I can't believe the last time we took the kids to this Chuck E Cheese was in 2008 and that was to celebrate our oldest son's 6th birthday. Saturday we had a birthday party to attend. It's summer so obviously it was BUSY. Lots of kids, parents and teenagers. The food is still the same. I like Chuck E Cheese pizza. But the crowd has gotten GHETTO. There were people smoking outside and some rude parents with no consideration for little kids. My son Evan wanted to ride the monster truck. I told him to wait his turn. He waited 3+ times while the parents with their toddler hogged it and took pictures. After awhile Evan got mad and said loudly "it's MY turn now mommy. They won't get off". I took the high road and told him "let's go find something else to do". That's sad to me. We don't let our kids ride anything more than once if there's a line :\ Hubby already said we won't be returning unless for a birthday party. We'll find other places to take our kids for some fun minus the ghettoness. read more

I agree with the other Yelpers that this place is dirty. Tables had garbage on them and nobody bussed them. I wonder if the game machines ever get wiped down? I sure hope so as there were tons of kids sneezing and coughing everywhere! The girls working at the front where kids can get their prizes were all huddled together talking and not reedeming tickets and giving out prizes in a timely manner... it was so frustrating! read more

Just left my daughters 8th bday. I paid for the highest party for 4 kids and was totally neglected. There were 2 other parties going and the following list is all that happened. I think I was neglected because we had the least amount of kids and spending the least amount of money. I was appalled and disgusted by the treatment we received. I asked for a full refund and didn't get it. Party at 11am, didn't open until 11am. 11:15 was told one host for 2 parties 11:22 still don't have tokens Name spelled wrong on photo cutout 11:30 got tokens 11:08 just got to table 1 party assistant for 3 parties Cake gunk on paper plates 11:30 no princess cape Didn't announce her name during chuck e cheese show along with one other party Host not engaging with birthday girl 12:32 no piñata 12:38 never got cape Girl shirt kept coming up while leading celebration. Didn't clear our table Only focused on on one table Host was checking phone during celebration and talking on microphone 1245 no piñata I did get a refund for no piñata and no cape and tiara. Worst part was the end. The girl cleaning my table was not waiting for us to grab our things. I asked her if she could wait until we were done. She Grabbed the black platter holding my pizza and THREW my pizza on the already dirty table. She never asked me if I wanted to keep or if I wanted a box. So horribly rude even after i was kind even though the service was bad. Good luck if you have a party here. read more

Love how the pizza come out ! Definitely pizza from here is good fresh dough ! Good food quality! Service is always good. feel welcome every-time I come to enjoy the games with my kids ! Brings me child hood memories ! No complaints from me at all cause every time I come I get treated good and welcomed Thank you Chuck E Cheese keep up the good work !! read more

Wowwwwwie, coming to this location makes me reevaluate my entire childhood and realize the innocence of my youth. I've had great memories here as a kid, buckets full of tokens, pizza parties, etc. Coming back and seeing how much this place changed honestly makes me sad at how much this location has changed since I last was here. (And not necessarily for the better.) I came here to take my brother and sister here for their birthdays, and my first reaction upon walking in is WOW, it's COMPLETELY DIFFERENT from when I used to come as a kid. The games are a lot different then when I remembered it as well, they upgraded to a few more modern games as well, such as Fruit Ninja, Guitar Hero, and Temple Run. The games themselves are enjoyable, though if you're expecting to win a lot of tickets and redeem them for something huge, I would reconsider that thought. I feel like if anything the price to prize ratio is completely ridiculous. At the redeeming table, 100 tickets is about the worth of a dollar, and big ticket items (really small stuffed animals) are about 1,500 tickets, or $15, which is absolutely ridiculous. Most games let you win 5-10 tickets at most per game unless you try for one of those higher chance games, like the ball drop or the Big Spin game, but the odds are still rare at best. I'll admit I even enjoyed playing skeeball in the back as well, hehe. I would avoid the building block balancing game just because I'm pretty sure they've never sanitized the controller and you'll be left with the residue of kids' grubby pizza grease hands all over your hands. Am I the only one that thinks that they don't sanitize any of the games...? Definitely bring some sanitizing wipes after or wash your hands after playing, the oil residue is disgusting. The pizza is a grease ball. When you get your pizza it's soaked in oil and tastes like tough cardboard. I may not be a pizza connosiour but I'm pretty sure a good pizza shouldn't be coated in a super thick layer of obvious oily grease. No wonder the salad bar is in the back to help balance it out. There isn't much variety in that, either. When redeeming our prizes, my brother and sister stood at the counter for over 10-15 minutes deciding on what they wanted. The guy working over the counter seemed pretty impatient the longer they stood there and seemed very irate. I couldn't really blame him for his impatience because we did stand there for awhile, but it made me feel really uncomfortable at him staring my siblings and I down deciding what we wanted. Overall all of my siblings (6, 10, and surprisingly even my 13 year old brother) really enjoyed coming here. If you want your kids (from 5-10) to have a great time, this is an okay place to take them. I would highly recommend looking up coupons on their website first though, for better deals, as has gotten pricier over time. Also if you want free tokens go & download the app & play the game, you can get 1,000 free tickets, which is way better and much more worth it then trying to win the tokens by game instead! And yes, even though I am an adult I will admit I had (a teeny bit) of fun. :) read more

