A previous reviewer said keep driving in aid of this, this Hooters is no more, it is now a used car dealership.

My friend and I went in there for a quick bite to eat. I had never been in a hooters before. We had one waitress come and greet us and then a second waitress a few minutes later to give us our drinks. The second waitress was very sweet and identified that she just started working there a week ago. Definitely not much to choose from the menu if you are looking for healthy food. Considering it was a Saturday evening around dinner time, it was fairly dead as far as patrons. As we were waiting for our food, someone in the back cranked up the TVs so loud that having a decent conversation wasn’t happening with out a lot of «what did you say». After what seemed like forever we got one of the appetizers we ordered and I had to ask the waitress to see if they can turn volume down. A manager did come over, not apologize for the volume of the tv but to explain why it was so loud. He agreed to lower the volume a smidge. It was a hockey game they put on which no one was watching? After almost an hour we finally got our meals, it wasn’t busy(maybe 10 people in the restaurant in total) and there really was no excuse for the kitchen staff to take almost an hour to make chicken wings and sliders. Chicken wings were dry, it was like eating the turkey dinner in National Lampoons Christmas Vacation. It wasn’t until we were almost done our meal that we were asked if we wanted a refill of drinks. Again I realize the waitress was new so I’ll give her a break on service. Food well how do you screw up deep fried pickles and chicken wings! I would say if you are in the NE area and want to stop for a bite to eat… Keep driving.

Asked for medium rare, got medium steak. Steak had no seasoning on it, so it didn’t taste like anything. I wouldn’t care about any of the above if there were super sexy waitresses, but you couldn’t even provide that !! FORSHAME, even Edmonton is better than you, FRIGGINEDMONTON !!

I don’t care much for the food at hooters, I had a chicken sandwich and it was horrible. The waitress was nice and pretty, and the beer was good and cold.

You know that terrible food at the arena/stadium that you have to eat? ever wanted to have that in a restaurant? if the answer is no then make sure to avoid Hooters because that is what you get.

Ah, Hooters. I wonder why I saved you for my 400th review. Home of lowered expectations, beige food that has been deep fried and stuffed with cheese, and drunk Manitoban ladies that will declare you are clearly batting for the other team if you don’t find them attractive and don’t want to buy them drinks. Here’s the thing, bars. I can’t give you more money if the waitress refuses to do more than one lap around her station and therefore never refills my water, takes another drink order or any order. She did however, come back just as we were prepping to head out, and give us poutine that none of us ordered. Someone at another table must’ve been hungry and sad.

Me and a group of friends come here once every 2 – 3 months for a little get together. The service is always so awesome. And the food is delicious. My all time favorite is the deep fried pickles, so good!!!

I’ve been at this Hooters many times, and it’s not for the outfits. Something about Hooters’ addicting Buffalo Chicken Sandwich brings me back time and time again. Although I don’t appreciate the waitress pulling down and adjusting her top as she’s taking my bf and I’s orders, I keep coming back for that darn sandwich. I like going here because I only have to order one thing and I’m stuffed. You get a huge plate of fries along with a big burger, and I can never finish the fries, sometimes not even the burger. The service is on top of things and usually friendly. I hear their wings are pretty good too. The seating isn’t that comfy — hard stools/chairs, but they have lots of tvs. They are a must-go for Monday Night Football and I’ve won a bbq before to reward my beer drinking in a raffle. They have great give-aways during the NFL season, so once again, go for MNF! They also have some great drink specials. The problem with this Hooters is that it doesn’t attract the best crowd, which is why I’m usually there on Mondays for more of a football crowd and less of a creepy one. If you’re worried about the servers. don’t worry, ladies, you have nothing to be jealous about.

I was in Hooters today with some coworkers for a quick lunch. I had never been to a hooters before but it pretty much was what I expected. When i phoned to make reservations I was asked if it was a special occasion. I told them that one of our coworkers was having a birthday. The manager said«ill get the girls to put up some balloons». Anyhow, we arrived and were seated at our balloon table, we had a few extra people and they kindly added an extra table. Our waitress was pleasant, and she was great, sweet, friendly and without question, beautiful. The menu screams Mancave buffet… all things greasy, fatty and decadent. There is a time and place for this kind of food, and the time is now, the place is Hooters. I got a Caesar salad minus the chicken and it was tasty but highly forgettable. My coworkers got wings, burgers, chicken burgers etc, and all commented on how tasty the food was, a guilty pleasure. We arrived at 1130 and we didnt have food on our table till 1230. Granted, there were 12 of us, but there were people who arrived long after us who were eating long before us. When it came time to settle my bill, the bill was $ 14.15, I gave her a 20 and asked for change. The change I got back was a five dollar bill and 85 cents… without any smaller bills I had to give her a fiver… I didnt really mind as the waitress was nice, but the wait for food was not good, and it kind of ticked me that I had no choice but to tip generously or not at all. I would likely go here again, when I want some greasy good food… I will say that the general tone of this place lent itself well to some raunchy uninhibited conversation which ran the gauntlet from fetishes to stories of ex bf’s and gf’s. All in all, the experience was fun, the wait for food too long, but I would give them another shot in fhe future. One last thing, I asked our waitress if men ever treated the girls here badly and she said«sometimes yah». The feeling I got was that the girls who work there are fully aware that to some degree their looks are exploited, but also smart enough to use them to thier advantage while they can. To that I say, good for them. This kind of hiring exists everywhere whether its a good looking male waiter or an attractive woman, hooters just doesn’t hide, nor make apologies for it.

The food was actually very good surprisingly, we got the chicken wings with breaded mix and salt plus a grilled ham and cheese. 4 pints of Canadian for $ 2.99 each but the place was dead and full of fatties. Maybe they should rename this hooters to fatties because it was dead in there. Mind you it was a Wednesday night!

I“m with Christopher W. on this one. I recently went into this Hooters and it is HURTIN’. I have no problem going to Hooters — they DO have great wings(Not that I eat them, but the company I keep likes them)! Plus after my many experiences at the Hooters on John Street in Toronto, I have been missing the patio and the fun crowd that would always gather there. A trip to this Hooters definitely didn’t help my Hooters fix. There were only older men in the joint and it was pretty deserted overall. It’s safe to say I’ll save my Hooters nights for the T-Dot. It’s just not happening up in here!

This was one of the saddest little Hooters I’ve ever been in. It was quite empty on a Tuesday night(a little odd considering the Flames game was on), filled only with a few lonely old men and a couple of criminal-types coming to pick their girlfriends up after a shift. Not exciting in the least. We had a beer and got the hell out of there. If you’re looking for somewhere quiet to go and pine, this is the place…
