Whitehall Skateaway is a nostalgic roller skating rink that offers a fun, family-friendly environment at an affordable price. Visitors appreciate its clean space, good sound system, and a variety of fun games and arcade machines available for play. The rink provides plenty of skates to rent, making it easy for guests to enjoy skating sessions. The staff is friendly and courteous, and the venue hosts events like birthday parties, making it a popular spot for families and groups. The on-site food, including surprisingly tasty pizza, adds to the overall positive experience. Many visitors enjoy the old-school vibe and find the environment to be a nice throwback, especially for those looking to relive memories or introduce skating to new generations. However, some challenges are noted, such as small bathroom stalls that lack locks, limited water options due to no outside water bottles allowed and no credit card payments accepted, and rental equipment that isn’t always in the best condition. There are also rules that some find frustrating, like restrictions on skating backwards. Despite these issues, Whitehall Skateaway remains a beloved spot for skating enthusiasts and families seeking an affordable, nostalgic fun activity.
Cash only! Cash Only! Cash only for tickets, skates rental, food and beverages. I had to go to an ATM machine for cash. The lady at the food counter was not friendly at all. I would not go back myself.

My granddaughter loves to skate here. Every Saturday night is her night so the staff know her. Staff are friendly and caring. (She had fallen pretty bad and they took immediate action to help her.) very friendly place. Family oriented. They have a speed skating team and they do special sessions and parties.

Cute skating rink with very patient instructors. However, the overwhelming odor of pot eminating from the bathroom after an influx of teens put a different light on things. Not a good environment for younger kids IMO. Sad being there are so few places for wholesome recreation for pre teens and younger kids.
