Kelly Outdoor Rink: what do users think?
Erica Holm: this place is an absolute treasure ♥️♥️♥️
Carlos Lopez: It's a small ice rink, but there is no entry fee, free parking, and skate rentals are cheap, $3. Its free if you bring your own skate. Skate rental due hurt the feet, but not all of them have tried different places they are a little better then some of the places i have been to. If you get cold theres a warm room and there are restrooms. Can get semi busy but family friendly. Might not be easy to spot due to its location but if you are around the area not a bad spot.
Rikki O'Hagan: This rink is so close to my family's house. It's so nice to have access and teach the kids to skate on a budget.
Casey Lu: Love this local ice skating rink! Free if you have your own skates, or only $3 for rentals. The train is right there so at times really noisy but such a good find for people who want to skate!!! Will be back regularly I hope
Timothy H: No admission and cheap rentals, this place is great for family outings on the budgetThey could use the Zamboni more often because the ice can get rather poor but it’s a public park so I guess that’s to be expected
Parsa Ayoubi: good
natedawg6393: 3/14/2021Closed. Website says open to 25 skaters at a time. Drove all the way there. Empty.Kids were sad.
Jongchan Park (JC): This place is perfect for playing ice skating with your kids. It's free skating, and you can rent a skate very economical price. 2$ for kids and 3$ for grown ups. Only you should count on waiting due to COVID restriction. 25 people at one session. Each session periods 2 hrs. Check their website first.I'll definitely visit again in next winter!
Khyati Girdhar: Everything was good. Because of covid it's long waiting time
Sherri T: It's a nice free outdoor skating rink for the kids but the skate rental hurt my feet & the ice was auntie rough. But overall, I had a great time with family. THANK YOU!
Matthew Hicks: If you're thinking of coming during school vacation week, please note that the rink is expected to be very busy.During COVID-19 there have been some changes.There is a strict limit of 25 people allowed inside the gate per session on a first come first serve basis.The sessions begin at 12pm (except Saturday -2pm), 2pm, 4pm, and 6pm. Once 25 people are inside the gate is shut and no admittance mid-session even if people leave, in order to reduce the amount of contact between guests and to be able to sanitize the chairs and bathrooms as well as Zamboni the ice between every 25 people.A line starts forming on the sidewalk near the entrance. First 25 people in line will be admitted per session.This is a FREE rink if you have your own skates (wicked cheap rentals also) and these are the rules the staff have been ordered to follow. Please be understanding.
Angelica Scott: Great place to skate! Can be busy and hard to get in sometimes!
Cody Sensenig: Seems like a great place to skate and the rental skates don't look bad. However, they do run in 1h 45m shifts starting every 2 hours. It doesn't say this on the website (at least that I could see), but they most likely won't let you in unless you come right before the next shift. Just something to pay attention to when making plans about coming here.
Jim Harvey: Get there early with the capacity restrictions
Jonathan Mast: Please note that there is a 25 person limit on the rink due to covid. A new batch of skaters can enter every 2 hours. It would be advisable to get there about 20 to 25 minutes before the next opening to get a spot in the line. They count the first 25 people in line 15 minutes prior to the next time slot.
Philip Peterson: Great community resource
Brandon Maiden: Ice was great, staff was cool. Can't beat free. Will definitely return.
Anastasia Friar: Good place. Ice can be very rough when weather is warm so make sure to go when its under 45 degrees. Ice could be zambonied more often though.
Noel Brinkley: Outdoor rink in funky JP. They have time regulated sessions so get there early as they're limiting the rink to 25 skaters in order to maintain social distancing.
Sean Flaherty: I'm forced to give stars but I really just want to give information. It is December 30th 2020 during covid-19. There is a limit of 25 people at a time on the ice. I believe you're allowed an hour and 30 minutes to skate. Everyone gets off and they sanitize and clean the ice and then the next group of 25 gets to go on. I was there on the 29th at 12:20 and I was told we had to wait till 2:00 before anyone from the next group to get on the ice. Even if someone leaves before the hour and a half they don't allow a new group in. If you are planning to skate here know that you are likely going to have a long wait.
