Ground Kontrol is a video game/pinball and bar in Portland, Oregon, in the United States.
The arcade was originally created and opened by Betty Farrier, and Kneel Cohn of the bands Warshow Angels[4] and The Dead Stars on Hollywood.
During renovation, a kitchen and new seating were added, the restrooms were moved, and the decor took on a Tron-esque vibe.
[8] In April 2017, Ground Kontrol expanded into the former location of Backspace, renovating it to include a new bar area, several video screens and a connecting hallway.
[15] Ground Control won in the "Best Game Bar" category of Willamette Week's "Best of Portland Readers' Poll 2020".
