I think People that have given this place a bad review need to get a life...This is an old school roller rink run by old school Pasadena Locals..The price is fair and reasonable about $10-11 with skates.. The general pop is now spoiled with corp run businesses with a chuck e cheese attitude. The staff is friendly enough and if you were asked to follow rules then you were most likely breaking them..They will not stand by like a servant for your pizza party and hold your hand...You might need some commen sense a little organizational skills of your own to hold a bday party here..But it will be well worth it..and a much needed break from the cookie cutter bounce house- chuck e cheese bday parties that have been so overdone even my 6 year old doesnt want to go anymore..Dont like the bathroom...Here is an idea for you...Bring some clorex wipes and paper towels. lol What a bunch a babies

Do Not Reccommend! I had my daughters birhday party here over the weekend. IT was very unorganized. When we arrived, i was handed tickets and was given no further direction. Next thing we know, they are calling our party back to the table for cake. I asked the guy (who is very arrogant and rude) where the pizza was and he said no one ordered it. Apparently they are supoose to ask you in the beginning if you want pizza added to the party. I ordered 2 pizzas which are just frozen pizzas for $16 each and a pitcher of soda for $8.75. When a guest of mine asked for an extra cup, she was told she had to pay $1.75 for a cup to drink the soda that I bought for my party. That is just ridiculous!! I will never have another party here ever! And as long as the arrogant guy is still working there, we will never return there for skating either.

I have to say in 40+ years of skating I have never been so disappointed in a roller rink as I was with this one. The price to get in was simply outrageous! Then you walk through the door hoping that your entry fee was worth the investment you make for a family night out, Once inside the door your disappointment starts to mount. The floor in the common areas was filthy from the first step all the way through farthermost reaching corner. I walked in with clean wheels on my skates and within 5 feet was covered in a nasty film and pieces of things that indicate that they use a Big Lots vacuum reject. Then you start listening for music and realize it is coming from omnidirectional speakers tucked in the ceiling that appears to be driven by a home stereo amp. "OK, the kids really want to skate" I keep telling myself. After repeatedly cleaning my wheels from the nasty floor we get on the rink floor itself. This is a floor that is in need of serious care and maintenance. It was as dirty as the common areas and looked like it was never completely finished, It actually had the appearance of a wood floor that was left out in the weather. Their rental skates are in poor condition and from what I saw are not disinfected when returned. Wheels and laces were in such poor condition it's no wonder people had trouble skating in them.



Now for the fun part: A little sawed-off man in a traditional referee shirt comes up to me and says " You're going to have to leave...We don't allow black stoppers here"! WHAT??? I guess he thought I was one of his teenagers that he could talk to any way he pleased. I argued that my stoppers were high grade and never left a mark on a poly or wood flooring anywhere I had been. He got more arrogant as he opened his mouth and more annoying the longer he breathed air. Another employee came to the rescue and made note that I had stopped using my toe stops right in front of them and guess what, NO MARKS! "The manager has this policy because of marks on the floor", You mean the floor that looks like it belongs in a stable rather than a roller rink??? He relented and said we can talk to the manager. The manager was another piece of work. Arrogant, condescending, and there you find where the little referee gets his attitude from.



Spend your money at another rink that takes care of the facility and it's clientele. Pasadena Skate Center fails miserably in both areas! If you want a pig sty to skate in at an overpriced run down facility, the Pasadena Skate Center is a great fit for you!

The best part of this place is the floor. It is very large, well maintained, and they use roll on so it is not slippery. Everything else is fair from the snackbar to the rentals. Great place for a family visit or a weekend night spot for teens.
