This place is a hidden gem for group activities! I would totally recommend this for family outing, group and team building. Or just anyone loves pingpong and play some board game while waiting. Pingpong table booking is required, they are usually booked out during weekends. However pity to hear that they are only there for another couple of months longer only. The area will be transformed to building buildings or something like that. Hope the owner will keep the concept and find a new location nearby soon.

Friendly personnel, fun creative (colorful) and playful area. A fun way to take your team out for an out of the box kind of lunch! We had lunch while playing a fun game of ping pong during a workday. The menu offers a variety of options. Some ping pong tables are in a plastic bubble to protect you from cold and noises, other tables are simply out and available in the same area. Choose whatever works for you. I love the concept of lying one single 10,- euro fee to play and have lunch. Service Dine in Meal type Lunch
Super nice place, worth trying! Amazing design and we had much fun. You can play ping pong or also board games. Food was nice too, we had a very good hamburger. I’d say there is only 1 down side: getting there with car is pretty difficult, but going out is even more difficult!!! We left the place at 22.30 and the main entrance gate was closed, it took more than 20 min to find the way out, and we had to ask the staff twice. So I’d suggest to park the car in the Main Street and then walk!

Good place to hang out and have some good time playing ping pong after some food and drinks. They have a weird mix of food here - burgers to rendang to other sandwich dishes and other borrel dishes. We ordered the rendang, nachos and burgers. The portion of the rendang is tiny but they taste pretty good. I prob need to eat three portions to fill me up. For the ping pong table, you can either reserve it beforehand for yourselves, or play in the mixed tables with random people. If played with the strangers it's usually the around-the-table ping pong game. It's fun and it's a unique way to meet people if you looking for alternative way of clubbing.

Now, it is one thing to 'not be overly enthusiastic' while serving and another thing to make the guests feel uncomfortable with a frowning face while serving. Unfortunately what we experienced in De Ping Pong Club was the latter. The service was not satisfactory. We felt like we offended the waiting staff during giving our orders. At some point our order was waiting on the counter for more than 15 minutes to be served. In fact the ice in some of the glasses was long melted before the soda was served and the beer got already warm. In the photo you can see an example how it looked like when we just received the glass. On top of this, it was our friend's birthday and we were not allowed to cut the cake in the establishment. Don't get me wrong, we all had multiple drinks and dinner here approximately 300 euro, not just a cup of coffee. It made us really unhappy that we were not allowed to present our friend with his birthday cake. We understand that some days could be busy and exhausting but the way that we felt we were treated was really disappointing. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person €50–60
Went on a rainy afternoon in off peak hours so you only pay 5€ to play ping pong, so much fun. The place makes you feel like your in Berlin, very industrial and cool vibes. They also have plenty of board games and you get a nice cookie with your hot drink. Will definitely come back in the evening with friends.

Edit: gave it five stars four years ago, due to its specific atmosphere. While food has improved, now it's just a pub like another, with high costs and ridiculous price to play ping pong. Too bad because it used to be a very unique place. Not going back. Food: 3 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 2

Really nice place, very unique interior. However, the service could use quite some improvement. I reserved a table at the restaurant one week beforehand. When we were there, the waiter took us to the ping pong table. When we explained that we didn't want to play ping pong and just wanted a table at the restaurant(which was already reserved) the waiter didn't say anything and kind of left us there(?). Then, they came to us much later to ask if we would like to drink/eat something. We had to go to the bar to remind ourselves. Also, it was our friend's birthday and they did not let us cut the cake there. We already have lots of food and drinks there and enjoyed (that is where those two starts come from but if they would say we would be happily stay there even longer and recommend the place to our friends. I think they could be a bit more flexible with this. It was very disappointing to see such a lovely place not allowing us to have a birthday celebration.
