We were traveling through the Bloomington/Normal area on our way to a family occasion. We asked our hotel clerk for restaurant recommendations. When they mentioned Swingers, I asked whether this establishment catered to younger couples. Actually, the name refers to the related golf driving range. The decor is wonderful, the food is very good and very reasonably priced, and the... More

Best steaks in Normal along with the best atmosphere. Service is always great. They also have an excellent line of desserts and after dinner drinks. The menu changes periodically and the addtions are always good.

Great ambiance. Looks nice. Food was ok. I ordered steak with side salad and baked. Steak was very fatty. Baked potatoe was cold. The meal came with cold dinner rolls. My server Erin was extremely pretty with a great attitude and personality. I'd go back again just for her. This place had flat screens at each table on the bar.... More

Awesome food, highly recommend the short ribs, service was great, Jill was awesome, live music was fun.

Everything was absolutely delicious! We... More

The food was exceptionally good. The service was excellent. There was a sizable crowd that seemed primarily local and very peaceful. The specials included blackened snapper... More

Swingers Grille is a great restaurant/bar/grille. The food is excellent, the service is great. It is more upscale than most think. They have great specials -- we love the Wine down Wednesday special where all wine is 1/2 price. Great live music too. My favorite is the darker atmosphere inside.

As another poster mentioned, don't let the name of this establishment fool you. It's somewhat upscale and not at all like the sports bar we imagined it to be. We visited Swingers in October, 2012 on a Saturday night and it was very busy. They even have live music and OTB in another area of the establishment. We did not... More
