Update - I drove by this the other night. It was all lit up and looked like nothing inside had been touched since you filmed this. However, there is a big "Coming Soon" sign over the front. I didn't notice anything else. Wonder if they're considering re-opening it? That would be interesting after remodeling it to a 2.0 store and tearing it down just months later.
Wow, closed with 2.0. Looks like they’re still working on clearing it out. Aside from the arcade games, you can still see the six T.V. mounts hanging from the ceiling over the dance floor.
Sad to hear, that this location recently closed, I went there back in 2006 and 2007, when the location was Phase 3, housed a Studio C Beta, and it was the last location in Illinois to have that until around September of 2019, when it got remodeled to 2.0 with Chuck E's Dance Floor. It closed on June 18, 2020.
I heard recently that this is soon going to be Liquor Barn (obviously, no kids allowed there, as this store exclusively sells alcohol), taking in the old Chuck E. Cheese space this year.
That’s sad the childhood of growing up late 80’s thru the 90’s / toys R US , blockbuster , kid stores , Nickelodeon studios at universal studios Orlando and other. ( I was born in November 1984 )
Just learned about this location closing right around the same time you shot this video. Those colored panels on the back wall are where the animatronics used to be. They ripped all of that out when they closed the store for a bit in 2019 to do a remodel. Replaced it with a dance floor and a bunch of TV's. Got to take my kids there once this past Dec to see the remodel. That machine on the left wall with the silver chair attached was one of their favorite rides. Sucks they spent all of that money on the remodel and then this happens. Haven't even told my kids yet. They're gonna be devastated.
WOW, another abandoned Chuck E Cheeses! There's a couple others somewhat near me just a bit too far outta reach for me right now unfortunately. Hoping one day I can make it to more!
This store just closed recently. This store got the 2.0 remodel. But, they that recently they Closed down. And back there is where the dance floor used to be. And some of the games are left inside. And most of the poster are gone. And the kid check and the tables and the tables light's are also gone. And the and also to the right side is where the were the prize counter, the salad bar and where you order your food. And also were where you get your drink. And back there will be the costume room and the restrooms. And it's looks like it closed during the carry out. Sad to see chuck e cheese's go bankrupt. Because i love playing the games. Having fun dancing with chuck e. And eating the food. And collecting the merch. Nice video. Keep up your great work. 🥺👍
We Thankyou. Over here we had Chuck E. Cheese and a place called fun-n-pizza. What’s left for kids too get together and play games and eat pizza. What a crazy world now.
3:00 that's back there used to be the prize counter. Where you got your toys and Candy at. I love to go there when i'm done with my tickets. And I pick out my prize. That's had to be the best part about chuck e cheese. And also the shows too. And also the yummy food and the awesome games. I love anything to do with food and Games. And of course chuck e cheese. Because I love chuck e cheese and i'm a fan of it
@@mallaholicretailadventures Really this whole pandemic has scared people from shopping storm and drinking the Amazon kool aid. Very sad but this COVID thing may have very well been the final nail in the coffin for brick & mortar as a whole
Nice that you came here too, and you mispronounced Matteson wrong, otherwise, great video, I remember coming here 1 week before they Remodeled, I prefer their old remodel
The mall was not busy for a Saturday for this time of year. Victoria's secret isn't open yet. The Carson wing is empty. They're doing like fox valley with the renovation to the center court. Mundelein is a waste land. Stay tuned for more from up that way.
For some reason the number is now owned by Pink Panthers and. I called it and it said call is being recorded and someone said thank you for calling pink panthers and I’m like WHAT THE FUCK!?! So I hung up 😂 then I call again they decline my call just bcz I was on mute

I’m so very sad

They just spent about $500,000 to remodel this store in around Sept 2019 only for it to close a few months later
it was a 2.0 tho
They probably didn’t know about the pandemic until they had to find out the hard way
It's a rare sight to see a closed 2.0 store
The rainbow wall is where the animatronics were before the 2.0!
i never saw a abandoned 2.0 chuck e cheese
These Chuck e Cheese videos are great, thanks for recording this stuff 👍
Thank you.
Is that the red purple blue green and yellow on the wall

This Store used to have a Studio C And phase 3
You been finding a lot of the old CECs locations! I hope there’s even more coming up! Keep up the great video!

I remember going here before they remodeled. Not the best Chuck E. Cheese ever, but I sure will miss it.

We Thankyou. Over here we had Chuck E. Cheese and a place called fun-n-pizza. What’s left for kids too get together and play games and eat pizza. What a crazy world now.
Seems like a much smaller location than the Rockford location. Sad to see these childhood staples leaving
I’m sorry for the loss Chuck E. Cheese’s place closed forever
They had just remodeled this location either end of 2019 or early 2020. I hadn’t been there since the remodel
WAIT WHATTT Chuck e Cheeses is closed??? I live in vernon hills and didn't even noticed this.

Hawthorn Mall time!
Although I kind of think Vernon Hills in the retail scene might be dying there a little bit?
I filmed this today, Saturday. Back to school time. Not busy at all. Not good. I think even Illinois suspended sales tax for a weekend. Wow!!!

Damn Wind

And there goes my favorite location….. I missed it I was there for my 7th birthday and now I’m really sad :(
Great video
You drive a Honda Accord?
Yep
This space is now a liquor barn
A Liquor Store Managed to Take over the store..
Seems like Vernon Hills is getting to be kind of a wasteland. How are the malls up there doing?
