    Stopped by Linger for a quick drink and really enjoyed the atmosphere. I was hoping to try the Wagyu skewers, but unfortunately they weren't being served during the time of day I visited. Definitely looking forward to coming back for dinner the next time I'm in town.

    Each trip to Denver we try to drop into Linger. The food is always great and I love the ambiance. This is the first time I've sat next to the opened windows and it felt amazing. Food: 10/10 Ambiance:10/10 Service: 10/10 (Aurora was great) I love the tapas setting and not feeling rushed going through your courses ,and they always do a great job with letting the customer have the experience. Must gets: Bao buns, Wagyu sliders, bison kebab I love tryin new places but if I'm in Denver, Linger is the place we make sure to go to.

    I've been to Linger a few times now, including celebrating both my birthday and a friend's birthday there, and it's always been a great experience. The food has consistently been delicious, and the atmosphere is one of my favorite things about the restaurant. It's a fun spot for a special occasion because it feels a little more elevated while still being relaxed and comfortable. The rooftop views and unique menu make it a place I enjoy bringing people who haven't been before. Every time I've gone, I've had great food and a great experience. They have great service considering how busy they consistently are!Linger has definitely become one of my go-to recommendations for a fun night out in Denver.

    Linger is situated on what used to be a mortuary. Spooky! However, there is nothing spooky about the service, food, and atmosphere here. It's all peachy! The atmosphere is super nice. Especially on a day with the sun out and a slight breeze, make sure to sit by the open windows for a phenomenal experience while looking at the Denver Downtown view. Bonus points if you get their bottomless mimosas! I was impressed with their food. I got a Mongolian BBQ Duck Bao as well as the Maine Lobster Roll. The bao was too salty for me but I typically like my food on the bland side. The lobster roll was great! I have had lobster rolls before with a weak portion of lobster but there was plenty on the one at Linger. The side of potatoes excellently complemented the lobster roll. Kat was our server and she was great with answering all of our questions, checking in on us just the right amount, and being very personable. Thanks, Kat! If you are looking to take someone on a business lunch, a date, or anything like that, I would highly recommend going to Linger!

    "Make Your Own Breakfast"
    Lauryn H.

    TLDR: Elderflower Spritz is light & refreshing. Carrot Cake French toast was to die for. You might be a bit warm if you sit upstairs. Don't order the Chicken Sausage if you're picky. *** Came here on a Saturday visit to Denver around 11am for brunch. I'd recommend making a reservation. Service was spectacular. The hosts were friendly and our server was extremely helpful and made excellent recommendations. We were seated upstairs. It was 100 degrees outside so naturally we were a bit warm up there, but it wasn't unbearable. Casual vibes here - jeans, shorts, tshirts throughout. We ordered Elderflower Spritz's to start. They were absolutely delightful. Light and very refreshing. We also had their seasonal specialty Cashew Queso. It was unlike anything I've ever tasted before. The cashew flavor wasn't overwhelming, it more so added a lovely bit of creaminess to the delicious homemade queso dip. We also shared the Carrot Cake French Toast. I truly have no words for how spectacular this dish was. I'll be fantasizing about it for the rest of my days. Perfectly crispy on the outside, soft, rich, and cakey on the inside - paired with a scoop of some sort of fantastic whipped cream cheese *chefs kiss* Highly recommend getting this to share. If you're bold enough to order it as your entree, be prepared to take a nap shortly afterwards. I also ordered the "Make Your Own Breakfast" with cheddar cheese scrambled eggs and a side of avocado & home fries. It was all amazing. The portion wasn't overbearing but with the 2 appetizers we had - everyone at the table left happy. One thing to note: someone in my party ordered the Chicken Sausage and said they'd definitely get the bacon next time. So if you're picky about your sausage, try the bacon or avocado instead. Overall 10 out of 10 would recommend!!

    Ube Ice Cream

    I can't believe it's been 5 years since I last visited Linger! I love the Edible Beats restaurant family. I'm pretty sure I still have a little money left on a gift card and would love to come back again. The most recent time was for a work dinner. We ordered an assortment of dishes to share. Their cocktails are tasty, though I don't recall which ones I tried. Not a bad seat in the house, either. I'm always a fan of their Devils on Horseback. I enjoyed the Steamed Bao and Sweet Potato Fries more than last time, though YEARS ago my visit was during the pandemic. The Ube Ice Cream was unique - would recommend. Actually, it's crazy to look at my food pictures from both visits and realize I basically ordered the same things. There are lots more options on the menu, which I'll try next time!

    Smashed Wagyu Sliders
    Allie D.

    This was the best meal I've had in a long time. I loved every single thing I ate - my favorites were the sliders, dates and cheese curds. If I had to leave anything it would be the chicken satay (not photographed), but it was very well done. It was also one of my favorite vibes I've had in a restaurant - tastefully moody but inviting. We had reservations (highly recommend) and were seated after about 10 minutes. Our waiter was helpful with the menu but no where near overwhelming.

