Hooters is not a family restaurant.

lanie26

I'm not sure what is going on here but I just spat out my milk at the "Hooters is a family restaurant' comment. I don't care who takes their kids there but it is HILARIOUS that someone would put that it was a family restaurant.?

. I'm now going to subscribe to the hooters magazine for jo. Its a family magazine after all. ?

True story:  Some months back, someone on here posted that her brother (or sister, I forget) was going to have her nephew's 1st birthday party - and all subsequent b-day parties - at Hooters.  A bunch of people chimed in with comments like, "What an cool/unusual place to have a party."  I was horrified.

No, you're right. ?Not a family restaurant. ?Just like Chuckee Cheese isn't an adult restaruant, but we get drug there from time to time and I certainly don't feel peeved out by the big mouse.

Lanie do you want to borrow my blinkies?

Come on, Lanie. You wouldn't take your great grammy to Hooters on Easter Sunday? It is a FAMILY restaurant, for god's sake.

My grandmother would have a heart attack, personally. She'd probably start swearing and swinging her big purse. Wouldn't even have time to snatch what was put out on the table, like Splenda and the like (does Hooters even have this?!).?

For my grandmother not to nab the condiments put out, you know that Hooters is a bit fat fail in family territory.?

Shiiit, I take the girls to the local strip club for wings and beer every Tuesday night. I mean, it is a family friendly place...right??

Agree - I have seen kids there a lot. White trash...hmmm..I think not!

I refuse to eat at a restaurant named for women's breasts.

I wouldn't necessarily say that it's a family restaurant but, if we had some strange reason to go there (the food isn't good so I wouldn't choose to go), I wouldn't think it was bad to bring my DS there.  It's short shorts and low tops... would I not take him to the beach because he might see some asss and cleavage?  And I definitely wouldn't go as far as LOTR and say they're all slutz.  I mean really, they're not on the pole.  They're servers that happen to have a small uniform and I see worse on the waitresses at casinos and night clubs.

They aren't big up here. BAHAHAHAHA. I just made myself laugh with that. I mean the restaurants aren't big up here. I think I know of like 2 but they would be a drive.?

If hooters is the most family friendly option in your area, I apologize. BUt I'd get out of there before it becomes the most lucrative career option for girl jr. ?

A) I have only been to Hooters once in my life. The service was super terrible and I complained and refused to leave a tip (something I have done maybe twice in my life). So that colors my feelings on the topic, however...

  Unless your husband, partner, significant other is slapping the asses of the staff and making lewd comments, I don't really see what the big deal is.

The hell you say...come on what better way to celebrate good ole' fashion american fun then looking at women is shorts and tight tops. That is unamerican.....oh yeah that's right, you're Canadian....:)

I think a lot of places are deemed "Family" restaurants.  IMHO anyplace that allows smoking shouldn't be considered a family restaurant.

But KIDS EAT FREE on Saturdays.  Heeeheee.

A year and a half ago (when I lived there), IHOP and most other diners in AZ were smoking except for during Sunday breakfast.  It depends on the area you're in so that's a hard rule to go by.

This. Every restaurant around here has smoking, except for The Black Eyed Pea. ?

LOL at "they have a kids' menu"!  Especially for bfing babies.  They have lots of options...

Ba-zing!

But seriously I have no problem with Hooters per se and am glad they have a tuition reimbursement program, 401k plan, and awesome chicken wings.

But it's Hooters.  It is named after boobs.  Women in short shorts and low cut tops are the main point of the restaurant, right?  And that's fine.  Dudes like to look at boobs especially when the person attached to them is bringing them beer and fried foods.  No harm, no foul.

What gets me is that someone put a picture of their son being held by a bunch of Hooters Girls in their siggy on the 6-12 board and then was shocked that it was controversial.  Really?  You couldn't see that one coming?  Then I have another shocker for you: water is wet.

I love the wings but not saying I'd take my kids there....

We have a Tilted Kilt up here. IMO its WAY worse. My sales partner took me there for lunch when they opened and we were like..um....wtf?! The waitresses should NOT have worn what they were wearing...pastey flab. Gross.