Chuck E. Cheese - Sausage Pizza & Pepperoni Pizza! - Pizza Near Me - Newark, California

Oh my what can I say about this establishment. OK so i came here because my friends sister was in town on vacation. We took her kids there it was packed. In our party there was four adults & three kids. We found a table, ordered our food. Then of course the kids went to play this one particular kid that day was out stealing kids tokens & just being a nuisance!!! No parent or guardian around looking after this kid or kids. I don't know if it was just this particular day or the crowd is just normally like this. Well I don't think I'd be back unless I have to. It wasn't the establishment yet it was the people that go here that make it hard to want to come back. read more

Well....you know...what can I say. Really. It's Chuck E. Cheese. Back in my days, it was theee place to be. As a kid, I loved the games, the pizza, and Chuck E! Now, today, as an adult, I find the place ghetto. HOWEVER, that will not stop us from coming here; the kids and I do have a little hood in us (well, very, very, very little hood...more like a smidget, or a speck). My children love coming here for birthday parties. And why would they not?! They get to be with friends, eat pizza, play games, win prizes...it's a win/win situation! As a parent hosting a party, it is awesome as well. The party packages are cheap, you come, you go, it's that easy! The hosts/hostesses are nice, upbeat, and they cater to your needs. I like their security system where everyone gets stamped before coming in and no one can leave without the stamp getting checked (adults/kids to match). I wish the place was cleaner though. As well as the clientele. read more

Was bamboozled on Door Dash because they used a fake name (Pasquale's Pizza) when it's really Chuck E Cheese. Pizza was horrible. They are better off using frozen Tombstones for their pizza. Keep it real and you wouldn't receive a bad review. If I could give less stars I would because my kids didn't even like the pizza. So happy I got a refund from Door dash because of your FAKE NAME!! read more

I like this Chuck E Cheese although it's small. They don't have many games but the toddler games are super appropriate and fun for my toddler. She doesn't engage much with the games at the one in Dublin however here she engages and play for hours at this location. She loves riding the horses, driving the tour bus, riding the motorcycle, and playing the games at this location. The staff moves slow but are Efficient and helpful, all of the machines were operable. I like this location. Only took one star away because they didn't have enough staff to meet the needs of customers. The food was super delicious. The chicken was burnt on a few pieces but everything else was perfect. I would visit again but too much of a good thing can turn bad so we will Chuck E. Cheese hop a bit. Lol. read more

This is what I see when I take my 3 year old to use the restroom?!? This is why people get sick. I will never go back again!!! read more

This is the saddest Chuck E Cheese! I went there with my daughter and found 6-7 machines busted, a few with no more tokens! Worst, with whatever games that were left, we won some tickets and to our pleasure (dismay), all but one ticket redemption machine was working. To make it more fun, the manager didn't give a s**t and said the game guy is off today and they can't do anything. All I have to do is wait in line for redeeming my tickets. AWEFUL EXPERIENCE! I've never seen this location in such a crappy condition. This is as bad (if not worse) as the Oasis in Newark. Needless to say, I'm never coming back again. read more

