Look, is a Chuck E Cheese, they provide the same experience no matter which one you go to. This one is on the smaller side, but still has a bunch of games, prizes, dancing with the Mouse himself, and they even have a trampoline! We had a fun party there and the wings, pizza, and fries weren't half bad.
Pretty expensive myself my two kids $80 for food and 30 mins of play.. Basically 1 hour for food and play time $80 .. But my kids did like the Churros.. $5 Our pizza was cold.. wings are hot.. Maybe they waiting for wings to be done .. Got stuff crust but not worth it if the pizza is cold...
I went here with my 5 years old (I'm a nanny) and we had a great time! The staff is very friendly and helpful. There are a lot of arcade games and a trampoline attraction so there's a lot of fun garantices. Great place to go with kids and have fun playing! As for the food, I haven't tried but the people there loved the pizza! ??
The staff was fine. The corporate app and fun pass policies are dumb. I bought the annual fun pass a couple months ago but never used the app to do so, I bought it direct from the staff at register. They gave us the cards and said we were good to go. Now apparently you have to scan the app to use the fun pass. So it took 5 min to download the app inside the store due to weak signal. Then the app doesn't allow me to register an account under the phone number for my fun pass account. Plus there is no wa
I spent over $40 for food the pizza was burnt and the cookie was raw. As far as service they did try to fix it but each time never the same great yummy pizza and cookie that I was used to food sucks now Don't recommend it at all. Eat at McDonald's before you come and just get a play card.
The place has so much fun for ages 3-12. Our birthday party guests had an amazing time. We were so grateful to our birthday host Ariana. She was extremely nice generous and great with the kids. The birthday party packages are wonderful. Thanks for an amazing time
The reason to go to Chuck E. Cheese is clearly for kid?s fun, not for food or table service. The food is WAY, WAY overpriced, and portions are tiny and sad. We spent about $40 for a VERY small pizza, a small order of pathetic chicken nuggets, and two waters. Nevertheless, our grandson had a great time meeting Chuck E. Cheese himself, and riding the rides and playing games. We'll go back, but only after eating a meal at home first.
The only good thing is the arcade part, which was somewhat fun for our kids. The food portions are very very small and overpriced also not good of a quality. They charge $10 per kid for Trampolines, which is ridiculous. Prime example of corporate greed.
Compliments on the thrilled kids, unfortunately my nephew got too many dam prizes that the house got clutered. I slipped the house cleaner a tip and told her to junk anything that looked like CHUCK E CHEESE collection. He never even knew they were gone.
Haven't been in a CC for a while. Went in to play games with my grandson. We had a lot of fun and played around.
Good clean fun for the kids. No complaints. Games were working and the unlimited fun pass is definitely worth purchasing. We've enjoyed chuckie cheese multiple times this week.
Staff is friendly, place is clean. we had a great time enjoyed the play and hangout. Kids don't care they had lots fun and don't want to leave. We would love to hangout again there. It was also a Wednesday night not many people around it was good I can see where are all the kids
Everything is well spaced out. Bring your kids' grippy socks if they want to play in the trampoline area, or they'll tell you to buy their socks.
A great establishment for kids and teens, good American food and great arcade fun,a nice chance to obtain cool prizes, has bathroom access for both genders.
This Chuck E Cheese has good management and great customer service. The place doesn't get too crowded and gets sanitized on a regular and the bathrooms are clean. The salad bar and veggies are fresh and the pepperoni and cheese Pizzas were great. Good place for birthday parties with affordable packages and lots of fun games.
I was very happy and so were my nieces staff showed great concern for safety but also great care for the family and kids.
I have been to this location for Birthday parties many times with my son and he always enjoyed playing the games over there. The service is okay. They should add some new stuff to grab more attention from the kids.
We went just for pizza, it's really for kid's parties and things like that, but the pizza was good, the place and the staff were good.
