I came here when it used to be The old tin roof so we decided to check it out under the new ownership. Ambience is pretty cool with a 70s vibe, disco ball and disco flooring. Lots of bright lights in the music was pretty good, but they didn't play a lot of new stuff. We saw lots of large groups and bridal parties here who bought some tables around the dance floor. There was a whole upstairs area that was not being used when we went around 9:30 PM . Very cute decor. They also have a photo booth in there that's about $10 to us... read more

We love being a go-to spot for groups and celebrations. We appreciate your feedback about seating and the upstairs area, and we’re always looking for ways to improve the guest experience. Hope you’ll come back soon to try the food and keep the good times rolling!

The most groovy, disco bar ever!! PJ the owner had done an amazing job! Great food, organic ingredients, djs are great. He booked Anderson Paak aka dj pee wee for wonder fest weekend and it was a sold out night! So so so much fun!! The dance floor I lights up, and there's like 3 or 4 bars you can order drinks at! It's two levels too!! Will def come back & bring all my out of town friends!
Business response:
Thank you for the love! We’re so glad you had a blast at Good Night John Boy! PJ and the entire team put their heart into creating that ultimate disco dream, and having DJ Pee Wee (Anderson .Paak!) for Wonder Fest weekend was next-level. From the lit-up dance floor to the multi-level vibes and fresh, flavorful food—we can’t wait to welcome you and your out-of-town crew back for another unforgettable night!

Alexa is the best host for bottle service ! Super friendly, fun, professional, attentive and on top of it . She catered to our every need and made the birthday celebration so special for my boyfriends mom. She made the night here worth it ! And the trainee Brenda was super sweet and Alexa was the perfect person to bring her around . We will def be back if you can request any of the bottle girls request Alexa she's the best and also a bombshell

It means the world to us that your boyfriend’s mom had such a special birthday. We can’t wait to welcome you back, and we couldn’t agree more—Alexa is an absolute bombshell inside and out!
Our experience was fun! I think we came on a day where it wasnt too crowded thankfully; so we had a great time. Very fun concept, well decorated and we even enjoyed our adult happy meal, which was surprisingly tasty. The concept is clever. It made me want to bring my mom who is an OG disco lover and dancer. The problem was the music was repeating the same old songs over and over and missed so many upbeat fun danceable disco ones. They played a lot of boring 80's slow happy songs that nobody knew how to dance to for too long,... read more

Sorry to hear you had trouble booking for your birthday—we ... read more
I have now been here twice for dancing and drinks on two weekend nights and have loved both times!! The vibes here are amazing!! It's the kinda place that you can dance at and enjoy yourself even if there aren't a ton of people on the dance floor. The dance floor is super fun and one of a kind considering this place is a little bit more casual compared to a night club. The DJs play good 70s/groovy style music and there's people of all ages, but primary 20s-30s from what I could tell. I did come here around 6PM both saturdays... read more