We come here all the time and the staff is great and excellent today though they had a full house and Young man dressed up in Chucky cheese costume who was awesome said hi to every client, pose for pictures made all the kids feel awesome everyone in the restaurant was very happy!!! I just found out that young man's name was Syed so just want to make sure we give him credit!!! Very nice job sir!!!! read more

Chuck E. Cheese - We come to this Chuck E. Cheese's all the time and the service is excellent and the staff is great!! - Pizza Near Me - Newark, California

Celebrated my son's 8th birthday here. He and his friends had a blast with the arcade games and didn't even want to eat pizza! The location is clean and has gotten a fresh coat of paint so everything looks new. I've taken a star away because I noticed our hostess was doing the bare minimum while the hostess for another party going on was on top of everything and made sure the other birthday boy's name was announced during the birthday song and dance with Chuckee, had a cake knife ready to go etc. For parents like us who are celebrating their kids birthday for the first time at Chuckee , it would be great if the hostess would introduce herself and let the host parents know what to expect and when. Overall, my kid and his friends had a lot of fun, the ticket blaster was cool, so I'd definitely celebrate his birthday there again next year if he wishes to. read more

I just went to my cousins party yesterday and this place was slammed. All tables were full, there were different ethnic backgrounds having parties, and the service was great. First off, the place is a bit small but the games were off top. I liked bowling, throwing the footballs, shooting hoops, taking pics with the family, and nesting the tickets to see how much I've got haha. Anyway, the pizza was actually hella good. My cousin ordered 15 pizzas, wings, nuggets, sodas, and others stuff. The pizza was crispy and good tasting. It's better than little Cesar's and dominos. The wings tasted like safeways hot wings which I like. Our server or host (Zawab) was excellent. He was on point with service, he had fun with us, and he even taught me how to play the ticket machine catcher haha. Some of the crowds were ratchet too. Anyway, I had fun and the food was pretty good. Good stuff! read more

At 6:30 on a Wednesday night it's dead. I could literally count on one hand when we showed up how many people were there. There are more employees cleaning then there are kids playing games. No bigger kids running around causing trouble. No waiting for a game. Super clean, the service was fast, low noise levels and even with such a limited crowd the giant mouse is walking around and giving the kids high fives. The pizza is just alright, it's about giving the kids some time to run around and have some fun. Midweek is the perfect opportunity to take advantage. read more

I am writing a review to one of the employees who I saw going out of his way for customers. His name is Paul. Although no super energetic greet at the door, he made sure to stamp all family members. Then I noticed him cleaning off the tables and asking customers if he can grab whatever and throw in the trash. My younger sister had money that got stuck and she didn't get a card, I quickly asked for help and politely told me, let me check these customers in and I will help you after. 1) I am so happy he said that instead of ignoring me 2) He came by as he said, found the problem and said I will get you a new card, let me know where you are sitting. 3) As we got the card, he was very generous to walk over and let us know everything was taken care of. He truly is a hard-working kid there and deserves the praises that I am giving. Chuck E Cheese can be very overwhelming when kids are running everywhere machines aren't working but he stayed on top of every customer he was serving and more. Thank you Paul. Keep it up! read more

Just had a birthday party for my son here and I have to admit I am extremely surprised. The service was great and the place has really changed. We haven't been here in a while so we expected to look like before but they have really cleaned it up and made it more friendly. Monica was our server and she did Ana amazing job checking in with us and updating on the schedule as we went. I would definitely recommend my friends to use this location. read more

Chuck E Cheese.. Chuck E Cheese.. I've only been to two branches (the other one in Hayward) and I should say that they're just the same. I had my son's 1st birthday at this branch 2 years ago. Then last week my family attended a birthday party at the same branch. Oh my, it was a chaos! It was a friday night. I suggest if you plan to have your child's birthday party here, it should be on a weekday like when I had my son's party. 3 stars for pretty decent food for a fair price and friendly staff. I suggest you sign up to get a special coupon. It really helps! read more

