This was our second time visiting this venue. There was trivia in the dining room with a wall fireplace that created a nice ambiance. Food was decent, the escape rooms were challenging and all the games were $1.50-$2.00 to play. I recommend going on Tuesday & Wednesday for their 50% off gaming and bowling specials. Josh was working behind the counter and he was super helpful when we had issues with our game card not loading and one of the games being in disrepair.

This is the best Sparetime venue I have been to this week. The lane oiling patterns are some of the best in the Midwest for average bowlers who are looking to take their average from 95 to 97 or 98. And good food.

We had such a fantastic time at Spare Time Madison—it's hands-down one of the best entertainment spots in the area! This place has everything under one roof: luxury bowling lanes, a massive arcade (Game Zone), laser tag, escape rooms, and a solid restaurant with great shareable apps, pizzas, and drinks. Perfect for date nights, family outings, or just blowing off steam with friends. The facility feels modern and clean, with upbeat vibes—especially during their After Dark bowling sessions (lights low, music pumping). We bowled a few games, hit the arcade for some classic and new games, and even grabbed food, and everything ran smoothly. What really made our visit special was our server, Bambi. She was incredible! Super friendly, attentive without being overbearing, and genuinely enthusiastic about making sure we had fun. She gave great recommendations on food and drinks, kept our table cleared and drinks refilled quickly, and even checked in during our bowling to see how we were doing. Her energy was contagious and made the whole experience feel extra welcoming. Bambi is a total star—thank you for the awesome service! If you're in Madison looking for a fun, all-ages (or adults-only night out) spot, Spare Time is a must-visit. We'll definitely be back soon!

We had an amazing time here for my niece's birthday party! 🎉 Our party was huge, and the host was quick, attentive, and very patient. We enjoyed every moment, and so did the kids! I'm from Chicago, and I'd definitely come back soon on the next off day or break the kids have out of school. We did have a minor problem with the chicken wings being undercooked, but it was rectified very quickly. The food was great otherwise! Drinks, omg, on point! 😉 Pay the bartender from that day extra. Thanks for an awesome & eventful day! 🥳 #Birthday #Party #Chicago #Food #Drinks #Kids #Bartender #Day

After stopping in to talk with the staff at Spare Time, we chose to book my daughters 13th birthday here with a few of her friends. The place is well organized, clean, and lively. The coordinators were very helpful with explaining the packages and options. It was nice and easy to set it up and the girls had a blast. With food, fun & games, it honestly left nothing to be desired. With the gracious help of Daisy, our Party Hostess, she kept us on time for all the activities. We didn't skip a beat, and she was super helpful. Highly recommend Spare Time for an event or celebration.

A Fun All-in-One Entertainment Spot Spare Time Madison is a fun and energetic place to hang out, whether you’re going with friends, coworkers, or family. It’s the kind of venue where there’s always something to do, making it perfect for a casual evening or a full event night. They offer a wide range of activities including arcade games, bowling lanes, laser tag, and escape rooms, along with restaurant-style seating and food options inside the facility. The setup makes it easy to spend several hours here without getting bored. This place is also great for team-building events, birthday parties, group gatherings, and casual hangouts. The facility feels organized, and the staff were friendly and helpful, which added to the overall experience. One of the best parts is their deals and activity packages, which offer good value considering how much there is to do. The entrance faces east, and restrooms are clean. I recommend this place and I would definitely revisit in the future.
