Chuck E. Cheese
Chuck E. Cheese is a chain of American family entertainment centers and restaurants. The brand is owned by CEC Entertainment, Inc., a subsidiary of Apollo Global Management. The establishment serves pizza and other menu items, complemented by arcade games, amusement rides, and animatronic displays as a focus of family entertainment. The brand derives its name from its main animatronic character Chuck E. Cheese, a comedic mouse who sings and interacts with guests.
History[edit | edit source]
The first location of Chuck E. Cheese was opened in San Jose, California on May 17, 1977, by Nolan Bushnell, who is also the founder of Atari, Inc.. The concept for Chuck E. Cheese was created from Bushnell's belief that there were not enough places where young people could learn about technology and its benefits. The restaurant and entertainment center was designed to provide a fun, safe, and friendly environment where children and their families could enjoy pizza, games, and animated entertainment.
Concept and format[edit | edit source]
Chuck E. Cheese locations feature a sit-down pizza restaurant, complemented by arcade games, small rides, and animatronic stage shows. The main character, Chuck E. Cheese, is a grey anthropomorphic mouse with a red derby hat, a red turtleneck with a yellow "C" on it, purple slacks, and red shoes. The character is voiced by Duncan Brannan and Jeremy Blaido.
Menu[edit | edit source]
The menu at Chuck E. Cheese includes pizza, sandwiches, appetizers, a salad bar, desserts, and beverages. The pizza is available in several varieties and sizes, with a choice of toppings. The restaurants also offer gluten-free options and a thin & crispy pizza crust.
Entertainment[edit | edit source]
The entertainment at Chuck E. Cheese centers around its animatronic characters, led by Chuck E. Cheese himself. The characters perform shows that are intended to entertain and educate children. In addition to the animatronics, the locations also feature arcade games and amusement rides.
