Chuck E. Cheese Middletown, NJ Covid Store Tour

Since stores are now opening up, CEC has decided to make some changes throughout the restaurants to implement social distancing and help make guests visits safer! Part of these changes were closing certain games in the restaurant, closing certain areas, closing multiplayer games, and moving them around to different areas in the restaurant. They also put hand sanitizing stations, a bunch of arrows, and red "Thank you for Social Distancing" stickers on the floors. In addition, they have also closed some of the seating and the ticket blaster. So yeah LOTS of changes lol. This video, which is basically a store tour, shows the unique changes and different stuff put in to make it more safe. As you can see, they have also moved games to the showroom right in front of the stage which has never been done before. While I admit it is cool and unique stores are moving the games to the showroom, it now becomes kind of a distraction from the show but they've been making distractions for the show for years now so ain't nothing different lol. At least before there was an entire room dedicated to the show now with this brief period where games will be in the showroom it might be a bit harder to see the whole show and not have the games in the way. Thankfully I was able to still get some good angles despite them being in the way. We'll see how long this lasts hopefully people continue to social distance and avoid outside contact as much as they possibly can.

It was pretty interesting to me to see the Toddler Zone closed as that's one of the most iconic things about this store that they still feature. It was also interesting to see the games in the showroom (which again, just didn't like how some were in front of the show) and this is definitely a really unique and unusual time. While I don't encourage going out for nonessential things like Chuck E. Cheese, it was pretty cool and quite a unique CEC experience seeing the store like this. And NJ has suspended indoor dining so when you can't dine indoors what do you do? Dine outdoors! And it was actually really cool eating CEC pizza outside while the sun sets on a nice summer day! So again, I don't encourage going out for nonessentials but if you can social distance and stay as contact-less as possible, you could have a pretty unique experience as well! I'm trying not to go out much, haven't really gone anywhere but CEC since March tbh LOL but please remember to wash your hands, wear your mask (like Chuck on the thumbnail 😉), and social distance! Stay safe everyone and thanks for watching!
