A restaurant is being investigated over claims it served a ‘boob-shaped cake’ at a child’s party.

The Bristol branch of American fast-food chain Hooters is said to have presented a 12-year-old boy and his friends with a cake representing naked breasts on which the words ‘Happy 12th Birthday’ were iced.

They were also allegedly given ‘sexualised Hooters merchandise’.

The incident last month has sparked an online petition that accuses the restaurant of breaching its licensing agreement – which bans entertainment inappropriate for children – and calls for its closure.

In just three days, more than 900 people have signed the petition, including comedians Jonathan Ross and David Mitchell. Ross tweeted: ‘When I was young and stupid I’d probably have thought it was fun. Glad I’ve grown up!’

Campaigners behind the petition also claim that on May 11 the restaurant staged a competition in which diners judged waitresses in bikinis while children were present. Hooters has been criticised in the past for requiring its waitresses to wear a ‘uniform’ of hotpants and tight tops. Bristol City Council is investigating the restaurant following several letters of complaint.

Management at the branch refused to comment.
