Probably the best sheet of ice in Fairfield County, if not the whole of CT (short of…read moreprivate/professional rinks). The staff is always super nice and helpful. Facilities have been kept up to date and the place is clean (for a hockey rink, anyway). If you are here for a game, the stands having excellent viewing angles. Great place to learn to skate (both of my kids did) and the local youth hockey program Stamford Sharks is a great family program with solid coaching. I wish there was a snack bar, but there are great local shops nearby. If you arrive in the summer, the staff will give you a parking pass that lets you park for free in the lot next to the rink. Just let the Cove Park gate attendant know that you are here for the rink, and they will let you in.

Located in the park, I'm not sure if you need a permit during the May to September season as the rest of the park requires it.

New apartment buildings are going up all over downtown further contributing to congestion. Many of these buildings are unsafe as builders rush and cut corners to accommodate section 8 subsidized housing units required by the City. The public schools are failing as their are controlled by a BOE that is politically motivated by Democrats to dumb down the curriculum so that "everyone" passes. As a result, standardized test scores have seen a steep decline in the past 10 years according to data made available by the NYT, compared to similar districts in the state. I know that people from out of state may be curious about a move to Stamford. I encourage them to explore other towns and cities in CT. It's just not what the Mayor chalks it up to be. The taxes are high, the political system is sketchy and traffic is horrendous.

There's no ramp to get onto the metal bleachers. The step onto the first set of bleachers is about 12+ inches high! A wheelchair would not be able to wheel by the bleachers as it's already tough to walk by in a single file line. If you're in a wheelchair, you're stuck watching from the glass right by the entrance and you're going to have to be tall or you won't see anything. It's September and this rink is extremely freezing. I can only imagine how cold it must be in winter months. Pro shop isn't open. Bathrooms are gross with no ADA accommodations. I hope I don't have to return to this rink ever again.

Growing up, we had a lake that froze over right by our house, and we would skate all winter long. I…read moreloved being outdoors and figure skating or trying to play hockey as a kid. This rink brings me back to my childhood. It's, of course, outdoors, and super cheap with a Groupon (under $20 total, for two, with a Groupon). That price also includes the skate rental, which are readily available in all sizes. At the rink, they have music playing, and people of all ages on the ice. Although, the times I've visited, I've mainly seen younger teenagers and kids on the ice. About an hour into free skate, if the weather is warm, the rink can get a little soft and icy, but that's what you expect with an outdoor rink. The rink can get crowded at times and a lot of people tend to gather on towards the one entrance/exit. The inside ticket area offers no refreshments, vending machines or even water fountain, so come prepared and hydrated. They do have lockers, but you pay every time you open them (quarters only), so plan accordingly. Parking is easy and people are coming and going all fay, so even on the Sunday before Christmas, I was easily able to find a spot. The staff here seems to be mainly high school students, who are attentive and very friendly. Overall, a great way to spend some time outdoors in the winter.

I arrived right at 11p with an avid skater, after signing the waiver & paying, of course & we reserved our seating with her tote bag. Feeling nostalgic, I started on the quads (female size 7, they don't have 1/2 sizes). After several minutes of getting the laces right, I did a choppy roll/walk on the old carpet to the rink. Immediately, I felt my left foot pulling & it also felt like I was rolling on pebbles. After about 3 rounds I switched to a male size 6 quad. These felt better & smoother but it was still a workout to get momentum. I gave these about an hour before switching to blades, male size 5. Now, I was happy! The rest of the night (til 2a) I was flying around the rink (to the best of my ability). More & more people flooded in & the pros were fun to watch dance on their skates. A few trains were formed & a couple of skaters took a tumble. People were so nice helping others up & some were practicing & teaching in the middle of the floor. The music being played ranged from old school, new school & I think EDM. Lights went on & off, the a/c was pumping (Hallelujah!). I took a few time outs, because it's definitely a workout. Their food is decent. I had a hotdog & curly fries to keep me going. I may just do a whole pizza next time. All in all, this is a nice place to skate. Because I arrived early, I got to see the floor cleaned & refreshed after the last skating session. To me, the floor was smooth, I didn't feel any dips or bumps. The rental skates aren't the best so bring your own. I'm grateful for the ladies & gentleman behind the counter being patient with me, while I figured out the best fit. I'm also grateful they let you switch & without additional fees. Each time I changed, they would immediately spray the disinfectant. I plan on purchasing some blades of my own & making this a frequent occurrence. It was also nice to see that no one bothers your belongings. I believe the lockers are only..50¢ but I'd rather have things readily available. I've also learned to dress light, bring plenty of water, a hand towel, a phone holder & maybe bring extra deodorant. I'm happy to say, I didn't fall once!

That was in 2021. I returned another time and parents were just throwing their kids in the rink to tire them out because they didn't want to deal with them. The rink is old and dated and has been for years. Don't expect it to change. Like all other dates rinks, the food is overpriced chuck e cheese slop. It feels like when I was in middle and high schooI. I suggest eating before coming here. I also recommend buying your own skates as rentals are not only gross but not safe. Put that $5 back in your pocket. The music is like top 40 stuff and some old school music for the old and experienced folks. I skated on and off from middle school to summer camps and church groups. Pushing 40 and out of shape but I regained confidence. Sometimes it's not the rink itself, it's the people. It was a very chill Sunday that wasn't too crowded. if you're nostalgic or you just want a good workout, it's good. But if you're expecting a modern 2025 skating rink with today's music and gen z'ers and alphas, it's not gonna happen.

This area hasn't always had the best track record when it comes to keeping places clean or well-maintained (I'm thinking of that old movie theater down the road), so I wasn't sure what to expect. But, truthfully, I have no major complaints. The rink was impeccably clean, the staff were friendly and helpful, and the whole place just felt upbeat and well-run. Even the food was surprisingly good, granted its hot dogs and pizza. I did not strap on a pair of skates and take my big booty on the rink, but the kids (and adults that were braver than me) had an amazing time - nothing but laughter. One slight thing that I didn't like is that those hand roller thingys kids use to prevent face planting cost extra, and it was both overly costly and created a logistical nightmare because everyone was stealing each others (not sure the kids understand they had to be paid for so if they where around they just took one) Overall though, solid roller rink.

There is a small room before entering the rink with a few tables to sit down at and put your skates on. It becomes very crowded at the end of public skating hours as everyone is in the same area and there aren't many seats so it may be easier to exit the rink a few minutes before the public skating hours end. There are also a few open cubbies to store your belongings in. You need to make an account online in order to use the rink which can be done beforehand or in person with the QR code at the front desk. The ice rink also offers classes for children and adults.

And I found…read morethis one to have a more reasonable price point at $15 per skating session which includes skate rentals. The skating session is a bit tricky, it can range from 1.5 hours to 2.5 hours but you would always know in advance upon online signup. The public skating session is available for registration online. As with any skating place, the skates that everyone uses are no good, always good to invest in a pair, more comfortable and won't ruin the experience. It's one hockey size rink with no lockers. They have cubbies to put your shoes and might fit a really small bag. They have vending machines at reasonable prices. Parking lot has a lot of spaces but apparently it does fill up quick. The place is very very very very old, but that didn't matter to me because the rink is good and the ice is not bad, works for the purpose.
