Linger Lodge Restaurant :: Bradenton, Florida
On the west coast of the Sunshine State, nestled in the mangroves with the animals it serves, is the Linger Lodge Restaurant. Probably the most bizarre eatery in the United States; Linger Lodge Restaurant in Bradenton, Florida was originally just a woodsy camp site perched on the Braden River. Voted one of the top 10 most unusual restaurants in the world by Forbes Magazine in 2007, Linger Lodge offers up both typical down home southern fare along with their “Road Kill Menu” featuring such items as Guess that Mess, Swirl of Squirrel, Chunk of Skunk, and Bat Cocktail. The ambiance is just as kitschy. See a cryptozoologist’s dream as you walk past the displays of the Blub-Billed Orthlock, the Jackalope, and the Turkey Rattler. Truly delicious food at reasonable prices with sweet southern hospitality, you just can’t go wrong.
