The LINQ Promenade is an open-air dining, entertainment, and shopping district running between Las Vegas Boulevard (the Strip) and Koval Lane, adjacent to the LINQ Hotel + Experience. It is home to the LINQ High Roller observation wheel, the Fly LINQ Zipline, Gordon Ramsay Fish & Chips, In-N-Out Burger, O’Sheas Casino Bar, and over 20 bars, restaurants, and retail outlets. Entry to the Promenade is free — attractions and dining are ticketed or priced separately.
The LINQ Promenade is more than the approach to the High Roller — it is one of the Strip’s most walkable and diverse outdoor entertainment areas, with a full evening’s worth of dining, drinking, live entertainment, and attraction options concentrated in a single pedestrian-friendly corridor. This complete guide covers everything on the Promenade: every major dining and bar option, the two headline attractions, street entertainment, retail, and how to build a perfect full-evening itinerary around the High Roller.

Getting there: How to Get to the LINQ High Roller
The Two Headline Attractions
LINQ High Roller
The LINQ High Roller anchors the far (eastern) end of the Promenade. At 550 feet, it is the world’s tallest observation wheel and the most distinctive landmark on the central Strip. The 30-minute rotation in an enclosed glass cabin delivers 360-degree panoramic views of the Strip, the Nevada desert, and the Spring Mountains. Two ticket tiers: Standard (from $28 daytime) and Happy Half Hour open bar (from $67, 21+).
Fly LINQ Zipline
The Fly LINQ Zipline runs the full 1,121-foot length of the Promenade at up to 35 mph, approximately 114 feet above the ground. Riders travel face-down in a prone harness — one of the most unusual zipline formats in the US. The ride lasts approximately 60 seconds; most riders do two consecutive runs. Minimum height 48 inches. Tickets from $30 single run. The zipline cable is visible throughout the Promenade overhead — you’ll watch riders shooting past while you dine or walk.

Dining on the LINQ Promenade
The LINQ Promenade has over a dozen dining options ranging from Gordon Ramsay Fish & Chips (celebrity chef sit-down) to In-N-Out Burger (the iconic Nevada fast food institution). Most venues on the Promenade are casual and accessible without reservations, though Gordon Ramsay’s and a few other table-service restaurants benefit from advance booking on busy evenings.
Gordon Ramsay Fish & Chips
The celebrity chef’s casual British-style fish and chip shop on the Promenade is consistently one of the most-reviewed dining options in the area. Beer-battered cod, thick-cut chips, and a full drinks menu in a casual, fast-turnover format. No reservations required; queue outside during peak evening hours. Good pre-High Roller or post-show dining option.
In-N-Out Burger
The Nevada institution and one of the most-visited fast food locations in Las Vegas. The LINQ Promenade In-N-Out is famous for its queue — viewed from the High Roller, the line outside is a recognisable landmark in its own right. Order from the standard menu or the secret menu (Animal Style, Protein Style, etc.). Budget-friendly, fast, and genuinely excellent burgers. Ideal for groups who want a low-cost, quick option before or after their ride.
Hash House A Go Go
A Las Vegas dining institution known for its enormous portions. Known especially for brunch, with giant pancakes, ‘Twisted Farm Food’, and oversized Benedict dishes. Opens for breakfast and lunch — closes before most evening activity on the Promenade, so plan around it for a pre-ride meal earlier in the day.
Chayo Mexican Kitchen + Tequila Bar
Chayo brings Mexican-American cuisine and an extensive tequila programme to the Promenade. The rooftop terrace has direct High Roller views — book a terrace table in the evening for the most dramatic dining perspective in the Promenade. Good for groups; lively atmosphere.
Additional Dining Options
- Tilted Kilt Pub & Eatery: Sports bar with a full pub menu — multiple screens, good for groups watching games while eating
- Flour & Barley: Wood-fired pizzas and craft beer in a sit-down setting
- Guy Fieri’s Vegas Kitchen + Bar: The Food Network star’s casual American diner — open daily for lunch and dinner, with a wide burger and sandwich menu
Bars and Nightlife on the LINQ Promenade
O’Sheas Casino Bar
O’Sheas is one of the most beloved casual bars on the Las Vegas Strip — a genuine neighbourhood-feel bar embedded in the middle of a Strip casino complex. Table games (blackjack, craps, roulette) are available alongside cheap drinks and a lively crowd. Open 24 hours; no dress code; one of the most accessible casino bar experiences for visitors who find traditional casino floors intimidating.
Yard House
The Yard House brings its extensive draught beer menu (100+ taps) and full American bar menu to the Promenade. A consistent favourite for pre or post-High Roller drinks. The long bar makes it easy to get a drink without waiting for table service.
Carnival World Buffet and Bar
A full casino-style buffet adjacent to the Promenade — good for large groups wanting a wide variety of food at a fixed price. Less of a Promenade destination than a practical large-group option.
The Steak Out
A late-night food and drink option near the High Roller entrance — one of the last venues to close on the Promenade, making it a natural post-ride stop after a late-night High Roller rotation.
Live Entertainment and Street Performance
The LINQ Promenade hosts regular live music, street performers, and pop-up entertainment throughout the day and evening. A central performance area midway along the Promenade hosts scheduled performances — check the LINQ Hotel events calendar for current programming. Street performers (magicians, musicians, costumed characters) operate throughout the Promenade, particularly in the peak 6:00 pm–midnight window.
Shopping on the Promenade
The LINQ Promenade has a range of retail outlets alongside its food and entertainment offering:
- Polaroid Originals Store: Cameras, instant film, and accessories — popular for visitors who want a different photography angle on the High Roller
- 3D Las Vegas: Las Vegas-themed souvenirs and gifts
- Fly LINQ Merchandise: Branded gear and accessories from the zipline — popular with riders post-experience
- Various clothing and accessory boutiques: The Promenade has a mix of branded and independent retail throughout its length
Building a Perfect Evening Itinerary
The LINQ Promenade rewards a relaxed, unhurried approach — this is not a venue to rush through. A well-paced evening itinerary:
- 5:30 pm: Arrive and walk the Promenade — explore from the Strip entrance to the High Roller at the far end
- 6:00 pm: Early dinner at Chayo (rooftop terrace for High Roller views) or Gordon Ramsay Fish & Chips
- 7:00 pm: Fly LINQ Zipline — do both runs while it’s still light enough for clear views
- 7:45 pm: Board the High Roller for the sunset-to-neon transition ride. See our Opening Hours & Best Time guide for the optimal boarding window
- 8:30 pm onwards: Post-ride drinks at Yard House, O’Sheas, or the Steak Out; or walk the Strip toward your next destination
