Soda shop Swig’s much-awaited arrival in Johnson County is officially here.
The “dirty soda” chain unveiled its new Mission location to its first long lines of eager customers over the weekend.
It comes as the first of multiple Johnson County locations planned for the Utah-based chain.
Swig opened at 5959 Barkley St.
- The drive-thru shop occupies a space on the northeast corner of Barkley Street and Martway Street, near The Other Place and Hy-Vee.

Swig serves “dirty” sodas and other sweet treats
- Swig is primarily known for its “dirty sodas” which are flavored with different syrups and creams.
- Some of Swig’s flavor combinations include the “Texas tab” (Dr Pepper, vanilla and coconut cream) and the “Beach Babe” (Mountain Dew, raspberry, peach and vanilla cream).
- In addition to soda, Swig also serves “Revivers” (flavored energy drinks), “Refreshers” (flavored waters) and flavored hot chocolate.
- Outside of drinks, Swig’s menu also features treats like sugar cookies and pretzel bites.
More Swig locations are in the works
- The Utah-based chain also aims to open two more locations in Overland Park later this year.
