I would certainly not eat here, nor subject my son to it either as I respect his palette at this point more than he does. That said though, as for the games, they are all a single token(I think), and that makes for a cheap couple of hours for the best bud in my life and I to kick it...
Enjoy Suckas'!!!
Depends on when you go but if you go early on weekends or during the day on weekdays, you can avoid the skanky families who do drugs and don't know how to parent. Â Went one Sat early evening and a man came in smelling so much like marijuana that I'm guessing he had just smoked it outside. Â Why the staff allowed him in is beyond me!
Review Source:This place was a disaster. I had the day off and I decided to take my son during the afternoon. It was pretty empty so I figured we would order pizza and get our order quickly. I ordered two personal sized pizzas and tokens. Almost 30 bucks. It took 30 minutes for us to get one of the pizzas. It took another 15 minutes to get the other pizza. I was starving and my son was growing impatient. Now remember the place was empty, why did the woman question my son multiple times if I was his mother. My son is extremely shy and kept looking at her like she was crazy.
Review Source:We booked my daughters 4th birthday party here for Sunday morning 11am. I was called by the store a few day prior to confirm my reservation, when we arrived they were more than ready for us. Our hostess was great, my daughter was scared of Chuck E Cheese and his friends and she understood that completly. The hostess really catered to my daughter and helped her feel more comfortable.
Everything went well, our order was taken and food was bought out fresh and hot. Our cake was cut and passed out by our hostess and she also assisted when we were opening gifts. The hostess also helped us move all of our things to a empty spot once our 2 hour party was over.
Yes there were lots of screaming children, and yes a few games took our token (no big deal we had about 600 tokens anway). But come on its the place where a kid can be a kid and grown ups can run around and act like kids. I loved it and would recommend this location to any one who asked.
The only reason I took off a star was because as we were leaving our hand stamp was not checked at the front door, we were told the light was not working that did not sit well with me. Just remember when you are there to still keep a close eye on your children, this is still a place full of strangers.
OH!!!! before I forget please tip your server they do a lot of work with a lot of hyper children.
I can see where everyone is coming from, but my experience was great  (and I pretty dang hard to please). I know that for having kids you need to do it early. I booked a 9:30 AM party on a Saturday. We got there and we had the run of the place. The party hostess was FANTASTIC!! The manager kept coming over to insure everything was going well. Everyone was more than accommodating, and if a game didn't work , you tell them and they reimburse your token.
We had a great time. The pizza was good, the staff was friendly, the salad bar was clean (from the germaphobic), the lights and the bathroom were clean. There was no funny smells.
You can also get great coupons from Chuck E Cheese. com
And free parking!!
Stand in a long line to get and identical stamp with your kids. One person on duty with a line out the door. Took me 20 min to just get in. Pizza is gross. Salad bar is the best choice. Got 2 stars only because all the games are one token & the kids love Chuckie & this place. It's a zoo if you ask me. Most of the parents dont watch their own kids.
Review Source:as far as chuck e cheeses' go, this one is okay. Â the machines are usually in decent working order and skeeball usually has most of its balls.
one time i witnessed a man engaged in a screaming fight with what i assume was his significant other while the staff looked on. Â i can only imagine the shit that goes down in this place, and they don't even serve beer. i repeat: no beer at this location, folks.
their pizza is great in that little kid, buttery, greasy, somehow forms a solid mass that doesn't drip kinda way. Â i ate a plate of fried everything here once, and of course that was good - it was fried.
look for a coupon online before you go, watch out  for token theft perpetrated by children, and for your own good, bring some hand sanitizer.
Not so bad for a bunch of mid 20's and 2 kids for a bday party :) Â Went on a Thursday night at 8 PM when it wasn't swarming with wild kids. Â We actually had a good time relaxing, hogging the basketball game, and eating cheap pizza. Â Sometimes it's nice to not be eating super expensive food and drinks. Â I'd probably be singing a different tune if I had gone when it's crazy busy (which I'll never do unless I'm forced to!)
The Chuck E Cheese's in the burbs are definitely cleaner and bigger with more variety of games and prizes. Â But yay for a parking lot in the city!
Do you want to wait to die if you can prevent it ?? Then DO NOT go to this place unless it's during the middle of the week at say 12pm when everyone and their moms and pops have something else to do! This place is constantly over crowded and GHETTO!!! The salad bar looks Gross because they don't keep it sanitary.. the pizza is ok but you need about a full bottle of Advil when you exit out of there!
