History
Following the closure announcement of its original location at 1660 US-22 in 2019, plans emerged to relocate the original Union CEC to the Route 22 Retail Center. However, due to COVID-19 and the company falling into bankruptcy in 2020, the plans were put to a halt until 2022.

This location was a former Petco that relocated in 2019. After the building was vacated, a Spirit Halloween occupied the space for two Halloween seasons.

In May 2022 a sign was put in the window to signify that a new Chuck E. Cheese location was coming soon, and construction slowly began.

On May 15th, 2023, the location had its soft opening, with Chuck E. Cheese fan 'Dr. EZ " being the first guest to step foot inside the location.

The grand opening date for this store was originally set for June 9th, 2023, but was postponed a day before the supposed date due to the Canadian wildfires happening at the time, reportedly moving the grand opening date to June 22nd.
