Bowling Alley, Chuck E. Cheese etc. near DLR?

[MomBoyd]

Is there a bowling alley or a Chuck E. Cheese-type location near Disneyland? It would need to be somewhere within easy walking distance or accessible by the ART Shuttle. My DH & DS(7) want to save the “Disney stuff” for when I have finished my conference and can do it all with them. They have plans for most of the time, but need to fill a few more hours.

The Block at Orange has a couple of places that might work. There's a Dave & Busters, an upscale bowling alley (I have no idea what that means maybe someone else can help out) and a big arcade type place called the Power House (that my son loves because he can play for tickets and it's not as expensive as Dave & Busters).

The Block wouldn't be accessable by ART shuttle, but OCTA busses could get you there. I really don't think there are any in the immediate area.

There is a Chuck-E-Cheese up Harbor Blvd in Fullerton. You could take the OCTA #43 bus up there, and ask to get off at the Orangethorpe stop, next to the In-N-Out Burger. It's in the center behind In-N-Out.

There's also a bowling alley (AMF Carter Bowl) at Lemon St and Orangefair Ave (hey, this is Orange County), which is about 3/4 mile away.

And about halfway between is the Disney Character Warehouse, at Lemon and Orangethorpe.

Sorry if this is a no-brainer type question, but this May will be our first visit to California. I am correct in thinking we could take the same bus route and get off at the Orangethorpe stop to get to the Disney Character Warehouse?

TIA for any assistance or suggestions you may have for us!

Yes, definitely. You'd cross Orangethorpe and then walk a city block east to Lemon & Orangethorpe. (Note that the Character Warehouse isn't actually run by Disney, so don't be disappointed if it's more warehouse than anything else. http://www.ams-liquidation.com/stores.htm)

There are some good food options in the area - my favorite being Ruby's Diner on the S/W corner of Harbor/Orangethorpe. Also El Torito, Tony Roma's, and In-N-Out besides numerous other fast food places.

Thanks, jlmarr!

I have always heard good things about In-N-Out and I loved the Tony Roma's in Orlando... seems like we might be heading over that way to dine on several occasions!
