the owners implement this ridiculous policy. The counter girls did their job as well but could have been much friendlier about it and not screaming from the front to back about it. They were not impressive in the customer service area. Should the owner see this and feel compelled to speak with me about the issues my email is EasyBreezy88@aol.com. I am not sure I'll hear back but if I did it would at least show professionalism. read more

It's your only option in Dover, so by default it's the best. Prices aren't bad. Staff isn't too enthusiastic. Dark and dingy looking. Typical 80's rink vibe. I'll keep coming bc the kids want to. Make sure you lock your car and valuables hidden; cars get broken into all the time here. read more

Quintessential skating rink, with quintessential mediocre pizza, soft drinks, and limited selection of arcade and other dates novelties. The DJ however was entirely one- sided to gangsta rap. If you enjoy this then this will be your element and you will be completed satisfied. If that is not the case, you will be questioning your choice. read more

I appreciate the full refund received from Dover Skate Center. Perhaps I may give them a second chance as they were professional enough to return my payment in full. read more

Had a blast here. I love to skate and am new to the area, but found this place to be a great time. They have everything you want in a skating arena. I gave it four stars, because the food was not so great but I guess that should have been expected. You can't have it all...... read more