Michael Yarow: Excellent great fun!!!

Steriti Memorial Rink: what do users think?
Kimmi Driscoll: Great activity for all. The rink is well kept, and skate rentals were decent.The only major issue was that the rink guards were not really enforcing safety - there were a lot of kids laying on the ice and getting in the way of skaters.
Robin Beaulieu: I finally made it over this past Sunday, 3/6/23, from the West End of Boston. Had wanted to skate before in February, but they were closed for Super Bowl Sunday. Arrived @5:00pm & skated til almost closing @6:45p. First time on skates in twenty years. Didn't fall once because the ice was cleaned every 45-50 minutes. The staff were very helpful & the skate rental/concessions attendant ladies were kind (one in particular). I had a great time all by myself. The group was intergrade w/ families, teen-age, & college age peeps, LGBTQ-2 friendly, a rainbow 🌈 of ages & nationalities. Most people were considerate of other less experienced skaters, w/ a few exceptions. The ice rink monitors were 'very chill, & loved seeing the stackable milk crates jerry-rigged w/ ice hockey skate laces. My only regret is that i didn't start attending earlier in the season. And 😲, rental & snacks all for $8. w/ tip! I felt like i was back in the '90's ;) Definitely going one more time before they close to the public for the season. It took me less than an hour to get my 'skate legs' back. I'm a fan!
Sita Van: Great rink. Always fun.
ahish chinnu: Great place for ice skating. Cheapest fairs to rent a pair of skates and a large well maintained open rink to practice ice skating.
Erik Paulsen: This was absolutely awesome
raj pathak: Jic
Kofi Boateng: This is a well-sized rink and spacious rink. I recommend going there during the early hours of the free skate sessions. Skates are $5 CASH ONLY, skate sharpening are $5, and they sell snacks as well. It overlooks parts of Charlestown and is well lit during the day and night. They also have crates for children and beginners. Hight recommend. Just a 4-5 minute walk from TD garden/North Station.
Copira: Blew my expectations. When I was visiting Boston, I already knew what city center ice rinks were like from my experience in New York. But the rink was clean, the skate rental prices were more than reasonable, and the rink itself wasn't crowded at all. I went on a Saturday night, mind you. The rink is a great place to check out if you want to ice skate after a long day exploring the city.
Priyanka Desai: Awesome skating rink. As a beginner I found the timings and price very reasonable for public. They have it open for public on weekends which is very convenient.
Raghavendra Mujumdar: Amazing ice rink that’s open to the public for free at certain hours. They offer paid classes for beginners. This facility is close to North End T station.
Krusti Krusti: great cheap place to skate all time you want
BlondSpock: Great facility for free public skating. Snack shack is cash only, but otherwise it’s a great spot for free public skating.
Paggy Lin: It was a fun experience. The ice was nicely shaved when I went there on a tuesday from 12p-3p. It was also a decent price. You can bring your skates and get on the ice or you can pay for $5 for skate rental. Ice skating is free. Very nice price will come back here again. There may be a lot of kids from school and little kids learning how to skate. So it’s like for beginners but also have to watch out for the others. It is also accessible through the train station. Parking is hard to find if you’re lucky enough you can park right on the same street as the skating rink. The street cleaning you need to watch out for the hours. If not park somewhere close to Regina’s Pizza which is only a 5 min walk from the rink. North end of Boston, will come back soon!!!
rafael paes: We went to this place this week to do ice skating and it was wonderful!The place works from 3 p.m. to around 6 and you can go there do skate for free.You can bring your skate or you can rent a ice skate for 5 dollars.The place is very organized and they stop sometimes to clean the ice!They also can provide boxes to help people who don't know to skate yet.The have place to eat/drink inside of the place and is not to far from north station t station.
Fredrick Pelletier: Come on down for public skating. Ice is great and a great view of the North End while you skate . Get a bite to eat and a hot chocolate. Yes there is skate rentals for the public. There's a Bocce court too.
Nightmare: Friendly staff.