Chuck E. Cheese - Pizza Near Me - Newark, California

I come to this location,Because it beats Hayward. 1.) never leave ur items unattended anywhere! 2.) go look at the salad bar prior to ordering. Yes at times the lettuce is not crisp. (go 2 the Olive Garden picky folks) 3.) it's very clean for a place with hundreds of kids n and out. Concord n this 1 are neck n neck. 4.) overpriced parties (I just get a few tables n order a bunch of pizza) 5.) enjoy and print coupons online. read more

The staff is AMAZING in this location and let me tell you, they will make sure that you and your guests are having a GREAT time! They are very helpful and accommodating and they truly understand that you are trying to make sure that your LO is having a good time. I had a huge party for my sons birthday and they helped us get all the food together and seating it was just an incredible experience! I applaud the staff again for their superb customer service. The manager Joe and his staff did all they could to give great customer service. (I am currently looking to find my receipts since I made sure they wrote their names so I can thank them for their amazing service!) The manager Joe is amazing at his job and you can tell he cares about his customers. So I've always went to this Chuck E Cheese location as far as I could remember. Me and my siblings had our birthday parties here and so did our cousins. I am now taking my kids to this Chuck E. Cheese location and it is still a wonderful place to have a kids party. The place is clean and generally a lot of options to keep both kids and adults entertained. Obviously if you come during a weekend or a holiday, there will be lines for the games. WHICH IS WHY IT'S BETTER ON A WEEKNIGHT. Rookie mistake to book your party on Saturday! The place was well kept and the staff was AMAZING. The games were good and yes a few were out of service, but that's to be expected and honestly not that big of a deal when there's 50 other things to play on. Pizzas are pretty awesome too and they were delicious! You have to get their cinna sticks, yummmmm! They are a bit pricey but you are paying for the experience. I like that they have started the unlimited time slot instead of the tokens. That way you don't loose the tokens! Or take it home, "hoping" you can remember to bring them on your next visit. Plus once the time is up, you can tell your kids it's time to go! =) If you are looking for a fun, safe, laid back(for the parents) experience for your kid just to be a kid, take them to Chuck E. Cheese in Fremont! I guarantee you and your LO will have an amazing time! read more

Came here with my friend and our children, pretty much spent the whole day here, despite some of the Chuck E. Cheese's that I've been to this is really one the best! Super clean, staff walking around every minute sanitizing everywhere, great tables near the entrance so you can see & watch out for your kids. Salad bar is really decent & clean, kids love the pizza & games! We orders two small cakes even though we weren't celebrating a birthday lol! Which yes they were still frozen, but Managment handled it more than well. We let them know that, hey these cakes are still frozen & being said that we ordered one chocolate & one vanilla they apologize & literally gave us 2 full sheet cakes of each flavor!!! We thought they were giving us one full sheet for 2 small cakes & they said no you guys ordered 2 cakes different flavors so we are giving you both a full sheet of each flavor. Our kids were super excited & we were more than grateful:)! Thanks to their professionalism & greatness. I live in Oakland, but definitely don't mind the drive to their location! Highly recommend this one. read more

This review is for the manager. I daughter redeemed a gyro with 2000 tickets. When we were back home and opened it, we found it didn't work. I went to the store and asked for an exchange or refund, the manager said their policy is to notify them the issue once we get the toy in the store...what makes me not happy is the Manager's attitude toward customer. She refused my request in an impolite way. We buy summer package every year and my daughter enjoys playing here. I can't believe she treats customer in this way which is not chuck e cheese style! Is chuck e cheese a fun place or kids? read more

Brought my little cousins who came from LA disappointed! 1.Most of the machines were either not working or froze while playing leaving u w no tickets or stealing your points. Staff did end up giving us the tickets but we had to wait around not worth it! 2. Ordered pizza/ they gave us a extra extra crusty pizza it tasted bad they re did it for us. 3. Their bathroom doors don't completely close and all of them except one had no seat covers n no no paper towels to dry hands. 4. Short staff therefore we wasted a lot of time waiting around. Thankfully I didn't pay buffet looks like they don't keep up with it. Place sucks won't be coming here anytime soon to spend $$$$ not worth the experience. read more

