Book Half an Hour of Ping Pong and Your Phone Opens the Door
Reserve a table, tap the booking at the door, and play on a floor where paddles and balls are already waiting.
🏓 How a booking works
There is no front desk. The PingPod app is the key, tap it, and the door at 40 and 42 Allen St. opens. It spans two floors.
Three open tables, one private pod, one robot table. Half hour blocks, paddles and balls included. Open pods hold four, and you can add up to two extra guests when you book, for a small fee. Want the robot? Email the pod ahead to set it up.
An open table runs $24 per half hour, $48 an hour. Four players make that $12 a person, and the app shows the rate before you pay.
Open pod hours run 6 a.m. to 3 a.m. daily, the private room around the clock. Take the F to East Broadway or the B/D to Grand Street, a short walk. Cancel 24 hours out for free. Closer in, it is $5 per reserved hour, and inside two hours only that $5 returns as PingPod credit. If your slot is taken, the app lists other pods, and the hours after 10 p.m. are easiest.
