Heading to Portland, Oregon what is can't miss?

if you're at all into books Powell's is not far from GK and definitely worth a stop. one of the largest if not the largest used book store in the U.S., with a decent selection of "new" (mostly remainders) thrown in.
 
Not arcade related, but Voodoo Donuts is a must :)

^^^^^THIS^^^^^

I recommend the Bacon Maple bar... and a pint of milk.

IT'S A WHOLE CITY BLOCK!

Love that place.
 
Acropolis Steakhouse! Love this place. You can order a nice sirloin steak, baked potato, and eat it right on the front of the stage and watch fully nude woman twirl the beef curtain around.

Love the strip clubs in Oregon!

I've never been to a strip club in another state.

Are you telling me that strippers in other states... have to wear panties?

YOU MIGHT AS WELL GO TO CHUCK E. CHEESE
 
HA in California if they serve alcohol, panties have to stay on. Plus normally a 20 dollar door cover. the strip clubs in Oregon are superior to Ca.
 
Like pins? Check out portlandpinballmap You can find just about all the most popular machines to play.

How long are you in town for? What part of town? Like to drink? Microbrews? microdistelleries? Eat food? What kind? Want a hang in a swanky joint with a view of the city, or in a low brow dive rubbing elbows with hipsters and homleless?

PM me if you want some specifics..born and raised here. 38 years.
 
Escape From New York Pizza is near Ground Kontrol. Acropolis has the best steak dinner on the planet.

Im in town for Fred Fest at the Hair of the Dog brewery. My primary purpose in town is to drink Micobrews. I definitely would like to check out some pins. I have been thinking of buying my first pin and it would be nice to try out some pins.

I'm staying with a local in the northeast section of town.

Thanks everybody for the suggestions.
 
I was only in Portland for one day but my friends took me to Ground Kontrol, Voodoo Donuts, and the Acropolis. We also went to a place with the best jukebox and the breakfast burger ever called "My Father's Place". Highly recommended.

The Acropolis did have good steak. And it was cheap! The girls kept stealing fries off my plate though which started to get old after the first 5 times. I don't care how hot and naked you are keep your damn hands outta my plate!
There were people picking up take out from the club. Why would you get food to go from a strip club?

So you can eat ALL the fries! :D
 
i forgot about "My Father's Place" (on Grand, across the river from downtown.) great cheap greasy-spoon/diner/bar, best for breakfast. they have a couple of pins and arcade games stuffed somewhere in the back but nothing i was interested in.

I got the "magnum" as a gift years ago. It was the only time one beer got me blotto'd. :D
 
I was actually about to post the same thread... I think I'm off to Ground Kontrol this afternoon--I had forgotten this was up here.
 
Get in touch with Rikitki - he lives around the 82nd part of town which I'm sure by now he knows which hooker/s to recommend heh heh.
I heard he's also doing full body stenciling :eek: ...... ok well that part was a lie
