loaded nachos!

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.

Come play with me

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.

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.

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.

I thought this was cute!

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!

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.

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!

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

Sour cream

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.

I liked the cardamom in the Beauty Mark as well that my partner ordered. We ordered shishito peppers and mushroom bahn mi sliders. The mushroom bahn mi sliders were amazing - the quality fillings and taste of the soft bun - I was unexpectedly hit with a bite of spice from maybe jalapeño seeds left but didn't sour my experience. The shishito peppers ended up being extremely spicy as well, those are usually just a few spicy and not the majority. The roasted lemon and salt was a wonderful combo but just too spicy to eat. However, the server very kindly removed it from our bill without us asking. We order the crostini because we were still hungry and that was an absolute hit. Delicious med-soft crostini with luscious berries and sweet honey. I didn't care my hands got sticky as it was soooo good! Great experience, I would be weary if the peppers as I'm a bit spice-intolerant but everything else was spot-on.

I think in many ways, Blind Pig just fell a little flat. I would like to say that the service here was amazing. A bartender who sat with you to talk about the menu, the process, and your experience very passionately and intently.  However, I think that the bar program is a little unrefined. Every drink had 10,000 ingredients, and most of them did not work together. If the drink did work together, you just tasted nothing because everything blended together and you couldn't taste any special or fun ingredients.  Unfortunately, I don't think this spot is worth looking for.

Seeing that it was named one of the top 50 best bars in North American, we had to check it out! We came in a Thursday night in mid-April about 9:45 PM. They have security outside thar checks IDs & also manages the queue in case the bar gets too crowded. We had no issues getting in, but there were zero indoor seats available - both the bar & table seating. Thankfully, they have a really cozy & well-lit patio area. The waitress let us know that even the outdoor patio has table-side service, so we made ourselves comfortable on the outdoor bench & within seconds she had brought us waters & cocktail menus. Weather outside was really nice, so I'm glad we actually sat outside. Each cocktail is $20, which definitely is a little steep, but I think the creativity, quality, & prestige of being named a top 50 bar supports the price. Each part of the menu is organized by liquor ie whiskey, vodka, brandy, gin, etc. We tried 4 drinks total. I only took menu photos of the pages we ordered from but they have a lot more selections. We ordered the Kung Fu Pandan, Silky Street, Rice Rice Baby, & Tropical Gangsta. We had some favorites over others, but all were very well crafted! The drinks came out pretty quickly considering how busy it was. The only hiccup was our final drink took quite a while. Turns out the ticket machine malfunctioned & deleted orders put in & caused a back-up. The waitress was so apologetic & ended up comp-ing 2 drinks, which she definitely didn't have to but it speaks volumes to the high standards they hold themselves to & their customer service. Overall, highly highly recommend checking this place out for a fun night out or post-dinner treat! Glad we made the decision to stop in!
