We enjoyed our first visit to this very nice Glenview Community Ice Center.  A major $30 million…read morerenovation was completed on it back in 2020, but I never saw the former facility, only the current brand newish state.  It has two NHL sized hockey rinks and a 2nd floor grandstand along with a small bar for one of the rinks.  It also has a pro shop, training rooms, and offers the usual skating classes and hockey programs.  They currently have a couple hours of public skating during each day of the week and that's what the grand-darlings and their mom came in for during a school holiday today and we took the opportunity to visit.  They have a family pass and it only takes 3.5 visits to break even on that pass, so it's a good deal at a first rate facility.  Visiting here brought back memories of the many hours we spent in the stands of the Skokie Skatium ice arena and a Houston ice arena as the parents of a youth figure skater, and I can attest that this is a very nice facility.  Big thumbs up!

Back in 5th grade, we used to go there for Friday Night Skating and hold hands with boys... hehehehe. They have an awesome concession stand and they have the BEST food! Love the nachos and churros. Ok I haven't been here since junior high but I know it still exists. I know Centennial has really expanded throughout the years so I am not sure what else is there now. But it's a good place to bring kids to.

This was the first time my 6.5 year old son tried it and he was able to use a skate assistant sled. Unfortunately, the usage time is limited for others to use as well. And if a person didn't return theirs in the 20 minute slot, noone bothered going out to get it. So we patiently waited A few weeks later we go back here for a birthday party. I think we had an hour in the room and another hour on the rink. Not bad, but we felt rushed in the room eating & cake. Then, at the ice rink they had FOUR skate assistant sleds for us to use. Now, it's a party with about 20 kids, most of whom haven't skated before. So 'sharing' the sled was an issue. I asked someone that worked there if we could borrow more (because I know that had more & they weren't being used on the other side), but she said we are only allowed 4. Boo!

I came here to try ice skating for the first time in 25 years. Open skating fees and skate rental…read morefees are comparable to other arenas in the area. But, the perk here is that they don't charge more for non-residents to skate, so if you're bringing non-local friends, they won't have to pay more than you (unlike Evanston and other skating rinks). I do wish that they had some sort of pass card though like Evanston and Wilmette rinks both offer. Their website is a bit dated and confusing, but I sent them a message on Facebook to confirm their public skate hours and they got back to me within minutes, which was nice. They also have skate sharpening, which I definitely need before I try skating again (but haven't used that service yet). The rink itself is nice. It wasn't too crowded when I went during the week a week before Christmas, and the skaters I did meet were friendly. The woman at the desk was helpful as well. I'll definitely come back.

I had so much fun. It was a true throwback 30+ years to my childhood. It was fun to get out on the rink and skate like I was eight years old again. The staff were super friendly. We went once on Saturday night and learned that they had a Sunday afternoon special for families, four people for $35 including skates, so we came back again the following day. Amazing time. Great fun. Highly recommend.

Awesome area. Definitely you should stop and enjoy it

We came here for a hockey game, but the Ninja Park is awesome!…read more For hockey, it was a nice rink with a raised adjacent bar with windows, so it made for a great viewing spot for the game. There's also a huge overlook where many of the spectators watched from, because the bleachers were not much higher than the glass. The only complaint is that there are only two stairwells to get to the balcony... one on the far side of the ice and one through the bar. Slightly challenging with little ones. As far as the Ninja Park, we didn't use it, but we were able to observe it from the lobby and it is quite the adventure! There were tons of inflatable spaces to jump, climb, and play on. There were long slides and trampoline areas and you could tell the kids were having a blast. The concession stand was hopping, here. The smell of the fresh pizza was awesome. The line for concessions was always packed and the prices were above average, but still reasonable. Lastly, the local police was handing out for a few hours while we were there, so it felt safe.

He absolutely loved it. Loved jumping and the toddler area. The parking lot was huge. Overall this was convenient and a good value.
