Chuck E. Cheese locations across the country are getting a fresh look. The Grand Chute restaurant and arcade near the Fox River Mall has gotten its facelift and we went to check out what is new! A lot has stayed the same, but everything feels fresh and bright. Though the layout is about the same, all of the seating and tables are new. Some of the things that we loved are still in place like skee-ball and visits from Chuck E.
What’s new?
- No More Tokens
Tokens have been replaced by play cards. Play cards can be loaded with credits or minutes for “All You Can Play”. - No More Play Structure
The playing structure in the center of the building has been removed. - Dance Floor
There’s an interactive dance floor and characters come out to interact with kids there hourly. - More big games including a Lugi’s Mansion Game that kids (or you!) completely enter to play.
What’s the same?
- There’s still ride on rides!
- There’s still skee-ball!
- You can still earn tickets!
- There’s still pizza and a salad bar.
How does All You Can Play work?
When you arrive, you buy a card to play games. You can choose to load credits or minutes for All You Can Play. During the time you choose to load, there’s no limit to the number of games you can play. We loaded our kids with an hour and the number of games they played and tickets they amassed was pretty impressive. The time is able to be paused for bathroom breaks, eating pizza, or dancing with Chuck E Cheese. There are kiosks near the front for pausing and reloading cards and a small machine that pauses only in the back.
