Some restaurants turn long waits into a highlight, not a hassle. At places like Portland’s Screen Door, folks swap stories and coffee while the line snakes around the block for legendary fried chicken. In Brooklyn, L’Industrie Pizzeria hands out samples and strangers share slices as anticipation builds. Even in Texas, Steiner Ranch Steakhouse’s porch views and live music make three-hour waits feel like a party. These spots prove that when the food and vibes are right, nobody minds lingering a little longer. What’s the longest you’ve ever waited for a meal—and was it worth it? #Food #FoodieLife #WorthTheWait
