SPIN San Francisco

We came here for a team offsite after work. The space had a cool, funky vibe.
They had a nice menu and offering of cocktails and beer. The food was tasty and they had some interesting Asian fusion type items.
We got the margherita and pepperoni pizzas, Mediterranean sampler, nachos, and Korean fries. We liked the margherita pizza and Korean fries the best.
Everyone had a really fun time and worked up a sweat! Great place for a team or company outing.

I recently visited Spin with a group of 11 friends (for a birthday), expecting a fun evening of ping pong and food. Unfortunately, the experience didn't live up to our expectations.

Our server was excellent--friendly and attentive throughout the night. However, the hospitality stopped there. The hostess was notably rude from the get-go, which immediately set a disappointing tone for our visit. Things got more frustrating at the end of the evening. Although we were 11 people, the hostess gave out a total of 15 wristbands (four to people that weren't in our party) and incorrectly charged us for 15 people. When we pointed out the error, an event coordinator threatened us and said "You either pay for 15 people or you're dining and dashing." First off, we never said we weren't paying. We just weren't paying for the hostess's mistake. Secondly, the system they use to give out wristbands is a joke, there's no confirmation, no checks or anything. So basically with their logic, if they mess up, they don't want to assume responsibility and they put it on the guests to pay for their hostess's mistake. And third, following the threat, he lied and said there was apparently no way to correct their billing mistake in their system. He (or anyone else) didn't even come back to apologize after someone had corrected the bill. Absolute trash service and honestly enough to put me off from ever coming back, even after having been there several times to celebrate birthdays and company events.

Additionally, the food was just mediocre and took an unusually long time to be served--over two hours with minimal communication about the delay. Angelina I believe did extend us because of the issue until their closing time (11PM), but then the hostess tried to kick us out early by placing the "you have 10 minute signs on our table" at 10:20PM, which speaks to the lack of communication among the staff.

In all, while our server did a great job, the issues with the hostess and the event coordinator guy, lack of communication, billing, and service speed significantly marred our experience at Spin. I wanted to love this place, but I don't want to return or recommend it without some serious changes. Especially when they tried to scam us out of $240 for people that were never in our party or authorized by us to receive wrist bands.

They said someone from their team is reaching out but never did. ‍

Came here for an event after a conference. I've never been to a ping pong bar before! How fun and how fitting as I , as a patient, feel like a ping pong ball since my cancer recovery. I was there for a stomach cancer event

Lots of space. Beware of ping pong balls at your feet or near your face. Good vibe. Lots of space. I enjoyed our apps. Great service. They took good care of us. The chicken and waffle skewers were my favorite. Also good pizza!

Good, clean, frictionless fun for a week night.
Staff were top notch all around and thier friendly approach elevated the experience. Check-in host, table service, and 'Spin coach' were all attentive and welcoming. $50+ for ping pong seems steep, but the team made it easy for us to have a good time.

Update after event: After the initial hiccup with calling them to book the party, everything went smoothly afterwards. The rep that helped me put the contract together was quick to respond and the interactions with the staff on site was great.

I actually really enjoyed the space here, so open and such a fun vibe. For a private party for 30 they blocked off a decent space for us with 2 ping pong tables, 8 paddles and unlimited ping pong balls. Drinks were good and food was good overall. In addition to some of the passes items and set appetizer that came with the package, we added on some sliders which I thought was a good idea is you want to have something more filling, but honestly the items that came with the package was A LOT already.

Initially my team wasn't loving the ping pong idea but I feel like it's something that you can just pick up and have fun with and in the end it seemed like everyone had a good time. Highly recommend for large parties. Thanks. Spin SF!

We made a reservation for 8:45pm on a Friday night online! It's $59/hr per table for 1 hour of playtime on Fridays and 21+ only past 9pm. The interior was clean, spacious and filled with fun games like a photo booth and a few arcade games. There's also large sofas and ample seating for larger parties to hang out when they aren't playing at the table.

Our experience here was definitely a 10/10 despite some issues at the start. When we arrived and checked in at the front desk, they seemed confused and couldn't find our reservation. Turns out their system had glitched and we were overlapped with another party. The manager swiftly dealt with the issue and we were very quickly given another table and a round of free vodka shots! Overall the issue was resolved in 15 minutes, which we didn't really mind waiting.

Each table comes with UNLIMITED PING PONG BALLS and they PICK UP THE BALLS FOR YOU!! Just be careful when you're walking around for loose ping pong balls LOL. They also have a professional ping pong player who you can challenge. She created a little goal out of wooden bricks and if you can serve the ping pong ball into the goal within 5 tries, you get a free drink! She also rewarded us with a 30 minutes free play card for our next visit.

Overall I would most definitely return! Customer service was great and the venue was beautiful.

Good place for a team outing. Specially when you are into ping pong. You will get exclusive team places and play with your colleagues. I had some interesting Mediterranean food and beer and wine to drink..

I visited this place for a company off-site event, and it was quite an interesting experience. They gave us a corner of the venue, and it turned out we were sharing the space with several different groups. They had just four tables set up for ping pong, which felt a bit awkward considering there were quite a few people. However, I think this might have been due to how my company booked the space, and not anything wrong with Spin.

On the plus side, the staff was helpful; they went around collecting ping pong balls for us and had buckets filled with them, which made the games run smoothly. As for the food, it was set up on tables on the side and consisted mainly of appetizers like spring rolls and flatbread pizzas. Staff members also circulated with some snacks and frequently checked if we needed anything. The food was decent, nothing too special but nothing bad either.

Overall, it was a decent experience, and I wonder what it's like on a typical day without these corporate events. Personally, I'm not really into ping pong, but I can see this place being a good spot for a small hangout or party if you enjoy it.

I had a great time here with my friend. Place was spacious and staffs were nice.

Got the nachos and tacos to snack on. I didn't tried the tacos so I dunno but I can tell you that the nachos was one of the best I had in a long time. The meat was so flavorful and juicy. The chips were crunchy. It just needed more cheese. It was all at the bottom..maybe it was a way so that the chip won't get soggy and taste stale. We requested for sour cream and was given a good amount. It was so good altogether.

There were staffs going around picking up the balls and refilled the buckets so there would be enough balls to play which was nice. Picking up the balls on our own would be very tiring because the ball can land anywhere. Wouldn't want to interrupt other players by trying to pick up balls.

Hand sanitizers avail at almost every table.

A bit on the pricey side for ping pong. Foods were also on the pricey side.

Parking structure avail with a fee.

Ping Pong, TVs, Music, and Art, are the first things that come to mind when I think of Spin SF.

I have been here twice.

Once to play ping pong with a friend for 30-60 mins for $30. Not including, drinks.

The second time for a niner watch party.

In addition, they offer & specialize in drinks, parties, and food. Sometimes partnered with other local food companies, DJ, Hosts.

Be prepared for ping pongs rolling around you, and staff picking them up with long sticks.

Large, comfortable, lively, and well lit vibe.
