Studio tours and live events aside, a man (or a woman) has got to eat and eat heartily on vacation. What are some of the best locations in Burbank to eat, drink and be merry like only show biz folk can?

If you like Italian food then check out the “Market City Caffe” on Palm Avenue. This restaurant, found at the corner of San Fernando, has ample parking and serves Italian food. It is right in the middle of the downtown area. There is a full bar here as well as interior and exterior seating. Some diners can sit under a grape arbor.

If you love fresh produce then don’t miss the Weekly Farmers’ Market event, every Saturday. You can find freshly picked fruits and vegetables at the market, which is located on 3rd Street and Orange Grove. If you want a meatier course, then check out Bob's Big Boy on Riverside Drive. This diner dates back to the 1950s and still serves the classic original double deck hamburger. Celebrity sightings are reportedly common at Bob’s Big Boy.

The Castaway offers scenic views around the Harvard Road area. This restaurant offers open fire pits, high ceilings, a gazebo area for events and a delicious menu. Daphne’s Greek Café on Victory Place offers Greek food including gyros and pita burgers and catered meals. There is plenty to do and see in Burbank, but don’t forget to enjoy your downtime with a delicious meal.

What if you’re looking for drinks and Hollywood-style nightlife? Keep away from the studios, as nobody likes to think of work on a night off. Some popular nightclubs in Burbank include the Eye Candy Nightclub, the Comedy Clinic and Tony’s Darts Away.

Whether you prefer Italian, American or old fashioned hamburgers, there is plenty to munch in Burbank.
