Cooters Restaurant & Bar

Cooters Restaurant & Bar, colloquially known as Cooters, is an all-you-can-eat restaurant owned by Milton Shake. It is the main setting of "DrillGirl Saves Santa Claus!" and it is based on the real location of the same name.
== Overview ==
The establishment is owned by Milton Shake and founded an untold amount of years ago. For him, it is a side-gig next to his work of being an internet safety communicator. It is known for and branded by imagery of turtles and crabs, with the former being the restaurant's mascot and the latter being the prime (and only) staple of the menu. It has only one other known non-cook employee, the Cooters Waitress, a woman with a sultry voice and attractive physique whose face is never shown on-screen. While very favored by the protagonists Raven, Dark Shi and Berrycream Frosting, the establishment has not received good business for a while. Its owner Milton Shake considered shutting down the restaurant altogether come Christmas Day (December 24). To help save the restaurant from going bankrupt, Raven and her friends pledge to collect enough money to keep it going. Milton Shake agrees to the proposition and lets the girls go forward with their plan. 
Raven decides to collect money by calling for voluntary donations in the boardwalk nearby, which turns out successful. Dark Shi joins an ice sculpting competition and takes first place, winning a cash reward for it. Berrycream robs the local bank and escapes in a fake U-Haul truck, with Omen as her getaway driver. They managed to collect $357,000 which was sadly not enough (Milton Shake tells the girls they are "a few zeros off"). A Christmas miracle would happen, but not in the expected manner. Chupachups arrives shortly after the gang counts their money, to grant them a Christmas wish. While Raven and co. expected him to wish for Cooters to be saved, he instead wished that "everyone's passwords were secure and different for every website they use", since he doesn't find Cooters to be as important as internet safety. 
Surprising everyone, a crowd of people gathered at the Cooters restaurant to enjoy a meal there one last time. The money the customers paid that night ensured that the restaurant would remain for the next month or two, and that his debt with Michaelsoft would be repaid. While the end of the episode implies that Cooters eventually closed down, a food truck for the restaurant is later seen in "What the Heck Happened to you, Berrycream?".
== Menu ==
While a variety of seafood and meat-based meals exist at the restaurant — some even based on real meals at the real restaurant — the only meals seen on-screen are the Christmas Crab Legs and the Cooter Jr. Regardless, the Cooters Waitress provides a short list of the offerings at the restaurant as follows:
* Light and Breaded Cooter Wings
* Cooters Super Grouper Sandwich
* Cheesy Cooters Quesadillas
* Cooters Chicken Alfredo
* Cooters Shake
* Cooters Key Lime Pie
* Cooters New York Strip
* Big Cooters Mac
* Chicken Caesar Cooters Salad
* Cooters Christmas Crab Legs
* Cooter Jr.

* Milton Shake (owner)
* Cooters Waitress
== Trivia ==
* The namesake restaurant was located in Clearwater Beach, Florida in the southwestern United States, and is permanently closed as of March 29, 2022. While the location where Sparkle On, Raven: The Life of DrillGirl takes place is never mentioned, this would seemingly place the series within Clearwater, Florida.
** On one hand, this would justify the comically confusing climate, as Florida is a sub-tropical state and Clearwater specifically is a coastal town. On the other hand, the phone number seen on the exterior of the building does not align with the real Cooters' phone number (it uses a 785 area code, which corresponds to Kansas in the midwestern United States), and there are a number of other discrepancies with the series' location that would go against this idea, such as the more prominent integration of Japanese culture.
