Chuck E. Cheese Fairfield, CA Store Tour (Grand Reopening/2.0)
Today we have a store tour of the recently reopened Fairfield, CA store! Originally this store opened in 1983 as a franchised Chuck E. Cheese’s Pizza Time Theatre with a Balcony stage. Around the late 80’s they received a C-Stage, and in the 90’s they got a 2-Stage. From what I’ve heard, the stage used to be on the right side of the restaurant in the area where most of the little kid games are and it goes back a little bit. In 1997 they moved the stage to the left side of the building, to the right of the kitchen, and the SkyTubes were put in the former showroom area (those were removed from this location in the early 2010’s). The stage was in disrepair for years and Fairfield was notorious for having one of the worst-conditioned Cyberamic stages in the company.
Back in winter 2020, rumors started circulating that Fairfield was going to close assumingely due to leasing or franchising issues. Unfortunately, they closed for good on 1/5/21, leaving only 2 other franchised locations in California, being Redding and San Jose. They shortly thereafter opened as “GameX Pizza & Arcade” which was a family entertainment center that was practically the same thing that it already was, just without the Chuck E. Cheese branding or animatronics. They reused all the same games, took down all Chuck E. Cheese artwork, and replaced the animatronics for a projector screen. GameX didn’t last long though as you could tell.
On 7/21/22, Chuck E. Cheese finally made his official reappearance in Fairfield and they had their grand opening (they had a soft-reopening on 7/12/22 prior). The store is now a company-owned 2.0 store with a dance floor and a large screen that plays the show. They have mostly new games, with a few old ones from before, and pretty much the same layout. Unfortunately there were a few issues since it was their first weekend officially open such as games not working properly and slow food service, but I’m sure with time they’ll be on top of everything. I actually ran into my old manager from Sacramento at the Fairfield store who was helping out with the stores grand reopening, and I had a chat with her about everything, so that was cool. Anyways, its great to have Fairfield back and if you’re ever in the area, you should stop on by.

It’s good to see Fairfield back in business!
6:17 the wall the stage was on from March of '97 to January of '21 the room used to be a TV room and the show room was in what is now part of the game room.
I know both of these locations opened as PTTs but both West Allis & Fairfield’s Interior even in 2.0 looks so familiar to each other in my opinion. But it’s great to have Fairfield back open!
Before it was remodeled it was changed to a game-x or something and i went it was just cec but without cec some of the old cec games were still there even the photo booth which is weird
I worked here fairfield ca. Chucky cheese when i was in high school in 1998 1999

Do y’all have any photos or videos of this location in the 90s and 2000s?

I like the fact that later stores to became a 2.0 have a giant screen and don’t rely too much on ceiling tv. That way it still feels like a showroom.
Looks like the Cutie Car and the beloved 90s Barney with his train there. Both can also be found at the Tyler, Texas location.
I finally got to go here recently! It’s great!
the closure of the franchise incarnation was mainly Covid related. the Franchisee actually owned the building (he bought it about 10 years ago, but closed it when Covid hit to keep San Jose going. (for those who don't know, the company is no longer offering any domestic (North America) franchises, and is actively buying up the few that still exist.) you'd have to live in Canada if you wanted to own a franchise in North America.
I’ve been to there before it was renovated
Great news!! Guys
One of my locals finally back.
I have been there before the remodel
do they still make it so you need to have kids to go in? I want to get some of the cardboard pizza a beer and a salad and play some cool games and remember being a kid.
