Spare Time Greensboro is a video arcade located in Greensboro, North Carolina. Greensboro sits in the heart of North Carolina’s Piedmont region and is part of the broader Triad metro, an area that has built up a notable mix of gaming venues over the past decade — from retro barcades to multi-floor family entertainment centers and bowling-arcade hybrids. Spare Time fits into that scene as a dedicated, drop-in arcade destination with broad daily hours and a recognizable local following.
That following is reflected in the venue’s 4.4 average rating across roughly 3,400 reviews, a volume of public feedback that is unusual for a single arcade location. The combination of a strong average and a large review base suggests a place that handles both first-timers and repeat visitors well. Out-of-towners stopping through Greensboro, families looking for a weekend activity, and casual players chasing a quick session all tend to land at the same kind of anchor venue, and Spare Time Greensboro is one of the names that fits that brief in the Triad.
For visitors weighing their options, the local arcade market is competitive. Greensboro also includes several distinctly different neighbors, including a bar-led barcade, a bowling-and-arcade hybrid, and a smaller dedicated arcade. Each leans a different direction, so it’s worth comparing them before settling on a spot for the evening.

The Scene
Spare Time Greensboro holds a strong 4.4-star rating accumulated across about 3,400 reviews, which is a meaningful volume of public feedback for a single arcade venue. Sustained scores across thousands of check-ins typically point to a location that delivers a reliable experience rather than relying on one-off novelty.
Without a structured review summary in this record, the picture here is built from the public numbers alone: visitors keep coming back, and the overall sentiment leans positive. Anyone deciding between Spare Time and the other arcades in town can use the rating and review count as a baseline signal, and then cross-check the venue against first-hand visits or the broader Greensboro arcade directory. The numbers don’t tell the whole story, but they’re a reasonable starting point.
Games & Machines
Specific game titles, machine counts, and pricing aren’t listed in this record, but the venue is classified as a video arcade, which sets a clear expectation of coin-op or card-based video cabinets, redemption machines, and the kind of multiplayer setups that draw groups of friends. Because the game list isn’t confirmed here, anyone chasing a particular title or cabinet type should call ahead using the phone number listed below, or check the venue’s own website for the latest lineup before making the trip.
Visiting
Spare Time Greensboro is listed at a Greensboro, NC address and can be reached at +1 336-292-5100. The full weekly schedule is unusually generous for a single-purpose arcade: doors open at 10AM on weekends and stay open until midnight on Friday and Saturday nights, while the Sunday-through-Thursday block runs 11AM to 11PM (10AM to 11PM on Sundays). That pattern makes it easy to fit a visit around a workday, a school schedule, or a late-weekend session, and it gives weekday afternoon visitors a real alternative to the standard after-work window.
For travelers planning a broader Greensboro arcade trip, the venue sits alongside several neighbors worth comparing, including Boxcar Bar + Arcade, Round1 Bowling & Arcade – Greensboro, ParTee Shack – Greensboro, and Bourbon Bowl: Eat, Drink, Roll. Each one leans a different direction, so it’s worth a look at the full Greensboro arcade map before deciding where to spend an evening.
Spare Time runs its own website at sparetimeentertainment.com/greensboro for the most current pricing, age policies, food and drink options, and party-booking details.
