Cheap cardboardy pizza, loud machines, creepy puppets, and a lot of cold virus. Should be fun for the kids though.

I too lived for chucky cheese just for the tmnt arcade. Amazing how universal the love for that was.

My last few experiences there have been fairly tame. The floor is super trashed and gross, from my experiences.

Prepare for at least one of your kids to come home with some damn disease. May as well get the cold medicine on your way home.

I lived for the Star Wars Trilogy arcade cabinet. Everything else is a nightmare.

The chicken wings are alright for what they are lol, but get prepared to get ripped off. You only get a set of tickets. Five in my area per game, no matter how well you did.

no matter how shitty another kid is to your kids, do not even attempt to make eye contact with the child, or prepare to fight their parent(s)

They do still serve beer and wine. It's a good place for kids to go nuts and parents don't have to pay attention all that much.

Surprised by these comments. I've never had a bad experience there and I've been to a shitload of B-Day parties there. Always been a good time for the kids and I bring my laptop and surf around.

Great place for kids. Every game and photo machine is $0.25 or less depending on how many tokens you buy. Some places let you buy a card for unlimited play for 30 min or so.

You can get a card there now to play as much as you want for 45 minutes or an hour or something. My 10 year old son was in heaven running from game to game last time lol. It's still a good time for kids in my experience.

The last couple of times I've been there their pizza was surprisingly good. I wouldn't touch the salad buffet, but it wasn't bad. I try not to take my kid when it's flu season, for obvious reasons.

It's basically just a kid casino now. There's now jungle gym, no ball pit, no tunnels. It's just games, tickets, prizes.

Make sure to sanitize yourself at every convenience and shower as soon as you get home.

Those places are germ cesspools.

Skeeball is the only thing worth playing there anymore.

Pretty much everything has ben converted to play for and give tickets. Our local Chuck E Cheese has no actual video games anymore.

Back in day.... Everytime I went we were pretty much the only ones there. Didn't realize chuck e cheeses was still a thing today. Thought kids got together and had fortnite parties or something....

And it hasn't changed in 20 years, including the games and the carpet.

This is a lie, I was pumped when i was invited to my nephews birthday party at chuck e cheese because at least i could re-live some old school TMNT action..... but there are no games there, only gambling machines for children that hand out 5 tickets a pop as prize support.

Sadly I dont think there was a single video game at the one i went to, and the best 2 things to do there for an adult were the basketball hoop arcade thing, and skeeball

If it's anything like the Chuck E. Cheese near me, the disgusting animatronic rat will look you in the eye and tell you it's going to make love to your wife.

The last time I saw or was even at a Chuck E Cheese was probably when I was eight. If they still have that cool Jurassic Park lightgun game that should be your top priority.

I would call ahead and see if they serve beer, some places don't.

The pizza was pretty good the last time I went.

California for now
Was weird last time I went. Not because it was empty or, at the time, the arcade was being fixed up...

No. Sometime sent me there to pick up an order, to-go!

Which I thought it would be for a kid birthday but was for this lonely guy up the street...

At least the employees had a person to talk to while I was there.
