Live from the Restaurant Leadership Conference in Scottsdale, the Hospitality Hangout team sits down with Scott Drake to talk about how Chuck E. Cheese has evolved with a new generation of families, kids, and consumers.
Scott shares how the brand modernized the Chuck E. Cheese experience through digital interactive environments, active play concepts, memberships, media content, loyalty programs, and experiential entertainment while still keeping the nostalgia and emotional connection generations grew up with. The conversation dives into the future of family entertainment, restaurant memberships, employee culture, experiential dining, Peter Piper Pizza, Adventure World, modern hospitality trends, and how Chuck E. Cheese continues adapting to changing consumer behavior in 2026.
