SPIN San Francisco

Pretty cool concept. They have a bunch of tables and a bunch of cool decorations. Great way to have som fun

Love this place! They got great ambience, even amazing food and fun vibe. It would be a perfect place for fun TT date or hangout with friends. The hummus and wings were delicious. Drinks were good too. Service is quick and pleasant.

We went to the spin to celebrate a family event. And it was really fun. I was really Blown Away by the atmosphere is very welcoming. The vibe was very cool. They had a really good ritual, thing with the bar set up with old-school speakers which were pretty awesome. The ping-pong table was amazing. We reserved a table and of time. So we had a group of six so we were able to get a premium package, which included, appetizers and pizza, and all-you-can-drink drinks which I a must-do for ping-pong. I would definitely go back more times love this place. Shout out to Kennedy and baby Drake.

Would Recommend. A corporate only kind of place with a great concept - food, drinks and pong. What a great combo! Atmosphere is good - food is mid. Drinks are mixed well and its all on the company anyway ;) Service on drinks is fast - they have a dedicated server ordering on a device. I don't think I would host here personally though. Follow me on IG :) @trebzheng

We came for a quick ping pong session, and overall, the table tennis experience was ok. But the services were disappointing. We informed the staff there were gum on the floor, the staff didn't do anything about it, just watched as we grabbed napkins and cleaned it up in front of him.

We were accidentally charged for some additional drinks and didn’t realize it until after the transaction was processed. When we notified the staff they gave us a full refund, which was extremely kind and above and beyond what was necessary. I’ll definitely be coming back.

Spin 📍 San Francisco 👀 The company was founded in 2009 by actress Susan Sarandon, in locations such as NYC, Boston, Chicago, Seattle, Toronto, Phil and Washington. A table will set you back around $50/ph. They serve American comfort food. Their menu is designed to be shareable and snackable that guests can enjoy and easily move between playing and eating. 💥 Very bright lighting in here, full of neons and overhead lighting. Graffiti on the walls give it that street style atmosphere but the luxury furnishings and chandeliers give it that upper class vibe. 💁🏼‍♀️ Staff here are super friendly and will play with you if you ask nicely. 🍸 Full bar available, cocktails, mocktails, wine and beer. 🍴 HOUSE FRIES – $8 za’atar, garlic aioli, harissa ketchup, basil aioli HOP POP CHICKEN – $13 hoppy beer brined crispy chicken, ginger buttermilk MARGHERITA FLATBREAD - $14 fresh mozzarella, bianco tomato, basil - I loved this one especially! PROSCUITTO FLATBREAD - $16 fresh mozzarella, chilli flakes, arugula, olive oil, pecorino cheese ✨ A fun night out!

Came to Spin for an event and Spin makes it in the top 10 places I’ve attended events at. Playing Pin-pop or rather table tennis was the highlight of being at Spin because it’s just a socially fun sport to play. Even if you haven’t played table tennis at all, it’s still cheerful to laugh at yourself missing balls, trying to do awful backhands and hitting a stranger with the ball. The food definitely matches up to the coolness of the place. The pizza, chips, beef sliders, etc. Everything just blends together at Spin, to give a guest the most invigorating time of their life. By the way, it might seem like a minor detail that could simply go unnoticed; but the bag storage gives one so much convenience, especially if you are someone like me - who loves caring a heavy backpack. Spin definitely makes it in the top 10 entertainment wonders of San Francisco 😉

I've been here a couple times (all for work) and always have had a blast. My most recent experience has been even better. The staff was very welcoming and accommodating to this season of life I'm currently in (mom) when I needed to store my milk in the fridge and also pump in privacy - I was greeted without hesitation. Thank you to the wonderful staff and for helping out this mama with no questions asked!

SPIN San Francisco totally exceeded my expectations. I wasn't sure what to expect from a place centered around ping pong, but it turned out to be the perfect mix of active, social, and laid-back fun. The vibe is energetic without being overwhelming--good music, great lighting, and a crowd that's there to have a good time. The ping pong tables are well-spaced and easy to reserve. Drinks were strong, the cocktail list was playful, and the food menu had more range than I expected. Service was on point too; staff were friendly and welcoming and made sure we were taken care of without hovering. The manager is also out on the floor, checking in on everyone which I think is great!

Great place to host a company event. Plenty of space to break out in groups to chat, lounge or play ping pong. The food was disappointing though. The staff was great. Getting people's drink quickly and they were quite strong.

How am I just visiting this place now? A friend from out of town loving games decided to book this place and it was so much fun! The tables are far enough from others so you can have feel a bit private and the food wasn't bad. The punch was a bit too sweet for me so I wouldn't get that again.

