Tri-State Speedway

I recently moved to the area and discovered a coupon for rollerskating at this location on the back of my Stop and Shop receipt. My boyfriend and I decided to stop by on a Friday night to check it out. The rink is small, I guess it used to be a go kart track. There’s a divider/​number in the middle of the floor which takes away some floor space and limits movement but wasn’t that big of a deal for me. The floor is a painted concrete and is sticky. Friday nights are adult only after 9pm and they’re open until 12am!!! Admission gets you skates (if you don’t have your own) and a free drink ticket. The DJ was really awesome and played anything we requested. My boyfriend and I chatted with the staff a bunch who were all super friendly. Overall the rink itself is 3 stars but the fun disco lights, music, free drink ticket, location and late hours makes this place 5 stars! It’s a great place to hang out on a Friday night and get some skate time in… especially during the winter when all the skate trails are wet and frozen. :)

While some parts of the business might be great (go kart racing, roller skating) what detracts from the visit is half of the arcade machines are broken and will eat your tokens. I highly doubt the machines will be fixed either and its obvious from their current state. The service clerk seemed hesitant to offer a refund as well.

Better than before! Always improving and building upon their blocks. Bathrooms are a little tired — but its a loving work in progress. It is ALWAYS clean, ALWAYS focused on 100% customer satisfaction. Staff is lovely, so attentive, so hassle free. Fun for EVERYONE in the family. I don’t roller skate, but if you do, you can get your 70’s ageless «boogie» on, to all the new hits. This is a place to play, chill and keep the kids and adults entertained. Indoor go-​karting is so much fun! And GET THIS — they PAY for good grades! So bring your kids A’s and B’s — $ 3 for every A, $ 2 for every B, and they hand you a gift card that you can use for tokens, racing! SERIOUSLY! Your kid gets PAID for good grades! WOW! THAT is an incentive!
Pool tables are always free, so are darts! And if you save the points from tickets, you can come after kid hours and use them for discounts on beverages (so get the kiddies to rack up some points, and then make an excuse to dodge and take the points for a later water hole engagement).
Such a great place for birthdays, hanging out, keeping the kids off the «Im bored» train. Check the website or their facebook, for specials, and best times to come by. Unilocal in for 10 FREE TOKENS!!! WOOHOO!

I’ve been here many times and it’s always a great experience.
Today was one of the best visits I’ve had. Staff upstairs (go-​karts) and downstairs (arcades) were super friendly and helpful! Everyone that works there seems to enjoy what they do which always makes the experience better :)
A couple (2) of my favorite arcade games weren’t working but the kids didn’t notice or mind :)

I had been here once before and enjoyed it so I booked my daughters birthday party there. A party for 18 twelve year olds. In all the years of having large kids parties this one was the most expensive and the worst! There was no staff member assigned to help with anything! No direction whatsoever ! We wasted 40 minutes taking waiver pictures and waiting in line for go karts. I had to ask what we had to do because nobody told me about the pictures when booking the party or when I walked in and handed the desk person all the waivers. One mother forgot her waiver and the desk person COULD NOT find any!!! Luckily I had an extra one. Unreal. So 40 minutes into our 2 hour party and not one person has gotten on a kart yet. After all the activities we came back to the party room (on our own as nobody touched base with us the while time) and we had to ask for our pizza and drinks. No staff member passed out anything! The parents did all the work. I had to hunt down a manager because they were short 6 gift bags. The worst customer service I have EVER had at a birthday party! Will never go back.

Horrible place for a bday party!!! Staff very in attentive and gave no direction. Packs of juice boxes thrown in the center of the tables. Not one person checked on party to see if anything was needed. Very disappointed!!! Kids didn’t care for it, will not be going back.

Not a fan for smaller kids. The site implies that there is go kart racing for children but there is a Mini one for up to four-​year-​olds and then one for 12 and up. If they are in between they have to ride with a parent and you have to pay full price for both along with a yearly membership fee. A little too expensive in my opinion. I will not be taking my kids there again.

About every1/​5 arcade games were «temporarily out of order» and those that were working were not worth it. Waited about 30 minutes to pay $ 17 for 5 minutes on the go-​kart race track, it was fun but not worth the time/​money. The bumper car court was not big enough to support more than 1 car so there really was no point. The prize case was pathetic, not because the cheap plastic trinkets aren’t worth the amount of tickets but because they were practically empty so the kids had no selection at all. Kids had an okay time but mostly because they don’t understand how much money was spent. The best part of the entire experience was the air hockey table and I could have taken the kids to their uncle’s basement for free. Don’t get your hopes up.

This place is pretty friggin awesome. They’ve got an arcade, ticket games, mini golf, bumper cars, kart racing, a bar with billiards, darts and food. Needless to say they’ve got it all. It’s fun, fairly big and quite a bit to do.
My girlfriend and I were looking for a place to play some mini golf but not overly packed with little kids or wait 20 minutes for each hole. We arrive late afternoon and walk in and the mini golf area is closed along with the arcade. Hearts drop and we are getting ready to leave and a guy comes out asks us what we wanted and tell him we wanted to mini golf. He turns around and turns the arcade and mini golf area on for us! We have the entire place to ourselves and he lets us go on our way.
The mini golf area is painted in a beach theme and contains «water» and «sand» traps that cost 1 stroke for each hazard. Its not huge like some outdoor mini golf but again, we had the place to ourselves. The holes are not overly difficult but they do take some practice to play through well. We played all 18 holes in probably about 30 minutes or so and had a blast.
Since the guy was so nice to let us play on our own and open the area for us I will definitely go back again just to shoot some mini golf and play pool and have a few beers. To that guy: thanks! You made our night!

Awesome place to go, fun for kids and adults. Indoor go-​carts were a blast, made me feel like a kid again. They do have height resctrictions for the little ones. Bar food was surprisingly good. Decent pool tables and dart boards. Definately plan on re-​visiting.

Fun car driving and ok other play area

Drafters Sports Bar is in this place and its awesome. Its actually a real, old school straight up sports bar with big flat screens, darts, pool and good food. Good looking girls bartending that know their sports. I cant believe I didnt know this place was here! This is the new Sunday NFL hang for sure. Its actually totally worth it to drive here from Putnam.
