I'm not sure why I want to giggle every time I think about Hooters, but I do. There's a special place in my heart for every Hooters in America... even the more dingy ones.
Came in for lunch with a friend, and was greeted with all smiles. Their specials were very well priced. The beers were fresh and cheap. And of course, the wings were great! The waitresses were suuuuper happy, friendly and accommodating.
First off, it's Hooters. Â For what it is, it's pretty damn good.
A. $1.99 domestic pints. Â Can't beat that at all.
B. Wings are actually pretty damn good. Â Naked and hot are my go to. Â Daytona is a close second.
C. Surrounded by sports... Â Screens everywhere.
D. The servers are nice, as long as you don't go in acting all creepy and pervy.
For hanging out and watching sports with the guys, not a bad choice. Â Especially given the area.
Lemme just begin by saying that I came here for the food. It's like those wonderful articles in that Playboy magazine. The boneless wings in spicy garlic sauce! MMM! Plus the waitresses are super nice and she told me I made a great choice cuz it's her favorite too! I think she liked us cuz she drew this little heart on our checks! I left her a lot of extra money cuz I like her too :) I wonder if she would go to prom with me...
Review Source:WHOA.
THIS PLACE IS THE TITS (ha - low hanging fruit, I know, but it had to be said.)
Why so negative folks?!
Rolled in there with my son Paxton on Saturday to celebrate his 2 month birthday...he's a man now.
Immediately were greeted by the manager with a car seat holder for us to put Pax in - our son goes everywhere with us and this is seriously the first restaurant that has made sure we were properly accommodated. Â Big screens up with the Olympics and Yankees game. Â Clean. Â The music was awful. Â Awful. Â Like pop music, but shit I've never heard before...just awful. Â One random Tom Petty song and I was like "maybe?! Â maybe this will get better?!" Â Nope.
I got a Goose Cosmo and it was $4.00. Â Four freaking dollars. Â Wings were good as usual, I got the hot dog and that was a big dog! Â (twss)
The actual server was okay - a little less attentive than I would have liked hence the four stars versus the five...found ourselves several times having to flag her down and they weren't that busy.
Overall, maybe I'm just still in mourning over my Maple Shade Hooters closing so every single Hooters will always be magical in my eyes, but I really think this is a solid one. Â All of the girls were cute too! Â Definitely didn't have the JV squad on, and it was a slow Saturday mid afternoon.
Arrgghhhh! I cannot believe it has come to this ... I'm at a Hooters! And now that I'm here, I really cannot say why, except for a lack of options, and an excessively Polyanna attitude. Â Definitely, laziness and weather trumped the desire for excellence tonight. Â I do profess that I entered here with high hopes, but now I find that expectation excessively naive.
Beer: First off, the beer selection is lousy (especially bad considering the spirit of the times, when even the corner pub has craft beers on tap), and the food is pedestrian. Want to know what ales are on tap? Â Expect a complete recitation of all draft beers. Â After all, "ale" and "lager" are just synonyms for "beer", right?
Staff: Hooter's claim to fame, of course, has historically been the waitresses. God luv'em, but I JUST DON'T CARE. Â "Delightfully Tacky" long ago became "Just Plain Tacky". Â The "costumes" are Just Plain Ugly, from the support hose, the dirty white tennis shoes, the stretched-out socks, and the bulletproof bras, there is just nothing appealing about them. Â Now, I will not paint the entire waitstaff with the same brush, but I do see a preponderance of pregnant substance-abuse victims here.
To be fair, my waitress  tonight was attentive and friendly, even though she did flip out on the "ale vs. lager" question, and then tried to convince me about what a great bartender she was. The worst part was that when SHE was leaving and closing out my check, she threw away the charge detail - which meant that I could not expense the dinner (company rules require a charge detail). When I pressed her for it, she got quite snotty, and attempted to explain that in order to retrieve it she would have to dig through the garbage for it (and I do not have to tell you what an obviously outlandish idea THAT was!) Importantly, this occurred after I had written the bulk of this review, so her attitude did not really affect this!).
Food: The food is great, as long a you like it deep fried, and are not too picky as to things like "flavor", "visual appeal", or "what sort of animal you are eating". While previously known for their wings, these wings were Just Plain Boring. The hot sauce was hot without taste, and the "chicken" was stringy. (blecch!) Â How can you go SO wrong with chicken wings?!?!
Positives: Â (Searching... searching... hold on a bit ... still searching...)
Well, the beer was cold. And you can be sure to get any beer you want, as long as you want Bud, Bud Light, or Coors Light. Â And talk about inventiveness! Â Who knew that you could construct most of a bar out of recycled plumbing equipment? Â There was free WiFi, but the signal was so weak I connected to a hot-spot from a neighboring establishment.
