This place is grate for kids! The down fall is the costumer service sucks!!!!! Food takes forever to come out. My husband was in like with my son waiting to get a price and people kept on cutting yeah I understand there kids but those kids had parents & most importantly the employee (JULIA) kept on looking at my husband but didn't even bother to say to the people that were cutting "ok hold on he's next" she just stood there and just pretended like he or my son weren't there. Oh and did I mention she kept on leaving and saying "ok hold on I'll be back" she would leave and then help someone else. Come on if only I could explain to my 2 year old that Chucky cheese doesn't have enough employees to help everyone else. Oh & did I mention she looked like she didn't even want to be there. Honey if you don't like working around kids or people your at the wrong place! read more

Terrible service!! The employees gave us the wrong black buzzer thing to get our food and when we went to ask about our food the first time (30min after order) they said "it'll be right up it hasn't buzzed yet" never came. An hour later I got up and answer, turns out THEY GAVE US THE WRONG BUZZER!!!!! They did not want to compliment anything, all they offered were to upgrade our wings! We spend 85$!!!!!! On four people!! Someone needs to do something about this! Unacceptable!! read more

I honestly don't understand why this place has bad reviews. I took my 2 year old son here and we loved it! Spent 30$ for a large pizza 4 sodas (the sodas come only in child size) but that's totally fine with refills l, and 30 tokens. The place did have a funky smell to it, but what do you expect for a place with a ton of kids running around? The # 1 thing I LOVED a the most is that they have the front door blocked off with a gate to keep track of who comes and goes. So for that 2 second moment you take to tie your shoe and your child decides to go run off to look at a game you don't have to have a mini heart attack that the child will run outside. I totally loved this place 1 token for each game. It was a blast! Pizza was also very delish!! read more

Chuck E. Cheese - The band - Pizza Near Me - Ventura, California

See all

Waited almost 40 mins. For our pizza which they weren't packed at all! They didn't even have cheese at the tables and when asked for some they told us to look around the other tables?! Really! When our pizza finally got to our table they didn't even bring us plates! When I asked for some the employee brought us three when there were eight of us. Our table ran out of napkins so my niece got the other one from the table next to ours and it was almost out as well. Will definitely spend my hard earned money elsewhere instead of this over priced tacky establishment! Let me not even discuss the bathroom stench! I only rated this one star because I had to ! Otherwise they'd be minus stars! Chuck E. Cheese should've ashamed of themselves for robbing us blind ! No worries will not come here again! read more

Chuck E. Cheese - Pizza Near Me - Ventura, California

Considering that this place caters to children, it meets my expectations. The place is clean enough, the food is adequate, and the kids have a blast. Yes, it's overpriced and the service you receive is hit or miss; there are some really awesome people who work there, and others that don't seem to care or are just too overwhelmed to care, but again, the kids enjoy it and have a good day. At the end my children are the reason I even go there, so it works. Thanks to all the CEC employees who do a great job of keeping this place running so the children have somewhere fun to go in this area. read more

My kids had fun here I recommend this place for a week day oh also they spit the coins they now give e you a card to reload I hate that part I swear lol I. Think they need to go back to coins lol it was better so you can go e one token out of time to your kids instead of a card read more

First time at this location for a birthday party. The servers and cashiers are slow. Trash all on the floor and it's pretty ghetto. My friend and I went to the restroom and it was disgusting. The toilets were dirty, floors were wet and dirty. I can say that the restroom had toilet paper and paper towels. read more

I hadn't had Chuck E. Cheese pizza in over 10 years, but my boyfriend remembers he used to love it, so he decided to grab one for us. I was surprised at how good the pizza actually was, because I certainly didn't expect much. I would eat pizza from there again. read more

Went to the Ventura Chuck E Cheese's with my 3 three grandkids today. I was aprehensive because of the reviews here. But, the specialty pizzas were delicious, all of the staff was kind and helpful, and they were constantly cleaning things up. Even the guests were polite to each other. All in all it was a fun afternoon we will all remember for a long time! read more

