Cowboy-themed tavern with ranch decor, patio & popular brunch
"Linda’s isn’t exactly a dive bar, but it’s also not where you bring your country club friends who wear plaid golf pants. It’s the perfect spot for everything from a shot-and-beer combo to a lovely local cider to boozy slushies made with Mountain Dew. There’s a big back patio, taxidermy, arcade machines, jukebox tunes that don’t stop, and a fun crowd at all times." - aimee rizzo
"Like the bar in Cheers, except with a better patio. A place for meeting friends, classic tavern food, a killer brunch, and lots of kitschy cowboy decor, it’s a great place to start and end a night out." - Hum Creative
"Opened back when Capitol Hill wasn’t quite the high-priced playground it is today, Linda’s leans into a cowboy theme by way of David Lynch with decor like a giant buffalo head next to a portrait of Laura Palmer from Twin Peaks. While the food is mediocre, the bloody marys are strong, the back patio is buzzing during the summer, and the music is always great. Big Buck Hunter, solving Laura’s murder" - kayla sager riley, aimee rizzo, gabe guarente
"If you go to this Western bar for some day-drinking-turning-maybe-to-night-drinking and decide you’d actually like to just have dinner rather than schlep around Capitol Hill, you’re in luck: From 4 to 6 p.m. every day there’s a lineup of $10 food including chicken strips and fries, a cheeseburger and fries, and nachos. It’s basically a kid’s menu, sure, but after a few $10 PBR pitchers you’ll feel like a kid." - Harry Cheadle
"Considering that by night, the back patio at Linda’s is packed with loud people drinking alcoholic Mountain Dew slushies and yelling across the bar, it’s hard to believe that by day, the outdoor space is pretty serene. If having some brunch and getting a low-key sunburn while simultaneously drinking Rainier tallboys sounds like a good time, Linda’s will feel like home." - aimee rizzo