Came here thinking we'd try a different location but very disappointed. *A lot of the machines had error codes= no tickets *A few machines didn't work at all= it's a small location so not many games to begin with. *When you go up to the counter you have to wait at least 5 minutes minimum before anyone comes out of the back to help you. *I overheard a lady complain about waiting for her pizza for more than 30 minutes, mind you it's a Wednesday and like 20 people there. read more

After 40 minutes of wait for our food. We received super cold pizza. Informed manager but no action taken just walked away. What a bad customer service. Half of there games are not working. Food is cold. Pathetic customer service. Why the hell this place is still place. Just wasted over $100+ at this location. Not coming back for sure. read more

Chuck E. Cheese - Nasty place with no customer service. Dirty restroom. Bunch of high school kids who have no idea of hygiene. - Pizza Near Me - Newark, California

Place is good for an afternoon of fun for the kids. But a huge downer is a worker with the worst attitude. You can easily identify him with the girly ponytail and sour face. Luckily the manager is nice but get rid of the punk as he brings down the place. read more

This is the worst place I've ever been too!! I don't recommend anybody to take there family, nor there children. We found a piece of glass in our pepperoni pizza and when I brought it up to the managers (Craig) attention he didn't really seem to care, like really!! You know we could of choked on that piece of glass!! His words we're I'm just the manager, you can call the GM. I will be contacting the General Manager and the local health inspector. I will also, make sure to let my family and friends know, never to come here, so concerning! What do you feed your customers... Worst experience ever!!! read more

Chuck E. Cheese - Pizza Near Me - Newark, California

Came here with the fam for Sunday "Funday" but should have gone elsewhere. Half the games were either not working or were out of tickets! There was only one guy running around the play area trying to trouble shoot the games as well as reload the tickets!! Even the ticket counters were out of service- all but ONE of them! Can you imagine how annoyed the kids were while waiting for their turn?! Management really needs to step up at this location. We've been to other locations and this one by far is the worst! read more

The wait was also longer then expected as well 25+ minutes and I made my order in Advance by phone. If you already didn't see the pictures with the cross contaminating pizzas or pizza boxes. When I paid for my order one of the employees went to go get two boxes which I ordered.... if you guys are reheating pizzas just shut down the store. I encourage everybody to just go to the Hayward location there soda machine isn't broken either at the Hayward Chuck E. Cheese. read more

This review goes for the manager, and some of the staff as well. I took my nephews this past weekend, and could you believe that there were three games that we put credit in and all three did not work!! I asked Leo (the person checking people in) that I would like to speak to a manager and he did absolutely nothing about it. He said he was not allowed to leave his area, and had me look for someone else to help me. Minutes later I see him walking around laughing with his co workers(left his work area)... why do we have these kind of people working here???? Then I had to wait for about 20 minutes to speak to the manager in charge because he was just chit chatting with a family, giving them free cups instead of doing his job. He did nothing to help me. Never visiting this Chuck E Cheese ever again. read more

Ignore the bad reviews, they are mostly old from before the remodel and prior to new management. I am a mother of two boys, we live in Hayward but totally prefer to come to this location because it's much cleaner and safer in my opinion for the kids. We have been to this location several times now and always receive stellar customer service from the manager Joey, he is always so full of life and extremely helpful. Today we threw a party here for my sons 4th bday and we requested Joey. He took great care of us from the moment we arrived. He helped us in placing food orders for the guests, serving the cake as well as games/activities for the little ones. Decorations, table setup, balloons, souvenir cups, pizza/wings/salads... It was so nice to be able to come here and receive such solid customer service which led to a fun successful party! Thank you Joey for creating such a great party for my family and friends! Thank to for being our amazing party host! Definitely will be throwing other parties here! read more

I had a great experience here, wonderful and caring staff who helped me look for my daughters lost phone and eventually helped me find. We were treated with excellent customer service from begging to end and we really appreciate the hard work and value of all your employees. read more

About 1/3 of the games is out of service and there's basically no customer service at all. I waited at the counter to get a to go box for my pizza and it took me a good 10 mins to get anyone's attention. There's was about 5-6 staff members who were clocking in and out and no one bothered to ask if I needed help. I was standing right in front of them at the counter and no one was helping me for a good 15 mins. I rather go back to the Tully Chuck E. Cheese than come here again. Even the ticket counting machine was down! read more

