Linger

Inventive international street food meets friendly service at this Lower Highlands hot spot built on the site of a former mortuary. Twenty- and thirty-somethings pack the 1980s-inspired Lite-Brite bar to indulge in classic cocktails and chef Justin Cucci's sesame BBQ tacos, bacon-wrapped dates, and Wagyu sliders topped with peppered bacon and a curried sour cream. If the weather is nice, head to the roof for $5 happy hour wine or to sample favorites like the pork belly bao buns. And don't miss weekend brunch—served from 10 am to 2:30 pm—when in-the-know locals post up for hours to enjoy bottomless blood orange mimosas.
