Another Hooters closes after 31 years, only two remain in Colorado

After more than 31 years of wings, cold beer and game-day crowds, the Hooters at 2610 S. Parker Road will close for good. Its last day is Sunday, Nov. 15. Hooters Colorado announced the closure in a farewell post: “31 years. Countless friendships. Endless memories.” The post invites guests to “come join us for one last toast. One more memory.”

The Parker Road spot opened June 30, 1995. That’s back when the Avalanche were brand new in town, the Broncos hadn’t won a Super Bowl yet and a “smartphone” was just a phone you were proud of. It has served three decades of birthday dinners, fantasy football drafts and Sunday afternoons in orange and blue. Hooters Colorado blamed stiff competition, inflation and rising costs. It also said the closure has nothing to do with the bankruptcy at Hooters’ corporate parent. The local franchise owner, Restaurants of America, calls itself independent and financially stable.

This is the second Colorado Hooters to close in about a year and a half. The Lone Tree location closed in July 2025, and now Parker Road follows. That leaves only Westminster and Loveland. Northern Colorado and the northwest metro get to keep their wings, while the south and east metro will need a longer drive.

There’s some good news for the crew. Hooters Colorado says staff in good standing who stay through the closure can apply at its other locations and restaurants and keep their same positions.
