The Brown Derby
The Brown Derby was associated with movie star glamour during the Golden Age of Hollywood. It was the place where people made film deals, discovered newcomers, and went to be seen. At a certain point in time, there were four Brown Derby joints operating in the Los Angeles area. Perhaps you have even heard of the iconic Wilshire Boulevard location with its dome that resembles a huge derby hat. This chain became outdated, and the four locations were nowhere to be found by the mid ‘80s. Luckily, a “Hollywood Brown Derby” remains in business today after it got a licensing deal. You will find it at the Disney’s Hollywood Studios park at the Walt Disney World in Florida.
