Linger Longer Lounge - Spirit Lake, Idaho

This was one incredible experience!! I absolutely loved feeling like I was a kid again while being able to have adult goodies!! The old school games, kids in a bar, the real food and the people oh the people were amazing 😍😍 love that they own the Moose Lodge too and can't wait to experience a whole day of Spirit Lake and this place!

We ordered food for 5 people, take out. It was done within a half hour. No complaints from anyone about the food. We don't frequent bars ever but this place we would probably give a try some day for a sit down. Thank you for the great food Linger Longer.

Update 6/17/24: we have now tried them 4 more times since the owner reached out. I will say so much better! We actually have it as a weekly option for us now. We got the supreme pizza along with a pepperoni and sausage and both are good. We love the garlic cheese toast as well. I’m very glad we have them another chance for take out and dine in. It is a family friendly location, with outdoor seating. We enjoyed some live music and outdoor seating with our family. If you are looking for some good food in Spirit Lake this is a place I would recommend!

Original:
Nice staff, at least the one gal I called our order into! She informed me they couldn’t do to go I could only do take a bake. Not a huge deal, but not ideal. Unfortunately the pizza wasn’t really even edible. Beyond greasy and would not cook even after I soaked about 8 paper towels of grease from underneath the pizza and so much more left over underneath and on top of the pizza. At that point I just stopped trying to soak it up. . We had heard great things but after spending $50 and no real meal out of it we likely won’t return.

Of the 3 pubs on Maine street until recently I regarded Linger Longer as the best. I went into Linger Longer and sat at the bar and ordered a beer. Got into a conversation with a fellow patron as often happens. Ordered a second beer and a refill for the individual I was conversing with along with a nice tip for the female bartender who was serving us (my tips are generous to the point of them asking me if I want change to which I always reply in the negative). Anyway, I was enjoying the conversation and the atmosphere so I ordered a third beer, this time from a large, overweight, male bartender. I jokingly told him to cut me off after this beer (I never have more than 3 beers in one setting even if they are just light beers). I’ve used this phrase before with other bartenders at this establishment with no negative repercussions. This bartender however got all “legal” and informed me in a loud voice that because I had phrased my order in such a manner he “was obligated” to cut me off after this order and then repeated to the other bartender a few feet away in a loud voice the same. I am sure that all the patrons at the bar heard everything which pretty much put a damper on my previously good mood (not to mention the embarrassment).

Someone in this establishment should inform this character that he isn’t working at the Department of Motor Vehicles or the U.S. Post Office. I don’t expect to be treated like royalty because I’m not but I also don’t expect to be treated like dirt. I guess it’s time to find another place for that Saturday night beer.

Mike, the bartender was very friendly and did a great job! The cook was sweet/attentive and the food was very good. Enjoyable experience.

I gave 1 star because 0 was not an option. We ordered 2 pizzas. They were both burned. We found a hair in the cheese only that we discovered was baked into the crust. We tried calling to tell them and left a few messages. When they did not call back, we decided to post this review and pics. This was the first, and now only, time we ordered from them.

They were extremely busy due to an event in town.
Service was good.
The food was good except our pizza was overcooked with burnt crust.
I don't think we will be going back anytime soon.
Maybe try it again at some point.
