We played table tennis recently at PingPod Chicago. It is a great place to play table tennis. The owner greeted us, he was very nice and clearly explained all the features of the tables such as score keeping and recording. I definitely recommend the place.

Great place! Friendly people with all skill levels to play against. Plenty of balls provided. Don’t miss the “Weekday Fun Day” event in the PingPod app — an awesome way for first-timers in Chicago to meet players and enjoy the game!

This is my top 1 favorite place in Chicago as I love playing table tennis. Compared to other table tennis club, this place is clean, bright and supported by scoring system. I found the community here where ppl all love table tennis and end up being great friends. I started my table tennis journey here with my best coach Brian, who is very great at technique. And coach Palina and Sean also provided great tips during open play! Manager Jorge is a very nice person who offers free clinic to our members every Saturday, and some good advice on technique whenever you need.q

My workmates and I really love to bounce ideas off of each other…so I was so happy to share this bouncing activity with them!!! Go team bonding! I loved the techie vibe everything had from start to finish. It was super easy to book our reservation on their app. Upon arrival, I pulled up my reservation and unlocked the door with the app. We reserved a private pod for our group so we could freely cackle our hearts content. A coach was available to show us how to get started and all the major bells and whistles for the private pod. There was a couch, paddles, balls, we could adjust the lighting, Bluetooth our phones in to play our own music. The table had a button on each side to help with keeping score on a wall mounted tablet. Hooray for not having to keep score in my head! The tablet had a few different ways to play games, singles, doubles, and free play. With a new account you get 5 replays…since the place has 24/7 surveillance…you can press a button on the tablet to capture the last 20 seconds right before you press the button and then it gets sent to your app and email so you can share all the bouncing fun! After your first 5 replays, the cost is 50 cents for addition

What a spectacular experience at PingPod ! Everything is automated. Loved how the technology has been leveraged to provide a very creative concept. No human interaction to get in, play or get out. It was super easy to make an account on the website. Once you sign up and reserve a time and table, you can just show up and open the door by tapping the button on the reservation through their web app. There's no staff to explain/show the facility; it is not the norm. So when you go, login to your account and follow the directions. They had a charging station, vending machine with healthy drink/food selections. The facility was very clean and neat. The overall design was modern and airy. No wear/tear on the tables, paddles, everything was pretty new. Your play is recorded and you can watch your shots and save it as well. My favorite part was the digital scoring system. They have a button on both sides under the table and a screen beside it to track the scores. My friends and I didn't even realize how 1 hour passed by so quickly, playing the doubles. I would recommend booking for at least an hour. My friends also enjoyed the picking up the balls using the net after the game. Overall,
