    Brownie sundae nightcap
    Benjamin P.

    The sweet tooth is always satisfactorily satiated here at Swingers! Great desserts to cap off a long day and night. A fantastic late-night establishment with a diverse menu, besides desserts. My favorite dessert is the brownie sundae. Servers are a bit spread thin, and can be more attentive as a result. Nevertheless, overall experience is still great, supported by a cool, hip ambience.

    Patty Melt Sandwich

    Solid breakfast spot serving all the diner classics right. I came by with friends after a night out and it was just what I needed to start my day. First and most importantly the coke was perfection. I ordered a tuna melt and although it wasn't anything special is was definitely done right. The bread was toasted perfectly so it didn't get soggy. The fries here are also really good and the waiter gave me a pool of ranch to dip them in. Everyone else really enjoyed their food as well. Would definitely come back when we're in town.

    No matter how I feel when I come here, I always leave feeling better. The ambiance, service, and food always make me smile. I could go on and on about the vast menu but the truth is today's superstars were the grilled blueberry muffin and the brownie sundae. This place is everything Max and Helen's tries to be but isn't . Things are always on the bright side here and you never know whom you're going to bump into either. Thanks for always keeping it real Swingers, one of the last true ones open late.

    Breakfast sandwich and him potatoes, so very good!

    My husband loves taking me here. This is one of his favorite places to eat. We visited Saturday 7/18/26 after a concert we left that took place at the Saban. I got the breakfast sandwich with the home potatoes. Hubby had the breakfast sandwich and we shared some French toast. The food was delicious, as usual. My first time having the breakfast sandwich and it was so good, even the potatoes were pretty great. The French toast gave us that deliciously sweet kick that we both needed and enjoyed. The waiter (don't remember his name but he had a pretty cool mustache) was awesome. I asked for chamomile tea, he didn't think he had anymore so I chose a different kind of tea. When the tea was delivered by a different person, to my surprise it was chamomile. Our original waiter came over a little later and asked if I was ok with it. I told him how I appreciated him. It was pretty busy at this time of night and the guy was working his butt off. Touché to him! my husband and I appreciate you! There are so many different personalities that come through here while you're hanging out and eating your food, the vibe is always entertaining. I'm sure since my husband loves it here, we'll be back again soon.

    The cooks are pieces of sh*t when you dine in they give you nice and fresh fries but when you order fries to go. They give greasy disgusting fries. The waitress was nice tho...tall blond chick.

    The hospitality here is amazing. The seating and environment is very comfortable, and the food is also worth the visit. I got the vegan burrito which was very hearty and packed with quinoa. The chipotle sauce brought the flavors together. The vegan nachos were my favorite from what I tried. Lots of yummy food, and I was really happy to see vegan milkshakes on the menu! Although I didn't try the milkshake (because the food we ordered was so filling), it's definitely a reason to come back. So many wonderful options and vibes!

    All American breakfast with sausage and pancakes eggs over easy
    Joshua

    Tl;dr; this is a vibe restaurant. This is a late night restaurant. This is a rare gem at the right time in the morning.... This is the type of place you go because you live nearby, you like retro decor, or it's really late at night. I've been living here for about four months and I just found out that this place is open till 3 AM... there's only a couple other places open that late around here, norms, and Mel's with our I honestly find quite confusing. The waitress on the morning I was in, had an excellent alternative Gothic vibe; I could tell she knew things, I could tell she's seen things... and as a literal fire truck sirens screams by in the intersection next to where I'm at; I am reminded this is the city... I live really close to here so I'm going to be back. Not necessarily because the food blew me away, but because I live walking distance. The sausage and eggs were on point. The pancakes were a bit doughy, but ask for me next time I'll just try the French toast... and maybe I'll put on a record; Tarantino get your heart out... three stars on the food, extra star for the wait staff and the service...

    I went to Swingers Diner with a pal recently. I liked the atmosphere of the place. I had the All American breakfast meal. I liked the meal overall. I wasn't really a fan of the type of bread used for the french toast if anything due to its flavor and texture. I had the Brownie Sundae for dessert. The vanilla ice cream, chocolate syrup, and whipped cream were fine, but the brownie itself seemed a bit dry.

    Cute diner with a vintage feel. A bit overpriced, but the portion size is good. They serve breakfast all all day and my friend got eggs benedict and she liked it, I got the Turkey club and it was good. Their ranch was very delicious, but they charged me for it without letting me know it's extra charge which I didn't really like. Besides that, the service was great. Nice spot if your looking for an old school vibe diner. There's also a photobooth in the back.

    Menu

    Interesting cafe, definitely one of those places you need to visit once or multiple times in your lifetime. It's street parking, so it can be a short journey to the restaurant. The menu is packed full of choices to select from. The turkey club is packed full of goodness and served with fries, onion rings, or mac salad. The onion rings are the premier choice though. The staff is constantly hustling taking care of hungry diners and clearing tables for the next round of diners. You can go wrong visiting this restaurant.

    This is one of my favorite diners in West Hollywood!! I've been coming to this spot over 15 years!! I love their "All American Breakfast" and their avocado toast...it's so good!!! Their service is very good too, they're fast and friendly!! They really make you feel at home here! The ambiance is not bad either...a place reminiscent of the old days!!

    The food is amazing. Everything we ordered was delicious. Our waiter Jack was awesome, always checking in with us. Great service!! We had brunch and the diner wasn't too busy at the time we were there. They have tables, booths and outdoor seating as well. A big plus, the bathroom was VERY CLEAN!! I appreciate that!! Come and give them a try.

    Swingers Diner was a spot my friends hyped up a lot, so I had to try it for myself. We went pretty late, about thirty minutes before last call, and still had a great experience. We ordered the chicken nachos and they were amazing, hot, loaded, and perfect late night food. The mozzarella sticks were easily the best thing we had and the clear standout of the meal. I got the Neapolitan shake, which ended up being vanilla ice cream with chocolate syrup and strawberry bits. It was good, but my friend's peanut butter banana milkshake was way better and something I would order next time. I also tried the patty melt and the Swinger burger and honestly they tasted pretty much the same. Both were fine but not memorable. Service was impeccable from start to finish, which really made the visit enjoyable. Overall, Swingers is a great diner for classic diner food and late night cravings, but on a food quality scale I would put it around Norms or Denny's. Solid, comforting, and reliable rather than mind blowing.

Was hesitant to come by on Sunday morning around 10a after a Hollywood Reservoir run because our group of 8 didn't want to wait. Showed up anyways and so glad we did.

The drip coffee was decent, not my favorite but got the job done and they were good about refills. The lox bagel was light, easy on the cream cheese, and had the toppings that make a lox just right. Our server was extremely attentive even through the busyness. My only qualm was the 20% large party charge on our bill despite us splitting our group, sitting on different tables, and getting two separate checks. There's also a 4% additional tax "Kitchen Appreciation" which caught us off guard. Gotta love LA. Loved the diner minus the uncalled for additional charges.
