Amazing cafe. Came for breakfast. Stayed for lunch… and dinner!!

Pretty good experience. Came for the skate disco as complete beginners. Was a little crowded and the music choices were a bit mid (a lot of tiktok songs) but overall a good time. Paid to rent skates.

The place is ok but needs a few improvements. There's the price shown online but on top of this parking is £5.60, skate hire is £2.50 each, locker hire is £2.50. It took a long time to enter as there was only one of the four booths manned during their busiest session of the week. They only have very dated figures skates with toe spikes available, no hockey skates. The skates I was given were wet inside. It's still worth a visit but if Swindon ice rink is nearer, it's much cheaper, more modern and a much nicer experience.

The Oxford Ice Rink is a fun place for skating, but it desperately needs a revamp. The facilities are outdated, and the building’s exterior, especially with the newly built Westgate nearby, is an eyesore. The grey, mould-like appearance of the concrete makes it feel neglected, which is disappointing in a city that attracts so many tourists. Inside, the rink is functional, but it hasn't changed much over the years. I’d gladly pay a bit more for tickets if it meant the council invested in giving the venue the uplift it deserves.

First staff are friendly and service is good. Went during the weekend so was quite busy. Large queue for rentals in general and the rental ice skates do appear to be quite worn out, similar to the building, plus booking system is overly complicated and needs registration; hence the 3 stars. Tips: -lockers are available, though bear in mind are 0.20p coins (you can ask reception for coins); no bags are allowed on the rink. -I would recommend parking at the Seacourt Park and Ride then taking the shuttle bus and walking to the venue if you plan to be around Oxford for the whole day; more space and better value.
