Linger Longer Lounge

Was only there while waiting for my appointment next door. It's a nice neighborhood bar/restaurant. Atmosphere was friendly and welcoming and made me comfortable. I didn't have any food but am told it's pure comfort food. If you like the smaller bars like I do, check it out.

Best time ever. I don't drink but I went to hang with my co workers. Had so much fun for a Friday

I didn't have any food myself but my party did and they all liked theirs. We watched live bands play. It was awesome, and everyone had a blast.

Love this spot when I wanna go to a 70s themed bar, really spacious and tons of seating. The only cons about this place is that when it gets really packed the tables, get sticky, and their seats are starting to deteriorate , the leather is peeling badly.

Stumbled upon this little hidden gem. We were not disappointed. Had some some Montucky Cold snacks at perfect temperatures. The vibes were on point they had a set called Neon Navajo and they were playing some great jams ! I would definitely be coming back.

Had such a blast here!! It's cozy, moody, and fun like a friends decked out basement bar. Games galore, cool breeze way outdoor patio, and great music. The food was unexpected and delicious. Wide range of sausage, hot dogs, brats, and all the things that you'd think go with it, or some twists! Meat and cheese boards, special or build your own...fun and yum!

Definitely has that dive bar feel, but is also roomier and more comfortable than a dive. Their food menu was simple but super impressive, too. I would honestly go here just to eat! I came with a Meetup group of people for a party games night and we had a blast - I’d recommend this place to anyone looking for great tasting and different food options or any smaller (10-20) groups of people needing a good, relaxed space for a get together!

I love this place. Stop every time I'm in the area and I haven't had one bad weiner served to me yet

I traditionally don't like hot dogs but this place changes that. I got the in and out and in again. Hot dog with fresh flavors that reminds me of how I dress my burgers. I'm a cider person, so I like that they have more than one on tap. Another hidden gem now found

We've been loving the weekend pop-up food by Requinto, a Guerrero-style Mexican food popup. The offerings seem to change regularly, but have all been winners so far, and the most recent menu is available on instagram. I especially like the posole during the winter, and the various chip snack appetizers (served as snack sized bags of Mexican chips cut open with a variety of toppings). This review is mostly related to our experiences eating delicious Mexican food here, but we do like Linger Longer Lounge for a hole-in-the-wall dive bar atmosphere. It's a great spot for a casual night out or happy hour with friends.

This place has changed.... maybe cause I'm an old man now. But shoot man the music used to be bad ass old school hip hop and we came in tonight and I felt like I was listening to a Star Trek soundtrack (nothing against Star Trek). The drinks on the online menu are no longer in play, bartender dude said for about a year now. Like for real owners? Get that updated. Same with the food. It was just crappy man. We ain't been here in a hot minute but it's like wtf happened bro??

Here to review the recent Lost In Mahalo pop-up by Sugar Cane Tiki Bar! This is going to be a new monthly event at Linger Longer Lounge and I'm here for it! I haven't had yummy tiki style drinks in a long time so this was a treat! And what a fun way to spend a Sunday afternoon: at a cool spot with awesome people! At one point there was a line out the door, so I recommend coming early if you can! A lot of the crowd was wearing Hawaiin shirts and outfits There were also a few special eats from Der Wurst Hot Dogs! Everything had a playful, tropical twist to stay on theme. Thanks for the great drinks, tikidan and captaindavid!

Love the vibes at Linger Longer Lounge! I stopped in for the first time to see my friend's band play and it was a great time! They have a bunch of indoor and outdoor seating and they serve food until late into the night which is a bonus. I ordered a hotdog which was okay, not wow quality, though their fries were 10/10. Overall it's a cool spot to chill with friends and I'd love to visit again sometime soon!

Loove this spot for a late night munch! I always get the chicken schnitzel sandwich and it hits every time. Staff is always friendly and the ambiance is laid back. They do karaoke on Mondays so if you're not into that vibe I'd order takeout definitely a dive bar worth going to!

