Situated in Alexander Caldwell's striking City Center Bishop Ranch piazza in San Ramon, the rink is protected by an overhead architectural canopy, allowing families to glide smoothly rain or shine. Each 90-minute session includes skate rentals, and beginner skate trainers ('Bobby the Seal' aids) are available for younger toddlers. The surrounding multi-tiered shopping and dining center features heated outdoor fire tables, stroller-friendly elevators and walkways, spotless family restrooms, and artisanal hot cocoa from local cafes. A portion of rink proceeds supports Yamaguchi's Always Dream foundation for childhood literacy. ## Similar picks in San Francisco - [Safeway Holiday Ice Rink in Union Square](https://grassyknees.com/san-francisco/activities/safeway-holiday-ice-rink-in-union-square--listing-6e5fc0d4af27f52a40996f04) — Nov 4 – Jan 18 · 10:00 AM – 11:00 PM · Union Square Plaza · All ages · From $22 · checked Nov 4.
