    My friend had been trying to get me to play pickleball with him for months. I decided to bite the bullet and go out with him to play a few rounds. We went to DinkSF and I had an amazing experience. I'm glad my first time was with this venue and now I'm on Amazon looking at pickleball equipment to purchase. I would probably be in better shape if I didn't ignore my friend's requests to play with him for so many months. The staff is incredibly friendly and the courts are well-maintained. Highly recommended!

    Upper level court. 1 of 2 courts. All court surfaces are made of plastic tiles.

    Friendly staff and very cool building! I decided not to play due to the court surface is plastic tiles. The tile are made from basketball and pickleball but the bounce isn't true for pickleball. In my experience the ball doesn't bounce correctly if it lands were the tiles connect sometimes. At the time of this post the lighting was poor. (I brighten the photos to show more details) I was told more lights will be added in the future. Could be suitable for beginners to learn the game but I don't recommend it for advance beginners or advance players.

    Although it is now closed, I have fond memories of these courts. The only downside was that there…read moreis no restroom, the nearest one used to be at the Safeway but that is now gone too. The courts themselves are nice but the nets weren't put together properly and sometimes need adjusting, or creative ways to fix them. Parking is pretty easy in the area and food choices in the area are good too.

    Clean and colorful pickleball courts reservable for $6 every half hour, super easy to book online,…read moreunlike other parks and pickleball courts in the city that are seemingly impossible to find an available slot due to popularity. We planned to play this past Sunday, and everything went smoothly. Communication was detailed clearly via email, parking was even easy to find the day of according to their instructions, and we enjoyed the carefree atmosphere the entire time we were there (fairly private and quiet since there are only two pickleball courts on site). Only problem was that I never received the gate code to the courts neither via email nor text message... so yeah that would have been a problem if someone didn't open it from the inside at my reservation time. I emailed them about this later, and they were apologetic about the mishap and quick to give me a refund. I appreciate their attention to the matter and effort to make things right.

    Five stars, but with a big asterisk. Playing pickleball at…read moreGoldman on a sunny afternoon is one of my favorite things about living in SF. Beautiful facilities. Staff is always friendly and helpful. I only play pickleball here so can't speak to the tennis side of things, but the pickleball experience is top notch. Shout-out to Joel if you're taking lessons. Patient, clear, actually makes you better. Try to get him if you can. If you are a complete newbie, a clinic or group class is helpful. Beyond that, I think they are a bit overpriced for what you get. Instructors are good but with that many people on a court, you don't get individual attention. They recently started offering smaller-group lessons which seems like a better format. Now the asterisk. Reservations are basically impossible. Booking opens at 12:30pm and courts are gone in, not an exaggeration, one second. Again, I'm not exaggerating. And even if you click at exactly 12:30:00, you still might not get one. I've also heard the owners aren't fans of pickleball and aren't planning to add more courts, which if true is a bummer because the demand is obviously there. Honestly the reservation thing is so bad I went back and forth on whether this should be four stars. But the place itself is so great, maybe it's just a victim of its own success. If you CAN get a reservation, it's unbeatable.

The grip size I wanted was not available but the front desk sourced it immediately and they strung it for free if you provide the strings. The string job was nice, tension felt right and it was done fast. Very nice club with employees who know tennis.
