Spare Time Texas Pflugerville

Where You’ll Find It

Spare Time Texas of Pflugerville sits along FM 685 in the northern Austin suburb of Pflugerville, Texas, a short drive from Round Rock, Georgetown, Hutto, and Cedar Park. It’s the second location of the Spare Time Texas brand, which first opened in Temple in 2013, and it has been a neighborhood fixture since December 2015.

Bowling, Laser Tag, and Everything in Between

The center is built around 22 lanes of modern bowling, split between classic lanes and The Pin House, an exclusive eight-lane private lounge featuring UNREAL Bowling—a digital, AR-interactive bowling experience not found anywhere else in the area. Both options come with automatic scoring, bumpers, and food-and-drink service from the on-site restaurant and bar. Beyond the lanes, guests find a two-story laser tag arena, a game room packed with more than 50 arcade games (including VR experiences), and a Winner’s Corner prize store. The second-story loft is home to Hatchet Alley Axe Throwing, where six lanes use digitally projected targets for games like tic-tac-toe and Connect Four. Free youth bowling lessons and seasonal clubs and leagues round out the regular programming.

The Laser Tag Arena

The laser tag arena is a two-story, 26-player space set in an alien world, filled with dark corridors and mysterious fog that keep every mission unpredictable. Missions run every 15 minutes from open to close, each beginning with a pre-mission briefing and ending with individual score cards so players can see how they stack up. Guests must be at least 44 inches tall to play, and walk-ins are welcome on a first-come, first-served basis.

Parties, Events, and Team Building

Spare Time was purposefully designed to host private events, with six party and event rooms that can be transformed into a spacious banquet hall. The venue handles everything from kids’ birthday parties and teen celebrations to corporate offsites, holiday parties, sports team celebrations, lock-ins, and professionally facilitated team-building events. Groups can incorporate their own logos, colors, and branding at no extra cost, and the space has hosted full-building buyouts for organizations including the City of Pflugerville and Dell.

Food, Drink, and Room to Unwind

The full-service restaurant and bar, Shakers, serves Texas-crafted spirits, brews, and wines alongside a wide menu of American casual dishes. Guests can relax with a meal, watch live sports, or enjoy a drink between activities. The six private party rooms double as comfortable gathering spaces for food, cake, and presents, and the venue also offers catering with delivery options for larger groups.

Who It’s Best For

With bowling, laser tag, an arcade, axe throwing, and a restaurant all under one roof, the center suits a wide range of occasions—kids’ birthday parties, family outings, date nights, corporate team building, and large group celebrations alike. The dedicated party hosts, event sales team, and trained Axe-perts who coach each throwing session help keep every visit smooth, whether you’re bringing five guests or five hundred.
