i enjoy going to this skating rink every time! but this one employee Makenzie was extremely rude to me, kept giving me mean looks always being rude to my boyfriend as well. i'm so glad she's gone she was not good for the business!! read more

We were invited to a 2 hour private birthday party on a Saturday. Based on reviews, I was leery of what the experience would be like. I'm glad to say that we had a nice time. As someone who grew up going to roller rink birthdays, it was instantly nostalgic for me. The area was clean, spacious, & had a lot of table & booth seating. There were a few arcade games, but some were out of order. They played current music & had cute lighting. Walker-type devices were available to rent for a fee for those still learning. Rental skates were adequate & true to our normal shoe sizes. Lockers for storing personal items were 50 cents. Pizza was served hot & was satisfying enough for a kids party. Staff was not interactive besides the DJ, who led everyone in a birthday moment--having everyone form a circle around the the guest of honor to sing & do the Hokey Pokey. Otherwise, the staff just carried on with tasks & did not give off friendly vibes. read more

Fantastic birthday party experience! We reserved a private party for my daughter's birthday in July. The staff were extremely helpful in explaining our options and directing us when setting up. The kids had a blast skating, playing limbo, and all joining in the center of the rink to sing happy birthday. The DJ played songs/music requested by us and the guests. It was honestly such a stress free experience and my daughter loved it. Shout out to the gal running the front desk, she was especially helpful and her customer service is top notch. Sadly, I can't recall her name. read more

Hands down cleanest rink I've ever been to. Snack bar is exceptionally clean. So are all the tables, carpet, and rink itself. Fun games, they play about 2 per session. Very fair pricing. Amazing manager (I think manager lol), the older woman at the front window who gave us our hand stamps and let us in was exceptionally kind. Overall a great experience and will very likely return. 10/10! read more

My kids love coming here. The music is appropriate, the prices are great, and the vibe is amazing. The staff is very welcoming and friendly. And its super close to home. read more

My son and I really enjoy this place. Fair priced for what they offer and would recommend it to those who love to skate. Thank you guys!!

Great time here works are helpful. Always making sure you're ok if you fall. Snack bar is only cash but they do have a . Games are out of service. I wonder how long it take for them to be fixed. The lobby is clean and the other lobby is clean. I would say tues is the best. We came first thing and it's not crowded. We usually come in the evening and it's too crowded. Weekends are the same because of birthdays. It's convenient for us around from our house. read more

Staff is not properly trained,provided me with different information for two different members. Food is horrible pizza is nasty I'd recommend for you to eat before coming here sodas are not refillable and the cup only contains around 12oz, not to mention that they try to direct the events when you have paid for a rental. 0/10. THE RESTROOM STALLS DONT HAVE DOORS no dividers for urinals either. read more

Enjoyed this skate rink with my kids for a private event, very retro in all the right ways, and helpful staff! Nostalgia...

10/10 recommend going her for a birthday party! I rented out foothill skating rink for my daughter's birthday, and the staff totally made my daughters birthday magical! They answered all our questions, were helpful on the decorations, and all had positive attitudes. I will definitely be going back and will rent out this location again for a birthday or maybe just for fun because who doesn't love rollar skating! Thank you again to all the staff for making my daughters birthday such a special memory for the books! read more

I just threw a birthday party for my daughter here and they did such an amazing job. The venue is clean and has a ton of space, the skating rink is huge. It has plenty of space for big groups. There is a snack bar and games. The DJ did an amazing job too! The kids were able to request songs and he did games with them. The owners were so so nice to us and took such good care of us. They were a pleasure to work with. Really a great option for a private event, cannot say enough nice things. Thank you Foothill Skate! read more

Highly recommended for anyone learning to skate. Only $7 a person. The Saturday staff are very compassionate and willing to work with all levels of skaters. They have cards that tell you how to progress to the next level, and a mini graduation ceremony at the end of every Saturday class for anyone who completed their level and moving up to the next. I've been coming here since 3rd grade. Even my mother has been coming here since her childhood. Great place, great staff, great memories. read more

Visited Foothill Skate with a friend and my gosh was it a throw back. I feel like I stepped right back into my childhood. The wacky carpet, the cheap snacks, and the bumpin music was certainly what you'd expect from a classic roller rink. The prices were extremely fair and make this a wonderful place for a frequent hang. I was surprised to see a kids birthday happening. I didn't realize kids still had birthday parties at roller rinks! I had one myself back in the day so it was nice to see. The staff were very friendly and helpful. It was a fun night and I cant wait to back again read more

The owners keep the floor clean, and they hire staff to make sure the kids stay out of trouble. They have more staff than most other rinks in the area. They are also more reasonably priced. read more