Stopped in for a pre dinner drink tonight. This place is dive-y which isn't what I usually go for but it was cool! Booths were empty cause everyone was up at the bar. The bartender was super friendly and helpful. I wanted a coconut margarita but they were out of coconut so he suggested a passionfruit marg which I got instead. My husband had a beer and said it tasted a little off from the hose or something. But that it was ok. We did have fun here and enjoyed the playlist they had going haha.

Initially, I had low expectations for this hidden gem. However, it turned out to be the perfect spot for me to chill, and I am looking forward to returning. I appreciate the fact that they have a section dedicated to bar games like pool and ski ball, as well as a separate area for dancing. The outdoor seating in the alley is a nice touch for socializing. The bartenders were exceptionally friendly, which added to the overall great experience.

Stumbled upon this little hidden gem. We were not disappointed. Had some some Montucky Cold snacks at perfect temperatures. The vibes were on point they had a set called Neon Navajo and they were playing some great jams ! I would definitely be coming back.

If you haven't been, you're missing out. Requinto "pop-up" kitchen at Linger Longer Lounge @ 6522 N. 16th St. #6, Phoenix (same strip plaza as Pie Snob) is some of the most authentic and refined Oaxacan fare we've ever had. Only weekends (SAT/SUN) from 10am-1pm. M-F the kitchen is Der Wurst Hot Dogs, which is as elevated as hot dogs/sausages can get and has a mean schnitzel too!

Another trip to linger longer, another delicious pretzel. It wasn't crowded on a Thursday night, they were playing chill music, just the perfect place to hangout and grab some food with friends.

Way overrated. Food was awful. Fries were dry and hard, like they gave me yesterday's fries. As a dive it's fine, but the reviews here give the impression that it's so much more than what it is.

We recently hosted a birthday party for my husband at Linger Longer Lounge- we rented out the private party area that has pool tables, darts, etc for a few hours and purchased some munchies for our guests. Everyone loved the space and food! Most people stayed and enjoyed the bar after our reserved time. It was super easy to reach out to book the space and the staff working that night were great to work with. Highly recommend and will be back for more celebrations!

We had a party here for my birthday and it was great fun. There's a party room that has two pool tables, two skee ball machines, two dart boards, as well as lots of board games. I wanted a place to hang that was easy, casual and fun and Linger Longer Lounge was perfect. Will the manager was great at communicating and helping with the details. Chef Nick was amazing too. He made great sausage and cheese boards along with vegetarian boards. The Schnitzel Chicken fingers are really tasty as is the handmade kettle chips and onion dip. I highly recommend the LLL! It's also a great neighborhood bar.

Cool atmosphere and their guava cider is really good, not too sweet not too sour. This is what I would return for. We were there this Friday night and we were really enjoying ourselves drinking and chatting. Then a chick started blasting 2000s music, not sticking to any genre in particular, mostly some annoying tunes. We were looking for more of a chill night and this really killed our vibe. A more curated play list would've been nice. Cool if you're trying to get trashy with some friends.

The cumbia brunch is AMAZING!!!! Probably some of best Mexican food in the valley is right here with a pretty fun soundtrack. This is our second time here and everything has been out of this world good. The chef here understands heat and the spicy isn't just spicy, it's flavorful. We are on out second trip and have eaten most of the menu and there is nothing I wouldn't recommend. The sauce on the baked eggs is one of the best things I've eaten all year- we got extra tortillas to make sure none was left. The tacos, both the vegetarian and meat option were perfect. I know it's just a pop up, but seriously this chef has struck gold and I for one will happily follow him into his inevitable brick and mortar someday. The service is also wonderful and the drinks were delicious. Definitely recommended adding a Tajín rim to the Mexican mimosa. Forgive the bite out of the taco in the picture, we couldn't wait

Fun place to grab drinks and play pool. Pretty decent red wine option too. It's a hole-in-the-wall place with charm and ambience.

This place is the real deal. Came for some live music on Saturday night and had a great time. Craft cocktails are excellent. Service is great and so was the food. Highly recommend. Also, loved the bands, especially Dadweed!