Timothy H: Wonderful public rink, no cost of admission and five dollar skate rentalsSkates here are much better maintained than the ones in the outdoor rinks at DCR Kelly
Vivian Cunha: I LOVE coming here. $5 skate rentals, the arena is huge and just no hassle at all. There's restrooms, rest areas and even a little shop to buy snacks at.
Stuff I Find Interesting: Very nice place, beautiful scenery. Inexpensive.
Edwin Dou: Only 5 dollars for skate rent and you can skate until it closes. Not to mention the nice view of the harbor and refreshments from the store beside the rink. Definitely worth coming for!
STACE: Nice and spacious ice rink! Bring an ID and $5 in cash for skate rental!

The Skating Club of Boston: what do users think?
Chris Murphy: First time visitor to the club for open public skate. We called ahead to confirm we could rent one of the skate assist units for our toddlers to use (first time on the ice for both of them) and we were reassured that if we arrived early, we could claim one for our session. We arrived 20-25 min early and all skate assist units were already “reserved” for a private birthday party. We get out on the ice with my two little ones and the birthday party is using the only 5 skate assist units as ride on toys pushing each other around at high speeds and messing around - all kids were 8+ year olds. Please fix this - discourages us from wanting to come again/peruse any lessons or courses from your location.
Mary: It is the best place to take your kids for ice skating classes. Both group classes and private classes are available.There are also some charging stations available in the parking lot.
Bruce Barnett: Exceptional facility for folks who love ice skating.
Kelly Angelo: I thought it was great went for the National Excel Skating Competition. We all had a great time. I didn't realize how big this place is. I found pictures of my cousin from his high school hockey days back in the 60's. This place is amazing
Tom Tom: Beautiful facility showing dedication to figure skating first. Wonderful.
Joshua Jadwin: Only a review of Skating Academy Boston. Not the skating club as a whole. Very disappointed. Tried for two classes. Save your money and take the kids to open/family skate and teach them yourself. Would not recommend for novice skaters under 6 years old (maybe this is too young to teach skating for most kids anyhow) . Nevertheless, the actual instructors seemed to have little training. Some did not know how to encourage or talk to young children. The teacher to student ratio was insufficient. A supervising on ice instructor was abrupt and and borderline mean to my little guys. Class felt haphazard (Evan more than usual for a class of 4 year olds). No effort for the type of imaginative play that I've seen with soccer and swimming classes for kids of the same age. There were different instructors each week which makes it tough for kids trying something new.
walid makouk: Best in the east
松村達郎: このスケートクラブはアメリカの中でも100年以上続く名門クラブでスケートリンクを3年前に新設しました。リンクが3面ある施設を誇り2022年のスケートアメリカを開催しました。驚くべきは、この施設をボストンスケートクラブが所有していることです。
Todd Nichols: Beautiful Rink..
Eric Gagnon: The club is open! Everyone needs to wear masks, and only 10 skaters per session are allowed on the ice, and coaches need to stay on the boards, but the club is open and Triple Axel's are being practiced.
David Velepec: Went to visit the rink but we were told it was for members only and we were asked to leave. Maybe the women at the desk could of asked us if we were interested in a tour.
Tony R: Wish I could give 0 stars based solely on the utter buffoons that drive in and out of this place.
Mark Seu: This is the best figure skating club ever
Robert Allen (86Carrera): This is a beautiful facility to watch figure skating in. The seats are very comfortable. There is a good amount of parking. The facility is clean and kept up nicely.
