Enjoyed a wonderful lunch @ Linger Lodge Restaurant although they were busy and understaffed but the experience was great! Highly recommend! #oldflorida #lingerlodge #cheers

family went there .we were a larger party with kids. long story short . we were not welcome. wait staff was short. bad attitude. kids were not misbehaved. the restaurant was not busy. but it's obvious it's not kid friendly. cool looking place but we won't return

This place looks awesome outside and inside unfortunately that doesn’t make a good restaurant. We “6 adults and 5 kids” arrived between 1-2pm on a Saturday and it was pretty much empty. They were clearly aggravated that we showed up without making reservations “once again there was basically nobody there” Food was subpar and servers seemed unhappy.

Worst service ever rude very rude

What a uniquely Old Florida restaurant! The history and the location are fantastic. The food is very good and the menu is large, including an entire “bbq smoker” menu. The decor is perfect, fitting the nature of the location!

Because of a birthday & consecutive visitors we went out to eat several times in an 8 day span. I had the same meal at 3 different restaurants, Linger was by far the best. Simple as that.

We popped in here for a quick bite on a Sunday. Quite a wide food selection, including smoked food and some southern favorite dishes.

Gator burger was pretty darn tasty. French fries sat a bit long prior to being served but still good.

Haven’t been in a long time and while still mostly the same as the old days, feels cleaner and more open. Server was friendly and helpful, had small gaps in service when we were looking for her.

Went later on a Wednesday night so it was a little slower, which we liked, and had $1 wings, a smoked pork stuffed baked potato and beer and wine. The wings were good size and cooked close to perfect, but lacking sauce. They brought extra sauce later. Post said they have 10 sauces, server did they have the four on the menu and some BBQ sauces. Tried the habanero bbq and the hot buffalo sauce and they were good enough.

The stuffed baked potato was done well and had good taste and consistency as well as a blend of ingredients.

We will return to try other items that peaked out interest.

Kid-friendliness: Have the fun hybrid taxidermy animals that kids enjoy and family friendly atmosphere.
