Went here for a themed night and it was so fun! Cute spot with fun colorful lights and adult only skate options. A little crowded with the kids so I wonder if the adult only night is a better option for date nights. They have food and dippin dots!!! $8 to skate and $5 rentals is a good time! Parking can be tough so get there a little early if you can. read more

Skate City - Skating Rinks Near Me - Aurora, Colorado

We went for adult night and I hadn't skated in YEARS. They let me try on different sizes and even switch from quads to roller blades. The staff is super friendly. I didn't order anything from the concession stand. I was surprised to see they didn't sell any kind of liquor, not even beer. From what I remember of other skate places in other states they serve beer or draft. Maybe it is a good thing they don't sell it though. read more

I brought my three girls (all under 5) to a school skating event. Since it was everyone's first time, I used the ramp to help my daughter onto the rink--not realizing it wasn't allowed. Within seconds, a woman got on the loudspeaker and shouted, "As a reminder, again, the ramp is for wheelchairs. It is not for helping kids on or off the rink. Do it again and there will be repercussions!!" Verbatim. Pretty shocking--other parents even commented on how rude it was. Moments later, my daughter fell as I was helping the others on. I rushed out in my shoes to get her up, and immediately a worker told me, "You can't be on the rink with shoes on." I was clearly just exiting with her. The whole experience set such a negative tone. Some grace would have gone a long way. read more

This place was my childhood home basically and the fact that it's still around just brings so much joy to my heart. Roller skating is something I've been into for a while and I like to come here to continue supporting the business. $10 skate seshes, but I'm not too sure the price of renting skates since I have my own. You will need $1 in quarters to get a locker. But have multiple just in case you need to open it and close it again. You will need to pay every time. The music is oldies but still a bunch of bops. And they have adult skate nights! It's pretty cool. A little run down and definitely needs an update. But whatever. Still vibey. read more

I had such a great time last night. The managers are very professional. Also, the DJ was amazing for the adult night on Sunday 8 Pm- 10:30 PM. My husband and I are from Louisiana and trying to keep skating alive! We bring our own Harlick Roller Skates made in California, USA. For the past 10+ years we have made it our goal to skate in each state! We love to JAM, slow walk, free style, and couple dance skate on Adult Skate Night. Also, I enjoy a smooth hard wood floor to dance skate on. This skate floor is not wood! I am not sure what this floor is made from. It is a white hard floor. I was surprised but the floor was exceptional for dancing. Though it was a very busy night the positive groove was intoxicating. The crew here is talented and amazing. I loved the music and enjoyed the snack bar ($5 for 2 pepperoni pizzas and a coke). The Denver area is my favorite place to skate in AMERICA. read more

Slightly outdated, but the skate floor was awesome! The DJ was awesome and played great music. Very safety oriented. Everybody was respectful and having a great time. read more

This is the first time going to skate city in over 15 years and it's crazy it hasn't really change much. Still looks pretty much the same as it did when I was 16-17. I'm relearning how to skate and so coming here would be good practice for me. Anyways at face value, skating here is affordable and you get what you want out of it which is a couple hours of skating which is nice. I definitely enjoyed my time read more

We got here 20 minutes before the session ended and was charged $8 per person to skate for like 2 songs. I really love this place but you could've mentioned the sessions Edit: they fixed it and made it right thank you. I love youuuuuu!!! read more

Had a great time taking my son to a birthday party. It was busy and great music. Hope to go this summer for lessons.

I can't write a review on Skate City based on a recent visit, I wish I could. I've lived in Washington state since 2008 and I haven't been to Skate City since the 80s. The only reason I haven't been there since then is because adulthood got the better of me......but I can do a review based on the last time I was there. That's right, even though I'm just about to turn 45, I can remember that far back. The rink, the lights, the DJ, the food. It was all kind of annoying, so annoying......I can't even finish that sentence because I'm laughing so much. Skate City is a very positive impact on my youth, a place that I loved hanging out at and, if my friends and I weren't having our birthday parties at Showbiz Pizza Place, it was Skate City and at this very location. Thank you for not fading away and being bought out like Showbiz was. read more

After spending over $260 on reserving a party that comes with 3 shitty pizzas and horrible service, I am very very disappointed! Staff is slow, rude, and I pretty much ended up grabbing everything for our table. read more