This place is a lot of fun. Clean & very well kept. We reserved a couple of tables for a few hours & had food as well. The chicken "nuggets" were strange, but actually tasted good. It was like the cut up skin-on chicken in bite-sized pieces & air fried them before coating them in something that tasted like cheese powder. Went well with the ranch they served. Pizza, fries & sliders were hits as well. Great place to spend a few hours.

Okurrrr let me tell you -- Spin in downtown SF was LIT for my birthdayyyy! Big shoutout to Zay and Nate, they held it DOWN like true champs. The drinks were flowing, the ping pong was poppin', and the vibes? Immaculate. We laughed, we smashed, we served up the drama on the tables honeyyy. Zay and Nate made sure we felt like VIP all night. Best birthday ever -- Spin is the place to be if you wanna party, play, and feel fabulous. Period!

Reservation was a breeze! Pricing is nominal for our group of 6 - flat rate versus based on size of party, and we had ample time to enjoy Uno, Jenga, Pong Arcade, and play Ping Pong with their unlimited ball buckets. We had two kids that were part of our group, ages 6 and 9, and they had a blast! When we went, it wasn't crowded likely due to start of the new year. Service was great, staff was friendly. Pizza and Fries orders were amazing. Cocktails we ordered were okay, and not very noteworthy.

We joined a private family event at Spin for 14 people 50/50 adults/kids there was so much space. We had the use of three tables and abundant seating. The food was ok. Pub snack foods were served. The kids enjoyed picking up the balls with the ball catcher about as much as playing ping pong.

We had a great experience! The manager, Nate, totally took care of us. It was a great vibe and awesome time. Thanks, Spin!

I came here for a private event. It's a fun venue with ping-pong tables and other games in the building. Overall, the food selection was extensive, and most of the dishes were great, considering that they prepared so many. The staff provided takeout boxes for the leftover food as well. Overall, a great experience.

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.

Came for a work event previously with a large group and honestly it was a lot of fun. The vibe was very chill easy to relax and have a conversation or if you wanted to you could play ping pong as well! Overall, would come again!

This is a good spot in Downtown San Francisco to enjoy a game night with friends. Went to a private event here and enjoyed the atmosphere and the great level of service. The food was good and the drinks were refreshing. Lots of space to lounge and play ping pong. Tables were turning at Spin. Good place to have fun. For the win , you got to make it happen at Spin.

I had a great time here when I celebrated my birthday last year. We invited family and friends, played ping pong, and enjoyed it even though some of us didn't know how to play. There was a lot of fun and laughter. The food was great, and the package we got was reasonably priced. The ambiance and decor were amazing. They have a tub full of ping pong balls where you can take pictures, and a photo booth for more fun photos. The service was good, and I highly recommend this place for anyone looking to have fun.

If you haven't been able to visit yet, it's about time you took a spin with SPIN! I was the lucky +1 for a corporate event held here and I was impressed! The space was trendy and spacious, perfect for a gathering of the scale we were having. The food was also pretty tasty as well, although I am unclear if this was outside catering or SPIN's own. When the conversation hits a lull with colleagues, there was the option for fun with ping pong, arcade games, and more! My only complaint was I wish there were more seating amenable to eating - it was a little clumsy to try to eat off a bar table. Otherwise, I'd be back here for more ping pong and good times!

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!

Located right across from the Moscone Convention center. Pros: fun place, great cocktails, beautifully designed. Cons: They never pick up the phone, and no one responded to our request to book two tables. Eventually, two of our party just booked through their website.

Went here for a reserved party and the front greeter was nice, but spoke very low and we could barely hear her. Our food didn't come out until 30 minutes later (which was okay because we weren't hungry yet, but if guests were hungry then that would have been a long wait in my opinion). The servers were super nice and got our drinks and checked on us consistently. When the food came out, everything was pretty good except for the Mac & cheese - it was a bit dry! The only photo that I don't have on here is the fingerlicking potatoes, those were really good! They had sparkling and still water for us to serve ourselves. I wish there were high circle tables because it was a little bit awkward sitting at a high bar table facing the wall, when you're trying to interact with people. Besides that, the place is super fun to play ping pong, and the restrooms were super clean. I would come back here again!

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.

Great service, wonderful staff, and an awesome time! Food was also delicious. Very accommodating and flexible.

Super disappointed after spending $278 for four of us to play ping pong for an hour on one table. The tortilla chips were stale on the $21 nachos, the beef a remarkable amount of fat left on it, and it had no beans and not enough cheese. The G&T I had was disgusting (poor quality tonic from their soda gun it seems) so I switched to a Negroni. I've had a much better time when our firm paid for events here, but paying out of pocket is a bit too dear for my taste. Also, paying $46 at the Museum Parc parking garage across the street for 2 hours and 16 minutes was absolute highway robbery. We did appreciate all the signs warning us to remove all items from your car to "prevent break-ins" because hiring security I imagine would be cost-prohibitive.

