Does it all very well ... a fully equipped bar, extensive menu, very comfortable movie seats with silent bell to request service, and free (with validation) parking ... very friendly and knowledgeable staff ... Alex S, our bartender, was top notch and made several good suggestions for the beer and the entrees ... pleased with the kale salad and then buttered pretzels during the movie were outstanding ... we started our tab in the bar and it seamlessly followed us to our movie seats

Spirit Ice Arena

Reviewed By 313shelbyt

Fun time with nice staff. We also want to thank the staff for being attentive. My friend and I were on the ice and had a male that would not leave us alone. It started off harmless enough with a response to his hello but became an issue as we would eventually ask him to leave us alone. But this eventually turned into him grabbing us and trying to knock us down while laughing at us nearly being knocked down by him all while he would ask why we kept ignoring him. So, we got off the ice to see if we could wait him out. We went to the shop, only for him to end up following us in there and standing decently back while still in view. A nice man working there seemed to get the uneasy feeling and made small talk with us. When the male seemed to get closer he very forcefully told him to leave us alone. The male left which we were thankful for since we personally were very blunt with him on the ice but to no avail. He did return to the ice when we did but did not bother us again nor try to intentionally knock us down. Had the staff member not take note and action my friend and I would have been forced to leave after only being there for a few minutes.
