Linger Lodge is a restaurant I have been to many times and I will go back again and again! The restaurant if located directly on the Bradenton River and has wonderful view. The covered outdoor decks are perfect for the summer days free of bugs. Inside the restaurant is done in taxidermy. Someone I was with got the hush puppies which were the best ...

What a unique place! It's old Florida. The food was wonderful and very well priced. The service was great. It's alittle hard to find. The GPS has to have 85th st ct east added to the address. Once you get there you will enjoy everything about Linger Lodge.

This place will send you back about 50 years to Old Florida. Much like the old Fish Camps, this place reeks of the 1950's. Try it just for fun -- not for your wedding anniversary -- and you won't be disappointed.

The view is gorgeous, the river so peaceful. But the food and service is terrible. Ordered appetizer that never showed up; good placed on table cold. menu has been reduced significantly, many previous dinners, seafood, fish no longer on menu. Service was slow and inept. Had to ask for iced tea refill twice.

What has happened to this treasure of the past? Will not take visitors there, ever again. Very sad.

Having been born and raised in Sarasota I remember Linger Lodge when it used to be just a pavilion and a bar-b-que pit. When we moved into Bradenwoods Subdivision in 1983 we became regulars at Linger Lodge. We would eat there 2 to 3 times a month. The River Platter and Riverbottom Pie along with Franks stories and character keep the place a ...

We just returned from a very nice dinner at Linger Lodge. After reading the previous reviews, we were expecting the worst! There were 6 of us. The service was great...someone came immediately and checked back with us frequently through the time we were there. Everyone's food was very good. The prices were excellent....drinks were half ...

We moved to the Braden River 5 years ago and started going to Linger Lodge a couple of times a week. The food and service were very good at the time. We took all our visitng friends there as well...either by car or by boat. Going by boat is a wonderful experience..such a beautiful river and so many things to see along the way. Since it has ...
