Not as cold as other rinks- came in 3 layers and had to take them all off. I could've worn shorts and a tank top and I would have been fine.
Visit the Pro Shop for hockey equipment, figure skating apparel and skate repair.
The new bar provides a warm place to enjoy a nice glass of wine or beer without missing the on ice action.

I can only speak from the standpoint of a hockey Mom. We visited for a weekend of games. Plenty of parking! Bar/food on site. Pro shop on site! Stadium seating in front of rink. Tables, chairs, stools on the upper level. We found this facility to be much warmer and didn't need our coats/blankets. If you're a photographer I highly recommend the upper level. I was able to snap 150 shots that are excellent quality! (Just play with your settings; I found TV mode to be best-adjust white balance and ISO) I am by no means a professional, but I love taking sports photos. And these were some of my best! Such a clear view of the rink/players!I am not a fan of how they choose the refs for games. I'll keep that off Yelp...so much I want to say!My son said the ice here is better than Charleston but he still prefers his home rink. Understandable of course; Home is always Home

Rink is NHL sized so slightly smaller than Olympic but still great. Went on a public session during the day on purpose so that there would be less people. Ice was clean but is weirdly hard? Not as smooth as other rinks I've skated at. Price is a little bit steep but nothing crazy for 3 people skating. Overall had a friendly environment :) would come again

We are regulare here as a grandson and granddaughter play on hocky teams on the rink. This snack bar has really come along over the last few years and is now a very nice operation.They sell beer and wine along with soft drinks and they have recently expanede their menu. It is far more than junk food.French fries are excellent. They are, I think, the twice-fried variety whereby the fries are lightly cooked in oil and then recooked to bring on a well cooked, lightly colored, potatoe that taste very good. You can do the ketchup thing or have some ranch dressing or BBQ sauce with them.I had a hamburger ($14) and it was well worth the price as it included fries. The meat is 100% beef and is a thick patty, cooked well, but now charred or overdone. It was really good.We had all five of our grandchildren with us and they gobbled down quite a variety of food. The bartenders are friendly and you can pay with card or cash and they will run a tab for you, as they did for us. And you never miss the hockey taking place on the ice 10 feet away.

My niece and nephew were in town for two weeks. With a teen and pre-teen it was important to find a few summer activities that would get them moving while also being Covid safe. Taking them to skate for an hour or so at Pineville Ice House was the perfect midday activity. The staff was polite, the process was streamlined from start to finish, and we weren't overcrowded. If you are still taking precautions and wearing masks it was perfect for a summer activity since our face coverings kept us cool while on the ice. This location is spacious with lots of seats to take breaks if you e got Bambi legs like I do, and I'd def it ring them back since the place was clean and felt safe.

With a good low rate of $7.50 for entry and $2.50 for skate rental this is arguably the best option for a first-time ice skater in the Charlotte area. The Pineville Ice House, as it is better known, is great fun with the kids, a group, family, for a birthday party and most other stuff you think of doing at your standard roller-rink except the kicker is that it's on ice!I've made it here a number of times including once with a big group for a [dangerous] game called broom ball. In broom ball, the players clad only in their everyday clothes and without ice skates, go out on the ice with a broom-like stick to swat at a ball until makes it into the other team's goal. All the while you spend most of your time trying not to throw yourself off balance with a misplaced swing and land yourself in the hospital with a concussion. But hey! This review isn't meant to trash ice skating. Only the futile and foolish game of broom ball.Nonetheless, PIH is a good starting point for you up-and-coming figure skaters out there. The main advice I have is to just check their website as they have some oddly specific hours during which they are open to the public for skating. Watch out for the kids and remember to dress warm and always fall with closed hands or you'll take home less fingers than you brought.

Went here last month for my youngest nephew's birthday and it was lots of fun. It's not that expensive either. He had a blast and the adults can join in the fun too if they want. If you love ice skating or wanna learn then this place is for you.

the Youth hockey here is absolute joke, poorly run. The hockey director Jared Gaudette is a difficult person to deal with to put it mildly. He's only concerned with putting as many kids on the ice as possible rather than creating a competitive program. If you're looking for free skate, this place is fine, but if you want your kid to face any level of competition and develop in the sport this place is terrible and the folks running it and the coaching are pretty pathetic.
