Chuck-E-Cheese

Does Chuck-E-Cheese still exist in the States? When I go there next year I'm looking forward to eating at as many fast food places as I can as we don't have that many of them over here in Australia. What exactly do they sell at Chuck-E-Cheese? I know that in America Wendy's sells a lot more than icecream. Here they pretty much only do icecream, milkshakes and hotdogs. What other fast food joints do you guys have and what do they sell?

We had a Peter Piper's Pizza that used to be really good. They have the EA game stations and a huge area for kids and parties, but recently they changed ownership and not longer have the daily special buffet that we loved. The had really good locally grown produce in their salads and it was such a fun place to go, but now they don't do the buffet any more. We have Sonic Drive-in and Weinerschnitzel, lol, they both have really awful food. Our favorite fast food places are Subway and Quiznos and Long John Silvers/Taco Bell combo. We don't go to McDonalds often, but hubby and I both do actually like the taste of their food. We eat sensibly at home, paying close attention to nutrition, but when we eat out sometimes we just want to have fun!

Chuck E Cheese is a kids place where they can play and eat pizza. Now a days they have a salad bar and you can order different sandwhiches. It's way overpriced I think for the food. we take our two year old daughter sometimes. She likes to put her tokens into the machines. She can't do a whole lot but there are a few games she likes. Wendys' is a burger place, not an ice cream place. They don't sell hotdogs. We also have burger kings, Kentucky Fried Chicken, Taco Bell. Those are the major ones.

Wow, here in Australia Wendy's is first and foremost an icecream joint!

I have never been there, but I hear it still exists, because I hear about people going there all the time, in the States. Someone posted a video of a child's recent birthday party there, on Gather, so I know the place still exists in the USa, and people still go there often.

NOw that I realise it's a kid's restaurant I'm kind of over chuck-e-cheese. I looked at the website for Hardees and I have to try a chili cheeseburger. It looks heavenly.

chuck e cheese is a pizza place & they cater to young people. my grandson had his 3rd birthday party there & it was wild. they have alot of games for the kids to play, adults to & i bet there was a hundred wild kids running around having a blast. wendy's have wonderful hamburgers ,chicken sandwiches & salads, my favorite fast food place in our town but we are a small town. they don't even have hot dogs that i know of.the only ice cream they have is a small milk shape type drink but not as good as a milk shape. since you are going to memphis thete will be a bunch of places there. arby's is good if u like roast beef, taco belle is good if u like mexican food, i don'r care for mcdonalds or burger king. hope u find some good ones. if you like fried chicken they use to have popeye's in memphis , guess they still do, it's good. kfc is always good. i hope y'all have a big ol' time. are you going to see elvis house?

There are still some around. I rarely go. They serve pizza that I do not think is very good and they have an arcade/game area for the kids to play. Which states are you going to visit? There are different fast food joints in different states.

Chuck-E-Cheese is a pizza place that has a lot of games for kids. Wendy's is All kinds of stuff and if you go there do try their Chili (i love their chili) actually if i have to eat at a fast food resturant Wendy's is my pick. My husband likes Subway ( i don't). There is a fast food place on every conner so you will definatly have a wide choice.

Fast foods, my goodness, in NY there is every type you can imagine. Chuck E cheese has Pizza and stuff, but it is mainly for children and many have parties there. There are dozens of burger chains, Mexican chains, fish chains and so on. We have places that just sell ice cream type products, then donut franchises.

Hotdogs at Wendys? Well, I know they have really good hambergers. And baked potatoes. Chuck-E-cheese is a pizza place where you can take your kids and they can play and have pizza. I don't remember what else they have. I no longer go there. I haven't been there in years. YOur friend onlydia

Chuck-E-Cheese is a pizza place with an arcade for kids. I've never been myself, but I have seen the commercials all the time here in the USA. My nieces want me to take them all of the time. hehe I'm not sure if they sell other foods, though one commercial showed mothers eating salads.

Of course it does. I think.. I havn't been to Chuck-E-Cheese for around 8 years, but I'm sure they still exist. When I was little It was a great place that I used to hang out in. Play the games and win some tickets and get some prizes. Reminiscing is fun. In fact I want to go back now. In America we have Burger King, McDonalds, Checkers, Subway, Sabarro, KFC tons of other places. Subway is a place for sandwiches. Sabarro is for pizza. The rest of the places serve sadwitches and fries either chicken or burgers or both.

Oh how I love Chuck-E-Cheese! I used to love getting their and eating the best pizza while watching those mechanical bears do their music show. Then the games would keep be occupied. I haven't been there in forever. Maybe I should make a visit for my next birthday! Who cares that I'm an adult. As for more fast foods places that are good: Chik-Fil-A, Sonic (the drinks are the attractions), and Backyard Burgers. Perhaps you have them in Australia, I don't know. And some states don't have all these fast food places, but those are some of the good ones.

Chuck E Cheese does still exist. They have pizza and salads. It is a great big kids arcade with games and rides. My daughter loves having her birthday party there. In fact, we are supposed to have her party there next month. It is a fun place. They have some fun games for adults too. I like it almost as much as the kids do.

Yes, it does still exist here in the U.S. My husband and I were just discussing taking the kids to one near us a couple of weeks ago.

Absolutely! Or at least here in North Carolina we have them. There are state wide! My children love going to Chuck E Cheese. We go there all the time. Mostly on Friday and Saturday's we go around 5pm and let the kids play order a pizza some drinks and have a nice night out. My children are 3 & 4. I also have a ball when I am there its like being a kid again.
