Hooters

The casual beach-theme establishments feature ‘50s & ’60s jukebox music, sports on television, and a menu that includes seafood, sandwiches, salads and spicy chicken wings. Hooters, system-wide, generates and averages 70% of its sales from food, 5% from merchandise, and 25% from beer and wine. Notably, Hooters does not serve liquor.

Hooters characterizes itself as a neighborhood place, not a family restaurant. Seventy-percent of all customers are male, most between the ages of 25-54. Hooters does not market itself to families, but they do occasionally patronize the restaurants. Hooters is in the best possible service to anyone coming through the door. For this reason, the chain offers a children’s menu.
