Can you believe my first-ever trip to Chuck E Cheese just happened last week? I KNOW! I didn't know what I was missing.

Well, the folks working there were cool enough to let my boyfriend and that I have a peek around and it looked soooooo fun we decided to slip a fiver into the token machine. We played skee-ball, Simpsons pinball, basketball, a really cool game which was like House of the Dead just with firefighters, and various other games that ran us a single token each. Five bucks lasted us the better part of an hour or so and on the way in which out we handed our ticket receipt over to a mom so her kids could get a better prize.

I really like the fact that they serve pizza AND have a salad bar, healthy option is always beneficial. And all sorts of the children there looked like these were having a blast (although it was probably way past their bedtime). Two thumbs up, without a doubt.

And P.S. Never go to there without any Chuck-E-Cheese coupon. You will get your hands on one of the billion coupons they give out or they've online. It'll help you save a great deal.