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!

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.

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.

Had an amazing time here. We were accidentally charged for some additional drinks and didn't realize it until after the transaction was processed. When we notified the staff they gave us a full refund of the entire bill and wouldn't accept any payment, which was extremely kind and above and beyond what was necessary. I'll definitely be coming back.

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.

Thank you SPIN for inviting my friends and I back! I reserved a time through Meg, the Spin GM, for 9p on a Saturday for 5 people. We arrived a few minutes late and were brought to our table quickly. We were placed at a nice central ping pong table near the windows, and had a large table behind us for food and drinks. SPIN was quite busy and all the surrounding tables were booked up with groups of 2+ playing. Our server, Gloria, came to take our order and we each ordered a round of drinks, fries, and nachos. Most of our group was vegetarian, so we requested the nachos without meat. They came out with meat, and Gloria was quick to replace them. (Note: the regular nachos come with a heaping amount of pork). Overall fun atmosphere, quick service, and friendly staff (thank you Gloria!). An hour goes by FAST. Would recommend booking for longer than an hour if you're planning to grab some bites while playing.

Kinda pricey bc you pay $60/table on top of drinks, but it's a cool concept. Drink and play ping pong -- great for bigger groups and you don't have to worry about picking up all your ping pong balls. Bring more people and take turns playing so it's more affordable, bc it definitely isn't a good place for a date -- it'd get expensive real quick.

Second time trying to beat my son but he won again . The place nice -up beat -clean - positive atmosphere .

This review was from a surprise party that I threw here at the end of last year. I feel awful posting about it so late, but still felt inclined to because of the wonderful service from one of their stellar employees, Liona. She was super customer-oriented, accomodating all my needs and requests with enthusiasm. She followed up often and had great communication, which I appreciated, because I'm very focused on the big to the smallest of details for the events I plan. The venue surpassed my expectations. The photos really don't do it justice; it's such a fun, modern and inviting space with really cool furniture. Also, the bar is beautiful!! I would recommend this spot for a chill night out as well. Ping pong is still fun and entertaining for all ages! All staff (bartenders and servers) were very friendly, and Liona was there before the party and the rest of the night to make sure everything was running smoothly. She was so professional and easy to work with - the 5 stars go to her!

This place was cool. I was here for a private event and the event space was nice with a couple ping pong tables, sofas, and private bar. The area was clean and the staff were nice. Music was good and not too loud. Limited drinks could be made at the private bar, but the main bar was able to make more drinks. I would go back.

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..

After trying to secure a spot to drink and play as they advertised with NO restrictions...the hostess said we can pay for one hour but only get 30 minutes. As my BF and I tried to pay, meaning o snagged his wallet, I took the fee she asked for and put it on the table...she REFUSED to take our money. The fact that I fight with my BF about who is paying is a silly thing we do bc we try to spoil one another. Her RUDE DISRESPECT denying our service was uncalled for. She didn't read the room to see our love was trying to win and beat each other to pay. She was obviously trying to be lazy and not take another party. I am a small business owner, if ANY of my staff tried to deny customers willing to pay, I would fire them. This is only the second time I've tried to visit here and the first they claimed too many parties might take up the last 3 hours. Please train your staff, that person is costing you money that no SF business can afford to lose.

Big fan of Spin. Great service and staff. Loved the drinks (the fishhouse with black tea was my favorite by far). Struggling with 'peak' laziness (you never have to suffer the indignity of (shudder) reaching down and picking up a ping pong ball from the floor...I felt guilty). Burger was delicious. All around 5/5. But sadly their "dynamic pricing" and happy hour cost is so steep the place almost emptied out (except for a large reserved party area).

The vibes are mad good, and the alcohol is even better! Highly recommend for ping pong and drinks with friends. Bartenders are so nice and welcoming

Great bar and great place. Love Nate the bartender!!! Played a lot of table tennis here and it was great to!

Arrived at this team bonding event on a Wednesday night around 5:30 pm! Absolutely loved this place that a great selection of food, drinks, and activities. Two floors equipped with games from 7 ping pong tables, arcade games, 2 bars, and lots of seating for your groups or large parties. You don't have to worry about the stray ping pong balls since the staff will pick them up. The staff are super interactive with their guests and providing great customer service. They had served straight from the kitchen walking to guests all across the venue and serving appetizers from samosas, mini hot dogs, mini shrimp tacos, falafels, and chicken waffle skewers. Their buffet had chips and dips, pizza, wontons, and egg rolls. A nice spread of food that pairs well with their alcoholic drinks. I loved how the space allows guests to relax and bond in plush seating and brings out their competitive side ping pong. Awesome venue that I would visit again!