I cannot express how impressed I am with this location. The staff were so accommodating with the additional kids that came to the party that did not rsvp. They were very fast with providing us with the supplies we needed to accommodate them and they did it with a very positive and kind attitude. One of the ladies there I think she was the manager, saw me getting a little frazzled and with a calm, soft voice in the middle of chaos said to me: ?don't worry, mama. We got it.? The anxiety quickly left me and I
Pizza is ok.. Terrible expensive boneless chicken.. Processed frozen food.. Games are old.. My 7year old was bored..
We recently had a great experience here for my niece?s fourth birthday party. The workers did their best to provide an enjoyable environment and all games were up to date! She had a blast!
Great place for kids. Many games and activities are available for kids. I like their weekday lunch buffet with unlimited pizza (cheese, pepproni and vegetable) and salad. They host birthday parties too.
Very different from the Chuck E. Cheese experience I grew up with! The venue was clean and well-lit with an open floor plan. The patina of grease and grime from my childhood was nowhere to be found. The staff were attentive and helpful. They worked hard to make sure everyone's birthday parties went smoothly. They did a good job of channeling the chaotic energy of the 40-50 sugar-rushed children in positive directions and averting a full-on "Lord of the Flies" situation. The "all you can play" cards preven
My kid had an amazing play date. The games were so much fun and the girls had the best of their time. Food was amazing too. Been a long time since I went there and they have made a lot of improvements. Love to go there again.
Workers are extremely nice and always go above and beyond when I bring my niece there. Food is always delicious and fresh. I love how they have so many things you can redeem on their app for doing so little. My niece always enjoys her time there and it even brings out the kid in me lol I heard there's a trampoline inside this location too? Just wanting to make sure that's accurate from what I read online? Definitely will be booking my niece?s birthday party here come December.
Grand Re-Opening! (Never been to this location before) Super clean. Employees are everywhere. Nice jump area, my kid didn't jump though (3 y.o.) The games worked. Cake tastes great. Open space for birthday parties. We will be back in a couple of weeks for a birthday celebration so hopefully I'll still feel the same way. The only thing they need is plenty more of us trash cans!!
Chuck really needs to up its food game. Pizza and Salad quality just aren't cutting it for the Adults; who keep in mind are the ones with the money you need to draw in for the business. You can still be a business for the kids without completely ignoring the food needs of the adults. Please improve the pizza by making it fresh and add fresh toppings. The pizza tastes like frozen microwavable pizza. Considering adding other Italian favorites like pasta carbonara, chicken Parm, etc. Need to think more like a
Took my kids couple of weeks ago, and they had lots of fun. The place was super clean and tidy and the staff and the manager were very attentive and professional. I will come back again for sure and I definitely recommend it.
It was pretty lame definitely not meant for kids older than 4 years old most of the games were dirty and all greasy at least four Games took my money without play would highly recommend any other Chuck-E-Cheese than this one
A lot of games were out of service. I was waiting something better for the price.
I didn't have the greatest experience at this location. When me and my family entered, we had to take a selfie? I thought that was a little odd but not a huge deal, I understand why it was implemented but just not what I'm accustom to from years of being a guest at chucky cheese. Secondly, when I asked the lady at customer service what was included in the package, she told me everything for the amount of minutes you purchase but then another employee approached me about my child jumping on the trampoline? I
I was surprised how clean it was and the pizza isn't terrible.
This Chucky E Cheese is excellent, but I am not of fan of it. But the kids love it. I gave my daughter a party here and recommended a mom to this location. The manager is very involved. I saw her again. She didn't remember me, but I remembered her from my daughter's party in February. The staff here is kind. I applaud them all. I can't imagine this is an easy job with so many children daily. If you're looking for a nice place for your kiddos to hang out at Chucky E Cheese, this is nice and clean.
It was not for us. Concept is good and the place was rather clean but there are little things to do for toddlers that won't get stimulated. Most of the attractions are for older kids. And trampoline is expensive.