Came here for a birthday party for one of my sons classmates last weekend. Pretty dirty place-what do you expect with this type of place? Felt like I went back in time which was cool. The place isn't in the best location and it seems young teens run the place LOL!! Scary!! All the rental skates seem to be falling apart and it's just super grungy. Honestly I think it's cool this place is around still since where I'm from they closed all the skate rinks since it's not "cool" anymore. But man they could crush it if they revamped the place and gave it a nice sanitizing scrub down. I would only go here again for a birthday not willingly on my own. I prefer to stick to ice skating. But if you are looking for nostalgia then this is your spot:). read more

Waited in line for 22 minutes for a pizza. Waited 28 minutes for it, went to check on it. They forgot my order and offered a Half Refund. A previous time we ordered pizza again but they gave it away to a different table. Eventually got our pizza, total wait to get it was 40 minutes. Other than that it's a great skating experience just eat before you go here. read more

Adorable classic feel. My son had a blast. The music was great. It is a younger crowd during the day.

Very friendly staff, and my two grandkids (2nd & 4th grades) love the skating and the activities.

Great place to come. Very reasonably price. The cost is less than six bucks to get in and get it she went on. The sessions are two hours long and you'll have to call to make sure when they are. They change. Feels like the same place from the 80s and 90s. Adult nights Friday or Saturday evening. The best time to go is Monday from 12 to 2 because there's virtually no one there is some arcade and the kids tickets for prizes. They have a small snack bar that's reasonably priced as well with hotdogs, pretzels, pizza and drinks. I had my daughter's birthday party here a few years ago and was only a couple hundred bucks for 18 kids with food and drinks. Check it out it's worth it read more

It's a hit or miss kind of thing here. Either you have a good night of crowd or you don't. I wouldn't feel comfortable dropping your 12 year old here on a Friday night though. The music played is PG which is nice and school nights are always better than weeknights with kids. One thing I'd like to see down the road... I really wish that they would have age group times. I know I'll have to cut the cord eventually and trust my daughters, but for now, mama will be roller skating a long right behind them. Lol. read more

Skate City - Fun! - Skating Rinks Near Me - Aurora, Colorado

What was I thinking? "Let's go to skate city." "It will be fun." "Then we can do dinner." That's what I told my teenage son. On a Thursday, during Winter break for the 4pm open skate session. I was kind of excited. I hadn't roller skated for a long time, but grew up skating. When you arrive, it is like going back in time. Old looking, Old smelling, Old feeling. But not in a good way. We paid (extra for my son to get in-line) and went to get our skates. I got mine, but they were out of my son's size. We waited. I went around a few times...then waited. No size 9 or 10 men's..."Don't know if we even have that size," said the attendant with no clue or enthusiasm at all. I went around a few more times (in between special skating things where I had to wait) Finally got a manager who looked in the back and brought out a pair, but... ..."didn't feel right." We left... read more

Not family friendly. I was late to pick up my teenagers after their skate session and they were forced outside at 6:30 when the temp was 26F. I don't understand why they couldn't just sit in the lobby. Who puts people, children, outside in the dark at those temperatures? If you are wondering why I was late, my youngest had broken his ankle. read more

Terrible people that skate here. First time tonight and got accused of stalking simply because I moved from a wobbly seat to the next one near them to sit down and relax. Manager came and spoke with me, was a little mad at him, but it's not his. I think the stay here are chill, but these people that attend are real jerks. I may give this place another chance because I'd rather learn how to skate and have fun, and it's not their fault they get liars causing drama. read more

Super accommodating for a first timer. Took my kido (5 yrs old) in not knowing what to expect. Was greeted with the outmost professionalism and warmth at the door. The skate trainers are a fabulous invention. Prices are appropriate for everything. The guys tightened up my sons skates several times without question or hesitation. One of the managers "Josh" had such a contagious sense of humor that my son even ran up to him on our second visit and hugged him. What a great asset he is! He genuinely cares about the customers and made a lasting impression. Signing up the kido for lessons as it's his new favorite place!! Highly recommended and will be bringing in more people. Thank You read more