This place was so cute and very well maintained! The place is retro which is always a plus but very clean. Prices are cheap for rentals and admission and they take care of the floor very well. No water distortions! I will say the music is quite fun to skate to. They do games every half hour or so which gives some people the chance to take a break or participate in a game! The snack bar is well stocked and has great options. Overall this place is a solid rink, very clean and well maintained. Great value read more

Do you want to skate SAFELY? Do you enjoy rules that keep people SAFE? Look no further! Foothill skate is a great, family fun place to get fit and have some fun! I've been going here for over a decade and I love it here. I've never had an issue at this roller rink. Thank you guys for making my childhood better. If you need skates they will gladly help you find the right fit for you, at what seems like little to no profit for them! Let them know if you don't know the difference between skates and their purpose. They are super helpful authorized Riedell retailers! read more

Definitely a no nonsense roller skating rink. Kids have birthdays here and they roller skate. You park, walk in through the door, pay for skating and a rental and go through the locked doors that they buzz you through. You walk to the back to get the size you need for your skates, put them on, put your stuff in the lockers they have available (coins are recommended by the way) and that's that. If you get hungry along the way, there's a snack bar with cheap eats but they only accept cash. The only place that accepts card is when you first walk in and pay for your session and rental. There are tables and chairs but most of the time the parties take over those areas. Food options typically range from pizza, hot dog, pop corn, nachos, chips, sodas, water, etc. Roller skating makes you sweaty. It's a work out. There are people falling left and right and there are people speeding by you and around you left and right. You need to be aware of your surroundings at all times. Despite it being a workout, it's fun if you know what you're doing, if you don't know what you're doing, there are roller helpers to help you roll along. Use one if you aren't a strong roller skater. Better safe than sorry. It's fun. Workers are pretty nice. They take safety seriously so that's always a plus, the bathrooms are questionable, and the food is just ok. Like I said, this place is non nonsense. It was fun for my sons and I. We're usually here for birthday parties so it's fun for that aspect. For adults and teens, maybe try the other place that don't have so many kids falling down or running everywhere. read more

We loved having a private birthday party at Foothill Skate Inn today! Everyone had a great time skating, including the adults! I chose to do a private party so that we could invite lots of friends and so siblings and parents can skate too! We ordered a 6 pizzas from the snack bar and brought our own cupcakes, water bottles and ice cream which was allowed. There is an extra fee if you want to bring other outside food for a private party or you can just order from the snack bar. The employees were super attentive and helpful, the DJ was awesome. Very reasonably priced to have the whole place to ourselves. read more

This is a family friend and clean skating rink. The employees are very kind and helpful. I only have 4 stars because the rental roller skates could be better maintained. read more

I literally made a Yelp account to write this review.The guy was a asshole I decided to last minute meet up with my friend to go skating he rudely came up to my car door and told us we couldn't go in with out a adult which is understandable but the attitude he gave us and the harassment not to mention we couldn't even go in because it was all done in sessions he said we could wait in the lobby (which was really shitty) and couldn't even go inside the actual place then he gave my mom more attitude and started comparing there place to a movie theater just over all bad experiences wouldn't recommend the photo I attached was the asshole of a employ no one should treat customers like he did. read more

Food is terrible, customer service is non existent, and the overall experience was dreadful! I'm surprised this place is still in business by the way that the manager speaks to customers. Absolutely ridiculous! read more

LOVE this place!!!! its so fun to roller skate here! they have good music, okay snacks, and benches for u to put on ur skates!!!! i cant believe people would give this one star. i totally recommend it for a fun family night!! they even give u walkers (roller skate trainers, look them up) for kids who are new to skating, which is SO COOL! this is the only roller rink ive been to so i might be a bit biased, but i LOVE this place! :) read more

Our experience was Good the staff was very nice, the parking lot was clean, bathrooms 4 out of 5, Carpet and the skate ring perfect! Food at the concession stand was reasonably priced for what they had. Pricing wise I think it was average $6 for admission and $5 for skates, Skate helper was $10. Things that help out the business: *Coin changer for the few games and entertainment *Registers that are credit card accepted *TV style displays to see what food/snacks are actually available *Dispenser with socks,laces,glow stuff, & light up items Overall we had a wonderful time and definitely will be back for more great memories! read more

Bad Management. Overly priced EVERYTHING . Makes more sense to take the drive and go to the rink.

