This is the place to go for hamburgers and live music. At the corner of Atlantic Ave and the train tracks with no cover charge. Had a tiki hut feel and a small menu. Big burger with a soft bun with a mountain of French fries covered with Parmesan cheese but the fries were a little soggy. Had the hummus and vegetable appetizer and it was very fresh. My daughter and hubby had onion rings that were very big and crispy. The food was ready quick and waiter was always nearby. Prices very middy range for a tourist area. Good value, good music, great burgers.

Stopped by Johnnie Brown's in Delray Beach on a Sunday afternoon after lunch. They had a band performing, which made for a fun vibe. My friend and I snagged a couple of chairs at the small bar to keep catching up. The crowd was mostly seasoned in age folks just enjoying themselves, which surprisingly added to the atmosphere. One lady was trying to flirt with my friend, which was bold considering most would have thought we were a couple. All in fun or liquid courage, I wonder. Service was a bit of a miss -- the bartender was hella cool but struggled with the frozen drinks, and mine came less than half frozen. After that, we stuck with bottles of beer. We stayed over an hour, mainly to enjoy the band; otherwise, it's an okay spot. Open-air setup makes it easy to walk in and enjoy, though.

Entrance

Hi we came because we love this place and we got to the entrance and ask one of the security guys if there are tables for 2 and Mike the other security guard yelled at us to move out of the way because we blocking the entrance mean while no one else was trying to go in We were just asking if there's any seating like we are not allow to ask This was on 12/17/25 at around 7:45pm He was really rude

Quick service, good music, good wings, and a beer bucket. You seat yourself. They have a good happy hour. Very laid back environment with live music everyday. Get the 5$ train shot!

Cheese burger and garlic parm fries
Ellie W.

Johnnie Brown's is defintely the typical bar atmosphere and food. I got a cheeseburger and garlic parm fries. The burger was juicy and pretty good but it was lacking cheese I don't know if they just use thin slices but if I were to go back I'd ask for extra cheese. The garlic parm fries were really good and my husband was stealing them off my plate. I'd defintely come back here if I wanted a safe bet on food and not trying to venture out. The service was a little rough constantly trying to grab our waiters attention because the music was so loud which is something they're known for. Other than that it was average. 3/5 food 2.5/5 service

Delia R.

Such a great place to relax, enjoy some tunes, and people-watch. I've been here several times throughout the day, and it never fails to deliver a good time. The beer selection on tap is always solid with lots of choices. I haven't tried the food myself, but everyone raves about it, and the dishes always look amazing. Dogs are welcome, so feel free to bring your furry friend for some people-watching. Just a heads up, smoking is allowed here, so it might not be ideal if you're sensitive to it.

Baja chicken sandwich
Robert S.

Was walking around Atlantic Ave in Delray and decided to stop hear for lunch. While place is open sir and honestly really has no ambience, but maybe the lack of it is the ambience. Anyway, service was great. My wife had a Cobb salad that she said was great. I had the Baja Chicken ( grilled breast ) sandwich served with fries and it was very good.

Randi P.

Love this place! Great atmosphere! Amazing food! Superb service! Loved the presentation of the food! We were eying the GIANT nacho platter but it was too big for two people so we didn't get them.

Hours that they are open on Yelp.
Mike C.

They never opened for lunch yesterday. If they changed the hours of operation, they should update Yelp.

House made hummus

Excellent beach bar... Bartenders are awesome! Live music and great food! I was looking forward to Tuna Poke Bowl but was told it was being removed from the menu

Tatiana C.

This review is highly for the food because we were kind of scared/ didn't think the food would be good but we were surprised!! My dad got the classic burger and i got the good old smokey. Though they were not on the desired temperature they were still juicy. Fries fresh and bun Server always checking if we were ok and drinks were brought promptly. Environment as always so fun and entertaining!!

Menu
Joe G.

Great location but overpriced. And if you try to redeem the Free Beer offer from Yelp be prepared for the staff to laugh and not honor it. Again, cool location, but $7.00 for a Yuenling Draft is excessive even for Delray.

Stan F.

AMAZING PLACE! Such a good atmosphere and an amazing place to go to right after a day at the beach in Delray. I love watching the shows and watching folks dance. They have Elvis on Mondays and it's such an amazing vibe. I loooove the wings here soooo delicoous oh my goodness. Amazing service even when it's busy.

I don't think I need to explain. Just clean it up.

This past Sunday, June 14th, we spent the day at Throw Social celebrating both an 18th birthday and…read morea 48th birthday with a large group of family and friends. We reserved two cabanas, and from start to finish, the experience was fantastic. The staff was incredibly accommodating and attentive throughout the day, making sure our group had everything we needed. Despite the size of our party, service remained friendly and efficient. A special shout-out to the first DJ of the day, who absolutely set the tone for the event. The music selection was excellent, with a great mix that appealed to both the younger crowd and the adults. He kept the energy up without it being overwhelming and created a fun, upbeat atmosphere that everyone enjoyed. The venue offered a great balance of entertainment, food, drinks, and social space, making it a perfect location for a celebration with guests of all ages. We had an amazing time and would definitely consider returning for future events.

Live music was amazing. Food was average. Bartenders were amazing (Brett and Macie I believe)…read more Brett even found me outside to deliver my food, nice little touch. Good and fun night. I'll be back

We joined some friends for dinner tonight at this newer Asian restaurant on Atlantic Ave…read more We started with an assortment of fun named drinks. Kinky Kitty, Match Piña Colada, & Bump and Grind. All were delicious as my friends all tried tasting each one. We followed with apps. Chinese Sticky Ribs, Bang Bang Shrimp Korean Short Rib Gyoza, Shrimp and Scallop Shumai, and Wild Mushroom dumplings. Each one was as good as the next and would have had twice as much if I wasn't ordering an entree. For our entrees we went with Drunken Noodles and Shrimp, Crispy Rice Tuna Crab Fried Rice and two Rolls Spicy Salmon and Hamachi Yuzu. Luis, was our server and made some great suggestions to our table that we all went with. Always kept our water glasses full and smile on his face. The flavors, textures, colors and did I mention flavor was amazing! Congrats to the Chef on a wonderful diverse Asian menu.

Roka Hula has such a cool design and amazing decoration--the vibe inside is unmatched. But for me,…read morethe absolute highlight of the night was the drink menu. There are so many incredible options to choose from, and the Freaky Frank ‍ was absolutely amazing and perfectly crafted. The other massive highlight of the meal was the dessert. We ordered the Vietnamese Coffee Affogato, and the presentation was really special. The server pours the fresh espresso over dry ice right at the table, creating this smoke the pours off the glass. It was such a cool touch. The only reason I am knocking off a star is that the chicken skewers were unfortunately just not really good. Aside from that, it was an otherwise amazing meal with great service. I can't wait to come back and try more of the drink menu!