Richard Fernandes: Beautiful place for skaters
Matthew Mattis: I will share my experience with the Skating Club of Boston. But, I would like to call out some reviews where I find it really pointless.Parking - Yes, they charge for parking because they need to maintain the building and make money. Try going to a concert or sporting events, they charge more than $15 to park!Eating - they have a small restaurant that makes a good amount of plates and there is an upstairs bar for members only. The only problem is that they tend to close earlier than the rink and it's expensive.Free ice - not sure what one member wants. But, complaint that there wasn't "open ice". Do you mean Public Skating? They have it on Fridays and Saturdays. If you're talking about pond ice, then make an effort to make one of your own and maintain it. Either that, move to Minnesota where they're are plenty of them there.Instructors - they will help your kid. But, they're your kid and your kid is more comfortable with you tying their skates or fixing gear. The Instructors are there to teach and will help if needed. It's not a daycare where you drop them off and leave. Seriously.Speed bumps - I agree that the speed bumps are very large and it's because idiots have sped and almost hit several people in the past. That's the reason they put it there. When it first opened, the bumps weren't there. But, after several close calls, they decided to make them. And, they made them bigger because the original design, people still sped through. So, if you're bottoming out, it means you're going to fast!As far as the facility, it's a nice facility, restaurant needs to match the hours of the rink and the store pretty much makes their own hours. Good luck trying to sharpen your skates if needed as you need to make an appointment and it could be days. Sometimes, they offer walk-ins. But, rarely. As far as the facility for training, it's great for elite skates. But, maybe too much for beginners/recreational. Some coaches tend to use the hallway and comfort areas, making it very irritating for parents waiting for their skaters or trying to squeeze in some work.
David W.: Nice and new looking rink but really wish they had better wifi since on their best day it's barely 1.5mbps. I also wish they put in a restaurant/bar like most new rinks these days have instead of just a snack bar. Last gripe is that they didn't build enough parking for events so they charge $15 for parking which is kind of crazy given that you already are buying tickets for the event/show...shouldn't that include parking since there is no other way to get there and it's in a very industrial area.
Gerry Gan: Incredible skating venue! ...and it's not freezing rinkside!
Vik K: Great place to skate with a group for fun, but not the best spot to practice any skills. Extremely crowded on weekends, the facilities are all new and clean. Beautiful second floor, with a library and lounge. Good place to take your kids, even beginners.
George Athanasiou: We had BOCH ICE and settled instead for this highly privileged skating club which to my knowledge doesn’t even have open ice for the public?? Great!!!Froggy's "pond" or Hartshorns Swail (park) which is a humongous field (that is below grade) Norwood fills with water every winter for the town to skate is a great alternative!...If only the weather would comply & stay frozen And then we wouldn’t need all these overprice skating rinks that have no time available for paid open ice.
Nagela Nukuna: Only the most incredible skate shop! I love it here - the staff is incredible, thoughtful, and knowledgeable. The facility in general is tremendous. Love this rink!

Jack Kirrane Ice Rink at Larz Anderson Park: what do users think?
Kevin Dowd: Outdoor rink with a snack bar, what more does one need.
Priyanka Desai: Nice open Ice Skating Rink. Plenty of place for parents to sit/wait around (inside & outside). One can also buy candy, snacks and cold drinks from the shop inside.
mustafees khan: This skating rink is at the top of the mountain. Great place for ice skating. Would definitely come back here when it's less crowded. The parking lot is not that big but I have seen folks who couldn't park in the dedicated spots to park on the side of the road.
Icibilbo 92: Beautiful place for skating
Elena Kladova: A beautiful place, not many people, very affordable prices. Very comfortable :) they have a zone for small kids who just started skating. Good hot chocolate as well :)
R Curt: Fantastic outdoor rink. There aren’t many left and I hope it sticks around for generations to come!
Beantown Billy: A S*×T show. Mask mandate wasn't even a concern of nearly everyone skating and no one said a thing. You have to change outside on the limited benches that had ice on them. Total trust system for your belongings. To get on the ice from the bench was all chopped up ice. The ice itself was wicked snowy after a very short amount of time and chopped up with grooves. No snack shack(due to covid) understandable, but come on, set up something.Wasn't thrilled at all after being so excited about going
Shafia G.: They need to have an adult working the front desk. The teenagers they have working at the front are very rude and made us feel unwelcomed. I brought my entire family there to skate and have a good time but unfortunately they were being very difficult and extremely racist.
Gavin Kleespies: It is worth mentioning that they are serious about the one hour time slot. After an hour, everyone has to get off the ice and leave.
