Mentor, OH (8000 Plaza Blvd)

Mentor, OH (8000 Plaza Blvd). is a Chuck E. Cheese's located across the street from Great Lakes Mall in Mentor OH. It opened as a Pizza Time Theatre, then became one of the 7 Pizza Time Theatres rebranded to Marc's Funtime Pizza Palace.

Pizza Time Theatre
Mentor opened as a Pizza Time Theatre in the 1980's, and had a balcony stage. It also featured The King, and Doli Dimples. At some point the balcony was converted to a C Stage.

Marc's Funtime Pizza Palace
In the late 80's Marc Glassman, owner of the Marc's grocery chain, purchased the Mentor Pizza Time Theatre when the franchise owner left the area and the store was converted to Marc's Funtime Pizza Palace. Like the other Marc's locations, Mentor location would keep the exisiting stage, but convert the characters. The location would end up closing in 1996.

Chuck E. Cheese's
After Funtime closed, Mentor would reopen as a CEC in a new location on July 20, 1998. The store would be the last new store to open with a Cyberamic stage, as Studio C Alphas were being installed in stores by this point. The location got the 2005 remodel in 2006, and expanded in 2009.