Specials: Kids Eat Free on Saturdays? Seriously? Â Its like a school sponsoring "Take A Gun To Class Day"!
Final assessment: please, spare yourself. Â Methinks Definitely not.
We had to return later that night (thursday around 11pm) because when we came here around 8pm, they had a bikini contest and the place was packed with drunk old men and we couldn't get a table.
It was me and another female friend. We came here for the wings and beer. They have everyday special of coors light pitcher for $7.89. We got an order of that and 10 piece of the buffalo wings for $10.95(you can pick how spicy you want it, and we got hot). I found that it was kind of ridiculous they charged another $2 dollars for a side of celery sticks and blue cheese dressing.
The wings were good, breaded and seasoned well. I eat very spicy so I didn't find the wings very spicy that I had to add Tabasco sauce on top of that Â
The service was really just okay. Given that the waitresses were all girls and it was me and my female friend, of course they were not going to be very friendly with us.
But overall not a bad place, just don't come here on a bikini night or else you will be surrounded by creepy weird guys and won't be able to get a table.
came here on cinco de mayo because the wait at Chevys next door was ridiculously long (not worth the 90 min wait IMO). they weren't too busy and we seated ourselves. they had a few beers on tap but mostly domestic. decor and environment was like your typical hooters, background music, sports on tvs throughout and okay girls. Â we were greeted promptly and our server took time to share with us specials so we would get our moneys worth. (thanks chels!) their 'lots of tots' (baked potato style tator tots) was really good (w/ sour cream and bacon bits). the pickle chips are a must! it may sound weird at first but they are pretty addicting just like the menu says. everything came out pretty fast. the only thing was our waitress forget to bring out our celery and bluecheese. Â hooters, regardless of location is always good for hangout and wallet friendly food and drinks
Review Source:Hooter's is a chain restaurant whose premise is bar food (wings, etc), cold beer and great looking waitresses.
Unfortunately, they don't always deliver all three at once. The wings are pretty good-the breaded variety-which holds good amounts of sauce, but also great amounts of grease. They have about five different Buffalo wing sauces with varying amounts of heat. Oddly, they also serve fresh oysters-which seems out of character-and they weren't too bad-but I wouldn't order them again. Everything is pretty much fried-they even have fried pickles!
The beer is always real cold-and have a decent selection-which is probably their strength. Many TVs showing different sporting events are all around.
Service is spotty. While they probably have cute, young female servers who are in the best shape (they need to be to fit into those tight tank tops and skimpy orange shorts), personality-wise they are alot to be desired. I notice the girls smooze the younger guys-sitting with them and chatting while they take their order-but if you're 30 something or older you're lucky if you get a smile. I'm sure they're only working their tips. I'm not flattering myself at all, but I get more of  smile and sense of appreciation ordering a Quarter Pounder at McDonald's than from eating at this Hooter's. Lastly, definitely touch as little as possible in the Men's Room-I have been to clearner gas station bathrooms at truck stops than at this Hooter's.
Hooter's is an OK place to maybe have a beer and some wings and watch a game-but you get better wings, at a better price with better service, at many other places.
I forgot which Hooter's I went to but the first time I went was a horrible experience. Â The waitress said there were no more hot dog buns. Â So they used sandwich bread for my hot dog. Â Service was shitty and funny thing was we were like the only one's there dining. Â It was late too. Â I never looked back. Â Not even girls with orange short shorts and tight shirts will make me come here ever again!
Review Source:If you have never been to a Hooters then you just don't get it. When we arrived this Hooters was located inside a shopping center and wasn't that busy. We were greeted by many females with their Hooters popping out. I like the idea that we get to pick where we want to sit. I don't like the idea that we don't get to pick what girl serves us.
Our waitress fit the blonde stereotype perfectly. You expect to have a good time at Hooters and she didn't bring her A game. She also forgot a part of our order. I wasn't impressed by her skills or her Hooters.
The food at Hooters is typical bar food. After you eat here you can easily fall into a food coma. I did love the buffalo shrimp so much that I had to order another round. The loaded tots are good to share and you need to eat then with a fork. I do love the fact that you have a roll of paper towels at the table.
The beer here is alright. Our Hooters girl poured us glasses from our pitcher. My glass was served with a crack in it. This is a huge safety and health hazard. The bathroom in the Hooters of Princeton is the dirtiest and most disgusting restaurant bathroom I have ever been in. There was even poo on the toilet seat. I would definitely try to find another Hooters to visit if you want to see Hooters.
This is definately my favorite Hooters I have been to. Â Friendly staff. Â The food is amazing. Â (It's the usual Hooters food. Â They basically always taste the same from place to place but I have noticed that I do like the food here a little than the other's.) Â The atmosphere is great though and that's what matters in a place like this.