Recently my child's organization held a fundraising event at this location. I just found out that this location did not provide them any monetary fund's from this fundraiser. This is highway robbery. Be very careful if you book something at this location that you specify with the party planner on what you are doing and whether it is a fundraiser or your requesting a discount. if not he will cheat you out of the money that should have been given to you for bringing patrons to their establishment and supporting a long term staple in this community. Fundraising scam at best. Time to build a new modern-day facility in our community. Boo Skate City Aurora,taking from our kids... read more

The manager was extremely rude!!!Not helpfull at all after the machine took our money and didn't let us play.All he said was:"I don't know what to tell you,Have to trust my machines" and he turned around and left.Super rude,disrespectful and not professional. read more

Went thinking they would have some covid regulations in place. They do not enforce masks and about half the people there were not wearing one. Way over a safe capacity. Honestly they should be shut down read more

This is a great place to take your kid skating. I don't understand all the negative reviews. The staff is helpful and they have plenty of roller skates. The bathrooms are clean and the refreshments are as expected. read more

I have a few concerns. The first is the quality of the food has decreased significantly while the prices have increased. I've attended three birthday parties, both in which MOST the pizza was thrown out. It tastes like garbage, maybe even worse. I'm sure management hasn't tasted it because if they did, even they would be embarrassed by the quality. Everything else is decent, or at least I should say, tolerable. For the price we pay for these birthday parties, we could at least get Chuck E Cheese quality, my goodness. Second, the games NEVER work. I spent $30 on two game cards. Once we went to enjoy our purchase, we were brought to an abrupt halt because the machines were off. The four games that are on rob you of your money because you must slide the card three times before it cooperates. Making the 50-cent game a dollar fifty. Once I realized my $30 purchase was a waste, I asked for a refund. Here is where my problem starts. We spent $1.50 (reluctantly) and when I realized we were robbed (because the game didn't work) I went to Matt Ross (your acting manager) for a refund and explained the games did not work and I wanted the remaining money back. After throwing an attitude, he reluctantly gave my money back. I had to ask this man THREE times for my money back and he only wanted to give me $17. So clearly, I had to do the math for this man. He had an attitude about giving me my money back and his specific words to me was "this is the last time I'll do this" (first of all, this was my first and LAST time asking for a refund, so that was annoying). I kindly (and with a slight attitude) told him he didn't have to worry about this issue again because I obviously wouldn't make another purchase like that there again!! So lucky for him, he's right. This would be his last. Third, it's probably time management replenish the so called "prizes" that are available for all that damn money. Five dollars' worth of candy available for prizes is just sad, and shameful. But since no one cares to fix the games, it's obvious this doesn't matter anyways. Plus NO ONE is ever at the game service desk so I'm sure y'all don't mind the children that went back there to claim their prizes anyways. (Least they got their money worth). Forth, treat your staff better. I understand this is just skate city and most the staff are kids, but they deserve respect. We overheard the staff complaining about how management treats them, and by the looks of it I don't blame them. I can only image the turnover rate; they can't even get a decent slice of pizza for lunch. At this point, does anybody even care? I'm not here to claim anything like coupons or anything of the sort. I'm simply here to say, you (and not specifically you Brock unless you are the one calling the shots) could do better. Take pride in your business and your establishment cause right now you don't, and it shows. Thanks for your time, hope this sits with you and you make the necessary adjustments. The bar is set so low, another establishment I'm sure will soon take your place. It's only a matter of time. God bless, and good evening read more

Skate city was a very fun place. I went to my niece's birthday party here. But as I was standing in line for the food. There was a man working behind the counter wearing a black shirt. Upon asking another employee I found out his name was TJ. He wasn't wearing gloves making and serving food. I specifically saw him grab a piece of pizza with his bare hands, put it on a plate and then serve it to customer. I had to have been waiting in line for at least 10 minutes and he never once washed his hands. I hope this gets addressed. read more

Cheap entry fee. Place is in desperate need of a makeover. It is old and dirty. The round sitting table bench things are all broken and there was 1 girl working the snack counter, had to wait 15 minutes to get a soda. My skates were so old and nasty. The laces were so beat up I couldn't lace my skates up all the way. The employee's are all young and skating super fast in between patrons doing all these fancy moves and it makes people fall. Not impressing anyone with those moves buddy. read more