Love this place! It's very chill with a wide variety of patrons. The drinks are reasonably priced, the food is good, the music is great. The frys are out of this world!

Great beer, excellent tunes and skee-ball. That is all I ask for in a bar. Add friendly staff, non-creepy fellow patrons and a location near home, and I've found a bar I would go to regularly -- if I still went to bars regularly. Sadly, I don't. Luckily, my hairstylist moved to the salon next door, so I will make it here at least four times a year. You'll find me at the skee-ball machine!

Always solid. Never let me down. Great neighborhood bar. Will never stop believing or coming here!

Linger longer is a great place to hang out, the food is good (the grilled cheese is my favorite, add bacon jam) the staff is friendly and always willing to recommend a drink. Frozen drinks are fun in the summer. They host a lot of events for local groups and clubs so it can get pretty busy. Pool table, darts and nice patio too.

Coordinated a work holiday happy hour at Linger Longer and everything was great from the food, drinks, music and service! We will be back soon!!

My friend treated me to brunch at this kickass bar. Very laid back, and unpretentious vibe had me instantly relaxed and happy as we sat down at the bar. The staff is really awesome, and the food is great! I went with my friends recommendation, and we each ordered the pork chop breakfast which comes with a hefty bone in pork chop, potatoes and two eggs your style. I devoured my food, and licked my plate. We had some good bourbon to wash it all down, and chatted it up with happy bellies. I have since come back several times, and it's always a great experience. Go check it out!

It's a dive. It's a friendly dive. It's a friendly dive with a great selection of sausages. The menu wording is not for children, just FYI.

We recently went here to celebrate a friend coming into town and I have to say, it was delightful! Super chill atmosphere, music was on point, bartender? CLUTCH! I wasn't sure what I wanted and after three question he made the most lovely drink for me! Impressive. There is a cute patio which was nice, and the food!? Oh my. OH MY! I have no pictures of food or drinks because I basically inhaled everything we got. Schnitzel chicken tendered. Pretzels. Fries. Dogs (hot dogs) all seriously so good. We love that it's local, the people were nice... honestly just a good place to know about and enjoy!

Bring back linger longer 2015! What happened to personal & friendly bartenders... good fun dancing music... and an amazing crowd? LLL needs a takeover! Btw when I asked about the manager no one could tell me who! Please fix this LLL used to be so great.

We love Linger Longer so much that we got MARRIED here! Owner, Jade, and all of the staff over at Linger are always kind, attentive, and super chill. If you haven't tried the chicken schnitzel or a hot dog from Der Wurst, you're seriously missing out! This will forever be a staple for my husband and I, and we look forward to creating so many more memories here in the future!

The bar and staff are top quality and make great cocktails from an Old Fashioned to a standard dive bar vodka soda. Lots of good Non Alcoholic options too! Food wise: probably the best chicken tenders and most creative menu of hot dogs in Phoenix (Der Wurst). They even have vegan friendly options. Not to mention the other quality pop-up restaurants that occasionally use the kitchen throughout the year. Dog F. sounds like an insane person implying the owner would rather poison people they don't like instead of taking their money and talking shit about them after they leave like any other successful business owner.

Came in this past Thursday . Deadsville. Okay.. we'll sit a bit. Was with my friend so we were catching up. Went to the bar to order drinks. Honestly the most unwelcoming bartender. No hello... welcome in. Just what can I get you? I started a tab and sat down. Again.... place was pretty empty. But yet... dirty tables everywhere. That just grossed me out. I honestly wouldn't consider ordering food because of how dirty the place was. Drinks were good. I will say. Thank you for that. It's a bar. I think that is all it ever will be.

chill spot w a bomb ass grilled cheese and lots of games. dog friendly patio. nice people

Came here in a late Saturday due to seeing their menu and pictures of food on Yelp. Unfortunately, the kitchen was closed due to renovations. The bartender who took our order was very sweet. After asking for the food menu, they explained the renovations they were being done and invited us to come back next week. Since we were out-of-towners visiting, we explained we couldn't. My boyfriend ordered a Stella Artois while I had a mixed drink. Prices were very reasonable. Nice atmosphere to come and hangout with friends. Open till two with plenty of parking.

