4646 Okeechobee Blvd, Store #432 was a Chuck E. Cheese's Pizza/Chuck E. Cheeses in West Palm Beach, Florida. The store opened on December 18, 1990, with a Prototype Road Stage and closed in December 2004 due to a hurricane.

This is not to be confused with the Pizza Time Theatre on 2101 Palm Beach Lakes which opened in December 1982 (Unknown Day) and closed in late 1984 (Unknown Month and Day) with a Balcony Stage or the current location on 2471 Okeechobee Blvd which opened on December 26, 2013 with a Circles of Light, 32M and received 2.0 in March 2022, which is still open to this day.

History

West Palm Beach opened on December 18th, 1990, with one of three (Excluding Corporate) Prototype Road Stages (The others being Jonesboro & Springfield, PA) in a freestanding building located in the Pine Trail Shopping Center. This store was known to have no ceilings due to the previous tenant (Which was unknown). They opened with the 1988 update to the 1986 SPT Remodel Program, containing checkers around the store, awnings above the menu, prize area, and salad bar, late '80s décor, and of course, the Prototype Road Stage itself.

In 1991/1992, the Road Stage Prototype was removed and replaced with a finalized one which also had no ceiling. By 1993, the store received another minor remodel which involved replacing some of the decor with 1990's decor. The store then received another remodel in the Mid-Late 1990s which involved removing elements from the 1988 Update and replacing them with new decor from that time and the exterior signage was replaced which was the store's final remodel.

In December 2004, the store was closed due to hurricane damage. The store remained vacant for a few years until the building was demolished for a TD Bank in around 2007. As of June 2023, TD Bank still remains on the site.