PLEASE AVOID GOING TO THIS PLACE! Horrible experience and will never go back. Just getting inside and line is too long, waited 30mins just to get inside. Very crowded place and most of the machines is broken. Ordered pizza, chicken wings and drinks and it took almost 2 hours to get the food. Really? That long to get it ready? Only few employees and 1 cashier for packed playground. Inside the place also is so dirty, ano one cleaning the tables and floors. Wow! One of the worst place I've ever been. Spend more and hire more employees to make them happy. If you want to have same experience as ours...go try...or go somewhere else. read more

Chuck E Cheese Do's and Don'ts: DO: - come on a weekday, less crowded, more time for the workers to spray down the games/booths/rides - come prepared with hand sanitizer and the mindset that your kids will be germing it up (and hopefully boosting their production of antibodies to aforementioned germs) - be aware that a reservation requires 24 hours notice - know that the party packages are not great - unless you just want a bunch of useless stuff, and you still need to pay for food SEPARATELY - know that the Chuck E Cheese mascot does come out even on weeknights to say hi to the kids - be aware that the little cups for tokens are re-used and some can be *very* dirty/sticky DON'T: - come on a Friday, Saturday or Sunday. Unless you like the feeling of chaos caused by ghetto fabulous moms and dads and their progenies - expect it to be like SuperFrank's. Its SOoOoO not. - get fixated on the "Ew, Ew Ew!" factor of this place...just look how much fun your kids are having, and just don't forget to hose them down later. : ) read more

Chuck E Cheese... Where a kid can be a Kid.... And where adults can be kids too. My son loves this place. He begs me to bring him here. His 2nd and 3rd year birthdays were celebrated here and he always leaves with a smile on his face. 3 stars for this Chuck E cheese location. Maybe last year I would of given it 4 stars but after going to the Chuckees in Dublin,Ca a couple of weeks back.... I thought that location had much more better games. The games here are ok. It sure keeps my son entertained. The food at all Chuckees basically taste all the same. Vegetarian pizza is pretty good. I love the salad bar. Service is not bad. The only rant I have... The bathroom! Could be cleaner! A bit on the dirty side. Not as well maintained like the Dublin location. In my opinion having parties here can be pretty pricey. I've ended up paying $400 last year for a party package... But all worth it for my son. A nice place to keep your kids busy! read more

Two stars because my niece's reservation for a party was not well organized. The girl took way too long to set things up. From what I know, parties should be set up prior to guests and especially the celebrant, arriving! Food was alright, typical pizzas, wings, bread sticks - nothing too special. This location was extremely small compared to the other Chuck E Cheese's I've been to. It was a busy Saturday and there was a lot of crowding going on in each area. Game area wasn't too big and tickets wouldn't come out for some of the games. We had to call someone to retrieve our tickets. Thankfully, he gave us more than what we won! Shout out to him! You're the reason for the second star. Other than that, I would not come back to this location. It's way too small, kids get rowdy, and service is just not the best. Plus, there was a fight/argument that occurred in front of children. Cuss words being said left and right - such a bad example for the children there. Sorry, won't be coming back. read more

If you have read my Bjs review, Then you may come to think that I may hate crowds. And yes, yes I do. I also hate the types that are loud and leave horrible messes afterwards, with Screaming, whining children. Using these 2 facts, you can probably think how this establishment is. That is right. Hell. Here are my reasons: 1. This chuck E. Cheeses is the nearest one to me, and the smallest one by far. It is also kind of isolated, which makes it prone to crowds. 2. Upon walking into this place, you can plainly see that this place is, on quote from my godfather,"a third world cesspool". It is very poorly kept, with the awareness of fatal diseases everywhere. 3. They had removed 2/3 of the play structure because of children using it as a bathroom and getting lost, which removes the more fun. 4. The food is awful and at high prices, which is a bad combo. 5. Very awful children have been known to steal tickets. 6. The anthropomorphic robots are in disrepair. The FDA needs to tear this place down. Parents, this is not on your places to take my children list. Avoid this place with care read more

We are always holding our birthday parties here. The manager Masood was very nice. Kids enjoy coming here.
