- Brown Derby was a chain of restaurants in Los Angeles, California. The first and best known was shaped like a derby hat, an iconic image that became synonymous with the Golden Age of Hollywood. It was opened by Wilson Mizner in 1926. The chain was started by and Herbert K. Somborn (a former husband of film star Gloria Swanson) in the 1920s. The original Brown Derby restaurants had closed or had been converted to other uses by the 1980s, though a Disney-backed Brown Derby national franchising program revived the brand in the 21st century. It is often incorrectly thought that the Brown Derby was a single restaurant, and the Wilshire Boulevard and Hollywood branches are frequently confused. There is a non-related chain of steakhouse restaurants founded in 1941 in Akron, Ohio, and franchised in 1962. This chain was founded by Ted and Gus Girves, and the full name of these restaurants is "Girves Brown Derby". As of 2019, five of the Girves chain are still in business. (en)
- Le Brown Derby est une chaine américaine de restaurants créée en 1926 et implantée à son origine localement à Los Angeles, aux États-Unis. La marque devient emblématique lorsque son premier restaurant, implanté sur Wilshire Boulevard, puis un second, implanté à Hollywood, se transforment en des lieux à la mode, fréquentés par les vedettes de l'âge d'or du cinéma américain. Dans les années 1980 cependant, tous les restaurants originaux de la chaîne disparaissent les uns après les autres, soit par destruction soit par reconversion. Par la suite, la Walt Disney Company tente de relancer la marque à l'échelle nationale par un système de franchises. (fr)