Hired for a party. They double booked. Food wasn't cooked. Owner named Jan is a b'tch and won't help in any way they're selling frozen pizzas from Walmart for $15. Dirty and nasty. The lady in a moo moo was disgusting and rude. Not enough staff. Charged my card after I left. They steal read more

The staff at this roller rink were really helpful and nice. However, the rink itself needs updating. The floor boards have dips and crannies in them that affects skating. But my friends and I had fun skating read more

Wish I could give ZERO starts!!!! Paid almost $500 to rent the place out for a 2 hour party, 15 minutes into our 2 hours. Staff had not cleared out the people before us. And when we asked them to they said they would and then did nothing. The music was barely loud enough to hear. And when my autistic 8-year-old son put 4 quarters in a video game That did not work, but with no sign that said out of service, I told the staff but they said they would not refund the money because the skating rink does not own the machines and that there were signs that said so on the machines, but there were no signs. On that particular machine, so I spoke with the manager, who was a miserable and very rude woman. She told me.Why would anyone put money in a machine with a blank screen!!! I told her my kid is 8 and autistic!!!! Most kids would put money in without thinking twice about a black screen!! There was no "out of service" sign on it!!! I reminded her that we had just paid almost $500 for this party.So for her to refuse to give my special needs sun his four quarters back, was outrageous!! She said she would give it to me this time but that I should really keep him off the machines!! What the hell!!! How dare her!!! During our 2 hours, we got absolutely no help from the young miserable and ghetto staff, there was no food or drinks included in our fee, and when it was time for the next party, they were QUICK to get us out!!!!! I will never book a party at this roller rink.Nor will I ever bring my son back here for even an afternoon of recreational activities!! And I will make sure to Never recommend this place to anybody that I know!!!!! read more

We should all be super grateful that a roller rink is still even open in Sacramento let alone three. They are all gone in the Bay Area. I've been coming to Foothill now for about 4 years since moving to West Sacramento. This rink is great! The floor is well maintained, smooth, no bumps or issue w the wood flooring. I generally come during the summer and winter breaks from 1-4pm. It's never crowded, the music is good and the lights get turned off and the black lights come on often. We have had two birthdays here. The staff was awesome to work with. The only thing I wish they could fix is the food. Fresh pretzels, pizza, nachos with more topping options and drink options like sparkling water, coffee (even in a can) and maybe coconut water would be a game changer. If they stepped up the options at the snack bar it could help business. read more

If I could give it negative stars I would. I went to this location for a birthday party. They charge $8 for individuals who are not skating and $11 for skaters. Upon arriving, there was a disabled customer attempting to attend a birthday party and they charged her an $8 spectator fee. The person at the counter basically said it didn't matter and everyone had to pay to get in. I understand that as a policy, but the person was rude and $8 for a spectator fee, especially for adults is outrageous. The snack bar wasn't opened for 1.5 of the 2.5 hours that we were there. The nacho cheese was cold, and the pizzas were little, burnt and too expensive. This is not a place I would recommend unless revamped and they remember that customers are what makes their business run. The need to remember to be kind to people. read more

It needs more workers I mean yes it sounds like I'm impatient but like there's one worker at the counter and they're not even helping the people that's waiting in line and there's a dress code why would you put a dress code at the rink I mean yea people judge but who cares you can wear hat or tank tops like what read more

Don't waste your money! If you aren't paying for a private party experience, DON'T BOTHER! We paid $150 dollars to do the free skate on a Saturday afternoon from 1-3:30. The website for Foothill Skate says that private parties are only held Saturday mornings until 1pm. We found an empty table and ordered some snacks and drinks, and started to skate. We were asked to leave the rink several times during the free skate so that the birthday parties (what?!?) could have the rink to themselves to skate and do activities. Around 2:30 we were asked by an employee to move from our table for another birthday party that would be coming in at 3:15. One of the employees came and showed us a different table that we could sit at, so we moved to the other table and kept skating. At 2:45 a different employee came over to tell us that we needed to give up the new table we had been moved to for another party. (wHaT?!?) Remember that the website explicitly says that private parties do not take place after 1pm. We spent $150 for the privilege to skate, and private parties had a $100 or $200 flat rate, depending on the size of the party and the amenities you chose. When we asked to speak to the manager, we were told, "that's not my job. I have other stuff I have to do right now." (WHAT?!?) Ultimately we went and talked to the manager who told us that there wasn't anything she could do to help us. (WHAAAAAAT?!?) We pulled off our skates, and will NEVER be back! IF YOU AREN'T PAYING FOR A PRIVATE PARTY, THE CUSTOMER SERVICE IS HORRIBLE! Don't waste your money! read more

All skating rinks get five stars from me! With rinks closing all over the country you guys are missing the point of the beauty of having a skating rink to enjoy. People put their personalities and their egos in the way and get offended and give a rank one star rating because of somebody's attitude or some bullshit reason! The rules are there for your safety And help ensure enjoyment! It's not a place to drop your kids off for cheap babysitting! You can always expect something to go wrong somewhere that's life deal with it- I think the owners of this Rink keep a tight handle on things and people are respectful!! Thank you Fotthill for being open on Monday nights when no other ranks are! #love2roll!! read more

