Meadowvale 4 Rinks Arena is located at 2160 Torquay Mews in the north end of Mississauga, near Erin…read moreMills and the 401. It's home to Meadowvale Minor Hockey Association and Streetsville Meadowvale Skating Club, as well as countless adult rec hockey leagues, hockey clinics, and city-run skating and hockey programs. It's an older arena that could use some sprucing up, but it makes up for that by being open (with ice) year-round and featuring FOUR rinks - no other Mississauga rink can compete other than Iceland arena (who also has 4 rinks and is open year-round). PROS: - ice open year-round - 4 rinks! - great skate sharpening in pro shop ​- pretty decent snack bar (when open) ​- plenty of good vending machines CONS: - minimal spectator seating (rink 3 & 4) - small/awkward player benches ​- fairly small change rooms ​- ​very cold (heaters only for home spectators) Full blog post & video review at: http://www.icedhockeyonline.com/arena-reviews/meadowvale-4-rinks-arena-mississauga

Sixteen Mile is the nicest hockey facility I've ever seen that can't sharpen skates. I play there…read morein Rec league every Monday. I ask every year. They just keep saying "we don't have skate sharpening, we used to". I can drink there, I can eat there, I can play hockey on 4 ice pads. But I can't buy a roll of tape or sharpen my skates. They're still using Covid as an excuse. Absolutely brutal. My hometown rink that had holes in the roof could sharpen skates, Sixteen Mile is really making me go to the mall to get it done...

I've been coming here for 1 year and a few months so far, and I've had no problems with this place. The washrooms are super clean too, and there are women's and men's washrooms on the floor of the athletes entrance and another set of washrooms upstairs I believe across the restaurant. Another thing that's great about this place is that it gives parking for the players. It's super convenient for guys having to carry their hockey bags from their cars. Walking in from the entrance leads straight to the hallway of the change rooms. In addition, if you do choose to sit and watch the games the areas of the chairs are fairly warm then other arenas I've been too, but you'd still need a sweater or something of that sort. Ample parking for both guests and parking 2 sets of washrooms upstairs and downstairs Restaurant upstairs that overlooks the rinks Elevator makes it wheelchair Accessible

The Bentway is a public space under the Gardiner Expressway. You'll see it when you drive along…read moreFort York Boulevard, between Strachan Avenue and Bathurst Street, across from the Fort York National Historic Site. I have driven by this area many times this year. I did a few times when going to Coca-Cola Coliseum for Marlies and PWHL Toronto (now Sceptres) hockey games. Last night, I passed by it heading to Queen Elizabeth Theatre for a concert. I remember when this space was used for parking during the Canadian National Exhibition (The Ex). It was affordable back in the day. You basically parked on the grass, paid for parking, and walked over to the Princess Gates. Good times. Parking for The Ex is atrocious these days. It's better to take the TTC, mainly because this parking space is gone and it's cheaper than shelling out over $30. If you are looking for parking near The Bentway, you've got a couple of Green P options: - 250 Fort York Boulevard - 800 Fleet Street Paying through the Green P app is convenient. If you need to extend your parking stay, it's easy to do through the app than physically returning to the parking machine to pay for parking. The Bentway is popular in the wintertime. It becomes a skating rink where you can rent skates, skate till your heart's content, and grab some hot chocolate. In the summertime, it becomes a rollerskating party every month. You can rent skates, grab a bite to each from food trucks, and visit a few market vendors. I am looking forward to Dominoes. It's basically a community-building activity of laying down giant dominoes along a 2.5 km path through a number of downtown neighbourhoods. They are cutting through The Bentway. The domino run is scheduled for September 22 (tomorrow). It sounds like a lot of fun! The downside is that traffic is horrible in this area. There was a concert and an Argos game at Exhibition Place yesterday. Cutting through this area to get there was painful. When there aren't a lot of activities in the area, The Bentway is a calming, fun place. Otherwise, pack some patience! (371)

*** Avoid Skate Sharpening Booth ***…read more The lady who smokes did a terrible job sharpening my new skates. I had to get them re-sharpened at SportChek for $7 (16 and Woodbine) where they had to re-sharpened my blades. The staff was surprised at how terrible they were considering I had purchased them this year. Skate rental is available but I'd recommend just saving up and buying your own (even used in kijiji) skates. I'd be weary on those rental skates given how terrible the lady screwed up my blades. *** Indoor area not available *** Due to the pandemic, the small indoor area is closed off to the public. So you'll need to change your skates outdoors on the wooden benches. Occasionally there is a staff there but this rink is mostly unsupervised. You're not supposed to be figure skating / practicing hockey moves, but no one is there to enforce it. *** Environment *** The stairs to get to the rink are poorly lit. There's currently a Christmas tree at the entrance but the stairs are not lit at all. They need to fix the lamppost or install new lights bc it's dark enough you can't see people when going down the stairs and might hit / step on a kid playing in the area. There are no lockers / storage available so be sure to travel light and leave your bulkier items in the car. No access to heating area or washrooms. The theatre next door may be open but not sure about welcoming guests to use the facility. Best to drive across the plaza to the washrooms at a restaurant like McDonalds. *** Skating Rink *** Rubber floor mats are limited facing the side of the Civic Centre building where the benches are located to change. It would be better if mats were expanded all around the rink along with additional benches. This would help reduce the crowding and close contact of others during this pandemic. Shaped more like an oval than a circle or rectangle, it's a decent size for skating when it's not too busy. I do find the ice to be uneven / dented / marked up even after the zambino has cleaned the ice. During the evenings, lights are available along with dated 2000s music on repeat. I've been coming here for years and it's still the same, so of course I'd be bored of the music. Bring your earphones to keep yourself entertained.

Its not the most exciting game, but it definitely is a social game, and will allow you to meet some new people. Just remember to dress up as its cold out there, and wear shoes that are clean, otherwise you mark up the ice.