Rose kiok-kirshenbaum: Really nice ice and large rink
Susan Silberman: Love it!
zweli Miller: You should go to an indoor rink because this one is on the top of a hill and it can rain or get windy and no one will feel sorry for you when you are cold despite everyone involved with the facility being absolutely wonderful people. New England winters are blustery. Also you have to book in advanced and it’s a bit difficult. If you’re ok with being exposed to the elements and booking in advance then you might find this rink to be the worlds most beautiful. No sharpening available this year. It’s recommended that you stay home
Gregory Piatetsky: Great outdoor skating, well organized
Zachary Miller: They had good ice skating. They trust their customers
Dan Mundis: It's a good outfdor rink
AngiX: Nice place every thing so affordable. Was very fun for everyone to adults and baby's
Lex: Had a lot of fun. Great staff.
Luke Boelitz: This is my favorite rink in the Boston area. Crowd tends towards experienced skaters which is nice. Very scenic. Of course it is outdoors so not always the best choice when weather is very cold. Admission and rentals are fairly cheap.
Kenneth Rouse: Beautiful location
Alicia Lee: Great place for ice skating! Quite well-maintained, it seems like they Zamboni every two hours or so. It also is really afforable, especially for students! The skates they rent out are quite dull, though, so it can be kind of scary to skate in them since they don't have a strong grip on the ice.
Theresa Maloney: Great day for outdoor skating!

Skate @ Canal District Kendall: what do users think?
kingsley st jean: That was a good experience, for first time trying ice skating, the space is not to big so that give every body whise trying ice skating cor the firat time to have a closer thing to stay on the for a little rest
Alain Bolaños: Buen ambiente. Chicos muy amables y serviciales. Me hicieron descuento porque me estacioné en un parking sin validación.
Christopher Fernandes: This rink is conveniently situated in Kendall Square close to restaurants and the T, and I enjoyed skating there. The skating throng is amiable and of all ages at night, when the lights create a lively mood.
Jane Hannah: Amazing location a reasonably priced, well-kept rink. There is a worker who skates like a sleek speed demon, and it is fascinating to see.
Lydia Chew: An outdoor ice skating rink during the winter. Tickets are $16 (includes skate rentals). They have both figure skating and hockey skates.The rink is smaller than the indoor ice skating rinks I'm used to, but comparable to other outdoor rinks. The view isn't as nice as the one at other Boston rinks (like the Frog Pond at the Boston Common or 401 Park at Fenway), but slightly cheaper to compensate.There are quite a few businesses nearby where you can get a hot drink or a bite to eat.
Joshua Soto: Awesome spot for a quick stake. Not too crowded and well maintained.
Michael Moussa: Can't beat the price
Laurie Lodge: Very attentive instructor, great experience!
Brian Foley: Staff was great - they made everything really easy (except for the skating itself, of course, but hopefully that'll come in time!)
Igor Toropov: Nice rink near office. Half size of standard hockey rink.
Raffi Raffi: OMG SO FUN MY CHILDHOOD LIFE WAS THERE ALWAYS
Maurice Karpman: Outdoor skating is fun, but rink is small and oddly shaped.
Scott Shedeck: Helpful and friendly staff, but small rink that gets super busy and chaotic
Tammy Wong-Bigelow: They are very nice and the prices are very reasonable. When the skates I bought online were hurting my feet, they allowed me to use their rental skates free. My 5 and 2.5 year olds had fun there.
Basak Ozer: My 5 year old took a lesson with Imani. At this age young when trying something new, connection is what matters the most, and the teacher makes a huge difference. Imani is gifted with little kids. My daughter felt comfortable, safe, had so much fun, and wants to try again. Imani was helpful answering lots of questions from us parents as well. thank you
Chris Mauri: Nice place to be outside on a warm winter day. All skill levels represented so great place for beginners to slide around.
Sarah Dewart: Excellent teachers. Great staff. Very clean and well run.
Katelyn Crossley: The staff and service here was above and beyond expected. They made sure that we had everything we needed and it was a wonderful day.
Heather Satterwhite: Such a fabulous local rink!
Keila Knobel: My 13 y.o. had her first ice skating lesson at the Skate @ Canal District Kendall and she had a great time
Theresa Vallese: I enjoyed skating in this rink which is conveniently located in Kendall Square near the T and food venues. During the night, the lights make the atmosphere festive, and the crowd that is skating is friendly and includes all ages.