So unorganized, I didn't even host the party my sister did. Took over an hr to get the pizza, tokens, etc. People were getting inpatient because the tickets were even ready. When we asked the "waiter" she said we have a party's cake then yours, what they don't know how to host multiple parties? I told her never again. Don't recommend this at all. read more

Horrible customer service. Yes I understand its crowded and they're understaffed but c'mon. This place aint cheap. Bad enough u have to wait half an hour just go get to order another forty minutes to get ur order. Then had to ask multiple times to clean our table. To top it off when the order came it wasnt even complete had to go up and inform them part of the order was missing. Salad bar disgusting. I haven't been here in a while and today was a huge disappointment. read more

First off the parking is always a mission to find since it's always busy on weekend so if you don't wanna bother with that park by Winco or in the back. Second there was already a line out the door and everyone was cramp on the kid-check area. We waited for about 10/15 min and the line wasn't moving, I get you need to verified some stuff but kindly put the person to the other side while letting other people that was waiting in line and come back to that guests so you don't have a line piled up, and holding up businesses. Third there was dirty tables unattended and wasn't clean after the guests had left this is right after walking in the floors was also dirty along the way. We missed the first part of the birthday and everything they did for the birthday was VERY fast pace like they're trying to get it done so they could do a party right after I get you paid for 2 hours of party time but the party was already off to the party parents who was hosting the party, they arrived about 30 minutes early vs the normal 15 minutes they didn't meet with the party host and didn't know who it was until after the party started for 15 minutes and they were looking for who it was the whole time. I mean I've never seen an event this disorganized ever. When it came time to pay the host who took over one of the other host couldn't find the correct bill. The host Edna was kind enough to apologize for the inconvenience and fixed the bill mistake and when she came back the party mom told her about the situation she had and Edna was on top of it she handled it professionally and calmly she was understanding and apologetic about the whole situation and took care of whatever she could to make up for the bad experience the party parents had. I gave that situation a two stars. What also disappointed me as a customer and someone who has been in the field of line of work was that the floors was dirty, the food has been sitting in the window ready to be delivered longer than it should (3 managers, 4 employees kept walking past that window and ignored the fact that there was food there or the fact this 1 guy who delivered one set of food and then walked away) the service was a bit slow but I kinda get it was kinda busy. There's one kid that irked me the most we've been waiting for our to go order and it was taking awhile (ok I can wait a bit) but when I see the food I ordered came out on the window to be ready to delivered I see a employee walking toward the window to put the number back so I go up and ask if I could take my food since it's ready abc right there and he's goes "I'm not there yet you'd have to wait I'm only on number 62" um really? And he then disappeared for 20 mins during that time no one delivered any of the food that was still sitting there from the last time I ask the employee, by that time again 3 managers had walked by and 2 employees has also walked by and ignored it... um really?! Then this employee came from the back with a cleaning bucket to clean tables he picked up the cup from the table in front of the food window put the bucket back in the back and went to delivered food, gave me my ordered but they had forgotten the two cotton candy I ordered so I'm waiting some more while he tried to find out so he came back and said they're making it the cashier then goes back and it took her about 10/15 minutes to make but only came back out with one bag and then we advised her there was two order and she went and disappeared for another 10/15 min and then came back unhappy and handed it to me... I don't know if I'd come back to this location on a weekend and I'm not sure if I care to spend money here either. We'll see. Depending on my mood. read more

This place ass. They microwave pizza if they get backed up and always understaffed. Trash place. Dave and Busters's all da wey.

This location has terrible customer service, sometimes the machines don't work and tokens get stuck, and there are no workers around to help. read more

I was going to be nice and give it a third star but I'm disgruntled !! Anyone else born before 1990 BUMMED OUT that they've changed everything? The back room has been demolished and its just this one big open room, the ball pit is GONE the awesome tunnels are GONE.. the PIZZA isn't the same anymore but seems more conveyor belt made now.. SIGH. My PARENTS used to come here for just the pizza itself when all of us were still in school, but they don't bother anymore. The best part is the Salad bar and that's about it, but you can get a great salad bar anywhere. Pfft.. I hate how commercialization has changed places. Chuck E Cheese's used to be the place to go when you live in Ventura and Oxnard for birthday parties & it actually wasn't bad. Gah. read more

