Nicely run rink. I booked in advance and appreciated that the friendly staff were ready with the proper sized skates for my larger group without my having to restate. The rink is not large but in a fun location, surrounded by shops and restaurants. Cute penguin-shaped assists were available for younger/newer skaters. Every so often skaters were asked to exit for a few minutes while a zamboni cleaned up the ice. It seemed well-organized. Parking was easy, not expensive, and close by. Skates weren’t totally comfortable but I think that might be inherent, not situational. :) Would go again.
The venue is nicely decorated, and they play fun Christmas music as you skate. There are lots of food options and parking is fairly easy to find. But their rental skates are so awful, it makes it hard to enjoy any of it. If they were able to get some better rental skates or if you can bring your own, then it would be awesome
They allow walk-in visitors but will charge more if you do not make a reservation online (even if there is no one on the rink). They don't accept cash. It's pretty pleasant and it's generally safe but sometimes the ice is not smooth.
I arrived at 6pm on a Monday and the ice was extremely choppy--big gouges all over. Very dangerous. It was like skating on a river bed. I asked the manager when the next cleaning was and he said 7pm. I asked if he would consider cleaning the ice earlier and he said no because there are only a few skaters on the ice right now. I didnt understand that logic and asked him to explain. He became very sarcastic and argumentative right in front of the other employees, saying, "Well, everybody else out there looks happy." So I guess I either have to deal with a crowded rink or choppy ice. I specifically came on a Monday to avoid crowds. He also refused to give me a refund saying, "We don't give refunds." All 4 employees were just sitting there doing nothing and they couldnt make an exception for a customer who asked politely. I am so disappointed. This was my favorite place.

A good size quality outdoor rink, well maintained by the zamboni, and lots of skating aids for new starters. Tickets get you two hours of skating time which is great value for money. Easy to recommend.
What a lovely setting for this outdoor activity. Pentagon Row is a wonderful space to to have an outdoor rink. Lots of restaurants, shopping and people watching. The staff at the rink are fabulous. Ethan, both Olivias, Cartrell and Julian were FABULOUS as usual. Been here numerous times and its always a pleasure. They keep a watchful eye out and are vigilant in their duties. Bring Gloves, warm clothes, long socks and a fun attitude. Be sure to tighten the skates around the ankles to avoid injury. Lots of newbies on the ice, so try not to run them over. Most important of all....
HAVE FUN!

Great place for kids. Staff is friendly and helpful. They are always watching out for people that fall and they help them up. Prices are pretty good too. 28 dollars for skate rental and skating for 2 people. Overall I highly recommend if you're looking for an outdoor skating rink.