Bay State Skating School: what do users think?
the notherone: I enrolled my kids at the Quincy location and they absolutely love it. The instructors are top-notch! They are very patient with my beginner 5 year old son. Both he and my 8 year old daughter look forward to going for skating lessons every week.
karthik swarna: Very up and down coaching. One day my kid was with 30 others and one teacher, the next day she was in a group of 4. The teachers seem to pick any one kid in random and stick to teaching them. Very bad experience.
Renee Moran: My 5 year old daughter was pulled off the ice after the manager told her her parents did not pay (though we had paid and had the receipt the week before). Our Nanny then explained how inapprorpriate this was to do to a child and the manager proceeded to be rude and insulting even after showing her the receipt confirmation. My husband went down the next week to follow up and discuss this and was treated with the same disrespect. She took no ownership or accountability that the error had been on her part, let alone bring a five year old child into the mix. Very disappointing.
Joseph Guerrero: My son takes classes at the Waltham site. He struggled to learn, but the instructors never gave up on him. They always encouraged him to keep trying. After awhile, he finally got it. He's so happy he can skate now. Though he'll never be great, he has fun and doesn't want to stop.
ana marino: My kids love taking lessons here!
Mike Galvin: Had a great experience with this school. Instructors are friendly and compassionate. Looking forward to next session.
GM MG: Most of the Bay State Skating instructors in Quincy, it seems, they are not well educated/trained. There is only one lady instructor In Quincy which was very kind and friendly, but unfortunately she is not working with the kids - she is training only adults. First, they do not know how to interact with the kids and/or parents, and second, they do not seem to have any passion for their work. I have the feeling that they are just waiting for the time to pass, and get the money for that day. Their language is very brutal with the kids, my daughter had to cry many times just because of the way they interacted with her. They don't have any kindness toward the kids, very cold people. I tried to approach one of the instructor to explain some of the needs my daughter may have, but she didn't show any kind of interest - her attitude was very cold toward us, she didn't show any kind of interest of learning about the needs of the kids. So disappointing!!!
Rakesh Sawant: Look out if your kid doesn't want to go after 2 times your almost 150$ are gone.It's not one on one class where they are dedicating one instructor for your child so .....If your child can stand up and and walk by himself with may be 5 % of instructor attention then go for it otherwise it's really waste of money as we did. Lots of people backed off after first class and got their money back as when we went for second time it was almost half the kids than the first time. It is really disappointing to know that they are not willing to give at least some refund if the kid is refusing and not at all succeeding and there is nobody who will make him feel comfortable or teach lovingly. Basically it is for kids who can do it by themselves with no or very minimal support. It was really disappointing experience , and we lost our hard earned money for nothing.
Jeremy Krantz: Headed there originally to get my skates sharpened and ended up finding a weekly pickup game for adults that I've since then taken a part of a few times.The rink itself is very well laid out and maintained very well. Nick, one of the people running the place is very friendly and was helpful in helping me network with some of the guys playing so I could eventually join them for a pickup game. All four locker rooms are as clean as they could ever be and are heated as well which isn't always the case.But more importantly the ice sheet is fantastic and makes playing hockey there a very enjoyable experience. This rink sets a high standard for other rinks in the Boston area for sure and I doubt that you'd be able to easily find a better one that this.Hockey aside, they have a ton of stuff happening there so check out their site for various hours. They have pickup games, high school games, stick and pucks, public skates and loads more.
EMama Boston: We paid $20 per class. No one taught my daughter to skate. My husband had to ask the "instructor" to get my crying little girl from the center of the rink, which she did and then she left her at the side of the rink and skated away! No instruction was given. This is a racket, do not send your child here.

Cronin Skating Rink: what do users think?
Liza Ivanova: Great for learning to skate at any level and age
Daniela Moreira: It is a good rink with nice staff. But it needs to be cleaned. The stands never are cleaned, if somebody pour some beverage, it dries there forever and so on. The bathrooms are always dirty.
