Diverse music!!!.This establishment doesn't look like a nickel has been reinvested since it was built. The foot ware is definitely original to the building very uncomfortable. read more

It's like being in the 90s again. I hope whoever buys it doesn't do too much to it. Obviously new carpet, better tables, and faster food would be nice. I'd buy it if I could just to keep it going. My daughter loves going there to skate and we live probably 25 minutes away. read more

So I'm 13 and I had my brother drive me there pretty much I knew my ride was about to get there so I turned in the rental skates and was talking to some of my friends and an employee came behind me and kicked me out because I didn't have skates on read more

This was my first time visiting and it was for a work function so the rate was different. My first thought was Smithfield should have a skating rink because it's a nice old classic town and the two deserve to be together. Reminds me of where I grew up and visiting the local skating rink on Fridays is what we did as teens. I arrived at night and the parking lot is lit so that's a good start! You walk in to a entry full of doors. I went to the first window where a person was sitting whom directed me through another door to the actual rink. The place is very spacious. The first thing I see is a video game area located in the middle of the floor. You can also see the skating rink as well as the concession area. You turn in your sneakers for some wheels. I like this for several reasons. There is no clutter of shoes in the walkway and shoes are right where you left them. The concession area had quite a few booths and tables to sit in. The prices were reasonable and the variety was typical of fast food. Pizza, fries, soda and pretzels to name some items. There was music, lights and games offered during our skate night and I did enjoy myself. I wod love to go back with my family again. You know the more times you go the better you get, right? Just like riding a bike. read more

Smithfield Skate - Skates available for all ages and sizes! - Skating Rinks Near Me - Smithfield, Virginia

See all

Nice folks & a fun place to go. Had a neighborhood skating party there and skating fee was reasonable , pizzas and ice cream were great and everyone had a great time . Then my husband and I had a nice skate during the adult skate time. I personally would have liked a greater variety of music ( different genres) with fast and slow rhythms. But overall truly enjoyed myself the times I've gone! So get out & skate! read more

This place is okay. To be honest, the roller blades and skates are garbage. All 4 pairs I tried either didn't buckle, the padding was fall apart, or they just didn't fit (no half sizes). The rink isn't terrible, but it's obvious that it's minimally maintained to keep it just good enough. Decent enough for a kids birthday party, but I doubt I'd just go to just go. read more

I don't know many places that have a skating rink, so the fact that this is here at all is great. It was super fun when I was a kid, although I found it kind of grimy even then. I'd love to hang out there more often, but the main customers seem to be young children. It's not all bad, glad kids have a place to hang out, but as far as I can tell, there's no spot in town for teenagers. The general layout has always been my favorite part, the check-in lobby in great, a good shoe/skate exchange system in place, the rink itself is spacious with good lights, and the food and gaming areas are a great addition. My main two complaints are the cleanliness and narrow demographic. Between my observations and horror stories from friends who used to work there, it's the kind of place where you'll want a full shower if you trip and fall on the floor (not the best to wear skates on) and the food quality is dodgy at best. Tasty, but some previous employees have told me about mold in the ice machine. This actually leads into my next thought, which is that cleanliness of the place is really only something most people notice when they're older. The place is crawling with little kids, and as such feels more like a Chuck-E-Cheese than a general hangout. They really only play the same types of music, which might not be best to attract an older crowd. A roller disco night might remedy this, or other themed days to vary the music and this the age group. With all the athletically minded kids in Smithfield, I have no doubt the roller rink would be more popular with teenagers if it was a little cleaner and was a bit more diverse in music choice. read more

The floor is nicer than many in the area, and feels like glass! Very welcoming for beginners, and prices are great! During Covid you have to wear a mask while skating just like every other rink. It's a small-town place and people are friendly and helpful. The read more

Cheap place to go to for fun. 3 stars because the only two pairs of size 13 skates not being used both had worn right sub soles that made skating painfull. First pair was missing a nut to secure a rivet that was sticking out. Second pair had a ridge line of leather on the left side of the heel. The skate trade-in person tried to help but there was nothing more he could do. read more

Kinda dark in there which isn't a bad thing. Can be hit or miss. But people are pretty friendly and food is decent. Would recommend. Btw kids should be supervised read more

The one thing going for this place is that it is the closest skating rink to Suffolk. I cant remember the pricing but it is fairly cheap. The place is pretty disgusting and needs to be updated. Where do I start. The skates and roller blades are horrible. Every pair of skates I get there either dont roll or they dont roll straight. The food is horribly bad and bad for you. The entire place needs to be cleaned including the food area and the bathrooms. Almost all of the video games are too old or they are broken. Probably the best thing about the place is that I saw a batting cage outside and the actual rink is in pretty good shape. Not sure if they have the money to update the space, but it needs it. My kids dont really know the difference but I would think that they could at least clean the place up. Also, the kids that work there are not helpful or very nice to the young children. Disappointing. read more

Not bad for a "hole in the wall" skating rink. I say hole in the wall because well, it's Smithfield. Sure the awning could use some repairs and it's not the most updated place you could ever go to but it's ROLLER SKATING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Picture me raising the roof, saying whoooo whooooo with some zapp and roger playing in the background right now) So.....they have a batting cage outside, currently not open. Not sure if it's seasonal or due to the current snow, so call to check out the hours for that. They have roller blades and old school skates so that's a plus. I myself prefer 4 wheels. I'd bust my arse on blades.....shhhhhh, don't tell anyone. There's a small area with video games and a snack bar. Typical for a rink. During the time we were there, they had the standard intermissions with a limbo game and a 4 corners game. Done, of course, to break up the monotony of skating in circles. Aaaaaaaah just like I remember back in the day. The highlight though, was the older gentleman that worked there....he had skating moves like a gazelle and was real friendly. Made me laugh on more than three occasions. read more

Not to many skating facilities around anymore. This a very clean facility and have been around for years. Have a small game room area and snack bar. Nice way to have a family afternoon or evening with the kids. read more

Great place for a kid's birthday party. My 11 year old invited all of his friends and they all had a blast. The price was very reasonable and we didn't have to worry about pretty much anything, they had the room already set up for us with with everything that was needed: plates, napkins, cups, 2 pizzas, and 2 pitchers of drinks for the kids. They would provide invitations and everything else needed. The birthday party deal even included 20 locally made cupcakes that were delicious! I would recommend bringing a hand sanitizer and extra napkins to have in the room, just so it will make things easier when the attendant is not there. I would definitely recommend it! We were impressed with the overall quality and value for the money spent, aside from the kids having a great time. read more

NOT WORTH YOUR TIME OR MONEY I had to pick my daughter up last night after 45 minutes of a 4 hour skating session due to junk equipment and rude employees. After changing her rental skates twice due to wheels that were so out of round, she was told that they would not exchange again and that she COULD NOT take her skates OFF until after 10:30 due to a new company policy. This is a policy implemented due to kids running around in there rather than skating. So, let me get this straight. She paid to rent the skates that were so trashed that they are useless. She was rudely told that she couldn't take them off, because instead of disciplining the kids that were running around, they implement a ridiculous rule that punishes all. When I spoke to the manager about the skates, Her response was "they are rental skates, what do you expect?" She was also unwilling to refund any of her money. This use to be a nice clean rink and was a great place for kids to spend an evening. Due to the rude employees, poor management, and the total lack of maintenance on the facility or equipment, it is really not worth your time or money. read more