Last night was my first night out in Phoenix since March 16th. Linger was one of the last bars I went to that weekend before the Covid shutdowns and based on how amazing the owners have been since day 1 - putting people and public safety over profits - I wanted to show my support to them first. Well, they absolutely didn't disappoint! They're doing window service from the patio which has tables set up with proper social distancing. The game room is open also with tables spread out. Hand sanitizer at the window and at a table near the entrance. Staff are all wearing masks and greeting you with excitement as per usual. Oh! I didn't eat there last night but I'm so stoked that Der Wurst Hot Dogs has set up shop in their kitchen. Having been a regular pre-Covid on Monday nights specifically, I loved grabbing one of those delish gourmet wieners while playing trivia so it's awesome that I'll be able to order one any night of the week now! All in all, I highly recommend coming to Linger for a drink or a bite. So go show a local bar that genuinely cares about its patrons and people in general some love while practicing proper safety measures!

My favorite bar in Phoenix. * Friendliest Staff * Friendliest Owner * Friendliest Atmosphere It's not too hipster and not too divey, yet the cocktails that could be served at MercBar. The food purveyors they partner with dish out some of the best bar offerings I've had in any city. The Linger Longer is what it would be like if Danzig owned Cheers. They even give back to the community with fundraisers and bottled water collections. How could you not like this place?

My friend originally picked a different place to hangout, good thing he found this great place. The atmosphere is great, two different areas an and open area in between. We talked to the bartender and told us great things about this place. This chicken fingers were so good I ordered two times, I thought about ordering a third time, decided to save it for the next time I come by.

We walked in looked at menu and seating and walked out. We could tell it was a bar on Google, but after physically being there it was not our thing

Very cool 60's vibe in the decor. Met a friend there after work on a Wednesday - it was kinda dead but still a chill spot. I'd go back, for sure

Linger is one of my absolute favorite bars in uptown Phoenix. With several different rooms and entertainment offerings you can basically spend your entire weekend here and have a different experience each night. Want to get your trivia on? Bring a crew on Mondays to participate! What about games? Have you seen that game room? Make a tournament bracket and get competitive. Like to dance? Drop by on Friday or Sat where local deejays light up the dance floor. Like the Suns? They host viewing parties. Not to mention the staff is so so nice and chill. I always feel at home at Linger and it's largely due to the way they treat their customers. ALSO! Have you tried those wieners with homemade fries? Delish. Also if you're vegan like myself - there is more than one option for us! YAY. If you ever find yourself in uptown, you gotta visit this spot. You won't be disappointed.

The Linger Longer Lounge is one of my favorite bars! Everyone there is super friendly, the food is great, overall a great vibe. Trivia on Monday's with Anwar is great! Thanks for all of the good times

About a month ago I decided I wanted to throw a birthday party for my dog. I wanted something where a few friends could get together, relax, and celebrate while still feeling comfortable about social distancing. I had heard that Linger Longer Lounge will do private events. After talking with Jade and securing the date I realized how great this dog party was going to be. The patio all to ourselves with the gates closed so the pups could safely play, delicious food, and awesome cocktails! Jade really went above and beyond she set up the cutest lil dog area with astroturf, a birthday banner, party hats, and treats. It was such a great day and I look forward to hosting more events at Linger Longer Lounge in the future!

Wow, this bar has everything and it's super cute too! Great staff and owner! Amazing cocktails, and the brunch on the weekend is killer! I also appreciate that they kick out creepy dudes! More bars should be like this!

