Denver has one of the best rooftop bars in the country, according to global travel site Big 7 Travel.
Linger, located in the old Olinger Mortuary at 2030 W. 30th Ave., was ranked No. 13 on the travel site’s list of the 50 best rooftop bars around the country this year.
The brainchild of Justin Cucci serves downtown views, global street food like Mongolian BBQ duck buns, Wagyu sliders and falafel lettuce wraps, plus carefully crafted cocktails, including frozen mai tais and rose sangria. The Olinger Mortuary sign is still illuminated as a nod to the building’s history, but the “O” in “Olinger” stays dim at night to represent the new tide.
Big 7 Travel offers curated recommendations for hotels, restaurants, bars and attractions to avoid the hassle of combing through various blogs and reviews.
Mama Shelter in Los Angeles was named as the No. 1 rooftop bar this year.
