The world's biggest Hooters has opened its doors right here in Liverpool, and the owner and staff are determined to thwart preconceived notions about the company.
Hooters is a legendary - and controversial - American brand founded in the 80s. Its mantra, 'Hooters makes you happy', extends to a hearty food menu, extensive drinks options, and beautiful, attentive staff sporting arguably one of the most infamous uniforms in the entire hospitality industry.
For Rachael Moss, director and owner of Hooters Liverpool, the restaurant's launch in her home city has been a decades long ambition. The mum-of-three, a barrister, first stepped foot in a Hooters in 2002 and was instantly "obsessed" with the concept.
