180 Rodeo Rink and Lounge

I wish I had read the reviews before booking for 01/10. The establishment is uninviting and the staff is uninformed about customer inquiries. Each question was answered with 'we don't know' and 'we don't have that.' We tried to order food, but it was supposed to be 'no grease' and grease was on its way it never arrived. The offsite pizza was unappetizing and not what I would serve to my guests. Furthermore, the kids' juices were not chilled. Fortunately, we brought our own drinks so they will have more…charging the adults to get in for a party they are supporting with their kids.. is crazy work and embarrassing. One kid scraped her knee they didn’t have a bandage on site… a simple first aid kit is not costly. The restroom was unhygienic and smelled terrible. So many other disappointments but we made it through those 3 hrs, we were ready to get away from there.. I would never support that place again.. I forgot to mention pool table stick broke they didn’t have another one on top of charging $5 for the stick. Our people !

Took my 4yr old son here to end his Christmas break. I really enjoyed how intimate it was and not too crowded. I was able to teach him how to skate and watch him build up confidence to skate along side others. All the staff I encountered were very nice and helpful. Everything went smoothly. Felt like I was at a family gathering. We will be back

My daughter’s 4th birthday party at this venue was an absolute disaster and nothing like what was promised by the owner, Moe, when I booked. I confirmed multiple times — in September and again in October — that my reservation for 15 kids included free entry for all guests and only a discounted fee to skate after the 15-guest count was met. That was the only reason I booked, and no policy changes were ever communicated to me. On the day of the party (11/15), not one employee greeted us upon arrival. Minutes into setup, my guests were told they would have to pay an entry fee — the exact opposite of what I was promised. The manager, “Unc,” put up a chain blocking access and argued with me for over an hour in front of my guests and children. He stood in my personal space, was disrespectful, and attempted to gaslight me by claiming I “misunderstood.” I had proof. He did not produce any. During this, I had to stand guard at the chain so my own invited guests could enter my child’s party without being shaken down for money. The chain didn’t come down until nearly two hours into my three-hour reservation. We were told pizza was included and ordered days in advance, yet it was late and incorrect — and only then did I learn it wasn’t even made on-site. Bathrooms were disgustingly dirty in an empty venue. My party host and the skate attendant tried to help where they could, but management’s behavior and lack of communication overshadowed everything. To make matters worse, my niece fell and broke teeth while skating, and not a single employee checked on her or offered basic first aid like ice. At the end of the party, the manager finally apologized and admitted they failed to communicate the policy change and that I indeed booked under different terms. But by that point, the damage was done. My guests refused to purchase food or drinks after the way we were treated, and what should have been a celebration became stressful and humiliating. This business ruined my child’s birthday. The lack of professionalism, cleanliness, and basic human decency was alarming. I would not recommend this place to anyone. Enter at your own risk.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had an amazing time at 180 Rodeo Rink in Houston! This place is truly a hidden gem for family fun, great food, and good vibes. The owner, Moe Vickers, is an incredible businesswoman with a vision for community and hospitality. Her skating rink is clean, family-oriented, and full of positive energy — perfect for birthday parties and weekend gatherings. The soul food menu is outstanding — we enjoyed the lamb chops, oxtails, fish, pizza, and wings, and everything was seasoned to perfection. There’s also an adults-only hookah and bar section, which keeps the space fun for everyone while still being family-friendly. A special shoutout to Jordan, the bartender and server, for her excellent customer service and welcoming smile. She made our experience even better! We celebrated my nephew Ayden’s 8th birthday here, and both the kids and adults had a blast. If you’re looking for something different in Houston — where you can skate, eat, and enjoy good company — 180 Rodeo Rink is the place to be!

I visited the rink for the first time and when I tell you I had a great time. The DJ was great and the environment was even better. I loved the food my personal favs were the wings, shrimp quesadilla and salmon bites!!! It was literally finger licking good. I even got an airbrush shirt taking me back to the early 2000s. Overall, the owner Moe was a great host and very welcoming. I’ll def be back!
