London brand Swingers is the one-stop nightlife destination for revellers, serving up lashings of crazy golf, gourmet street food and cocktails in the British capital. There are two venues in London, with one in the West End at Oxford Circus and one in the City next to the Gherkin. Decked out in fabulous 1920s theming, the venues have capacity for 600 and 500 people respectively, and each has two nine-hole crazy golf courses.
There are plenty of dining and drinking options, with some of the city’s best street food on offer, as well as cocktail bars. Visitors have a difficult choice to make between four tempting street food vendors: hybrid Naples and New York pizza from Slice by Pizza Pilgrims, burgers from Patty&Bun, Mexican delights from Breddos and award-winning doughnuts from Crosstown. There is a wide selection of cocktails, wine, champagne, beer spirits and non-alcoholic drinks.
An Evolution in Mini Golf
Crazy golf has continuously increased in popularity since the first mini golf club was founded in the UK in 1867. Mini golf started to evolve into the crazy golf we know today when lawn game Gofstacle hit the shelves around 1907. Described as golf-croquet, a ball had to be hit with a putter through various obstacles like tunnels and hoops. Crazy golf boomed in the 1920s and 1940s, with many courses opening beyond the UK in the US and Europe. By 1970, crazy golf had become more affordable and family friendly, firmly cementing the activity in popular culture.
Swingers’ Unique Approach
Opening its City club doors in 2016 after a successful pop-up venue drew in the crowds the previous year, Swingers became the first dedicated crazy golf club to open in London. Its popularity is down to its unique approach: Swingers crazy golf is not just crazy golf. Swingers tailors itself to an adult audience through gourmet street food, cocktails and a party atmosphere. The lavish décor and photogenic food are the perfect backdrop for keeping friends up to date on social media, and the whole package has much more appeal than simply dining out or going for drinks.
The Crazy Golf Experience
Crazy golf at Swingers is a quintessentially British experience, which is why it appeals to locals and tourists alike. Visitors can expect a casual yet competitive activity that tests everyone’s skills in a gloriously swish environment. At both London Swingers venues there is a choice of two nine-hole crazy golf courses, and it takes 30 to 40 minutes to play a round. There are plenty of fun obstacles to keep players entertained throughout, and caddies are on hand to bring drinks over.
Swingers West End club has a seaside theme, and players can choose from the Helter Skelter and Big Wheel courses. There is an English countryside theme in Swingers City club, which has the Lighthouse and Windmill courses. Crazy golf is not compulsory, and visitors are most welcome to come only for food or drinks.
The Most Delectable Gourmet Street Food
Swingers is host to some of London’s best street food vendors. They have all the bases covered with an array of gourmet burgers, pizza, Mexican cuisine and sweet treats on offer.
