swing through
Stop in briefly
Swing through means to make a brief, often casual stop at a place while in transit or during a busy schedule: I'll swing through the office on my way home, She swung through town last week but couldn't stay long.
The phrase suggests a visit that's quick and incidental rather than the main destination—dropping by without lingering.
