    First time coming here since before they offered bbq. It was delicious and the portion sizes are enormous! I got spoiled on a beautiful day so I sat out on the patio. The ambiance was splendid. Come check it out. ASAP!

    Fun dog-friendly restaurant with good food! We love the show Breaking Bad and the character Hank so this was a no-brainer dining option. My adult daughter, mom, myself and our two dogs dined here on a Saturday night. We were very fortunate to park in the tiny lot but there was plenty of street parking and city lots nearby. The restaurant is located near the end or beginning (depending on which way you come in) of Old Town Temecula. It has both indoor and outdoor patio seating. Since we had our dogs, we sat outside with the majority of the patrons. Our wait to be seated was about 15 minutes but it was a comfortable wait as the area was active and people watching was fun. The patio was the perfect area to watch the vintage cars and animated crowds walk by. The menu was filled with several tasty BBQ options. As two of us are vegetarians, the choices were slightly limited but not an issue. While we waited to order, Elijah (greeter/seater) brought water for our dogs. Shortly thereafter, Jamie arrived to take our order. We ordered Pretzel Balls as an appetizer, 2 Jackfruit BBQ Sandwiches, a Philly Cheesesteak and 2 Dog Patties. Our food arrived quickly, was in good portion and delicious! Our pups loved their unseasoned patties. Service was outstanding. Both Elijah and Jamie were super friendly, patient and helpful. There were two restrooms; one for men and the other unisex. Prices were reasonable. Souvenir shirts were available for sale. I would definitely visit again.

    Swing Inn Cafe absolutely lives up to its name of "Best BBQ in Temecula". I just randomly stopped by at this cafe during transit and am I glad that I did! Located in the heart of old town Temecula, the cafe has been open since 1927 and continues to be a popular hang out spot for locals and travelers in the peaceful neighborhood. Their foods especially the BBQ are top quality, smoked for 4 - 12 hours depending on the meat: No wonder their BBQ is incredibly tender and fall off the bone. They serve the Breakfast and Lunch menu - 6 AM to 3 PM everyday, and Dinner menu items from 3 PM to 9 PM only from Wednesday through Sunday. The dishes that I had: Dino Beef Rib - colossal beef ribs with crispy peppered outer edge and a juicy, tender center. The portion is massive, enough for 2 people to share (but it's so good that you'd want it all to yourself). Brisket and Eggs - melt-in-your-mouth meat smoked for a whopping 12 hours! Served with 2 eggs cooked to your liking and a side of potatoes. The food quality and portions are amazing, but what makes Swing Inn Cafe special is the service they provide! The staff are genuinely the nicest people. They will frequently check in with you to make sure your experience is the best it could be. The restaurant was busy at the time I visited, but I had a wonderful conversation with the host and server while they were passing by. If you're driving up from San Diego or heading down from LA, please check out this gem of a cafe!
