Spare Time Omaha — Arcade in Omaha, Nebraska

Arcade Venue

Spare Time Omaha is an amusement center serving the Omaha, Nebraska market, listed in our arcade finder directory as a dedicated gaming venue. The operation spans the full daily range that arcade visitors typically look for, opening in the late morning and running well into the night on every day of the week. That kind of schedule is built around both daytime family visits and late-evening sessions, which is a common approach for amusement centers operating in the broader Midwest.

Omaha has quietly grown into a meaningful stop on the regional arcade map, with a handful of venues clustered around the metro that cater to different tastes. Some of those neighbors are dedicated barcades, some lean into pinball and classic cabinet history, and others — like Spare Time Omaha — sit in the broader amusement-center category that often pairs arcade games with other attractions such as bowling, bowling-alley hybrids, or laser tag under a single roof. Travelers looking to map out the full set of options around the city can browse our interactive arcade map for a wider geographic view.

The Scene

Spare Time Omaha is listed in public directories as an “amusement center,” which is a broader umbrella than a standalone arcade — these venues typically mix arcade cabinets and redemption games with complementary attractions like bowling, laser tag, or miniature golf under a single roof. We don’t have an editorial review summary, customer-quoted highlights, or an automated sentiment scan for this listing yet, so we won’t put words in players’ mouths. What we can say is that the public rating on the major review platforms sits at 4.3 out of 5 across 369 reviews, which is a healthy score for a venue in this category and a reasonable signal that most visitors leave satisfied. If you’ve been and want to share what you saw, the directory’s claim-and-update flow lets operators and regulars keep listings current.

If you’re cross-shopping Omaha arcade venues, two neighbors worth a look are Beercade2, which leans into the barcade format, and the Hollywood Pinball & Arcade Museum, a more collector-oriented pinball stop. Other Omaha listings in our directory include Capitol Arcade and a second Draftcade Omaha entry. Each of those is a different flavor of the same hobby, and pairing a Spare Time visit with one of them makes for an easy full-day arcade crawl.

Games & Machines

We don’t have a verified machine list for Spare Time Omaha in our current data set, so we won’t guess at specific cabinet models, redemption counts, or pinball lineups. What we can say in general is that amusement centers of this size and category tend to run a mix of modern arcade titles, classic cabinets, driving and shooting games, and a substantial redemption section, with the exact mix usually set by the operator and rotated over time. For the current game floor, the venue’s own website is the best source — operators update cabinets and prize stock far more often than any third-party directory can keep up with.

Visiting

The listing gives the city and state only — “Omaha, NE” — rather than a street address, so for exact directions and a pin drop you’ll want to check the venue’s own site or your preferred maps app before heading out. The phone number on file is +1 402-378-9994, which is the right line to call for day-of questions about hours, pricing, or whether a birthday or group booking is being accepted.

Hours run 10AM to 11PM Sunday through Thursday and 10AM to midnight on Friday and Saturday, which is a generous schedule that should cover most after-work and weekend plans without forcing a tight window. If you’re planning a visit alongside another Omaha arcade — Beercade2, Hollywood Pinball & Arcade Museum, or one of the Draftcade locations, for instance — this kind of late-evening schedule makes it easy to chain two stops into one evening.

We don’t have an age policy, food-and-drink policy, or party-booking workflow on file for this listing, so call ahead or check the venue’s own page before bringing younger kids, planning a group event, or assuming a kitchen or bar will be open. Operators who want to update any of those details — or correct anything else on this page — can do so through our claim-your-listing flow.