    I've been here 3 or 4 times, and every time, it does not disappoint! The vibes are on point. I can't wait to check out the rooftop sometime. The staff is always friendly and makes great suggestions. And the food is always fresh and delicious. Linger is a Denver staple!

    I have a bit different opinion about this place now as I dined at this place with my daughter about a week or so ago on a Wednesday and from service to food to ambiance, everything went quite well (to my surprise.) Hence, I must write. We showed up to our 5:30pm reservation. We were immediately seated unlike the last time (at our last dining occasion 6+ months or so ago, despite making a reservation, we had to wait for AT LEAST 10-15 minutes or a bit longer until they had a table for us.) This sure was a nice start. Then our waitress, Lauren (Lo is how she goes by, I believe) was exceptional. Her attentiveness coupled with her quiet and yet eloquent delivery of speech to explain several different menus and her familiarity with them was top notch. She was also able to make great suggestions as to which dish(es) we should get when we stumbled. Some dishes were a bit too salty to my liking and yet overall, they entertained our palates and stomachs. To mention some of them, the presentation of the Crispy Filipino Spring Rolls (2) ($7 from the HH menu) was creative. The long skinny deep-fried spring rolls were unapologetically and perfectly deep-fried with the nicest crispiness. The two sauces that accompanied the rolls added some enhancement to the whole savoring. The Smashed Wagyu Sliders' meat was quite rich. HH price of $8.5 is one-piece price and we ordered two of those. The portion size was decent. Anything that's wagyu can be pricey; I can call $8.5 a decent price. My daughter wanted skewers so we got us the Bison Steak Kushiyaki based on our wonderful waitress' suggestion. The meat was quite tender. Well-seasoned. Now our dessert to conclude our night - and once again, based on our wonderful waitress' suggestion - we went with the Maduros & Crema (roasted plantain, crema de queso mousse, smoked almond & cotija). This truly shocked us as we had never had a dessert quite like this before. Although this takes long to prepare (as our waitress explained), it was worth the wait. $12 (as of early March of 2026) seemed like a fare price for it as the portion size justified it. I think I will dine at Linger again. Although it still isn't my absolute favorites, our last week's dining experience became a reason as to why we should consider Linger as we see fit.

    Denver "Omelette" Sammy
    Lindsey C.

    Well... I used to really love Linger but this last experience was really just ok. For starters, it was extremely hot in the restaurant and incredibly loud even though it wasn't really that busy which just made it uncomfortable. The server was very nice though but the food.... Meh... we went for brunch and my mom had the BLT Biscuit which came out cold, she liked the salad however the plate was so hot it made her salad warm. I had the Denver Omelette Sammy and it was ok. It says it's a crumpet but it was 100% an English muffin and it just wasn't great. There just wasn't much flavor and the home fries were too salty. Maybe it was just a bad day... I'll definitely try again.

    HOT HONEY SWEET FRIES Æ ... Waffle Cut & Mile High Seasoning
    Stephanie B.

    Linger's rooftop atmosphere was great! The food truck was cute--unfortunately, (for me) there were too many people in front to take a photo, but the two guys working it were very friendly. The food we shared: CRISPY CHEESE CURDS: Beer Batter, Shishitos & Jalapeño Jam and HOT HONEY SWEET FRIES Æ: Waffle Cut & Mile High Seasoning was tasty. The drink prices were very high; two of us purchased the rose bubbly, and the pour size was very small f"and cost $16 per drink. My partner had a beer. My drink, plus his beer, plus tip was $30. Yikes! Neither drinks were fancy and a bottle of MCBRIDE SISTERS sparkling rose in a liquor store is $17.99. I know that venues and restaurants upcharge, however, for the pour size...ridiculous. Luckily, the atmosphere outweighed the overly priced drinks.

    Fun rooftop bar that's an eatuary because it's where it was once a mortuary. Great happy hour with many app and cocktail options. We had their old fashioned. Service was kind and the offline app works there as well! Great little part of town

    Final Petal
    Bassey A.

    We had brunch reservations here for a friend's bachelorette and it was a great space to gather with friends. The service was the best, they were so attentive and provided great recommendations for food. I loved my drink, the Final Petal and my friend got the breakfast Dosa which was delicious. Highly recommend if you are Denver.

    Ask the Community - Linger

    How limited is parking? I see they have valet and street parking. I'm trying to decide whether or not to take the light rail. If parking if difficult to grab, I might just take the train. Suggestions, anyone?

    There's a public parking lot across the street we didn't have any issue parking on a weekend evening there. There's also street parking all around the neighborhood.… 

    Is the rooftop with food truck as first available or reservation?

    I have been able to get it as a walk-in, but I'm sure your mileage may vary...

