In general I have had a fairly positive impression of Hooters<\/i>. The chain kind of epitomizes the Breastraunt<\/i> class of chains, is open late, has good scenery and a decent burger. I did feel the Two Notch Store<\/a> had gone downhill some the last few times I went there. The chain itself filed Chapter 11<\/a> in March with the original plan being to reorganize without closing stores. That didn't work, and apparently now they are moving to a franchaise model with the original founders involved somehow.<\/p>\n

Anyway, I don't believe I ever visited this store, which moved here from Broad River Road<\/a> (which I don't recall visiting either), though I have eaten at the neighboring Applebees<\/i>, where the view isn't as good, but the burgers are a bit cheaper.<\/p>\n

(Hat tips to commenters Larry & MJ)<\/p>\n

UPDATE 15 June 2025<\/b>: Folks in the comments have pointed out that this locathion, like the Two Notch<\/a> one started out as a Hops<\/i> brewpub, so I have added that to the post title.<\/p>\n
