We had been to a couple of Hooters locations back in the 90’s and have no desire to return.

The food was comparable to school lunch quality. Scenery aside, nothing appealed to us to return and spend money there.

Have to admit that I was surprised to see them wanting to open a place in TV. But hey, who knows what chain will take over the building in a few years.

Didn’t see that one coming? It was in the paper over a year ago that Hooters was planning a restaurant in TV. The potential location, however, was not announced.

We often go to Hooters just for the breaded wings and curly fries.
Once you go naked wings, you never go back. Why cover such lovely specimens? As a really good cook lady friend always said, you eat with your eyes, too. Damn, was she right.

To have any chance....it’s gotta be near Eastport/Middleton. IMO

The poster said they rarely post. That does not mean they rarely come to the site or rarely laugh at the amateur comedians.

I knew where this thread was going to go when I read the headline and I am reading the posts the same as I used to read the articles in Playboy. Hustler, on the other hand…

I too want to enjoy the rest of my life, and I enjoy the smiles of attractive young women. They remind me of the good old days when such smiles were genuine.

I too find it strange (and sad) how many people are hostile to others' enjoyment.

Why not? It suits most Villagers.

Exactly
Interesting to see a certain poster asking another to 'filter' what they read. What a way to navigate life!

Food at Hooters has always been good, especially their chicken sandwich and their wings.

I’m looking forward to another good food option.

Variety of restaurants is a good thing, do not understand why people are so hostile to Hooters?

Dinner time came to pass so we guys cleaned up the kids and took them to the nearest restaurant, Hooters. Four guys with eight pre-school aged kiddos. The wait staff treated us like royalty. And, they had high chairs for the babies. Hooters is a great place.