This has been around forever! I actually grew up at this skate ring when I was a kid. My school hosted their skate nights here, so it was a blast from the past when my school (I'm a teacher) had their skate night here. I will say, it hasn't changed a bit in 20 years. What has been noticeably updated is the arcade games. It would have been cool to see the old ones, but let's me real! When we went, everything was clean. I didn't try the food, because I was out on the rink doing laps around my students! The people working seemed friendly enough. They charge $5 for the kiddie helpers (I call them). These help those young or new skaters that need something to hold onto while they practice skating. They seemed to have a ton, because that night every single one was rented and on the rink. I will say that it is a bit small in that it lacks comfortable seating for everyone. When it's packed, parents are standing near tables or along the walls because there's no one to sit. I would definitely go back though. It brings back memories. Thanks for sticking around for so long! read more

Don't waste your time and money here! Now charging 8.00 to watch the kids skate. (Admission 8.00 does not mention spectators)They also make their rounds to verify a hand stamp, a bit degrading, makes you feel like a criminal,especially when you have to be buzzed in for the door to open ( prison vibe for sure) The one kid that works the rink is very rude to small children. We have been coming over 20 years. It's not the same!! Definitely head over to Roseville and visit Roller King for a nice experience. Ps I had to make a yelp account to warn you guys!! read more

I wouldn't even give it a one star review. Went to a private birthday party and the workers were yelling and screaming at the customers who paid for the party. They were 30 minutes late to letting the party in and begin and then allowed for no time at the end of the party to get the gifts or anything packed up before yelling and screaming at the party guests. Absolutely horrible service and the place wasn't even clean. read more

Despite the ghetto location, its surprisingly awesome. Skate floor wasnt bumpy which is a big deal for us considering my daughter is a speed skater. Thanx Foothill Skate! We will be back. read more

Talk about a blast from my past, i haven't skated since i was probably around 16 years old. My wife and i took our kids on a Saturday and it was busy. But still a great time. Its $6 for a session of skating, and if you don't have your own skates or in-line (roller blades) you can rent them for $3, if you have a child who wears sizes 7 to 10 you need to leave yiur id or drivers license for a deposit, but not on any other sizes though. They have up to size 14 in skates (thats my size 14, not sure if bigger size available ) in roller blades they had up to size 12. If you haven't been before or not feeling sure in skating they can tighten the wheels so they don't go so fast, makes it almost like walking if you want it that tight, or loose for some speed skating. They also have some PVC pipes made into a walker like style with some roller blades as the wheels for training /assistance for rental fee of $5, but you will get back $2 when your finished and return it. Children under 4 can watch for free, but if they wanna skate you will have to pay for the session. They have some arcade games, air hockey (yeah buddy) basketball free throw game. You can have a birthday party here too. They have a little concession stand here, no outside food or drinks allowed in, except cake for birthday party when called ahead and booked. They play music while you are getting your skate on. They played all types of music, i remember beastie boys, gorillas, and a few newer bands, but all around music variety. They did stop a few times for speed skating which they had for ages 14 and under and then 15 and up, but you had to be able to skate on your own, no walkers or helpers. Then at the end of the session they played red light green light. It was fun to get out there and feel like a kid again, i still did some wind mill arm stretches to catch my balance, and i was able to get going good again by the end. My legs and thighs are feeling it, but i would be back again. Our kids had a great time and that made the day for us. If you wanna really get into it they do sell some skates ranged from $80 upto around $459. Call for more details, prices, and times. Plenty of parking in there own lot. Time to roll on out and and get back into the groove! read more

Wow this place is such a throwback to the 70's-80's! Same tacky carpeting throughout, same grimy rollerskates with worn out wheels and stoppers, basic snack bar serving hot dogs, nachos, and popcorn, and the same games being played on the rink (big fuzzy dice game). IT WAS COOL! I hadn't been to a roller rink in awhile, I'm talking sometime between the 70's and 80's, so I was pretty excited to get out there under the disco lights and do my thing. I used to be a good rollerskater and rollerblader back in the day, so I thought it was going to be as easy as riding a bike. Oh, hell no! I felt like a toddler trying to walk for the first time. My shins instantly started hurting, I didn't know hot to brake without clinging to the wall, and I had to get real creative in order not to run into any little kids or, God help me (!), fall on my ass! After a few times around, I started to get a little more confident, but I never really felt comfortable being on those 8 wheels. Rollerskating has always been a fun and cheap ($6) form of exercise and entertainment for me as a child and adult. So parents, introduce your kids to the roller rink, if you haven't already, and adults, we can still get our skate on with or without the kids (most rinks offer "adults only" sessions). read more
