Those letters are spelled out with Rattle Snakes!



"One Of The Top Five Weirdest Restaurants In The Nation"



Located on the Braden River in Bradenton, FL and recently voted by Forbes Magazine as

“One of the World’s Top 10 Unusual Places To Dine”














As you might expect, there was even a Road Kill menu featuring "Bag-N-Gag" and "Guess That Mess" Specials. "Road Grill Menu" here

Yeah, I’d say it was just a Tad Unique!


We'll post the next trip (to the Lakeridge Winery) in the SE Regional area, but anyone is welcome to go with us.

I'll bet that group turned lots of heads going down the road.

13 cars in all ~ made for a great caravan. What's funny is that we were originally going to take our business to the Twin Dolphins Restaurant on the Bradenton Pier, but when we asked for a reservation and seating on the deck, we were told that if we had more than 10 cars and or 20 people seating would not be guaranteed, we would have to order from a limited menu, there would be a Mandatory 20% tip, and there could only be ONE check.

Soooo, we adjusted!

Someone inside Linger saw us rolling in and before any of us could even get into the restaurant, the staff was already setting tables for us out on the deck.

We had 2 waitresses who were so efficient, I'd be hard pressed to believe they Only Received 20%!

Will we go back? Absolutely

Yea, it always slays me that places will set a mandatory tip and make unreasonable rules for groups. As I almost always will tip more (90% of the time) if the service is good, but if they make a mandatory tip that's all I give. Places like that just p!$$ me off and I usually will just never go back and let my feelings be known to everybody else.