I give a star because all of the kids had fun. But the place was trashed! There were plates, cups and food all over the floor ... everywhere. I dont mean one here & one there. I mean like whole tables that had not been cleaned off and were overflowing on to the floor. Also tissue that had been tracked out of the bathroom, because the bathrooms looked like they hadn't been cleaned all day. The sinks were clogged with towels & the trash was over flowing, the big one and the little ones inside the stalls.I never expected good pizza from chucky cheese but I did expect a little cleaning up. The empty pizza trays & plates/cups sat on the tables for most of the party. We were there a little over 3 hours and I did not see one employee cleaning anything. As for the customers, you cant pick & choose who you let in but kids there were trying to take off chuckys clothes as he was singing & dancing with the kids. Like they knew he wasn't real & wanted to expose him. And where were these kids parents? Who knows. read more

I am NOT a fan of CEC. Tonight sealed the casket. I came to enjoy my daughters birthday. The place was grossly understaffed. It was filthy way more then usual, pizza ground into the carpets, salad bar empty, soda machine drenched. I get things happen, I really do but this was awful. I would say over that over 1/3 of the games were out of order today. The ticket machines were all broken but three. Couldn't find game attendants anywhere. I hate that I am so mad over something so trivial. Tonight was just special and it was ruined by everything broken. No fun. read more

My expectations for this establishment were low to begin with on my most recent visit on Saturday, October 10, but my experience didn't even meet those. Please consider the following: * Cleanliness: This location was absolutely filthy...with garbage all over the floors; tables that had not been properly cleaned and disinfected; and games that had not been thoroughly wiped down. Just plain gross. I practically bathed in Purell when I got home. * Food: So awful, I wouldn't even feed it to my dog. My pepperoni pizza was beyond greasy, and it had about as much flavor as a piece of cardboard. The pizza was so atrocious it made me sick to my stomach later in the evening. To be fair, the salad bar looked decent, but I didn't purchase salad. * Noise: I realize Chuck E. Cheese is for kids, but I was not prepared for the never-ending cacophony of noise that assaults the senses when you're here. It is incessant...and interminable. And forget about parents even remotely trying to control their children. They arrive, and then let their snot-nosed kids run out of control all over the place. If I had to come here on a regular basis, I would bring ear plugs. Video Games: There aren't enough for older children or adults...like it used to have back in the day. This place needs more video games, pure and simple. Parents, this place is great for your kids for a little while, but definitely keep your expectations in check. At least the soda station was accessible and had plenty of ice. read more

Would have just left one star if it was for the over all service I received it would have only been one star. This place is extremely understaffed and the worst customer service from the moment I walked in the door. I saw many families just walk in with their children WITHOUT getting stamped which is what first caught my eye. I have always brought my children here for years without the worry of them taking off out the door or without someone grabbing them. Now I saw families leave without getting their hands stamped which is so dangerous not only for the children but for this company! I preceded to get in line to order just drinks since the pizza was already paid for at the party I was attending. I was in line for over 15 minutes with only one person in front of me (never made it to order the drinks because it was just a ridiculous amount of time waiting) but during the time waiting in line the employee was trying to take their order then walked away to greet the people in the front then came back to continue with the order walked away again to the prize section to help another customer get their prizes. Came back they paid and she walked away again (when I was just about to ask for 3 cups for soft drinks) to answer the phone to take something to one of the parties. She came back and walked away from me AGAIN. at that point I just had it I walked away. Like 15 minutes later I went to go order wings had to wait again but not as long. I ordered a small order of wings FOR $14. Waited 45 minutes for my buzzer to NOT EVEN GO OFF. Walked up to the heat lamp where the food comes up my wings were sitting there cold and nasty from being under the heat lamp. Then finally took the kids to get their prizes and one lady is helping me takes off and asks the other employee to help we already knew what we wanted she tells me to hold on and helps the people behind me get all their prizes. I just wish I didn't spend a penny at this place it wasn't worth ONE SINGLE PENNY. I was waiting to be helped for the majority of the time I was there for a BIRTHDAY PARTY. back when I used to have the kids birthdays here they accommodated you very well. Whoever is in charge I sure hope you put your foot down with your employees because something very bad is bound to happen any time now. I will be happy to go back when i see some changes in this specific establishment until then I will be speaking about this matter on all social media platforms. Be careful come with your own food and drinks if you don't like to wait 45 minutes to an hour for something small!!! read more

Brought the kids and they had fun. Josh the at the entrance was rude and not welcoming at all. Rudy the pizza guy rocks!

