I agree with OP. Have never been to one because the whole concept is "pay more for food served by tiddies". It seems degrading to the women and I know as a man I find it kind of insulting they think I'm that simple.

Yes, gross, and please don't come up with a male version. That's gross too.

The food sucks

went once to a hooters many many years ago. wings were meh at best. The women looked annoyed to be working. It was a poor experience. never again.

I'm a straight guy and I don't have any issues with places like this or stripclubs but they aren't for me. I always feel self-conscious more than anything. But if the women working there are okay with people coming in wanting to look at you then more power to everyone.

My grandma used to rave about their wings too lol

I often see women in public dressed in skimpier outfits than Hooters staff wear. And women opt work there on their own free will. It has paved the way for other restaurants of the same style like Tilted Kilt, which has much skimpier outfits, but their food pales in comparison. Hooters actually has really good food, which is the main reason for the repeat business.

I wont go to a place that turns women working there into things to be displayed!

They are dressed more modestly than half the women on the street right now and all the women at the beach.

My dad and his girlfriend at the time no joke took me there for my 19th bday as a "surprise" it was terrible.

Same with Twin Peaks, which for some reason seems more offensive to me because the name seems a little more subtle than Hooters.

I actually like the food. The atomic wings and crawfish platter are great. I don't care for the "breastraunt" theme, but whatever. I live off the beach in SoFla and there are plenty of gorgeous women from all over the world prancing around in much less on their own accord - if I wanted to sight-see. Funny thing, my gf actually suggested "Twin Peaks" (another breastraunt chain, essentially the same model) for our first date. I'd never been, and didn't know what is was. Turns out she just really likes their Greek salad.

I've been friends with or dated several hooters girls. I myself am too unattractive to work there but I would if I could! They made good money and as long as your manager or franchise owner is female they get treated really well.

And you think Twin Peaks are better? LOL

Same thing with Twin Peaks.

Eaten there once. Wings are terrible. Mostly breading. Not worth it for some ladies in skimpy tops and tight shorts

I think my text typing skills suck

I have a gift card from 2015 and have yet to use it... and there have been times when I was hungry with no money. I can't bring myself to go in there.

Been going to Hooters for over 24 years. Love the wings and love most of their food. I have one across the street from where I live. Gonna be there Friday afternoon for a pitcher of Miller Lite and 3mile Island hot wings. Woohoo!!

This is on my, "Does not bother me or change my world list at all". I love the wings. The boobs don't interest me. These girls are making bank with it all covered. It's an honest job. Y'all get down off those pedestals and go have wings and a beer or 4, you need it.

Irrespective of the other "benefits," Hooters has great wings and burgers.

I avoid what used to be one of my favorite restaurants. When things were opening back up, the owner went on social media complaining that they only had the staff to open one of their three locations because "no one wants to work anymore." He claimed everyone was living large off their stimulus checks and didn't want to come back to work. I looked up what he got for a PPP loan and it was over $400,000 and he didn't have to pay it back. There is a reason his staff didn't want to come to work for him, but it wasn't due to their paltry stimulus checks.

Jimmy John's is owned by Roark Capital and 98% of the restaurants are franchises. Mr. Big Game Hunter isn't getting a penny from your sandwich.

Best chain fast food in my opinion. I was never drawn to it as a food court staple, however in 2003 one was put in next to our office before all the gay shaming, Christian values c**p flared. They often brought breakfast for our large office and gave out coupons for free food, free! no strings attached. I did the past again after the s**t hit the fan. Then I learned a gay kid I'd known since forever was working at one. Went and discovered many other obvious gay employees. I like their food, the cleanliness of the restaurants, they well groomed and well spoken employees. I hate they are closed on Sundays. But I kind of like that too, for employees sake.

another stupid listing, like saying I won't eat anywhere owned by liberal or a socialist, or....

I still love their Mac and cheese. Never had anything else

Olive Garden, loved by those who have no clue what real Italian food is.

If a restaurant is going to open doors in the middle of a public health emergency, I have little faith in the cleanliness of their establishment.

It's a trough

Surely the diarrhea does SOMETHING to you?

The over salted everything

Their bread tastes funny.

Maybe OP is alleegic to something in the ingredients.

if you want the restaurant experience at home, just add lots of butter to the dish you are making.

Any 'Restaurant' that has more than 8 main courses on their menu (unless it's a variation on a theme - like Pizza - ) should be looked at closely, especially if there are more than 50 covers in the place.

You pay 20$ for 2$ worth of food

I've always thought Subways smell really bad. We have one in our neighborhood and just walking past it, the smell is terrible. The one my cousin always wanted to go to in college, smelled. They just stink and it isn't appetizing.

The $5 biggie bag is a deal you can't beat though

I hate when people go on about shady businesses, but refuse to call the business out by name. Super sus every time.

Not that I’m defending Domino’s, but any story about the actions of one franchise probably does not represent the whole chain. Often, these stories are individual franchise owners cutting corners to save money, not because of corporate policy.

So, the problem is you, not McDonald's

Oh my goodness, pierogi pizza. I want to try that just once.

People watch their meal being made right in front of them at Subway, but there are many problems that doesn't prevent.

LOL, it never was.

I have to laugh.... White Castle burgers were the original "Sliders". Then, some brilliant marketing person thought that was a cool phrase, and now everyone (Arby's, etc.) advertises their "Sliders" Hey.. stupid... they are called "Sliders" because they "slide right through you". Not something that you should be embracing....
