by BJ E. on I often find myself waking up on the couch of a friend in Fishtown. This past weekend, during the historic snowstorm, I once again woke upon that friend's couch feeling a little hungry. After picking someone up, a group of us went to Johnny Brenda's for brunch. It was delicious. We had a group of 6, and while room was tight, they pushed together some tables for us. The food was delicious, the portions were healthy, and the prices were reasonable. The service was speedy and friendly. (Seemed like everyone was wearing snow pants, which was a nice touch considering the day.) Overall, it was a great way to spend Saturday morning... watching the snow come down in buckets, eating good food, with a bunch of great friends. The next blizzard that blows through on a Saturday morning, I suggest you try this place. On any other Saturday, get the Vanilla French Toast.
by Javier Giuliani on So I've been to the Roxy three times- once in college for a senior week event, and then back twice since that time for concerts. My first visit (and the only time when I did anything which could be even remotely considered dancing) is more or less a blank- the fact that it was senior week and the knowledge that I would be dancing combined to make for a particularly hazy evening. But as best as I can recall, a good time was had. My second visit took place about six months ago when I went to see The National perform. Having just seen them play a show last summer at the Middle East and having never seen a concert at the Roxy, my assumption was that it would pale in comparison. How could some cheesy dance club compete with the Middle East? Well, you know what they say about when you assume things. I'm not sure what I was expecting, but the sound was MUCH better than I anticipated, and far better than the sound had been when I caught them the first time around. The setup of the place also lent itself really well to the show, as there was plenty of space for both the crowd who insisted on packing the front, and those who were more comfortable hanging back. While the drinks were a bit pricey for my liking (more in tune with clubbing than a rock show), the ease with which you could get a drink (bars on the right, left, and back) helped to make up for it. The only real negative was the fact that the band was playing on a weekend and had to finish up early because Latin night was starting soon (the absurdity of which was not lost on the lead singer, who made an appropriately snide remark or two). Aside from the necessity to reshuffle its booking priorities, I thought the Roxy acquitted itself fairly well, and when I went back a month later for another show, my favorable impression held up. Chances are I will never frequent this place regularly, as I usually find it best to keep my fairly awkward dancing and surpremely awkward dancing-related facial expressions under wraps, but as a concert venue, I'd definitely go back again. Just not on Latin night.
