Johnny Rockets Franchise

1940s-style hamburger malt shop

Johnny Rockets was founded on the belief that everyone deserves a place where they can escape today's complicated world and experience the food, fun and friendliness reminiscent of feel-good Americana. On June 6, 1986, the first Johnny Rockets opened on trendy Melrose Avenue in Los Angeles, offering its Guests fast, friendly service, a simple menu, great food and fun.

Every Johnny Rockets restaurant boasts great-tasting food from a menu of all-American favorites including juicy hamburgers, hand-dipped shakes and malts and freshly-baked apple pie. Guests also enjoy an all-American diner look and feel, servers who know the secret behind getting ketchup out of the bottle, tabletop jukeboxes that belt out tunes for a nickel and authentic décor.

Johnny Rockets is the place where every Guest can enjoy all-American favorites served with a smile!