It's Chuck E Cheese. So for me, the only place worse is Hell. But the place is good sized and fairly clean. I mean as clean as it can be when there's a bazillion kids running around the place spreading their pint sized germs. If you come for lunch Monday through Friday, you can do the all you can eat buffet for $5.99/adult, $3.99/kids under 10. So you're not paying the regular $17-20 for a pizza that's worse than frozen generic pizza. They have overpriced poor quality beer and wine. But hey, it's better than nothing. So two stars for allowing the parents to sit here and get tipsy while their kids go whack-a-mole. $30 for three of us including the $5 worth of game tokens (before beer and wine). One hour of watching screaming kids play mindlessly on video games and kdddie rides. My nine year old was busting my butt for me never bringing him to this place. He thought it'd be great. He's really too old now to enjoy it so I said yes to coming. (yes. I'm THAT kinda mom). But now he's been here and we'll never have to come back. Because honestly, his Xbox and my homemade pizza is just hella better. read more

Chuck E. Cheese - The Big Man - Pizza Near Me - Ventura, California

My son had his 5th birthday here. The staff was super helpful, it wasn't too expensive and the pizza was good. Only complaint was how crowded it was but that's to be expected. read more

Little man loves it. That's all that matters... It's always loud, it's always crowded, and it's always busy. I see some people have put posted about detractors but the flames of love this this is about the kids having fun not an adult issue or adult problems. read more

Hey it's your typical Chuck E Cheese, if you don't like screaming kids, don't come here! They still use tokens, everything is not on card. Pizza is pretty terrible but luckily there are some other options like... beer. Hey don't complain about choice or prices, be glad they even offer alcohol here. The best part of this place as an adult is probably the salad bar and perhaps the air hockey table. read more

Went yesterday.. Pizza is gross, breadstick are dry and nasty! Games don't give tickets!! One ticket machine broke! Carpet leaves socks and feet BLACK!!! Pretty dirty.. We go once a year only!! Price a bit high even with a coupon! read more

It's very full all the time but that's to be expected. Great for kids parties or any day fun. I really enjoy the pizza and the salad bar is a steal. 25 cents for all games. Ben coming to chuck all my life 4 thumbs up! read more

My niece had her 4th Birthday party here and it was crap. I host parties myself and our party host was the definition of party pooper. No enthusiasm, monotone, boring, and did not get the party pumped up. Food came late, so we only had like 5 minutes to eat before they brought out the cake to sing and cut! P.S. it was an ice cream cake, so we had to eat it before it started to melt. The host didn't even bring a knife to cut the cake, so he was struggling to cut with a plastic knife. It was so pathetic it got to the point that I got up and started helping him pass out the cake,ice cream, and forks to everyone. When we were out of food and went to order more they only had ONE girl ringing at the register. The line was backing up past the rope entrance. A lot of games were down as well. To top it off while waiting for the second round of food we were told we had to move our seats to another table because they had to prep for the next party. Mind you we were a group of 30. So finding a few tables near each other to hold us was nearly impossible. They definitely over packed parties that day or something. I like the new wristband token scanner thing better than kids holding a bunch of coins. Besides the food being late, everything else was rushed. In the end party host sucked (I wish I wrote down his name), food was late and basic in quality, not enough staff during peak hours, games were fun, and I like the new way to play unlimited games for a set amount of time. read more

My kids and I came here on s Friday at 2 pm and it was great. Luis gave us great customer service. And Maria in the kitchen made an amazing pizza. Everyone was so helpful . read more