Jason Juric: Great place for kids to learn to skate. Staff is friendly and it's very clean.
Nik Protasenia: Revere friday night hockey!!!!!!
novathepoet: Nice little skating in a small local place, decent food options. All in all a nice spot to ice skate
Ferchopaz Paz: Chelsea MA
Leslie Salter: It's a skating rink
Karen Shea: Great family night. Just maybe cleaner bathrooms
Mark Vlahos: Cars were broken into during game. Came outside to find windows smashed on someone's jeep.
Bria Yazic: The rink was a bit crowded and I felt that the two employees on the ice were a little young to be supervising everybody. But, they maintain the ice really well here, getting rentals is quick and easy, and I had a super fun time. Highly recommend as a date or family outing!
Víctor Abreu (RoadDogTS): Muy divertido y excelente servicio de alquileres, les recomiendo visitarlo.
Tom Pasquini: Nice rink. But it is a pain it the butt to get to.
Popeye: Clean locker rooms, nice smooth ice surface and nice warm room. New facility
jim beal: Excellent hockey rink, great ice, clean warm locker rooms
Lee Malo: CLEAN !!! It is a bit tricky finding the parking lot entrance and the parking is small . With that said the rink is up to date and has a snack bar for the spectators . The lobby is a good size with very large bench seating for everyone . The ice area is well lit and the ice is kept clean !
Skate Mom: The Cronin Rink is meticulously maintained. The rink manager is very professional and very attentive to all of Cronin’s customers. The ice is properly resurfaced at regular intervals and home to many local elite figure skaters.
Alexis Rivas: Great place for kids to learn how to skate
James Brooks: Nice place to bring your family!
Stephen Cruse: Rink is too warm. Ice is too soft
Daniel Goedike: Home of the Chambly/Revere-Everett international hockey Exchange!

Jim Roche Community Arena: what do users think?
Sarah McDonnell: It's a rink. Parking can be tight. 4❄️ Floor is a tripping hazard. Bathrooms, no latches, no water, no soap. Small seating only on one end.
L: Public ice skating on Saturday afternoon for $6 for a little under 2 hours of time on the ice. In case you need to borrow a pair of skates, rental ice skates are available for an additional $6. Friendly staff and clean facilities. Credit cards are accepted.
zhengyang liao: We came on Monday noon. My kids are So disappointed to know that they cancel all the Monday, Wednesday and Friday 12:00-1:50 public skating schedule in the next three weeks. Because they just rent it to other camp skating. This is just unacceptable because we have purchase the membership. Where is our right? Just shame on the people who making this decision and ignore all those public skating lover’s right.
Mountain Top Puffer Keeper: Great rink. nice ice. Friendly staff.
Rendo: Great staff, rink, and very clean
zhifeng Liu: Really good
instrumentalbytina: I was unaware it's too late to learn how to skate at the age of 20. They offer no skating lesson programs for people over 16 and do not accommodate for young adults. The staff working in the rental booth looked at me very sternly, and seemed annoyed when I asked them for information. They didn't know anything to provide service other than give you rental skates and just gave me a business card without polite manners. I went on the website and all the skating lesson programs that aren't hockey are only for ages 3-16. Traveling out of state to learn ice skating would be more worth it!
Paul Dzurec: High cost of rentals even for members. Why bother joining?
MaryAnn Corliss: Ample wait seating, clean locker rooms, at ice seating is limited. Cold rink.
Joseph Cazeault: they suck ! pay is terrible for the work expectations... Slave Labor stay away
Ivan Vukusic: Lauren works here and cause of that it's the best place around town! 👍
Bob Boyd: Very COLD
Michelle L: Love this place but they no longer seem to clean the ice before public skate and it's pretty torn up from hockey the hour before hand. Pretty dissapointing. They used to take good care of the ice for the public skating sessions.
Gwen Waluigi: Nice place to hang out with friends and family and enjoy a great slushy! Free Skate is my favorite!
Dennis Caulfield: Mm
Paul C.: Nice clean place, good ice condition. Locker rooms are spacious but warm.Limited parking.
