Actor Dean Norris starts serving ‘Breaking Bad’ takeout in Temecula

Actor Dean Norris, who owns one of the oldest diners in Southern California, has expanded its business to include takeout barbecue and T-shirts.

The restaurant is the Swing Inn Cafe & BBQ in Old Town Temecula, originally opened in 1927.

Norris and local dignitaries held a ribbon-cutting ceremony for the shop on Friday, Sept. 27.

Norris and his wife Bridget are longtime Temecula residents. After they acquired the restaurant in 2022, they set about expanding the business.
