Went with another family Sunday and we all had a blast. First time on roller skates for the adults since we were kids. All the kids first time, they did great! The kids skates light up which was exciting for them lol. The music was great, staff super friendly and it was fairly quiet when we got there at lunch time which was nice to get used to skating again. It got a bit busier but never felt crowded. Kids got some snacks from the canteen (hot food you would have to go to the bowling alley/arcade) .. overall a super fun couple of hours and a great workout 😮💨🤣
Love this place! I took my kiddo for a skate during an in-service day and he had a blast and so did I. We are going to become regulars!!
Highly recommend Upshaw’s Roller Dome to people, young and old. The owners are amazing and so helpful with tips for beginners or more comfortable skaters wanting to expand their skills. You can roller skate or in-line skate, rentals are available in all sizes. Great music, fun lights and tons of fun!! Check them out and support a local small business.
I was nervous because I hadn't been on roller skates in a VERY long time. The staff was amazing and helpful, and the helper out on the rink was great with providing tips to help me remember how to skate. He was also wonderful with my daughter and other people who were skating for the first time ever.
The lobby, rink, and bathrooms were all very clean. The rink itself was very fun and a decent size. We were there for a special K-Pop event so I am biased, but the music was fantastic; I also thought the lighting effects were a nice touch (hint - wear something white or neon and you can glow).
The rentals were very comfortable. If you require a helmet (or want one for your own reassurance) you need to bring your own, but they have a lot of skates in varying sizes. Make sure to bring a bit of extra cash for the canteen if you get hungry or thirsty - they have water, pop, chips, chocolate, and cotton candy all at very reasonable costs.
Overall, a fantastic Friday night and I look forward to going back again some night!
(PS If you're worried about going because you are "older" don't be! There were people of all ages there and no one seemed to look or feel out of place. It's fun whether you're young or not-so-young!)
Had a wonderful time at the roller dome this week. It was my first time roller skating, the rental skates were comfortable, everything was clean. It's such a positive environment. I really appreciated that they give you lots of tips and encouragement to help you get comfortable. Will definitely be going back.
