Southern Skates Roller Rink

It's city owned and it's not taken care of. Very raggedy sound system. No djs. Most quit due to condition of the rink . Sad. Great staff.

Not a bad rink to skate, however the music isn't great. They play hip-hop the whole time. It's like the same song in a different font, just not good Skating music. It isn't packed though so there was a lot of space but also a lot of kids.

Not a bad skate rink. Just like many skate rinks you have to enjoy it for what it is. Looks Black owned and operated which is great. Went on a Saturday afternoon which is great for anyone learning. Only suggestion - the skates need to be upgraded. They need insoles because I cut the bottom of my foot on the pin holding the blade together from the boot. Long story short bring your own skates.

Nice waxed / shiny floors Decent skates Current hip hop music Clean Spacious My mom and I had so much fun! Definitely recommend.

I enjoy Southern Skate. It is a throwback to my childhood in St. Louis with DJs that spin primarily soulful offerings with a sound system that is more than adequate. Adult nights on Thursdays are a toss up. It can be fairly quiet or can be packed with little elbow room. I've yet to eat the food, so I cannot vouch for the service. The cleanliness is average and does depend on crowd and demographics. Children are kept in check for the most part. The only wall to grab is up front. Not a bad place to skate...

I booked my 40th, 90's themed birthday party here. I was able to bring in my own food and beverages. I rented the space so my guest and I had the entire rink to ourselves. We had a DJ, two host and security. The staff was superb, the DJ accommodated my 90's music request and we was given an additional 30 mins. The evening was perfect.

Visited for an evening event and had a lot of fun. Skating took me back to my childhood days and reminded me of how the simple things can be so much fun. Clean facility (although I did not visit the restroom so I can't rate that area). Music was loud, but you are able to have a conversation with your friends. If you can't skate and want a "rail on skate", then it is $5 to rent one. They probably do this to discourage the teens from playing with then but that is a disservice to the parents of smaller children who are trying to build confidence with skating. Staff was very helpful with friendly customer service. Will come back again to get my skate-on. BTW - As a bonus, if you are leaving to head North into Dallas on 45, check out how beautiful The City is from the South!

Don't let the outside fool you, this is a nice place on the inside. The staff was nice and helpful too. My boyfriend and I went to the adult only open skate and it was fun! However, if you're bad at skating don't come during this time because everyone there is excellent at skating! Would have given 5 stars, but the music was incredibly loud.

I had fun, but I wouldn't go unless you want to keep an eye out for your property 24/7. I put my sneakers in the cubby towards the far end because there wasn't a any people down there. A bunch of kids decided to sit there after one was doing rounds on the cubbies, looking in. While skating I watched this one girl swoop my sneakers out the cubby with flip flops and started to put her feet in there. I immediately stormed off the rink and confront her. Told the security guard and she didn't nothing. It seemed to be the girls mother or guardian. I don't recommend

Just had my 40th bday party here! Was able to rent the entire rink on a FRIDAY night! Hands down the staff was AMAZING! Janet was so helpful and polite! I even called because I was running late to take a look at the rink and she stayed late just to show me around and answer all my questions! If you want to have a skate party... You've found the spot!!!
