MARK'S IN AND OUT

You simply cannot go to Livingston and not visit Mark’s In and Out. They have been serving up burgers and milkshakes since 1954. Mark’s is not a sit down restaurant, you order at the outside window and wait patiently for your food. Because they are only open in the summer you will always find a line but trust us, it is worth the wait!
