Southgate Roller Rink
4.6Seattle, WA
About this program
Family-owned roller rink and arcade in Seattle's White Center neighborhood running a drop-in Learn to Skate class every Sunday morning for all ages and abilities; the fee covers the hour of instruction, skate rental and the family skate session that follows. Additional family skate sessions run Friday evenings and Saturday and Sunday afternoons.
Families call the staff friendly and encouraging and appreciate that parents are allowed to walk the rink alongside kids who are still learning; the weekend daytime sessions and cheap arcade are repeatedly described as genuinely kid-friendly.
The rink itself is small, admission strikes some visitors as expensive, and evening sessions are 21+ bar-and-live-music events rather than family time.