I have never seen staff work so hard to make so many ungrateful "entitled" parents happy. Claudia, General manager, truly cares about every guest leaves happy. It's a shame that corporate doesnt see that cutting labor is not the answer. If the staff actually felt appreciated by the corporation, this company would take off. The cooks are amazing. They work magic being the scenes that no body sees. Chuck e is a brave soul, kids can be cruel and rowdy. Parents mentally check out and assume the staff baby sit their children while they sit on their tablets at the tables. Next time you go to Chuck e cheese, say thank you before complaining about petty things. You have no idea what it's like to work there. The 5 review is dedicated to the hard working staff who simply want every guest to leave happy. read more

I wonder if went to the same chuck e as all the other 1 star reviews, it wasn't bad at all! pizza was good and overall good experience It was a little long for the pizza wait but the kids were busy playing and running amock as most kids should! It is a little loud but maybe the purpose behind that is to drown out the annoying helicopter parents. I went early and there were plenty of employees and friendly too. I even saw some wiping tables down unlike other reviews. My kids had a great time playing games and meeting Chuck e. I mean really people what do you expect fancy linens and waiters at your table? I think the only issue I had was the bathroom but I only used once. A lot of used paper towels left behind on sink-throw away your trash people! read more

The only time I've ever gone to The Cheese is when there's a birthday party. Pizza always reminds me my lowest standard.

Food is overpriced and terrible (our party ordered chicken wings, salad and pizza). Place is dirty, trashcans were overfilled and there was trash on floor, not to mention a disgusting and smelly bathroom. Only Pro: Kids seem to have fun, but can't adults take them somewhere clean and reasonably priced? Some of the adults seem apathetic to their children's whereabouts, which was measured by the amount of adults on their phones or talking to other adults, while their children roamed free. Surprisingly crowded, but mostly due to little ones running a muck. Not a place to go for good food or entertainment. Most games seem to be out of order or subpar, giving a miniscule amount of tickets for the effort and price. Overall rip-off of a place. Will not bring my children to this place, only here due to a birthday celebration I was invited to. read more

We just had my nieces birthday party at Chuck E. Cheese, the staff was very good to all the kids. But best of all the B-day girl. She's telling us. "I want to have my birthday party here every year." read more

I preferred the pizza from before , it's something about this new recepy that doesn't taste good and prices have gone Higher. Service is good read more

Kids love this place for the fun games and prizes but the service is not very good, especially the food service. I went in a few days ago and ordered an individual pizza with Canadian bacon and olives, that's it, very simple order. 35 minutes later it shows up as a pepperoni and olive pizza. I informed an associate and the response was that he could have them redo it. I didn't have time to wait another half hour for a small little pizza so I just took the pepperoni off for my kid who doesn't like pepperoni but was still dissapointed that there was no Canadian bacon on it, his favorite. I was offered a couple of tokens but that doesn't help my kid eat the unwanted pizza. read more

Chuck E. Cheese - Pizza Near Me - Ventura, California

I came to try the new buffet they had but was refused a plate to get more food because it was already closed. I stood in line for a few minutes and still had a few minutes left after I asked for a plate but the cashier refused me a plate. Worst experience ever. I know it was almost closing but they still had food out and they even offered us the buffet when we came in. Bad customer service. read more

My cousin had her son's 4th birthday party and it was a good place for a family party!

This location is a cautionary example of how to drive the image of a franchise down the toilet. I've waited two years to post a review after notifying "management" four times that they've had (& still have) games there that have been broken and/or out of order for literally MONTHS. At one point, there were more broken games at this location than working ones! Unacceptable. And still, they continue to run a feckless, apathetic, highly neglected floor. Shame. This location stinks. And their strident GREED & chicanery in beating you & your kids out of 4 tokens for a dollar, only now to give you THREE tokens (& a kick in the crotch w a rat foot) to play their broken games? Disgraceful. read more

The sandwich I ordered was decent and my beer was ok but I think they need to fumigate the building. My daughter got a bug bite on her face and I felt my skin itching all over after we left. Threw my clothes in the washer and jumped in the shower! Will not be going back. read more