This place is a good place to bring younger kids to play. The games are geared towards younger kids. It's fairly clean and if you go early it's fairly empty. We threw a birthday party here and it's a good place for a party. The staff was excellent and so helpful. The various things that come with the party are great. Play card for guests, pizza, drinks, a voucher for ice cream and goodie bag for the guests. So easy that you really don't need to do much besides sending your invites and determining yo
Tickets and games tokens are all electronic now. No more lines at the ticket munchers.
Got Wednesday special $14.99 FOR 1hr unlimited play! Had a ball!!
We attended a birthday party and everyone enjoyed themselves. It's been over 20 years since I've been to a Chuck E Cheese, but the space is nice and the games are what you'd expect at any indoor arcade.
The kids had a great time. It was clean and everyone was helpful.
I am a caregiver that is helping a mother with 3 children. The two youngest ones have autism. The mom bought pizza and salad for her family. The baby and her 2 year old son made a mess on the floor. The mother was ridiculed for letting that happen by a female manager . All plates and silverware were thrown away by me. Unacceptable. I thought chucky cheese was accepting of all kids. Do better!
We are from Pittsburgh. We traveled due to my granddaughter s appointment at the Amen Clinic. We promised her if she did well at two days of appointments we would go to see Chuck E Cheese. It was the cleanest...the most welcoming and kind center we have gone too. The workers take pride in the work they do and they are great w kids. It was very safe...great job...we have to go back again and we will definitely return to that center..
We have has lots of parties at CEC but a recent visit was one of the best. Our hostess was great, attentive and sweet. The place wasn't super crowded and the kids had a great time with the unlimited game play. And they have made amazing improvements to the pizza and wings. I was also floored by the fact that adults could her beer and wine. Will definitely be back!
My kids had a blast! Second Tuesday of every month, they have special price!! Do not miss it out.
My son loves the different games at this one, also very clean!
The birthday was fun, but this place is somewhat dated. Pizza was adequate, fine fare for kids. Service was good. Games are all rather old. The Angry Birds game was fun and a favorite for my daughter along with skee ball.
My kids and I had SO much fun here! Very clean! The manager is so friendly and incredibly helpful. This was our first time and we will definitely be back again very soon.
Good place for kids. Good relaxing time for parents. The major issue that administration has to look at is, cleaning the place. Lot of food and plates left on the tables and some times it's hard to find place to sit. I think it's customer's responsibility to put trash in trash bins after eating.
5 stars for the atmosphere. Clean and newly renovated. Kids had a great time running around and playing.
Ion like the small food potions but like its igh nd i fw the placr
This place is just amazing! We had our son?s birthday party here and it was a super hit! Our birthday host Hajra and the manager were so friendly and helpful! Hajra was on top of everything and made sure the party was super fun but also organized. Hajra along with the manager and other staff set up a ton of other extra decor stuff that we brought in with us. There were 22 kids at the party and every single one of them had a blast! The place was super clean, we saw someone from the staff sanitizing everythin
Kids love this Chuck E Cheese much more compared to others (I.e Fairfax location) for the simple fact that they still have the large ?jungle gym? tunnels, ladders and slides. Some of the other Chuck E. Cheese?s in the area have taken theirs out in favor of virtual dance floors, those are great but they aren't for everyone. When I pay for my child?s amusement, I'd like them to burn off some energy and not just play the arcade games, this place has it all though. 4 solid stars.
The cleanest Chuck E. Cheese by far that I've seen in some time! Everything was great. One game was monopolized by a single family hoarding tickets. I would have liked management to step in after 10 or 15 minutes or so, let alone the 90+ minutes (not exaggerating!) they spent there. Other than that, no complaints, a good time was had by all!
Great atmosphere for children and parties.
My kids don't like this place anymore I mean there are no good games and they give you less tickets and usually the games are either out of tickets or they just don't work. Another thing is I pay a lot of money for the coins and my kids get less tickets and they don't have fun with the games. when they go get their prizes all they get is a cheap plastic toy that costs about 5-10 cents. I will never come here again it's a waste of money and time.
