Hooters to close Metro Center location on April 19 after 13 years

🦉 After 13 years of cold beer, saucy wings, and orange shorts, the Hooters at Metro Center in Phoenix is calling last round. The location will close permanently on April 19.

Franchise operator ROA Hooters cites a combination of rising food and labor costs, broader economic headwinds, and an uptick in transient activity around Metro Center as the driving factors behind the decision.

For Valley residents, that means Hooters’ sole remaining Phoenix-area outpost will be the Mesa location, so adjust your wing night plans accordingly.

The Metro Center team is inviting longtime regulars and former staff to come in for one last visit before the doors close for good.
