Swingers is a crazy golf club, and it might be the most fun you can have in a basement.
First, let’s clear the air
The name made me laugh before I even walked in. Swingers is a crazy golf club, which is the British way of saying mini golf, except grown-up, boozy, and wildly over the top. The only swinging happening here is with a putter.
It’s hidden underground
You head downstairs and suddenly you are in a 1920s English country golf club. We’re talking 23,000 square feet with 20-foot-high ceilings, a grand clubhouse, and a whole lot of "wait, are we still in Manhattan?" It’s a total mood shift from the street above, and that’s exactly the point.
The courses are NOT your childhood mini golf
Forget the sad windmill at the shore. There are three different 9-hole courses here, and they are themed, quirky, and genuinely fun to play. (Yes, there is an actual windmill. It is just much cooler than the one you remember.) Everyone suddenly becomes weirdly competitive about a tiny ball, and I support that energy fully.
The drinks come to YOU 🍸
This is my favorite part. Caddies serve craft cocktails right on the course, so you never have to stop mid-game to go find a bar. There are also multiple bars scattered throughout the club, including signature cocktails from the London original. Mini golf with a drink in hand is the correct way to play, and I won’t be taking questions.
Swingers brings in street food vendors like , so you can eat well before, during, or after your round. You don’t have to be golfing to enjoy it, either. The bars and food are open to walk-ins, so even if your friend group is split on the golf thing, everyone can still hang.
Who should go
✅ Friend groups, birthdays, and team outings (they do group packages, and it is great for office events).
✅ Date nights for couples who want something to do besides dinner.
✅ Anyone who wants a night out that’s a little silly and a lot social.
Swingers is the rare spot that works for nearly any plan, whether it is a first date, a birthday, or a "we all need to blow off steam" Thursday. Come for the golf, stay for the cocktails, and be ready to take an extremely tiny ball much too seriously.
