Adult Movie Theatres in Greensboro

North Carolina · last checked 23 October 2026

Thirty miles apart in the Triad there are two places with rooms, and one of them has something nothing else in this directory has. Between a pair of its booths sits a panel of glass that stays opaque until both people switch it on. Then they can see each other. It is called buddy glass, and it is consent built into the fittings.

What is still open

Romeo and Juliet's

Theatre

1045 North Cherry Street, Winston-Salem, NC 27101

From Greensboro: About 30 miles west
Has: Two theatres, an arcade, and private rooms
Buddy glass: Between booths, switchable from both sides
Theatre: $10 for two people, by a visit in August 2026
Hours: 7am to 10pm, to 11pm Thursday to Saturday, to 8pm Sunday
Phone: (336) 842-5510

Refitted under new owners around 2020 and the only venue in the Triad with a proper theatre. Two of them, in fact, plus an arcade that a reviewer at the time said carried about a thousand films and a live webcam channel. That detail is six years old now and nobody has repeated it, so treat the thousand and the webcam as then rather than now. The theatres and the booths are confirmed as recently as this August.

Ten dollars for two. A man who went with a friend in August 2026 called that fair for the theatre, said they put on a show for the people in there, and then walked round the booth area with no clothes on. He got comments and nobody was rude to him. His two suggestions to the house were more televisions running different films, and a flat couch.

That is the cheapest door for a couple anywhere in this directory. Raleigh is fifteen a head, Chattanooga eighteen.

Both the buddy glass and the private rooms come from a customer answering questions on the listing seven months ago, not from the business. Asked whether they do private rooms for a man and his girlfriend, he said yes. Asked what buddy glass is, he explained it. Nobody from the shop has confirmed either, so ring first if it is the reason you are going.

One warning from February 2025: a long-standing customer said the staff had changed for the worse and singled out a manager on the early shift. The reviews are otherwise warm about the people, and particularly about one of the assistants.

Miranda's Adult Toy Store

Booth arcade

1310 East Bessemer Avenue, Greensboro, NC 27405

Has: An arcade at the back, and DVDs to rent or buy
Hours: 8am to midnight, from noon on Sunday
Phone: (336) 274-7188

The only thing inside Greensboro itself. A big, plain shop, not much to look at, with a wide range of stock, films for hire as well as sale, and an arcade in the back. Prices a little above average, and a clerk the reviewer went out of his way to call friendly.

Nobody has described the inside of that arcade, so we are counting the room and not telling you what is in it. Sixteen hours a day, seven days, is the useful part: it is open at eight in the morning and still open at midnight.

Adam & Eve in Greensboro is a shop. Mirage and Pure Gold are strip clubs. Further out there is an arcade at Fayetteville and a couples theatre at Gastonia, both too far to count as the Triad.

Buddy glass

Somebody asked on the listing whether this place still had buddy glass, and admitted they did not know what it was. The answer, from a regular: if the people on each side of the glass both turn it on, they can see each other.

Think about what that solves. The entire difficulty of a booth is that you cannot tell what the person next to you wants without asking, and asking is the thing nobody wants to do first. A hole in the wall is a commitment made blind. A door left ajar is an invitation to anyone walking past. Switchable glass is neither: it does nothing at all until two people have each, separately, decided they want it to.

Nothing else in forty-odd cities has that. What the rest have is carpentry answering to the law.

Winston-Salem
Buddy glass. Opaque between two booths until both sides turn it on, then each can see the other.
Charlotte
State law: no viewing booth in an adult mini motion picture theatre may hold more than one person at a time.
Raleigh
Private rooms let by the hour, alongside the booths.
Riverside
No doors on the booths at all.

One state statute, and four different pieces of carpentry answering to it.

And there is an obvious reading of the glass which we are going to set out and then decline to assert. North Carolina does not permit more than one person in a viewing booth. Buddy glass lets two booths become, for a moment, one room, without anybody sharing a booth. We have no source saying that is why it was installed, and it may simply be a good idea somebody had. But the shape of it is hard to miss.

A live webcam channel, in the arcade

The 2020 account of this place lists, among the thousand films in the arcade, a live webcam channel. A customer sitting in a booth in Winston-Salem, watching people on a camera somewhere else.

That is worth noticing, because this whole directory is a record of buildings losing to exactly that. Home video emptied the Allentown cinema in 1992. The man in Biloxi put it in one clause: before all the free internet stuff it was the place to be.

So a surviving arcade piped the internet into its own booths. Which is either the smartest thing in this directory or an admission, depending on how you look at it. Either way the venue had worked out where its audience had gone.

No history to give you

We found no record of an adult cinema in Greensboro or Winston-Salem. Not a name, not an address, not a closing date, and no obscenity case from the years when nearly every other city on this site was having one.

The Carolina Theatre at Greensboro, opened on Halloween night 1927 and billed as the Showplace of the Carolinas, is the only historic house left in the city. It had declined by the early 1970s, which is the point at which theatres in these pages usually turn. We have not found anything saying this one did, and we are not going to assume it. It shows concerts and classic films today.

The Winston-Salem Journal archive, the Greensboro History Museum and the special collections at UNC Greensboro would settle it. We have not been through any of them.
