    Swing bar is a great place is one of our favorites. The service is always impeccable. The atmosphere is great. Food is pricey but very good. Staf is always on top of it, but not checking on you all the time either wine pairings are normally spot on great place for a date.

    The cocktails at Swing are so creative and delicious. And our meal was fantastic. We had salads and soups to start and then 3 of the 4 of us had the lamb chop special. So, so good!

    Always such a treat to spend time with friends dining at Swing Bar. We could easily hear one another while laughing and sharing some outstanding wine and food. The service is always professional and friendly. It sure made the rainy, blustery evening seem warm and cozy.

    Chanterelle mushroom soup and Lamb chops, what a wonderful fall meal. I wish other Olympia restaurants would follow their lead with changing up their menus to fit the seasons. That’s why we come back to Swing!

    Not impressed. Overpriced for what you get. Our server was busy socializing with the other staff. It took over 20 min for my husband to get his first drink, and food took over an hour. I was hopeful we had found a new spot, but we most likely won’t return.

    We had a excellent time at this super interesting place , great wine flights with creative combos, excellent varied menu , we had the squash soup with oils , cream and pepitas , also a pear and walnut arugula salad both outstanding , we finished up with fingerlings potatoes in a mustard sauce , they also had aioli for them . For dessert a true crème brûlée orange …and a crazy good old school pie , cherry and blueberry , with a proper crust . We had a dessert wine flight including tokay, and an Italian style and a reisling late harvest …really oustanding . We were traveling but I imagine this would be a regular stop if we lived nearby , the bartender was very cool a deep knowledge of music , and funny , they offer a drink called werewolves of London wow was that tasty my wife had a sloop John b and she loved it …if you love a shared small plate dinner with great wines , excellent food , nice atmosphere , this is the perfect place and we felt it was also a good value , we had two separate flights of wine , two drinks , three small plate shared offerings , and we each had a dessert and it was just over 100 …how can you beat that for a great experience , if you know music sit at the bar , the gentleman there will keep you interested .
