Have you ever eaten in a restaurant whose name made you laugh so hard you almost choked? Thinking about it, it’s probably not the smartest thing to do but could you resist a chuckle while stuffing your face at the places with the world’s funniest restaurant names.
Funniest Restaurant Names to Tickle Your Belly
Frying Nemo
This is an outstanding movie-related pun name. To be for, the little fellow with the fins looked absolutely delicious. It appears that Disney tried to get this place closed down, although as far as I can tell it is still going strong in Darwin, Australia.
Thai Me Up
If you are planning on opening a restaurant with an amusing name then could I humbly suggest learning the gentle intricacies and subtle flavors of Thai food? Sure, you might be more comfortable with plain old burgers and soups but the punning possibilities of Thai are far wider and more inviting. Plus, you get to burn the taste buds right off people’s tongues by lying about how hot it is.
Thairanosaurus
I did say that Thai restaurants offer top notch punning opportunities, didn’t I? This one offers ahem “food with bite”. It probably seemed like a really good idea to name it like this at the time. However, can you imagine working in a place like this for year after year? I’m guessing that you would get really fed up with that name.
Wok This Way
The word wok has been cleverly used in this funny restaurant name, converting it instantly into the kind of eatery where you can imagine everyone wearing Adidas sneakers with no laces and ageing rock guitarists smashing through the wall with their guitars. I actually just listened to Walk This Way after seeing this place and was shocked by how downright dirty it is. I am very easily shocked these days, it seems.
Herpes Pizza
Would you like extra cheese on your pizza, sir? What about one of our stuffed crusts that let you bite into a burning ring of molten cheese? What about a commonly transmitted sexual disease? I have no idea why they give the restaurant this name and if I’m being honest I would rather just try and forget about it before it puts me off pizza forever. Hah, who am I trying to kid? You could call it Slimy Big Crappy Saliva Pizza and I’ll still be tempted.
The Codfather
How could you keep a straight face while eating in a place with a funny name like this? As long as I didn’t open up my take away and find a blooming horse’s head in it I would be happy. The sign gives no indication on the restaurant’s policy on frying loveable cartoon characters but I think we can all guess what those cheeky Mafia chaps would do if they got their hands on Nemo.
Lord of the Fries
This is a great and rather funny restaurant name but it brings back some horrible memories for me. You see, I was forced to read the rather boring book of the same name while at school. My teacher – who somehow got and held onto a teaching job despite hating kids and having no teaching skills whatsoever – tortured us with drivel for about a year. Still. I’ll have an extra big bag of fries since you’re asking.