I remember skating rinks being full of fun workers and enjoying myself as a child. This rink does not remind me of my childhood. The DJ was good and she seemed to have fun but every other worker may have come out of dawn of the dead. The ice cream is NASTY. Two of the four bathroom stalls were out of order. At least it's cheap to skate, but you get what you pay for. read more

I remember skating at this rink years ago when I was in middle school, now my kids love meeting their friends and having school nights there. Brock and his entire team are great! They are friendly and support the community like no other. My only recommendation would be to serve fresh coffee and some great grown up snacks. read more

Had a good, nostalgic time on the rink after my girlfriend talked me into it.. it was totally worth it, we had a great time and it was not over priced for the accommodations. We'll go back for sure read more

Had a very infuriating experience with your establishment. My three black boys were told that I had to stay and chaperone them while they skated. Which wouldn't have been a problem had I not watched four little white girls go in unchaperoned, then a litttle black girl who's mom was offered a waiver. Security explained that last weekend there had been a fight I assured them my kids could not have been a part of that as the last three weeks they've done other things then go to skate city. I've dropped my boys off countless times without issue. I do understand changing policies due to certain situations but that is only fair if those same rules apply to everyone.This is discrimination at its finest. It's sad cause my kids loved this rink we had our 12 years old birthday party here and now we have to permanently part ways as well as me share my experience with the rest of the black community. You cannot profit off of black children and then treat them as if they're second rate. read more

What a joke this place is. Signed my daughter up for a Saturday morning beginner class. We get there and there is about 50 kids, with 4 adult teachers, My daughter was given a pair of skates that weren't able to be locked. They didn't have any more skates her size. She had to sit out the entire class. The lady that did help us try to find a pair of skates that fit, forgot about us and never came back. The manager was out on the floor yelling at the kids like a drill sergeant. They charge $40 dollars for this class, I am convinced this was just an easy way for them to make money without actually giving a crap about the kids learning experience. Thanks skate city for giving my child the most memorable experience- she now never wants to attempt skating again. read more

Very poor trainers, just getting a group of people under the roof, get the training fee in account and then don't worry about training... but yes keep saying good job... disappointed!!!! read more

My 6 yr old daughter wanted to skate today and it's her bday so I obliged. This skate city looks pretty clean. The staff was friendly and on a Tuesday afternoon it's pretty dead. The the only real downside is the music. It's pretty lackluster.. read more

I enter the building with a sense of concern due to the sticky carpeted floor. The woman at the front gladly let us in and gave a stamp. I walked through a set of handless heavy doors into the room, full of extremely loud music. To the right is a restaurant full of women swearing at and spanking their children, and in front of me is a half-par, but one of the best local arcades. The arcade is as sticky, if not stickier, but contains ski-ball, donkey kong, and other games. From the right of the arcade is a long hallway of benches, and at the end is the skate rental. The skates were cleaned little, if at all. I rented a pair and rolled on the rink that takes up an approximate 800x300 foot area. The area is smooth, with now issues at sight. After skating I went to the pizza pavilion inside, the "pizzas of eight". after waiting for 15 minutes for a pizza I'm am more than happy to eat at first. But soon after taking a bite I immediately regretted the decision, and lowered my expectations. The pizza tastes of cheap wood shavings and American cheese slices. After rejecting the pizza i tried a pretzel. The pretzel was typical of any fairground's pretzel and actually decent. The Atmosphere is definitely a place where I would never drop off a kid below 13 years old, and that is incredibly cheap and sticky(even the seating). read more

I love skate city and always came to this location when I was little. I am super disappointed with what this place became. Everyone was super rude and the staff did nothing bout it. Don't get me wrong I understand rude people but if even the staff is rude that's something wrong. I know the staff has no control over people but it was really rude with people pushing and whatnot. What a waste of money. SUPER UPSET THAT I EVEN SPENT MONEY HERE. read more

We came in early to do a photo shoot and the staff and manager were super accommodating and pleasant and the facilities were fantastic. I would highly recommend this location to anyone who loves skating. read more

I took my girls here today with a coupon for free skate that my daughter got in her school folder for spring break. I handed the coupon to the attendant and was told that they didn't accept photocopies, I told him it wasn't a photocopy that my daughter had gotten it from school. He more a less called me a liar and when I asked to see the manager he refused to get him. I will not go here again even with a coupon, we spend a lot of money here and the way I was treated was reprehensible. read more