Love the daytime special rates. Good fun for everyone even if you don't think you know how to play

Fantastic event venue. I'm so grateful that we have SPIN in San Francisco. Surprisingly, the food is good! The beats are so much fun. The space is modern and comfortable. Service was awesome, especially the ping pong ball cleanup crew. Absolutely loved it as a birthday party venue for tweens.

I have used Party Waiters for several events and dinners and they have always exceeded my expectations. They are prompt, highly professional, and provide excellent service. Each staff member that we have dealt with has been superb and a true professional. I'd highly recommend.

This place was a lot of fun! They were also spinning some good y2k music and the place is very clean and spacious. The drinks are tiki themed and our favorite was honestly the Painkiller!

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. ‍

Recently went to this location for a birthday party. It was an incredible experience! Service, ambiance and food were all top notch. Great for ping pong pros and novices alike. Rates are higher on the weekends but worth it.

Thank you Kaleb and Liz for such an amazing time! They really made our time special and made us want to come back!!

been to spin many times and never had any complaints - I do recognize that spin has been on the downfall recently. they don't hold any Halloween, new years, Super Bowl parties or themed nights. met the gm, Nate, a while ago and can see why spin is flopping. he's pretty condescending and unprofessional and just got a weird energy to him. really hope for spin to up their A-game soon because their space is super cool.

Arrived around 7 for our reservation for ping pong and service was super quick and easy. We ordered food and drinks and both came out very quickly. Masks and vaccination are unfortunately not required and both staff and patrons were maskless so if that is something you're worried about, be warned. Food: 4/5 We ordered the Mediterranean Sampler and the Nachos. Both came out in a timely fashion but were pretty cold when they came out. However I am willing to overlook this because, considering this is a bar with activities, the food was DELICIOUS. The hummus was nice and creamy and smooth, brussel sprouts were the perfect balance of crispy and tender, and the nachos had the perfect ratio of toppings and cheese to chips. Not to mention, the portions are HUGE. We ordered these two plates for just two people and practically had to take the entire nacho platter home and we were struggling to finish the Mediterranean sampler. Drinks: 5/5 All the cocktails that I had were absolutely amazing. Their signature cocktails were very yummy and definitely worth a try! They're unique and refreshing. They also have a full bar so you can order any other drink your heart desires! I had a delicious amaretto sour and when I went up to get another, the bartender asked if he could make me a special drink. This is where the real star of the show comes in. Our bartender, Carlos, was so sweet and made me a special drink that he concocted based off of my tastes from the previous drinks I ordered. He stayed to have a nice little chat with us because service was slowing down a bit and he was so friendly! Overall I will definitely come back for the drinks alone! I docked one star because the food came out somewhat cold and our server seemed to have taken his lunch break in the middle of our meal so he wasn't around much when we needed more drinks and such but it wasn't too much of a problem. Overall I would definitely recommend coming here for food, drinks, and entertainment all in one! I for one will definitely be back!

They pressured my wife to buy a $3,000 "package deal" when all she wanted was to rent a three tables for my 60th birthday party. Insane. The people she talked to on multiple occasions there at Spin would not allow her to book 3 tables for our party of 13 for my 60th without her purchasing a $3000 corporate package including food and drinks. (Side note: the day we went there it wasn't even close to busy.. lots of open tables - yet they were chasing away good business... hmm) Tables are $60 an hour. All she wanted was 3 tables and we would grab food or drinks as we needed. They said no way. We will not let you do that you need to buy a corporate package deal including food and drinks for your group. $3000 or no forget it. She told them "we are not a business, it's a family celebrating a 60th bday party and we are eating and drinking at places all day and don't need a ton of prepaid food and drinks" They said no, can't help you then. In the end she got crafty and booked three different reservations under 3 names online and we had a fun time. Strange thing is after pressing her so hard for a $3000 reservation they never had a server come around to take our drink orders but once. My wife had to go to the bar herself and ask for someone to help us. The bartender tried to find her a server and there was a lot of confusion and finally someone helped her. Twice this happened. This was some of the worst customer service and policy I've seen. In fairness the people who were working there that day were all nice. No complaints on them they were great (aside from missing server) We had a great day in the end - but the people at Spin my wife spoke to on numerous occasions made it impossible for her to simply book 3 tables for our group to have fun there. I'm assuming this business will go under because it wasn't crowded at all on Saturday afternoon - perhaps the crazy service policies and mismanagement at the top are responsible. I don't flame places normally on Yelp. But this was was well deserved.

Wondering why it took me so long to come to Spin! Super fun. A great activity to do with friends and family. Also a fun 49ers fan crowd watching the game on the big screen. Music was fantastic! They had such a great vibe and people were friendly. Nice diverse crowd. Clean, food is good, drinks are good. You really can't go wrong. I definitely will be back!
