Ground Kontrol is Portland's kick-butt classic arcade featuring over 100 classic video games and 40 pinball machines. Not only are there loads of video games they also feature a full-service bar all day long. Every game has a drink holder on it, allowing you to properly game.
Often there is a host DJ. Whenever there isn't a DJ they will have another form of entertainment like comedy shows, trivia nights, game tournaments, or Rock Band karaoke. Ground Kontrol is available for public and private event rentals. Visit on the second Thursday or the last Wednesday of the month for unlimited gameplay with a $7 cover.
