I didn't have many but I remember my fifth birthday party which was a couple years before my grandfather died in 1986.
He was into electronics and technology and as such he had worked for LP&L for close to 45 years. They let him come back to his job after WWII. He was always fascinated by the Rock-a-Fire Explosion so my fifth birthday was at Showbiz Pizza.
It will always have a special place in my heart till they decided to replace the characters with that rat bastard Chuck E Cheese and his cavalcade of bullshite characters and shite pizza. Then again it wasn't the company's fault, it was Aaron Fechter and his delusions of grandeur thinking he could take those characters past Showbiz.

An ancient McDonald's that's been gone forever
Roller Express skating rink
At least 2 at Chuck E Cheese
Mazzio's pizza
Family life center in a church
That's what I can remember.

I think this was common for a lot of people. I saw them often when i was a kid. I always had house parties

Home with brother and parents.
Sometimes my grandparents were in town.
Birthday parties were not a production with themes, venues, etc. just a cake after supper, some cash from relatives and a few presents from nuclear family.
Simpler times.
My kids birthdays were productions. I’m not sure what changed in a generation.