Changed for the better. They changed the floor plan by taking away some games. Before, it used to be crowded and congested. Now, you can clearly see across the room and see you child. The games are all new, and modern. Food has improved, much better for kids, and adults. They also have beer fyi. Better games, and variety of prizes for kids to win.
Beautiful setup for kids to go crazy. Soft matted. Free playarea to climb. Tickets can be bought to play digital n other console games. Pizza is not that gud. If you collect tickets receipts of two three visits, you can buy some good toy. For tickets more than 2500 has gud toy options.
Wonderful experience. We went for a 7 year olds birthday. Chuckie was fun and filled with energy. Pizza was hot and fresh. Kids loved it. Friendly staff, clean environment. Recommend for a child's birthday party.
Birthday party there was good. Pizza is surprisingly tasty, kids got to take home the fun cups and a balloon. Games are the icing on the cake, so to speak. It's a little chaotic there, but that's to be expected, I suppose.
I go here once a week every week. My son has so much fun and the staff is so friendly. They always give my son extra tickets or an extra prize. When chuckee comes out, he's so friendly with the kids and always takes pictures with my son.
One of the best places to have birthday parties for your kids. Tasty pizza and games. Package deal with all you can play card for 2 hours.
The staff was very friendly. Food is what I expected. Some of the machines were missing pucks or balls but there were a lot of machines and the kids had a blast.
One word: clean. Food solid, but clean and spacious . They have beer and teenage mutant ninja turtle 4 player game. Ninja turtles arexa sign of a good chuck e cheese. Rest rooms spacios and...clean.
I was not happy at all. I have requested 120 point and the gantelment ring me up. After spending about an hour, we decided to spend the rest next time. At the registration we check the points. we last all the point from the last time we played with the kids. So, thanks they fixed that. And they mentioned that we still have time to play. I said we will be back next time. So the gentalment sold to us not point, but minutes. After requesting to fix that we lost a lot of the points, they gave us only 60 points
Children enjoy the games and collect tickets that can be traded for some nice toys. Best place for birthday parties. The staff are well trained to handle the crowd. Overall a nice place for kids.
No one goes here for the food. But they keep the salad bar well stocked which is nice. The real draw here is the super kind and friendly staff. We've been here multiple times and have not had one negative experience. The store is also kept very clean.
The parking here was an awful experience with three children. The facility was nice and clean. The games are spaced out enough to not feel like you're bumping into people at every turn. This particular location is the better of the bunch!
Music is soooooo freaking loud. My kid literally freaked out due to the loud music and I had a headache. This is a place for kids no need for it to be that loud god!!!
Glad to see is got re - opened a gain that kid's can join playing and having fun times. It was very clean and so many things got changed. I was so happy to go and see my grand kids and spending times with them. Thank you !
Great place for kid?s birthday party. Lot of fun
Very big and nicely maintained. Lots of space for parties good selection of games with jackpots as well. All the staff we interacted with were helpful and friendly.
The new play unlimited cards are excellent. No need to worry about refilling the cards, getting tickets etc. Best part is, once the time runs out - kids know it is time to go home!!
I miss good all days chuck e cheese.. the pizza was good.. but the prices are ridiculous.. I spent $80 just for 1 hr play for 2 kids each and 1 pizza.. not affordable.. now we can only come on rare occasions because of the prices.. and we only choose time vs the points bc the games are now up to 3 points each.. not surprised on a saturday night it was barely anyone there...
You can always count on a great time when visiting this Chuck-E-Cheese. Our most recent visit was on a weekday afternoon, which tends to be a lot less crowded. There's always familiar faces with the staff, which in turn helps create a trusting environment.
I did my daughter?s birthday party here and my helper John was GREAT! Helped me so much made the party go A lot smoother for me my daughter and all her little friends had such a great time! Thanks again John!!!
