I've been to George's Garage a few times now. It's close enough to downtown to be convenient but just outside the busiest part, which makes it a little easier to get to and gives it a more relaxed feel. The space has a laid-back, industrial vibe and does a great job honoring the building's history. This is the third business I've seen occupy this location since moving to Greensboro, and I love that they kept the original garage door windows while giving the space a fresh identity. Between the craft cocktails and arcade games, it's a fun place to spend an evening. The cocktails are great and well crafted. They run about $15, every drink I've tried has been enjoyable, but the House Cosmo has become my go-to, the martini list is a favorite of mine. The bartenders are always friendly and welcoming, and it's fun knowing that one of them founded Girls Guide to Greensboro. George's Garage also keeps things interesting with a great lineup of events, including monthly book clubs, craft nights, and weekly trivia (shout-out to Zero Dark Nerdy!). One tip if you're visiting: George's Garage shares the building with Machete and Sage Mule, so there are parking spaces nearby. Just don't park at Deep Roots Market--you'll likely get towed. Whether you're meeting friends for happy hour, planning a date night, or just looking for a pre or post meal drink, George's Garage is definitely worth checking out. I'll definitely be back. read more

Such a fun spot for great drinks, a chill vibe and some laughs. Love the indoor/outdoor feel with their garage door opening and open air seating. Plenty of cozy areas with couches, chairs, tables, bar and high tops. Friendly service and great cocktails from our bartender today. I usually personalize my Manhattan since many bartenders pour a little too much of the sweet vermouth. This one came out perfect. And my wife's spicy margarita also had a nice kick, she loved it. This is a great spot for a pre-dinner or pre-Tanger drink or a fun hangout with friends or family enjoying great drinks in a cozy and chill atmosphere. read more

I attended the Galentine's Day celebration hosted by a girls guide to Greensboro. It was such a fun event. I got a permanent bracelet, a custom hat, flowers, and this strawberry shortcake martini. I went not knowing anyone and not only did I run into several friends, but I made a new friend as well! And we have even hung out since. The vibe was cool and I loved seeing all the dogs.. The only thing that threw me off was there were quite a few gentlemen there and while I understand, it was not necessarily a private event. It was a little surprising to see so many men at a Galentine's event. read more

George's Garage in downtown Greensboro is sort of a new bar that's just got kicked off and started up some months ago. If you're looking for a laid-back spot with a fun vibe. The atmosphere is super chill, and they've got arcade games and a couple of pool tables that really bring a nostalgic, easygoing energy to the place. Shoutout to Brandon behind the bar he was awesome. Super friendly and attentive, and he makes a fantastic lemon drop! Whether you're just stopping in for a drink or looking to unwind for a while, this is a great place to kick back with friends. Definitely coming back. Highly Recommend! read more

Randomly popped into George's Garage on the tail end of date-night. It was such a cool vibe! Very laid back with a dive-bar feel but the chic modern decor made it feel more upscale. The space is utilized well with a large bar area & lounge seating. There is an additional section full of arcade games, a pool table and air hockey too! Definitely a fun spot all around with something for everyone. The bartenders were fun & engaging in conversation, plus made drink recommendations too! I ordered their French75 and that thing packed a punch for sure! I hope to go back when the garage doors are open. read more

George's Garage - Arcades Near Me - Greensboro, North Carolina

OPENING NIGHT!!! George's Garage was packed and as they should! Settled right by downtown Greensboro this new barcade had plenty of places to sit and mingle, and arcade games scattered throughout as well! The bar was nice and stocked and the place was booming! I got my drink quick the bartenders were very attentive and it's a layered building, the entrance area is an area where you can sit relax grab a drink, and the second area is the arcade area! They had skeeball, pool tables, foosball tables, claw machines and more! Don't expect a game selection like Boxcar but they seem like they have addidonal space for more games/activities! Overall great spot in a nice location! Add this to the bar crawl , Cheers! read more

