Chuck. E Cheese Store Tour (Bellevue, WA)

This is a store tour of Chuck E. Cheese pizza in Bellevue, WA. This is another location with a rare 1 stage with all the animatronics of Chuck E. Cheese and munchs make believe band. I know there are a few more stores similar to showbiz pizza place that had a 3 stage with rockafire explosion characters but this is still a cool store with a rare stage with no Chuck E. Cheese “wink” at the top. If anyone has been to this store let me know what I am missing and comment anything else about Chuck E. Cheese you know about this store.

Did you know? In the Seattle area, there were a total of four pre-merger ShowBiz Pizza Places, but none of those lasted beyond the 1980s. These were located in Bellevue, Federal Way, Lynnwood and Bremerton. The first three of these opened in 1982, followed by Bremerton in '83. The Federal Way store closed in 1983, the same year the video game crash had hit, while the other three survived the merging with Chuck E. Cheese's. The Bellevue and Bremerton stores closed in 1987, while the Lynnwood store was relocated to 3717 196th St. the year before and was thus the only ShowBiz Pizza store to have opened in the Seattle area post-merger and thus also the only one to have transitioned into Chuck E. Cheese's in 1993. It finally closed its doors this July 23.

Bellevue's 1-Stage actually came from the Milwaukee, Wisconsin (Good Hope Rd) Showbiz that closed in 1995. They originally had a Rock-Afire Explosion and then replaced it with a Rocker Stage, then a 1-Stage, then they closed and sent it to Bellevue, which opened in Spring 1996. Oh, and Bellevue isnt technically a standard 1-Stage, as they have a turntable (the platform Chuck E. is standing on). It used to be able to turn around, so the kids would not be confused / scared of there being two Chuck E.'s (walkaround and animatronic). Currently, 4 other CEC locations have 1-Stages with a turntable, those are Milwaukee, Wisconsin (Chase Ave), Dublin, California, Middletown, New Jersey, and Pearl City, Hawaii (which is turned around to the back, meaning the Chuck E. bot is not visisible, but he isnt even in the store anymore.)

Will be visiting this place soon cause I live one hour away from this lol, and I still can't believe there used to be Showbiz pizza in my hometown Bremerton OMG

[@romarisrogers8005]

Wish this phase of CEC kept the 3rd phase wall art that had elvis, MJ, the Beatles, etc...on it

[@ticketmaster1000]

Yeah. Unfortunately it’s getting harder to find.

This stage is higher than me on a Thursday

[@Kaden.000]

Does this Chuck E. Cheese still have the one stage or has it been remodeled already since this video was filmed??

[@ShowbizWashington93]

They still have their 1 stage and 2.0 is unknown.

[@CoffeeofSorts]

Thanks for the video! I may visit this location, and was wondering if you know if they still have the animatronics here or not? The animatronics are what set these types of pizzerias apart from others, and I would like to see them if they're still there.

[@karoummaa]

they should still be there, I know you can also call the location and ask if they still have it. I know that soon they might be removing them and replacing it with an interactive floor. So go while you can!

[@ticketmaster1000]

I’m not sure since I was on vacation when I filmed this
