The Scene
Because we do not yet have a synthesized review summary or a structured set of review highlights for this listing, the picture of the venue is drawn directly from the public record: the name on the door, the address, the hours, and the category returned by mapping data. The venue is tagged as a “Video arcade,” which signals a coin-and-card-driven game floor rather than a pinball-only bar or a retro cabinet museum.
The 4.2 overall rating across 934 Google reviews indicates a generally positive reception, in line with the broader family entertainment center format the brand is known for. Visitors browsing the listing should treat that number as a starting point rather than a verdict; for a deeper read on the Youngstown arcade scene as a whole, the arcade finder directory and the interactive arcade map give a clearer sense of how this venue stacks up against its neighbors.
If you have visited the Boardman location recently and want to help future readers, the listing can be expanded with a richer summary, owner response, and theme-based highlights. Venue operators who want to add their own hours, photos, and party information can do so through the claim your listing page.
Games & Machines
The public record does not include a machine-by-machine inventory or a list of specific titles for this location, so this section describes only what the venue category implies. As a video arcade in a family entertainment center format, the game floor at Chuck E. Cheese is typically built around redemption and ticket-eject titles, driving games, sports-style challenges, and a rotating cast of newer releases aimed at younger players.
Because no specific game list, prize counter details, or pinball lineup is recorded for this listing, RetroArcade.com does not name any individual titles here. Readers looking for a verified, machine-level breakdown of the game floor are encouraged to check the official website linked in the table above, or to compare this venue with the more explicitly retro-focused Fun ‘N’ Games Rewind and Past Times Arcade elsewhere in the Youngstown area.
Visiting
The venue’s recorded address is Boardman, OH, which places it within the Mahoning County suburbs of Youngstown rather than the downtown core. Drivers coming from Youngstown, Poland, Canfield, or Niles will generally reach the location via the South Avenue / US-224 corridor or by way of I-680, depending on route preferences. As with any suburban entertainment center, plan on arriving by car and budgeting a little extra time on weekend evenings when birthday parties and group bookings are common.
Hours follow a clear weekly pattern. Sunday is the shorter day, running from 11AM to 9PM. Monday through Thursday open earlier at 10AM and close at 9PM, while Friday and Saturday extend to a 10PM close. That makes weekday afternoons and early evenings the easiest slots for smaller groups, while the weekend late-night window is the natural fit for families who want to stay past dinner.
The official Boardman website linked above is the best source for current pricing, age policies, food and drink options, and party booking details, none of which are captured in the listing record itself. Anyone planning a birthday party, school outing, or large group visit should confirm directly with the venue by phone at +1 330-629-9929 before finalizing plans.
