Finally, some good news: Swingers diner gets saved and will reopen soon
Its former general manager purchased the restaurant and is bringing it back.
It’s rare for a restaurant to bounce back from what was meant to be permanent closure—especially during a recession and a pandemic—but one of L.A.’s most beloved late-night spots, watering holes and all-around favorite diners is doing just that.
“We are closed permanently, but hoping for a Hail Mary,” a representative of Swingers told Time Out L.A. at the start of April. It looks like now, thanks to its former general manager, the Beverly restaurant got one. According to a news release, the restaurant’s former general manager, Stephanie Wilson, purchased Swingers and finalized the paperwork over the weekend.
