★★★★★Featured review by Roman Kadlubiec

I visited Romford Ice Rink with my brother and we had an amazing time. The atmosphere was fantastic -lively, friendly, and full of positive energy. The ice was in great condition, the staff were welcoming, and everything felt well organised. It was a really enjoyable experience and a great place to spend quality time together. Highly recommended, we'll definitely be coming back!

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for families introducing children to ice skating — penguin aids, structured Learn to Skate classes, and accessible facilities remove the barriers for first-timers. Experienced skaters will find the ice well-maintained.

“Ice rink is on the 2nd floor. Nicely maintained. Its within a leisure centre type building. Parking available across the road in the Liberty 2 shopping centre or you can drop off/pick up (10 minute) Limited on the road to the right of the building(one way street-so you can enter only and will exit back out onto the dual carriageway after a bit of meandering).”

“Love the Rink! My children have been going there since it opened and they still love it! â¤ī¸ Learn to skate or Learn to Hockey are great beginners classes. The ice is really fun and there are plenty of seats for those who are just spectators. The hockey matches are great and so is the Christmas Gala.”
