Hooters is Switching to Delivery in Order to Save Itself In the past few years, the "breastaurant" has seen declining sales as it struggles to bring in millennial customers, with the number of Hooters locations dropping seven percent between 2012 and 2016, per industry reports. "Delivery [solves] the polarizing issue the brand has had." "Many people wouldn't step foot in our restaurants, but they want our product." According to the New York Post, there are currently 96 Hooters restaurants that provide delivery or take-out, up from seven in 2016.
