1Hooters
From the moment you walk in the door and hear “Hello, welcome to Hooters!” you know you’re in the coolest place in town. Hooters are famous around the world for their chicken – hands down they do it the best. A trip to Hooters wouldn’t be complete without trying their juicy, crispy, boneless chicken strips coated to perfection in one of their seven different sauces. I recommend trying the BBQ sauce version with a side of ranch sauce – absolutely incredible, they melt in your mouth. Hooters Penrith is more than a restaurant – it’s an experience… and one you’ll never forget. Hooters is located 261 Mulgoa Road, Penrith.
