533 S Broad St was a Chuck E. Cheese's that opened on January 30, 2002 and closed on May 19, 2013 with a Studio C Beta, 32m.

Stage

Meriden's only stage was a Studio C Beta, 32m. Around 2009-2011, the curtains were disabled, and by 2011, Chuck received the Avenger shirt. The stage would remain like this until closure in 2013.

History

Meriden opened on January 30, 2002 with the Phase 3 remodel and a Studio C Beta. Unfortunately, not much is known about this location, other than a few videos that were taken throughout Meriden's history. Meriden was left untouched until May 19, 2013, when they would permanently close due to leasing issues. The building sat vacant for a short period until it was gutted and was split up between a GMC shop and PetSmart. As of July 2023, they are still there.
