Can/will strip clubs reopen as Brestaurants?

I see that Onyx in Houston is trying just that. I'm not interested in that type of operation. I haven't been to a Hooter's type place in over 30 years and have no interest in going now. If I want food I go to a real restaurant.
Follies building was originally built as a restaurant and has a fully functional kitchen. Prior to the COVID shutdown the city of Chamblee even required them to bake little pieces of cake to meet the cities regulations. So they have the equipment and experience to operate as a Breastaurant but I have no interest in driving that far for food and masks.

Topless or nude servers, lapdances while waiting for the entry and a nice post-meal BJ for dessert.
That said, I also have zero interest in Hooters type establishments. Food usually sucks and the girls don’t, at least inside the restaurant....:))
Is this Onyx going to have a VIP room ?
When I was working, Hooters used to be a lunch spot for a couple of the other guys an me if we were close to the area of one. We certainly didn't go out of the way. It was kind of fun as the waitresses began to know us. Food, so-so at best.
Come to think of it that was about 20 years ago.
@Wallanon-- why would a stripper lose her cool at the mention of Twin Peaks-- is this a reference to the biker shoot out at a Twin Peak in Texas?
Once Covid off the field the SC will come back. They may be in new buildings / locations..
Houston is to strip clubbing like Vail to ski. As long as there is a demand for SC they will come back.
In 2013 I found Cover Girls (NW Houston) was 2 mi down road from my new work and a great place to wait out the traffic. A brand new club with beautiful upstairs vip rooms. They looked like glass wall meeting rooms but not allowed upstairs. The original had been struck by lightning and burned down. The club was one of 16 clubs that made a deal with the city to curb certain activity in vip areas hence the upstairs off limits. The other clubs forced to demo private vip areas. The private areas in Ritz in CR area gone. Upstairs Ritz more open area. At CG There was a huge vip downstairs but open area type no privacy and monitored by mgt - $30 pay as you go. Cover charge $5, beer and wine $3, super cafeteria buffet w great food. Lots of beautiful girls many who played otc. An exciting time for me super place relax, wait out traffic - lap dances $20. So this is an example of what a post Covid club would look like. At that time getting a stripper otc in city no prob $200-$300.

The one Shadow talked about might be a special case since they had the right kind of facility and were operating as both at some level...
It was a quick visit. Our waitress was bitchy, food was bad. But my friends were cool to hang out with. I remember they wanted to charge a ton of money just to announce his name for having a birthday. Have never been back to a Hooter as I've always found better options.
My other experience when brought up, guys were all for it, but didn't want to go to Hooters either (even before I mentioned anything about Hooters).
Fast forward maybe 18 years from previous experience (about 20 years ago). Went with a different group of friends to Tilted Kilt for a birthday celebration. Much better experience. Knew more or less what to expect. Some of our mutual friends were married and they wanted to hang out with the guys, but not at a strip club as their wives would be with them. Geez. Well anyway, our birthday friend was single and met us there. Waitress was unbelievably hot. We asked her for a picture with our friend (birthday guy) when he arrived. She said yes and she'd get her waitress friend for the picture too. She did. Our friend had a great birthday. Food was good too. Would return if same kind of circumstance (same group of friends). Wouldn't go by myself or just with one friend. Would rather go to a strip club. Funny thing is the birthday guy has gone to a strip club with me several times since. Other guys haven't (even though invited anytime)-and the other guys were my former roommates from back in the day that introduced me to strip clubs!
