I'll be visiting my gf in downtown Portland for upcoming weekend. Can anyone recommend me a good pinball joint that are currently open that you can take your gf with?

No. Everything with any amount of pins requires a reservation and limited people. Some places even require a reservation for a specific machine, you will get a limited time slot if any availability is there.
Next Level pinball (outside Portland) might be different, I was txting Jordan there about hours, he had responded to that txt, then I asked about appointments and never got a response. After having the appointment issues with other locations I just guessed they were following the same principles.
I visited Portland about a month ago. Next Level was incredible. They were open but had every other machine turned off. In the city a lot was still closed. Ringler's Pub in the McMenamin's complex has six machines and was open and serving drinks.
Next Level is fully open now, every game is on. Plus they do tournaments on Friday night.
That is your best bet but it’s a drive.
Downtown is Ground Kontrol…it’s open but idk what the restrictions are.
Another vote for next level. Incredible place, people and pins!! And maybe 20 minutes from downtown Portland is all.

Next Level's machines are all on as of now.
Next level by a mile, worth the drive from downtown Portland. Huge impressive collection, and Jordan is great.
Quoted from Slugmeister:Curious if you've been to my favorite place recently.8 bit in Renton.
Yes, funny that you would ask, cuz I was there yesterday. First time going back there since covid. 8bit is open and looked like they were doing good.
Quoted from V4Vendetta:Thanks guys I'll definitely check out next level. any input on Ground Kontrol?
The relevant covid information is available on their website, sir.
