Tallahassee's exterior in 2011. (PC: Google Maps)

2810 Sharer Rd, Store #680 is a Chuck E. Cheese's Pizza that opened on April 7, 1992 with a 3-Stage and is still in operation to this very day. Like very few stores, this location has not remodeled since the mid 1990s. They have a Phase 5 exterior, but they do have a Phase 3 exterior inside.

Despite having a 3-Stage, this location was not a former Showbiz Pizza, just like Fullerton, CA's store when they opened a year earlier in December 1991.

Stages

Tallahassee opened with a 3-Stage. Despite opening with one, this location was never a SPP, as they opened in 1992. As of 2023, the stage is in horrible condition, as most movements are broken, and the cosmetics are very dirty.

History

Tallahassee opened on April 7, 1992 with a 3-Stage from a SPP location that closed or received a different show. It originally featured the 1988 remodel, which included checkers, blue and white awnings, and red awnings on the exterior. After opening, the location was featured in the Chuck E Cheese Live Show Highlight Film along with 8 other stores (It was the only one in Florida to be featured). In 1994-1996, they received Phase 1 of the 1990s Major Remodel, which involved removing all elements of the 1988 remodel, removed most of the checkers, changed the logo to Thumb Chuck, removed the "Pizza" lettering on the exterior, and changed the showroom. They would later receive Phase 2 and Phase 3 game packages in their respective years. On December 29th, 2007; Tallahassee would be bought by CEC Corporate. Tallahassee remained like this until 2015-2017, when they changed the exterior to a standard Phase 5 exterior likely due to wear-and-tear. The exterior was not taken care of according to Street View. As of 2023, Tallahassee remains operational.
