Hooters

It has been years since I have been in a Hooters.

We ran a Spartan Race in Laurel, Indiana and saw that one was close to I75 and I70 so we swooped in for dinner and some beers before the trip back up north to Michigan.

Hostess staff was courteous and fast.

Our waitress was right at the table taking orders and making suggestions. She was on the ball, very nice and professional.

We smashed 40 wings together and a burger each and two pitchers of beer. Food was good, hot and delivered fast. Our waitress made several trips to the table to make sure we were good to go.

There was a table full of drunk and obnoxious firemen that were all wearing their local shirts (does a fireman ever leave the house without telling the world what he does for a living, anyway?) that was giving our waitress a hard time.  They were rude, drunk and acting like idiots. We tipped out our waitress more and apologized that she had to deal with those clowns.

Food and service was good, the staff was on the ball. I am glad we made the trip in. If the race is held again same spot next year, we'll make the trip to Hooters again.

Food:  The food is fine at this location and it's pretty typical of any Hooters chain.  I've never had a bad experience.  I like the traditional wings, hot.  Hooters sauce, as far as spiciness goes, is more on the mild side.  

Waitresses:  Mixed emotions here.  Most are fairly pretty to look at.  Some put out all the stops and sit down with you when you order and talk for a little bit.  Others seem despondent.  It just depends who you get and who you're with.  For example, when a female comes with my group of guys, it seems to change the way the waitress interacts with the group.

Service:  Regardless of the trivial social interactions with the waitresses, the service is always good here.  Never need to worry about a refill or waiting for a forgotten order of ranch.

I keep going back and thanks for the military discount!

Michael: I'll have the chicken breast, minus the chicken (snickers).
Hooters Waitress: Is that what you really want?  
Michael: (With Shame) No, I'll just have the gourmet hotdog.

Okay, so if you don't watch The Office on NBC, I apologize, but I just had to fit that quote in.  

The service at Hooters was great.  The waitress was nice, and not just to the ogling men.  Yes, I know that Hooters is a huge chain restaurant, and I know that they objectify women, but boo hoo.  I don't care.  I like this place.  I got to watch sports on the big flat screen televisions, and watch guys make fools of themselves while they try to hit on the waitresses.  Food was good too.
