What do guests say about the team?
-
Updated games and tentative staff made my kids feel happy. Pizza came out great! We even had to go back and order another pizza. I forgot to mention that the wings were delicious. The most important thing for me was seeing my son come out of Chuck E. Cheese excited about his experience. We will continue to come for my kids birthdays and special events!
Luis S. from Huntington Beach, CA -
The staff was friendly, the restaurant was clean, and all of the games were working properly. The food was excellent, and most importantly, my kids had an absolute blast! We had a great experience and will definitely be coming back.
Mike G. from Costa Mesa, CA -
The staff was incredible and very helpful throughout the party! Kids had a wonderful time! Would love to celebrate here again and will absolutely be returning for playing regularly too!
Ady S. from Costa Mesa, CA -
We come often enough here and it is easy. Sometimes it is crowded, but the staff does its best to get everyone taken care of as quick as possible. You have to be pleased with your staff since we have gone to other locations and the willingness to help isn't always there.

What do guests say about birthday parties here?
-
Very well organized the day of. I also appreciated a call before as well to help coordinate. The host was efficient and communicated throughout the party. I would recommend a party to every parent I know. Very nostalgic and appropriate for the age range. My guests enjoyed the experience as millennials who haven't gone to CEC since childhood. Very happy with the experience and my son, the "birthday star" who keeps talking about his "best birthday ever!"
Sireene V. from Lynwood, CA -
Party planning was smooth, just had to tell them number of kids and they did the rest between set up and clean up, it's the best hassle free party to plan! Staff is so incredibly hardworking, keeping the food and party effortless for host.
Christine T. from Costa Mesa -
Chuck E Cheese was the perfect place to celebrate my husband's 70th Birthday. We have 9 grandchildren and throwing a party there was fun for the kids and the parents enjoyed playing games with them. It's a friendly and safe environment for all. Thank you Chuck E Cheese for throwing a great party.

While I was there I saw the manager on the floor. The employees were attentive and helped me book my son's birthday party there. I also saw them clean literally everything. I've never seen a place clean so efficiently. Cleanliness is a big deal when it comes to taking my children somewhere.