Review Source:Okay ....have I gone insane giving this place a high rating. The guests are more interesting than the show. Never seen so many YOUNG parents.....The place has changed. The bathrooms are remodeled and cleaner......This place gets a high rating because you have to give anyone who works there....a gold star......The staff really tries hard. The food is okay.....but the salad bar is a home run. The kids love this place.
Review Source:If you are under age 10, you might gice it 4 stars. My 2 year old has a blast there. She loves the rides but is also to young to realize that many of the games don't work. I lost countless quarters and nailed 40,000 in skeeball(mastered the 10.000 shot) once and it didn't give me my tickets. Eat before you come cause the pizza is bad. There isn't as much of an animitronics show I remebered and Chucky only comes out if it's your birthday and buy a cake.
Review Source:i have a birthday twin (well, i have many, but one in particular who i always celebrate with), and we always throw a joint party for all our friends. each year, we strive to one up the previous year. ever since Fall of 2006, this has been nearly impossible because the party was just *that* good.
we decided we needed the perfect mix of kid and adult fun. so what better way than to reserve a party at chuck e cheese's for 30 big kids (part 1 of the birthday extravaganza), then head to nearby liar's club for some pure adult entertainment (part 2)? :)
it was AWESOME. we giggled. we played. we did it our way. :)
our friends snuck in flasks of whiskey that we used to doctor up our cokes. we ate up pizza after pizza and played countless games, earning tickets and claiming prizes along the way. the birthday boy and i even got to dance with chuck himself!!
what was really nice about this concept was that my friends with little kids of their own were able to attend at least part 1 of the party - and their kids had a ball! (i am responsible for turning one of my friend's sons on to the crack that is chuck e cheese. every time they drive past one, he freaks out and demands a fix. i am a bad influence!)
i highly recommend this to any adults who are still kids at heart :)
I always wondered where little kids learn swear words and trash talk. Â After my most recent visit with my daughter, I think I've figured it out. Â
While enjoying quality time with my offspring, some gang-bangin wanna be (think old Vanilla Ice videos) walked in with his "girlie" and started talking like he was gonna "gat" someone. Â Dude, find a mentor.
Better yet, get a hug from Chuck E. Cheese
Word.
If I was a kid these days I would hope my mommy and my daddy would not take me to this particular Chuck E Cheese. Â The whole scene is such a sad mess. . .
How can only one Skee-ball machine be working!?! Â Criminal.
$10 = 50 tokens = 1/2 hour of game time. Â 30 minutes? Â And with all those broken games, finding a spot to put your tokens is a challenge. . . unless you you ask the kid at the basketball toss to bend over. Didn't his parents teach him how to take turns? Â Oh yeah, they are making out in a corner booth aka using a public place as a babysitter again.
I appreciate that someone invited my child here to celebrate their child's birthday today.
But why does this place exist? I've said it before: The Tenth Muse is Mediocrity.
I don't understand the lack of imagination that could allow someone to entertain children in this overstimulating, noisey, money-sucking corporate cauldron.
Sometimes I think Chuck E Cheese was inspired by someone's evil acid trip.
Chuck E Cheese is not a good idea on a friday night especially when you don't have a pack of bratty kids like everybody else. We split a medium cheese pizza and it was rather greasy. Â I don't remember it being that bad when i was a little kid. Â At least we are able to get our fill of skeeball and animatronic Chuck E Cheese showroom. Â I don't think I will be coming back here again, unless I need an replenishment of crappy plastic toy dinosaurs.
Review Source:Out of lust for skee-ball and our general embarrassing love of old crappy kid stuff, my bff and I stopped by Chuck E Cheese. Â The pizza was a gut bomb at best and the service was about on par with the Jewel at Ashland and Milwaukee. Â At least we got some laughs out of the awesome robotronic characters of Chuck E Cheese's band and were able to get enough tickets at Skee-Ball to win a plastic dinosaur. Â I seriously remember this place being a lot more fun as a kid. Â Maybe that's because I'm too big for the rides now.
Review Source:This chuck e cheeses is always crowded and the staff are not very friendly. We came in with a group of 16 kids and so we didn't have money to pay for each one a drink....but they were out of water cups and offered no other option for drinking. Rediculous. I was very disappointed, and felt bad because we couldn't help the kids.
