Not to sound like our parents, but as much as we enjoy today’s music, there’s nothing like grooving along to the iconic tunes of the past few decades. And if ’70s music is more your vibe, dust off your dancing shoes and bring out those flared pants from the back of your closet because we’ve got the perfect plans!
With plenty of funky music, bulky TVs, wood-paneled walls and a Saturday Night Fever-esque dance floor, Delray Beach’s Good Night John Boy is the ultimate dose of nostalgia. Named after the classic phrase heard on “The Waltons,” the groovy disco club comes from the team behind Wynwood’s Shiso, Forward Hospitality Group, and describes itself as “Studio 54 meets your grandparent’s funky 1970’s basement.”
Capturing the essence of disco’s golden age, be sure to break out your best dance moves under the glittering disco ball to the sounds of ABBA and the Bee Gees — along with some modern songs.
The menu and music find perfect harmony, with fun cocktails inspired by the decade like the Dirty Ashtray (a Miller High Life loaded with Tapatio, lime, salt & pepper), Mood Ring (Bacardi Rum-based dragonberry limeade) and the Disco Punch (rum punch served in a take-home disco ball). They also serve up pizza and burgers along with fries, if you work up an appetite after all that boogie-ing.
You can find Good Night John Boy at the former Delray Beach Market, 33 SE 3rd Ave, Delray Beach, FL 33483. This is the nightclub’s second Florida location, with the first being in St. Pete. Find more on their website here.
