What is it?
When Swingers opened in the City in 2016, it was pretty much a hole in one: 16,000 square feet of 1920s-themed crazy golf in an office block next to the Gherkin. Then that site in Suitsville got an even bigger, more outlandish sibling in the former BHS flagship store on Oxford Street.
Swingers West End is the second of its kind, and like its sibling in the City, it’s got a nine-hole course to knock your balls into. For the Helter Skelter course, there are a lot of loops that will have you going round in circles. On the Big Wheel course, things are just as tricky, with miniature mounds that’ll make you feel like a real hill-seeker. An ode to the English Riviera, Swingers West End has beach huts and bandstands – plus lush palms for added ‘Miami Vice’ vibes. It’s basically like your best seaside holiday, but with more booze.
Why go?
For some healthy competition accompanied by a vast pick classic (and not-so-classic) cocktails.
Don’t miss
