Great place. Lots of arcade machines.
There's this one piece of gum in the carpet next to my favorite game machine, monkey barrel. It's just sitting there.
I love playing the games despite most of them being outdated and somewhat old, but I love that retro-ish feeling! Unlike the gum patch that is just on the floor. It's black and hard as a rock when poked with a straw. Every time I pass it, it's like reliving a nightmare over and over. I swear I have ptsd from that thing. It disrupts my gaming sessions whenever my knee touches it. Whenever I get in contact with it, I dry heave and start to feel lightheaded and dizzy. It's been there for about a week since I revisited it about a week after the infamous gum incident, to see it has now collected a single hair. Genuinely disappointing.
I love the animatronics, but Jesus, their old Chuck e cheese robot rarely starts and his eyes are just closed and his stage is completely unlit. Sometimes he will start up slightly and move his head to the side and one of his arms will just raise straight up. Almost like he's signaling for help. I swear he's alive. His stage is a small apartment looking room with this bird on an old television. I swear this would be the home of a sick mad dude. It's not even the newer cute looking logo, it's the chuck e from 2002. It feels like you got catfished when you see a cute mouse on the front, but instead get greeted with a terrifying 6 foot tall rat costume with a shirt that just has the letter C on it and green underwear. Doesn't even look like pants, he just looks like a sad old man.
The gum on the carpet is the most repulsive thing I've ever seen at an arcade in my life.
As I said before, it's like you're getting catfished with a cute mouse on the logo but the actual animatronic mascot is big and ugly. Instead of the normal cute mouse on their big sign, they should just replace it with the first image I have listed below.
One time I was playing a coin pusher game and just won a ton of tickets. Once my tickets were done printing (back when you still got physical tickets) I looked for my mom to show her my tickets, but literally right behind me stood the Chuck e cheese outfit right behind me with one hand completely raised up. I'm pretty sure he was trying to give me a high five but I cannot be sure. It felt like Chuck e was furious with my winnings, which absolutely scared me half to death. But at the time I was 9 years old, 6 years ago I just thought everyone was mad at me. but why did he raise his hand straight up? So creepy. A while later I went to the ticket muncher machine for it to count my tickets. I never even realized how some poor child's hair could have been caught and ripped off in that thing. probably why they got rid of it and switched to play cards. I ended up getting the ugliest Chuck e cheese plush ive ever seen in my life but it was like a thousand tickets and that's pretty much all i had so I got it (second picture below)
UPDATE: one week later, and the gum is partially removed. I can see the area they attempted to remove the gum. There's a mark. Drinking fountains are cold as ever but I don't understand why they are serving alcohol to adults who are going to be driving back home with...
Read moreI took my 2 1/2 yr old grandson for his first time after not having been in quite some time thinking it would be a great time! We used to frequent ChuckyECheese when my children were younger and also with his older siblings until Covid hit. The drastic change to food/beverages being extremely over-priced as well as it being cold and our order was taken incorrectly. When brought to the attention of the guy making the food he was extremely rude and unhelpful. Play/meal packages do not save you any money and when figuring out the play pass card they are not forth coming on how it works. Chucky's band mates have been replaced with flat screens, which we could watch at home, the person in the Chucky suit had no energy or personality for the kids, stayed out briefly the 2 times he came out with no dancing/music fun as before and many games didn't work but took the token price off your card. Kids don't know that so if you purchased the tokens instead of timed play half of your tokens were wasted. The final nail in the coffin was the fact that there was nobody checking arm stamps when leaving in spite of them having enough people. Anyone could have walked out with ANY child! Why even put the stamp on?!?! We also didn't get it immediately upon walking through the door but from an employee who came from behind the counter after we ordered and were walking off. Once again I stress..... Anyone could have freely walked out with ANY child! Went there thinking it was the ChuckyECheese of old, DEFINITELY is not!...
Read moreStopped in this Chuck E. Cheese for dinner on the way home to Austin. It definitely is one of the worst Chuck E. Cheese’s I’ve been to. To start, when I was ready to order I made eye contact a few times with the cashier. She then chose to flirt with another employee near the Salad bar. The bathroom was disgusting. The pizza was horrible. I’ve had very good pizza at other locations but this one was almost like thin crust pizza. Multiple games were not working or accepted our card but did not have any balls to actually play the game. Then to end the visit, we are waiting at the merch counter and the young man behind the counter seems to be the only respectable employee. He was the only one I seen cleaning and actually came to help kids get their prizes while his coworker stood by the register talking on FaceTime. The young man actually had his shirt tucked in and apologized to me for the wait as he took our game card. (He seemed to be embarrassed by his coworker for not helping at the counter) He was the only reason I gave this visit a 2 star instead of a 1. This place was ran by nothing but lazy teenagers with no sense of good work ethics. I worked at Chuck E. Cheese years ago in high school but our generation actually had standards for uniforms and customer service unlike what we...
