Went to Skate America in Grove City and don't ever plan on going back. Their parking lot is small,…read moregravel, and has many holes. This is a very small facility; I've never seen a smaller roller rink. There should have been a cap of how many people allowed in, because it made skating and just moving around inside so difficult. Everything looks at least 30-40 years old here, our booth was wobbly and unstable. The carpet was old and stained. It was very challenging to move around on the carpeted areas, but also the rink, due to the extreme number of people in the building. I felt like I was in a packed bar or club. I can't overstate that there were way too many people and children. The rink itself is painted concrete, which I've never seen before. It is somewhat uneven, you can feel the small rises and falls in the concrete, but it's not too severe. There were A LOT of children with the little PVC skate-aid things, but skating as an adult was made extremely challenging & nearly impossible because of this. The music they played was fun, and there was some interactions from the DJ, like a backwards skate only, and "all girls only skate," and then "all boys only skate," for a song each. I did like that there are ceiling fans over the rink, to cool you down. The ceiling felt really low, which I think made the whole place feel even smaller. The bathrooms were pretty clean and well stocked, but I didn't like that there were no hooks on the bathroom stall doors. They did let me bring my water bottle in, which I appreciated. There were lockers, but we didn't rent one. Overall, this place is probably fine if you're a kid, but terrible if your an adult skater looking to skate. Go to United Skates or America on Refugee instead!!

The party included a kids table set up with plates napkins and a table cloth some soda and pizza. The pepporoni pizza was pretty good for a skating rink. Miya did real well hosting especially since it seemed she was responsible for multiple party's on her own. We waited maybe an hour for pizza, allowing guests to skate a nice amount before eating. Miya also helped light the candles and hand out pieces of the cake. I would book another party here for sure.

The rink is suitable only for experienced skaters as they do not provide skating aids of any kind. We brought our kids, who are still learning. It wasn't worth anything. Another issue was that the rink surface had about 2 inches of water(on Dec 29th 2024),this made skating even more challenging and unsafe for novices. On a positive note, their staff were very helpful and attentive.

Since the new owners took over, you can really tell how much pride and care they've put into making this a fun, welcoming place for everyone. There is always something going on -- definitely check the event calendar. We've attended Taylor Swift Night, Minion Night, Santa Claus Night, and even just a regular Saturday skate, and every time the vibe has been great. The energy feels fresh, organized, and family-friendly, and you can tell a lot of thought goes into the events they plan. They also do fun drawings and giveaways, which makes the nights even more exciting. We've entered a few times and have actually won -- my daughter won a Taylor Swift album and magazine on our last visit, which absolutely made her night. I know this place used to have mixed reviews in the past, but it truly feels like a whole new chapter. If you haven't been in a while, I highly recommend giving it another try. Our family looks forward to coming back again and again.

You're not going to get a 5 star dinner here. The music is very family friendly, as well as the staff. One older woman walked around with my 11 year old stepdaughter the length of the rink her first time on skates. There's a wide selection of snack choices, from pickles to pizza, candy and soda. There's plenty of arcade games as well that dispense tickets the kids can exchange for prizes, but it's a huge waste of money in my eyes. (Ex: a plastic basketball is 200 tickets) I, as well as my family. will definitely be back.

I used to play hockey here in high school, and I can tell you, going back to play hockey now, not a whole lot has changed. It's nice to get that old school hockey rink feel, but this isn't really much of a public rink, mainly used for high school hockey. They occasionally have open drop-ins and 'stick and puck's. It'd be great if the Chiller put some money into it with the rising popularity of hockey in Columbus. The city needs another good ice rink.

This one in particular has a good pro shop in comparison to the one at Easton, but for the serious skater/hockey player, you're probably going to want to check out Hockey Stop on Bethel R or the new Perani's at Polaris. It looks like they offer lots of different private lessons, and they have a few off ice skating machines that can help those just starting out. I've heard rumors that they have enough land to expand the place and add an additional rink, and if they do that, it'll be the only three-rink complex in town.