This new bar and arcade opened on January 25, 2025. I didn't have any plans on this Saturday night, so I decided to go check it out, solo. I arrived around 10:30pm. The first thing I noticed was that parking was limited. Inside, it was extremely busy! One side is a long bar with 5-6 bartenders. The other side is where the games are located. I saw people of all ages. I stood in line for a few minutes but I was able to grab a seat at the bar once I saw an opening. I browsed the menu and looked around. They had 5 TVs in that area. Even with sitting at the bar, it took forever to get services. I don't think there were enough bartenders for the crowd. I think there should've been more, especially with it being opening night. Or maybe had bartenders assigned to designated sections of the bar to prevent people from being skipped or just not attended to at all. It seemed like they were focusing on the ends of the bar. To be honest, after 10 minutes of the bartenders serving everyone else but me, I almost left because even the person who came and sat beside me got served before me. If I wasn't by myself, I think I would've been more patient but when you're alone, I have nothing to do but wait. After 20 minutes of waiting, I finally placed an order for a regular margarita. I asked if they could add a flavor and was told no abut could do a spicy margarita. I just got the regular one. After I got it, I closed out. It wasn't even worth keeping a tab open. If it took me 20 minutes to get one drink while sitting at the middle the bar, who knows how long it would've taken to get another one. The margarita was lackluster. I've never had a margarita with club soda in it... I thought that was very odd. The drink tasted weak to me. It was $12. After that, I was annoyed and ready to go. I chugged the margarita down and left the bar area before going to the arcade side. There was a DJ there. I saw a Photo Booth, air hockey, punching machine, and etc. the typically arcade games. Card readers on the game machines. It seemed like most of the games were $1. I ended up losing in a game to a stranger and had to go back to the bar. This time, I stood at the end, hoping that would be quicker and it was. I just needed to get a beer, which I got and closed my tab. Afterwards, I left. The bar situation really dampened my mood. I could understand if I was standing behind people and I just had to wait my turn... but to be sitting right there in the middle of the bar, watching bartenders tend to everyone but me... my annoyance grew with every passing minute. I even made direct contact with 2 of the bartenders and they didn't say a word or acknowledge me. Compared to the other bar/arcade place in Greensboro, it is smaller and less room. It was crowded and limited games. It almost gave club vibes with how many people were standing around as it was packed and the loud music. With the games, i like the idea of being able to get a reloadable card and put money on it vs having to bring cash or make a $1 charge on my card for every game I wanted to play. As a positive, I will say I liked the decor and the music was enjoyable. Other people seemed to be enjoying themselves. I wonder what the experience would be like once the hype has died down or on a day where it's not so crowded. I would consider returning but this experience didn't impress me at all and left me disappointed, actually. I was here for only 40 minutes. read more

The drinks are tasty and their menu is fun! Even though it was packed and they were understaffed they were efficient and quick. It feels very chill inside and would be a great place to hang out with friends or go out on a date night! Both my sisters drank lemon drops and they enjoyed them and I was the DD that night. They were really nice about me getting just juice or water which felt really nice! read more

Great spot with cocktails and mocktails, beer, and a really killer bourbon selection. Really enjoyed finally getting to try a pour of EH Taylor Barrel Proof, and for a reasonable price. Plenty of comfy seating to hang out with your group, but also lots of arcade games up top if that's more your vibe for the evening. I loved the theming and even got to meet George. We will be back! read more

I was excited to try George's as the owner has a great reputation in the bar business for unique design concept and great drink selection. George's doesn't fall short , the inside has a fun casual vibe and well thought out with different types of seating options . You can choose from an all American PBR to a nice craft cocktail, so something for all tastes. The arcade section is fun and the outside seating is inviting . There was a food truck for added appeal. The service was ok with two bartenders. Glad to have this option join the downtown neighborhood . read more

Brand new gem in town, appealing to all! Great cocktail menu and good vibes. Extra points for George of George's Garage being an adorable Corgie who's cute face can be seen all over inside! Highly reccomend. read more

Honestly only been here once which was Valentine's Day this year weirdly enough but it was interesting to see what they did with the space. I'm honestly a little impressed by the way they were able to change the design up so fast from the old "Greensboro Market" bar that was there previously which I loved but honestly I think the staff was overall pretty friendly. I remember them being busy but I know that the service was fast and not awkward at all. I did not try any food, I don't think they provide that but the drinks were pretty good, nothing particularly memorable but still overall enjoyable. I think it's really cool what they did with the space in the short amount of time they had to turn around but I'm sure to stop by again and give it another try. read more

Stopped by Saturday, nice looking place had multiple bartenders right in front of us. They were no acknowledging the coupe in front of us or anyone else near us. So we walked out read more
