Description

Linger’s globally-inspired, street-food menu is influenced by makeshift kitchens and streetside nooks from around the world. Housed in the former Olinger mortuary, the decor layers macabre remnants of the history of the building, with posh vintage details in a window-flanked space overlooking the Lower Highlands neighborhood. Featuring one of Denver’s largest rooftop patios, outfitted with a 1975 GMC “Bar-V” and a repurposed food truck, Linger is one of Denver’s signature destination dining and gathering spaces.
