The LINQ Promenade On The Vegas Strip (The Ultimate Guide)

Located across from Caesars Palace on the Las Vegas Strip is a little open-air esplanade that may seem unassuming at first glance but is actually packed full of unique Vegas experiences. Everything from restaurants and nightlife to shops and attractions. 

Opened in 2014, The LINQ Promenade has grown to be a notable part of the Las Vegas skyline and is definitely worth a spot on your Sin City itinerary.

In this guide, I’ll break down everything you need to know about visiting The LINQ Promenade on Las Vegas Boulevard, including all of the places I’d consider must-sees.

LINQ Promenade: Shop ‘Til You Drop

Get ready to encounter some of the best stores the city has to offer. Whether you’re going in on a shopping mission or just to look around, you’ll be hard-pressed not to leave The LINQ Promenade without carrying at least a few shopping bags.

Here are some of the top shops at The LINQ Promenade:

Pier 30

Maybe LAS (Harry Reid International Airport) lost your suitcase, you didn’t pack thoroughly enough, or you’re just itching for a new swimsuit to brave the Las Vegas heat. Whatever your reasons for wandering into Pier 30, I have no doubt that it’ll be one of your favorite places to shop whenever you visit the promenade.

Pier 30 is the summer vacationers’ dream, with the entire store packed wall to wall with swimwear, surfwear, and all the accessories and clothing a skateboarder could dream up. Something that I respect about the store is how much effort they put into knowing what’s on-trend without sacrificing unique looks.

Aside from athletic clothing, the store also features a ton of casual wear that’s well suited for the Vegas heat. 

Socks & Bottoms

Probably the cheekiest stop on the Promenade, you and the family could spend hours browsing the collection of novelty socks and underwear at Socks & Bottoms and still not make a dent in their inventory.

Known for their unique, creative takes on otherwise basic clothing pieces, I have no doubt that there’s an undergarment (or twelve) in stock for everyone on your shopping list.

I’d definitely recommend the store to households or couples looking for a fresh take on the matching t-shirt situation that so many families rock during vacation season. Despite its popularity among gift givers, it’s also a great stop if you’re looking to expand your own personal sock or undie collection.

They have pop-culture references, sports team logos, even Cup of Noodle printed tube socks! It doesn’t stop there, though, as they also have matching two-piece sets that are perfect for bed or to don after dark. 

Welcome To Las Vegas Store

Named after the famous ‘Welcome To Fabulous Las Vegas” sign, consider the Welcome To Las Vegas Store the one and only place you need to stop to grab souvenirs for you and your crew! The selection is endless and vast, with a variety of different keepsakes for all ages and interests. 

Whether you’re looking for on-trend tees and sweatshirts, or something campy to give your hard-to-please distant cousins, you’ll find everything you wanted (and even a couple of things you didn’t know you wanted) and more on the shelves of this more-than-just-a-souvenier-store.

Unlike a lot of the novelty stores on and off The Strip, the quality of the mementos you’ll find at the Welcome To Las Vegas store is top-notch and will last you long after your flight back home.

Grabbing A Bite at LINQ Promenade

With all the walking you’ll be doing, it’s only natural you’ll want to stop for a bite to eat. Whether you’re in the mood for desserts, all-American classics, or sultry French bistros- there’s a food stop at the LINQ Promenade for every taste.

Here are a few of our favorites:

Guy Fieri’s Vegas Kitchen + Bar

No visit to Las Vegas would be complete without a stop at Guy Fieri’s Vegas Kitchen + Bar! Celebrity Chef Guy Fieri is revered for his culinary feats and the distinctive twists he makes on classic dishes like the basic hamburger or a plate of nachos.

So, if you’re looking for some comfort food during your trip but still want an unforgettable experience- this is your stop.

The casual ambiance of the restaurant makes it an appropriate stop for the entire family. If you’re looking for views, this might not be a bad place to stop by either!

You can enjoy your meal on a 6,500-square-foot patio that overlooks The LINQ Promenade. Those seats are quick to go, though, so it wouldn’t hurt to make a reservation ahead of time.

Maxie’s

Do you know the saying that people “eat with their eyes”? I wasn’t quite sure how much truth that held until I learned about Maxie’s. I also never felt as strong of a compulsion to take pictures of our food until they took up shop on the promenade, either!

Serving 3 meals a day, 7 days a week, Maxie’s is ready to offer you and your crew a new take on traditional diner food. Due to their serving sizes, and the overall dining experience, I would definitely recommend this restaurant for diners who want to sit and enjoy their food rather than just have a quick bite.

If you’re looking for a truly instagrammable meal, make sure to order their ‘Fruity Pebble French Toast’ or one of their ‘Benedict Boxes’ (which they’re famous for!).

Jaburritos

Need something portable? Jaburritos has got your back! That’s right: Ja-burritos. Japanese burritos! Combining the portability of the Mexican burrito and the taste of your favorite sushi rolls, the food phenomenon has taken the world by storm (and it isn’t stepping out of the spotlight anytime soon!).

This food stop is perfect if you’re trying to make the most of your time on the promenade, as you can carry it around with you and eat as you walk- but if you’re not ready to hop onto the sushi burrito movement, you also have the option of getting your food served up in a bowl instead.

This is probably one of the most customizable food locations at The LINQ Promenade. Think of it like Chipotle, but for Japanese food. You have the option of getting your fillings in a seaweed, soy, or tortilla wrap, and you can add or remove any of the ingredients you’d like. Easy-peasy!

Favorite Bistro

Looking for a place to tuck away from the hustle and bustle of The Strip? Favorite Bistro is definitely the place to go. Founded by the owners of the famous ‘Senequier’ café in St. Tropez, France, the Favorite Bistro on The LINQ Promenade is the first restaurant they set up on US soil- and it does not disappoint.

Immerse yourself in the meticulously formulated dishes that keep locals and tourists coming back for more, and allow yourself to be taken to the French countryside with every single bite. What makes this stop so special is that they combine traditional French dishes with the heartiness of American grub, making for an indescribable flavor experience. 

Lively Bars & Nightlife at LINQ Promenade

Though The LINQ Promenade is gorgeous in the daytime, the fun doesn’t stop once the sun goes down! Here are just a few of the nighttime stops this slice of the city has to offer:

Purple Zebra Daiquiris

Exuberantly named, Purple Zebra is the stop for adults looking to relive the fro-yo days of their youth! Featuring 8 incredible daiquiri flavors (ranging from Peachy Keen to out-of-this-world tastes like Cosmic Lemonade), you’ll find yourself gravitating back to the self-serve bar every single night of your stay.

It’s a good thing that refills are completely a thing and actually cost less than your initial purchase. At Purple Zebra, you’re encouraged to mix flavors up to make for your perfect taste combination, and with the slew of different drink containers you can choose from, you’ll leave with a daiquiri that’s entirely your own!