Loses 2 stars because skeeball is 66K points to hit the jackpot. 66K is ridiculous. It's a miracle to get 20k how about make it more sensible number like 25-30k for the jackpot. Not like you'll lose money giving away 100 tickets that's good for just 3 little lollipops.
Very clean environment. It was moderately crowded when we visited. Food is bit cheesey and lot of cheese in the pizza. Children like the food. Salad is decent. Sometimes it is tough in parking.
This place is good for kids but has become so routine. In last 12 yrs just few minor changes I have seen. Birthday parties are ok, not so great.
Chuck e cheese is always fun for all ages if you love playing archade games. We always prefer to go on a weekday when you will find least amount of rush. Food choices include variety of pizzas and salad.
It's Chuck E. Cheese. Take your kids there to ride rides while you drink cheap beer.
Service was beyond helpful. Food is fresh and hot. You can make your own salad. The place is clean and big enough for a very large group. Highly recommend for it's freshness!
I'm quite disappointed with most of the Chuck E. Cheese's around the DMV. This place is the same as the others in our area. Ok customer service, ok food, and always crowded with kids who don't abide by the age restricted area. Monkey Joe's will keep my loyalty and money!
Great place for kids and I'm visiting after my second child. Still find it appealing as much as the first place. I think they need a makeover and need to understand the new generation.
We were there for a friend?s birthday party. Many of the machines were not operational, the photo booths were not printing photos, and the staff seemed to be too busy with other tasks to address the problems.
I'm sorry but this is a review of their pizza. We used uber eats to get some of this pizza delivered, and it is a stain on the underpants of what the legacy of Chuck E. Cheese pizza tasted like. We come from a proud line of Chuck E. Cheese enthusiasts, and the pizza served here, is served in the nightmares of Chuck E. Cheese.
Surprisingly nice! I haven't been to a CeC in a while, so when I stopped in, I found everything clean, organized, and the prices looked fair.
I won't take my kids here again, it's a waist of time and money. Staff is very rude and disrespectful.
Kids had a great time. The games are well spaced so there's room to move around and still lots of fun to be had.
I came here years ago with children, I was never happy. But NOW I came with grandchildren. Wow, super! Clean. Food you can eat! And the kids are having a blast.
It’s a mix of nostalgia and high-energy fun! Many arcades blend retro classics like Pac-Man and pinball with modern VR games, racing simulators, and rhythm challenges — often with music, lights, and a social vibe.
Both can be great! Solo visits let you focus on your favorite games, while going with friends adds competition, teamwork, and laughs. Many people plan arcade meetups as a casual hangout or even date spot.
Usually just yourself and a way to pay (some arcades still use coins, others use cards or apps). If you're competitive, bring your A-game. If you're social, bring friends or meet new ones over multiplayer games.
Weekdays or early afternoons are usually less crowded — perfect for focused play. Evenings and weekends bring the buzz, especially at barcades or venues with DJs, tournaments, or themed nights.
Absolutely! Arcades attract a mix of casual players and serious gamers. Whether you're jumping into a four-player co-op or chatting between rounds, it's a fun, low-pressure way to connect over shared interests.
Not at all. While many arcades are family-friendly, there are also adult-oriented ones with full bars, 18+ nights, or vintage nostalgia themes. Arcades today cater to everyone — from first-timers to lifelong gamers.
Yes! Many arcades host regular competitions, retro nights, cosplay parties, and more. Whether you're into high scores or just want to watch and vibe, events add an extra layer to the experience.
No worries — arcades are about having fun, not being perfect. Try a variety of games, ask others for tips, and remember: the vibe is more “let’s play” than “let’s win.”
Arcade prize games are a thrilling highlight in 2025! Claw machines, skee-ball, and ticket-redemption games like basketball offer a rush of skill and chance, with rewards like plushies, toys, or electronics up for grabs. Modern machines feature vibrant lights, digital scoreboards, and responsive controls, amplifying the fun. The lively arcade atmosphere, with cheering crowds and buzzing energy, makes every win feel epic.
