Chuck E. Cheese’s

Kept my 2 year entertained for hours. Staff was always there to make sure the games were working and had tickets. Love that theirs hand sanitizers all around

It’s been awhile since I had a reason to go to Chuck E. Cheese regularly, but enjoy that Silverdale offers this form of entertainment to children. It’s a pleasant place to spend a few hours for what could be a small amount of money. This location might be smaller than some I have been to in the past, but still seems to have plenty of things to do. I enjoy that it’s free to enter and you only pay for what you spend inside. It also has a spacious parking lot.
I also really like that they have the entrance/​exit staffed and that they give you matching black light stamps with the child you come in with as an added form of security. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the token machine took credit cards and that all machines only cost a quarter. Almost everything was in working order and a technician was walking around and double checking everything while I was there. I was happy to find a variety of machines that gave you printed pictures as a souvenir of your visit. There were also things that appealed to both toddlers and older children. I would have preferred some pinball myself. The ticket counting machine was also nice and kept me from having to do math. Although as can be expected the prizes are not that great and require a ton of tickets. Chuck E. came out a few times while I was there and did a little dance and then made it rain additional tickets for those in attendance.
The buffet was reasonably priced at 5.99 $. It had a small salad bar and some unusual pizza like ones with macaroni and cheese or spaghetti and meatballs. Definitely not a gourmet meal but may appeal to children and those on a budget.

I went to this restaurant for a birthday party, which was scheduled in advance. The pizza arrived an hour and a half after we ordered it! And the wait staff and manager when asked blamed everything on the cooks! Isn’t the manager supposed to ensure that the food goes out on a timely basis? Worst experience ever. Will never book a party or eat here again.

I have been in a lot of family type restaurants in my lifetime but this chuck e cheese was the worst experience! The staff was rude, condescending and impolite, especially the manager. He knows nothing about customer service and should not be working in an establishment like this. Will never return to this restaurant again! Stay away!

I don’t know when the last time was that I visited a Chuck E Cheese…20 years perhaps… but my daughter held a birthday party here for Addy her daughter, our granddaughter. All of her friends showed up!!!
The most positive aspect that I truly appreciated was the security measures that regulate entry and exit from the establishment… no missing kids!!!
The party was held in its own table section, all prepared with balloons, party bags, pizza and drinks for the kids. Our server, James… was awesome. He took charge and engaged all the kids, keeping them all active, happy and having a real fun time. The ride and game area takes tokens… we had a huge supply of them so every sat kid was able to play and ride everything… and Chuck E himself visited and played with the kids.
For the adults, there was pizza and drinks, and a salad bar. I enjoyed myself and my plate never was empty… LOL.
I don’t recall any of the partys or other family events we had at any chuck E Cheese when my kids were smaller, ever having such a fun time. I’m certain my daughter paid through the nose for this party, but as best I can tell, it was a success.
Why four stars then… well, lets give the place another visit and see how it measures up before granting that coveted 5-​stars!!!

Never go here. The food is horrible and WAY overpriced ($ 7 for one salad, $ 13 for a one topping large pizza) and the noise level is extremely high. There is NO value for the money. You are better off taking little kids to McDonalds play land. We went on a Wednesday evening.
Noise level wasn’t bad due to kids — it was the music over the loudspeakers. Just horrible.

