Hooters UK (what does?)
 

Guys,
please help me in my ignorance... looking at stag-do stuff for the coming weekend. Someone suggested we go to hooters (in Nottingham). For my sins, I have no idea what the deal is. They advertise themselves as a restaurant. Do you have to book a table, or just turn up and drink? Are they just full of stag-do types and booked up years in advance?

Ehm call them?

You're welcome.

Re: Hooters UK (what does?)
 

Although I don't live in the UK I'd be shocked if you have to book a table for hooters.

Re: Hooters UK (what does?)
 

If you do go, be careful. That sheriff is shady.

Re: Hooters UK (what does?)
 

Hooters USA is just a low rent restaurant where women in big boobs and skimpy outfits serve you food. There is no real show or striptease or anything. The wings are not overrated.


BUT THEY CLOSED ALL THEIR MASSACHUSETTS LOCATIONS AND MY LUNCH PUNCH CARD WAS ONE PUNCH SHORT OF A FREE LUNCH. DAMN THEM.

It's amazing how much info you can find on Google!

FYP.

As for the wings, they are >mediocre...in the neighborhood of GOOD.

Re: Hooters UK (what does?)
 

I used to work right next to Boston Garden and sometimes for lunch I'd go to Hooters for wings and a beer on Tuesdays. (They have a lunch card where 6 punches equals a free lunch or something, and on Tuesday they punched it twice, so like every fourth or fifth lunch would be free).

Let me tell you, the girls that get the weekday 11am shift are not the ones that make the calendar.

Nights of Celtics games, that place was a zoo and the girls seemed hotter (or I was drunker?)



As for the wings, they weren't great, but they were good and the buffalo chicken sandwich was something I'd crave.

Re: Hooters UK (what does?)
 

their wings suck. girls are very location dependent. vegas hooters by far the worst for girls, but it makes sense in that town as hot waitresses are vegas' calling card.

Typically, the closer you are to a major university, the better the waitresses look. It's not a given, but that's a good rule of thumb.

They are overfried and covered with a sauce that is barely beyond tabasco.

Good wings are moist, hot, and tasty. Hooters barely gets the second one right.

I have not experienced a Hooters wing that wasn't moist. By hot do you mean temp or flavor? If temp, that's just poor service. If flavor, the "3 Mile Island" kicks pretty good. As far as "tasty"...that's relative.

So, when I say "in the neighborhood of GOOD" I simply mean they are better than the ones Domino's sends out with their pizzas, but not the greatest.

Also, when you order Wachussett Blueberry beer, they put blueberries in the bottom of the pint glass. The hallmark of a fine establishment by any measure.

I meant spicy and I don't think they are that spicy. However, I don't think very many wings are spicy probably due to a high tolerance. Every once in awhile, a hole-in-the-wall place sets my mouth on fire, but most chain places from my experience have a muted sense of spicy.

If Hooters had even halfway decent food, I'd be there much more often for sporting events. Instead, the food blows, so I usually hit a nice bar & grill instead. I want to like Hooters, but it's like they don't even try to make their food anything more than fast food quality.

Re: Hooters UK (what does?)
 

Has anybody tried the wings at WOW cafe and wingery? I thought they were good but I hardly ever eat wings so I don't have much to compare them to.

Re: Hooters UK (what does?)
 

Why pick Nottingham of all places?

Actually i retract that statement, Nottingham seems like exactly the sort of place for the UK's only Hooters restaurant.

Americans, how do the UK hooters girls compare to what you would find at the typical US Hooters restaurant?

Link To pics of UK Hooters girls (NSFWish - girls in bikinis..)

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that ours are below par to what you're used to based on the Beach Boys song, 'California Girls'.

I am fan of the hooters logo though. Good use of an owl.

The main difference would be the yellow teeth of the UK hooter girls and of course most of them being just average (like most british women)

Re: Hooters UK (what does?)
 

I've been to that Hooters. It was different than the ones in the U.S. The chicks never came out from behind the bar/counter except to deliver your food. It was stupid.

Re: Hooters UK (what does?)
 

So this board is full of chicken wing snobs as well?

I think the wings are pretty cheap and pretty good. Greasy as hell and I don't like really spicy wings.

Re: Hooters UK (what does?)
 

Hooters is nice diversion. They usually have Sam Adams or something local in addition to the normal crapweiser on tap. My usual order is a buffalo shrimp appetizer with TMI, naked wings with TMI and an order of curly fries. If I am feeling healthy, then substitute a grouper sandwich for the wings. For what it is, Hooters does a decent job. I do agree that the girls can be hit or miss.

I havent been to that one but suspect its at a level of Frankie and Bennys or Old Orleans with more female waitresses none of which I am sure you would book for a normal stag do.

I would say you would be better off going for a decent meal at a normal place then go clubbing and on to whatever lapdancing clubs they have if its breasts you are after.

Or go somewhere decent for a stag do like Dublin or Newcastle if its a UK job.

I just spent 3 weeks at the Hooters in Vegas the food is perfectly fine especially as a early morning snack after a night of booze, did think the wings were overrated but the burgers and curly fries were decent. I do think the girls in there were a decent quality compared to Vegas generally but that was the trouble they were in the main girls and far too young for me.
