Swift Cafe in Leimert Park is a cozy counter-service spot where Chef Kyndra serves up vibrant, health-focused bowls, juicy burgers, and refreshing smoothies, all crafted with love and a touch of global flavor.
"This charming Leimert Park cafe is the place to be if you're looking for healthful, filling food in the neighborhood. The entire menu was created with the help of a nutritionist, but as iffy as that sounds, everything from their jerk chicken to their bison burger is packed with flavor. If you're vegan or vegetarian, you'll be very happy to know that they also have a top-notch chickpea curry bowl, sweet potato ravioli, and a bunch of other great plant-based options.