    Does Linger have TVs? Would they be playing the college National championship?

    No tv's! Great spot for good food, drinks and discussion!

    Are dogs allowed on the patio?

    Doubt it since the patio is the rooftop.

    What meal or dish would you recommend?

    We had the Bao bun trio and the devils on horseback, both were delicious

    Are they doing anything for mew years like a roof top party?

    We typically offer a pre-fixed dinner. As long as the weather is great we will have the rooftop open!

    Is brunch everyday, or only on the weekends?

    Brunch is Served Friday- Sunday, from 10:00 am - 2:00 PM. Check out the Bottomless Mimosas!

    Do you have to make reservations for dinner?

    No they are not necessary. However, Reservations are highly recommended.

    Are they still having their regular happy hour 4-5?

    Happy Hour is currently available 4:00- 5:00 pm Monday - Thursday

    Do they have any gluten free options?

    Yes! Their gluten free options are clearly marked on the menu (try the bacon wrapped dates and waffle fries!), just make sure you specify you want the items gluten free.

    Do they allow you to bring your own wine and pay corkage?

    I don't think they are BYOB. Not from what I seen during my visit

    Do they have late night happy hour?

    Yes! :).. Enjoy the view.

    What time are kids allowed until?

    Kids are definitely welcomed there. They have an awesome kids meal that they serve in a bento-box style plate, and they have high chairs.

    Is the patio heated during the winter?

    A part of it, it is. I don't think they are on on really cold days.

    How kid friendly is Linger?

    Not very at all at the bar but maybe downstairs with reservations... but the bar is a bar scene

Location (4 stars) This restaurant is downtown near the convention center. parking is pricy if you valet park at the hotel. Last year it was around $40. Parking in the lot across the street for $25 dollars Easter Sunday. If you use a walker, I would not recommend the parking lot across the street. Food (3 Stars) The Thanksgiving buffet is the best one. I would rate that buffet a (4). The Christmas and Easter buffet are pretty low key. There is a carving station (ham and prime rib). There is an omelet station. Dessert bar is decorative. Cheesecake was delicious. The warming station with potatoes, sausage etc. leaves much to be desired. The charcuterie station is sparse. They offer unlimited mimosas for an additional $25. Service (5 stars) Staff are extremely friendly. Cleanliness (2 stars) My only complaint, I saw a tabletop being cleaned off with a rag used to clean the chairs and then under the table on the floor and on to the next tabletop. I'm just a little picky about that. Especially since folks these days go commando and wear short attire, and you know their parts are on the chair and now spread to tabletops. Wiping up the crumbs off the floor with same rag simply through me over the edge. Atmosphere (4 stars) Spacious uncrowded environment. Nice decor. Bright with large windows.

Death & Co is a bar that has been on my list to go to for a very long time. We made our reservation ahead of time, which I would highly recommend you do. I almost didn't do it, but I'm glad I did because it was limited seating still. The inside atmosphere is absolutely amazing elegant, upscale. This is the place to be. We originally sat at a lower table with a large couch and two side chairs. We had a group of six and we fit pretty comfortably. The only error we had was when the waitress was bending down to give us our first round, someone from the table behind bumped her and the tray of drinks went over. Honestly not really her fault and she was very apologetic. It did splash one of my party members, which is why they offered to comp us the drinks and we had to unfortunately move the table because of broken glass. They were fortunately able to get us into another table pretty quickly. It was close to the bar, which wasn't inherently bad. They gave us a fresh round of drinks. The food that came out was all amazing. We ended the meal with their chocolate chip cookies, which were divine. I'm pretty sure they were brown butter chocolate chip cookies because it had that excellent specific flavor you get from browning butter and baking. All in all, this place truly delivers an amazing experience. The wait staff was able to make amazing recommendations on cocktails based on what people's preferences are. The food was truly amazing. If you like good food and great drinks, I would definitely check this place out.

This is a breakfast place and yet, for coffee, whole milk is the only dairy option offered. For me, if your business is breakfast, I assume coffee is your #1 served drink, to not have options for lattes is an easy miss. Providing skim milk allows you to make your own 2%! It also seems they had one non dairy option which, again, it's a breakfast cafe. I cannot make sense of it. Service was slow and spotty, which was particularly disappointing given the 20% included service fee. This fee notice is posted everywhere which I appreciated but if this is the case, you must must provide top notch service. Waited quite a while once we were finished for our check which is just unacceptable. That said I did love my breakfast bowl full of veggies - one of their summer specials. And I liked the hot sauce wall! Plus I love dogs and really dug the weenie decor. Despite the good food product, this is a restaurant where their policies and lack of options made me feel unwelcome. With all the great food spots in the area, there's nothing that would draw me back to this place as I'd like to have a latte if I'm going out for breakfast, and this place couldn't provide any milk option for me.
