Greetings from the Brown Derby in Hollywood


The only location that mattered.

From Retiring Guy's postcard collection

The Brown Derby.  (Old Los Angeles Restaurants, 10/11/2012)
That was the original Brown Derby, which opened on Valentine’s Day of either 1926 or 1929 (accounts differ) and moved one block away in 1937. The other main locations were (1) near Hollywood and Vine, (2) near Wilshire and Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills, and (3) at Los Feliz Boulevard and Hillhurst in the Los Feliz area. There were also a few short-lived ones in other spots. All served mostly American fare in a semi-plush manner with very attentive service.
