Ping pong + good eats + booze + fun ambiance = good times. I booked 2 tables in the back for my husband's 30th birthday party. The official party area was booked, but the space we had was great as it was separate from the main large area and located close to benches (good for coats/purses). But most importantly it was close to the bar, which meant that guests wouldn't be gone for too long or linger far from the group and break up the good vibe. Our group had 20 people of very different ages, backgrounds and tastes, and everyone had fun. Some of our guests ordered food, some got their drink on at the bar, some chatted at tables, and most played ping pong. The staff were very friendly when booking the reservation and throughout the night. Just a heads up that SPiN is very loud (it's all hard surfaces, which doesn't help the acoustics). I suggest booking well in advance (i.e. several weeks) if reserving for a Thurs-Sat. Also, please be forewarned that they are VERY SERIOUS about showing up on time and leaving on time as they accommodate back-to-back reservations.
