If you're after a fun private dining room in the City of London, Swingers City has not one, not two, but six. This lively crazy golf bar has everything you could need for an unforgettable evening on the town: two golf courses, five cocktail bars, four street food vendors, five private hire spaces, free wifi and capacity for up to 500 guests. Just a stone’s throw from Aldgate station, the bar is perfectly placed for post-work dining and drinking, easily accessible from most offices and further afield.
The most intimate space for hire is the President’s Committee Room, a glamorous, trophy-lined space for up to 35 guests. The more floral Gin Garden, meanwhile, can host up to 60. At the other end of the scale, exclusive hire allows up to 500 guests for a golfing, drinking and dining blowout. To drink, there are punchy cocktails like the hurricane Carter, a spicy blend of Havana Club 7, apricot brandy, spiced honey syrup, ginger beer and peach bitters. There are coffee-infused options like espresso martinis, classics like negronis and whiskey sours, and gin-based options like elderflower spritzes on hand too. Wines, beers, ciders and bubbly are available too, as are soft drinks and mocktails for anyone staying off the booze.
When dining at Swingers, there are plenty of delicious options for you to share or keep to yourself. If pizza is your thing, try the burrata and pesto or double pepperoni and hot honey from Pizza Pilgrims. If you prefer burgers, there are options like Patty&Bun’s smokey Robinson: aged beef patty, cheese, bacon, tomato, lettuce, caramelised onions, smokey mayo and ketchup in a brioche bun. For something a little more exotic, however, go for something from Breddos. These taco titans have plenty of tortilla-based treats to tuck into, including pork pibil, beef short rib barbacoa and Baja fish.