For fellow parents you know the fear that follows «Mommy can we go to Chuck E Cheese’s?». You wonder will it be clean, how about unsupervised children running around, is the food even edible?! But believe it or not Silverdale Chuck E Cheese’s is doing it right.
I am one of those parents who refuse to go to CEC on a weekend. I can’t stand the noise or crowds. So we go when they open on a Monday/​Tuesday to avoid both. It is very clean and the staff is super friendly. While it is smaller than some of the other CECs, all the games/​rides worked while we visited.
The food– Try to get a combo with your tokens, you save money and it is pretty well worth it. The pizza wasn’t great, but my kids ate it. I wasn’t sure what tasted off about it, but it just was gross to me. I will stick to the salad bar which was plentiful and fresh!
The games– They all worked and if anything did happen to eat a coin, the staff was quick to replace the coin and look at the machine. They don’t have a ton of machines though and if you are a fan of winning lots of tickets, it won’t happen here. Some of the other stores have more ticket winning machines and these ones you were lucky to get 7 – 10 tickets even with high scores. You are better of buying the toys at the trade in than trying to win them with tickets. But if you are like me you don’t go to buy a toy, you go for the kids and their fun.
Safety-​Back in the old days CEC was kind of shady. It wasn’t somewhere as a parent I would feel safe to bring my kids. Today though safety is of huge concern and they do a lot to make parents and children feel safe. As you go in your children and you are stamped with a number code in blacklight glow ink. You can’t see it until it is under a blacklight which they check on the way out to make sure you aren’t leaving with anyone you shouldn’t. This is GREAT. They also have an abundance of cameras which also makes you feel a bit more secure. But NOTHING can replace an alert parent, so please remember to at least check on your kids now and then. I will be the first to admit, I bring a book and get comfortable. But I also only give out two-​five tokens at a time insuring my kids have to come back every few minutes so I can make sure they are following rules like not running, being friendly, taking turns and not yelling or being loud.
I will go here again and again, as often as my sanity will permit that is. We brought along grandma who was amazed at how different they are. Anyone who walked in the old CEC on Tacoma Mall Blvd, this is NOTHING like those old days.

Has anyone been here lately? This is not the CEC I remember. Dang– their pizza was actually really good and as soon as we stepped in the door with my daughter and her 5 friends– all was taken care of. They had the best 3 hrs and I had to do nothing! I got to visit with the moms and they called the kids over for every part of the party– and what was included in the basic package was plenty– those kids had tons of pizza and coins and Chuck E made sure mom had a chance to take pics of the bday girl blowing out her cake and a big hug from him etc etc. I have had so may parties– at my house, at the museum, at the bounce place– all for well over 200 dollars– this was under $ 100 and got a cake from costco for $ 18 was an awesome experience… man, these employees were so helpful… I do not think any establishment around here has such great customer service. sounds weird, I know– but we had the best time– they took such good care of us

This is the smallest Chuck E Cheese EVER!
Don’t get me wrong, I will still bring my daughter here because she loves it and it does it’s job on rainy days, but there are bigger better ones out there. The place is never full and you can always find a table.
The fact that it is small can be a good thing if you want to watch your child the entire time. It is also a good place to start taking kids that are Mommy or Daddy dependent. It is small enough that the won’t feel overwhelmed and they would be able to find Mom and Dad pretty quickly. For me, I have a 4 year old social butterfly who doesn’t care to have us at her side all the time so we find it easier to sit at our table and let her do her own thing… she comes to us when she needs more tokens ;-)
We had a party there this year and I was very under whelmed by the lack of enthusiasm out «party host» had during the time with Chuck E. I will not pay for a party there again, there is more energy and fun without having to go through the whole Chuck E party event.
In addition, I like that the serve more than just pizza. Salads, sandwiches, hot dogs, and fruit.

I do enjoy this Chuck E CHeese, it is small but like for many adults more an easier aspect to watch the kids. For me I am more familiar with bigger ones so it was different for me when it first started. It is a great places, but if you are having a party in the weekend it does get crazy. So it might be fun to come in the week day.

It is Chuck E Cheese. Everything takes a token, half the things give a ticket or tickets, and the prizes are super cool… if you’re a kid.
If you have kids and you want to do theme park lite, it’s all they need, games, bright colors, ‘good’ pizza, prizes, and a mouse to have their picture taken with.
The crowd varies depending on how many local birthdays there are. The kids seem to love the crowd.
The best part is the kid check. The employees always seem to really check to make sure the right kid leaves with the right adult.

So I’ve now been to a few different Chuck E Cheese locations. This one is somewhat smaller than the others, but as the supervising adult that’s kind of nice. I can keep an eye on the kiddo easier. The pizza here was greasy, but somewhat less «bleh» than the other locations. Maybe the grease is the key to the flavor? Though there are fewer games and such than other locations, more games seemed to be in working order here.
Upon serving our pizza, our service rep or something along those lines, introduced himself and told me to let him know if anything wasn’t working. When one game at a token he quickly got us some extras and started working on fixing it. He even found us to let us know when it was done.
I was impressed with the service at this location and it wasn’t nearly as crowded as some of the places in Seattle.

If you’ve been to a CEC before you know what you’re in for. Bland air-​baked pizza and token-​fed games. The location is a small one and the games haven’t changed since it opened about 2 years ago so it becomes boring quickly for accompanying adults (parents).
