quick visit
Short social call
A quick visit is a brief stop somewhere, typically social or practical in nature, with the understanding that you won't stay long: I paid a quick visit to my parents on the way home, The doctor made a quick visit to check on the patient.
The phrase emphasizes brevity—you're there just long enough to accomplish a purpose or exchange pleasantries before moving on.
