Spartacues

Our story

Hiba and Georgios

A married couple who love games, and cannot resist a bit of competition. They opened Spartacues so Dubai would have somewhere to properly play.

Hiba and Georgios, who opened Spartacues.

Their idea was simple. One place where you can sit down and play for hours, sometimes for days, as competitive as you like and friendly the whole way through.

A real gaming community

Hiba and Georgios did not want a venue people pass through. They wanted regulars, rivals and friends. People who know each other by name, take a tournament seriously, then stay for another round afterwards.

More than a billiard hall

What started as a billiard and board game venue has grown into something wider: professional tables downstairs, and one of the largest public board game collections in the UAE upstairs. Tournaments, casual game nights, trading card games, social deduction evenings, and role playing campaigns in a room built for them.

Why it stays affordable

Dubai is an expensive city to go out in. Prices here are kept deliberately low, because a community only grows if everyone can afford to keep turning up. That is why a billiard table is priced per table instead of per person, and why your food covers your board games.

Eat well, stay late

Good evenings need good food. The kitchen matters as much as the tables here, and plenty of regulars will tell you the food is what made them come back the second time.

It turned into a family

In a couple of years the WhatsApp community has passed 600 people, and many of them are here every week. That is the part Hiba and Georgios are proudest of. It stopped being a room where people play games and became something closer to a family.

The whole place is built around one idea: great games create great memories.