I'm glad to have had so many great nights here before it started going downhill. Last year, their themed dance parties, or "Tongue Tied" ceased to exist, and weren't replaced with anything noteworthy. Soon after, ownership changed--it's some supergroup of former employees, with others from The Rogue as well as Gracie's Tax Bar. So naturally I'm thinking "oh they'll just make it a punk bar". And I had trouble coming to terms with that given a bar further south on 16th street has been executing that concept flawlessly for quite some time now. Their formula for doing so was pretty generic, as they simply installed a jukebox and expanded the area in which you can smoke. If you ever visited the aforementioned dive bars, those changes aren't a surprise. Buuut...here's the deal: LLL's identity was a cool disco/lounge for a predominantly older millennial/younger Gen X crowd to dance. I am absolutely down for changing it up, but at least have a vision. Abandoning the kitchen altogether and replacing it all with a pasta food truck was ill-advised, if not lazy. Credit for doing something unique with food--no one thinks of pasta when they think pub food--but I mean come on, that's for good reason. It's sloppy, and not very sharable. It's asking for marinara to just get everywhere. I am not fully against food trucks, so long as they rotate. But banking on your customers enjoying just one type of food when they had many options before is asking for a lot. Oh, and bye bye to signature drinks as well, it appears. Fortunately, the bar doesn't seem to have undergone any more fundamental changes than that. It makes sense to me that in both my visits since the change, this place has been totally dead. It's gone from a surefire way to impress my downtown/Tempe loving friends with a hidden gem off the beaten path, to one of the valley's boring and nondescript strip mall watering holes. It's not fun any more. I am wary of going out of my way here once more, and with cooler places perennially failing just west on 7th street, I fear for its longevity. On its current trajectory, I don't think this spot survives 2020. Nevertheless, I hope it gets better. I'll give it another try should they post new events with more than a dozen people interested. But will I give it a good review? Not yet.

Fun, hip lively place. Laid back cool vibe. Earlier in the evening a wide mix of people and age groups frequent this fun bar. Later and into the wee hours a younger crowd takes over.They play a wide mix of music that features 90's pretty heavily. Perfect for dancing with your friends in a smaller more intimate dance floor. Food and drinks are good and they have darts as well.

While I enjoyed my fried pickles I wish the description had said garnished with cheese. Trivia was fun and entertaining. This place is a neat because it has a little arcade attached to it as well. Drinks are great but not a single vegan option on the menu. Service is very friendly and will accommodate to weird food requests thank goodness.

Cocktails aren't what they used to be under new ownership. Staff is really friendly, but the drinks are just OK. LLL's role these days seems to be keeping guests hydrated while they wait for their Saint Pasta orders to come out.

I used Linger Longer to help cater a cocktail party I had a few weeks ago at my home. I ordered a cheese board, a sausage board, and large tray of schnitzel. Nicholas was amazing to work with, and the food was absolutely a huge hit! Everyone was asking about it. I can see why they have received so many awards. My only regret was that I didn't take a picture of the boards when I unwrapped them...not only were they delicious, but they were beautifully assembled and presented. I highly recommend LL for catering your next party, large or small. Thank you, Nicholas!

I really didn't enjoy my experience here. I had been wanting to try this bar since I moved into the neighborhood so I went in with great anticipation. For me it's rare that I get to go out and drink because I follow very strict nutrition protocols, so when I do I really want to have a good time. We walked in and walked up to the bar. We we're not greeted, even though there were 3 people behind the bar. The bar was dirty and we had to ask for it be wiped down. The staff was not friendly and really didn't seem interested in serving us. Then when we did get service, none of the alcohol that we wanted was in stock. We walked out and to a local dive bar and got great service and had a great time. I give it 3 stars, because I'm willing to try it again. But it will be a while....

Linger Longer Lounge is a fantastic spot with great food and well priced drinks. The trivia on Monday night is the BEST!

We have always enjoyed this place. They have changed owners recently, and we really enjoyed the changes. We loved the bartender and manager and the alcohol seems pretty much the same. They have added different food which is way better, in my opinion. A couple who used to have a pasta food truck are now doing the food here. I had the garlic and oil pasta which was one of the best I've had in my life. They also will be adding a salad option and they have two different kinds of pizza. We are always looking for a place that has both good food and beer options and this was one of those places. I heard someone ask if there were specials and they had one of the local beers for $2.00. What more could you ask for? We definitely will be spending more time here.

I had a nice time here. It's very dive- bar-e but the servers were all nice the food was good and they have nice booth seating too.
