Don't let the Harleys out front fool you - Johnny's is no back-alley biker's bar. This five-decade-old north Lawrence institution is just as likely to attract post-wedding parties as post-softball parties; come as you are or dress to impress. Johnny's grills up some the biggest and most creative burgers in town - toppings include everything from fried eggs to onion rings to Chipotle cream cheese - and taps into a diverse palette of domestics, imports and microbrews (favorites include Fat Tire, Boulevard and 1554). Though Johnny's has no shortage of colorful happenings, the real craziness happens upstairs at The Up & Under, which is available for private parties.

Pizzas served late (after kitchen hours) on weekends. Breakfast served on Saturdays.

Cajun night is on the first and third Wednesday of every month at 6PM with live bluegrass and cajun music from Billy Spears and the Beer Bellies. The menu features boiled shrimp, crayfish, gumbo, gator bites and other cajun specialties

Every other Monday is blues night with the Brody Buster Band. Tuesdays are Poker Pub nights (free to enter). DJs every Wednesday and Friday night starting at 10 p.m.

Johnny's is a favorite of people who know Lawrence well. Friendly staff with some of the best pizza in town combine for a good rating. If you havent tried it out grab a beer and pizza with some friends just north of the river.

Johnny's is the best. I love going to Johnny's for lunch to meet up with pals and enjoy one of their famous burgers. The service is great; if you are looking for a good vibe, good eats and to have some time to hang out with friends, Johnny's is the place to go. It's just the best.

Johnny's is a great place to go for a good burger and drink. This is the kind of place you go with a great friend, who you can oink out with and eat, snort, laugh, etc. The food is really good, the portions are good, they wait staff leave you alone, it's just a great place for lunch. It's quick, too. This is a special place to go for lunch if you 1) want to be comfortable and want to be able to hear your friend talk and 2) want to fill your gut with good, solid food. This is not a hipster kind of place. This is a solid, great place for lunch.
