Back2Earth

Back2Earth in Portland (OR) serves as a welcoming bar-cafe hub for the LGBTQ+ community and allies. Its atmosphere fuses earthy vibes with space-themed flair: a stunning vertical garden wall boasting around 200 plants, backlit wooden shelves, queer artwork, LED planetary orbs, and projections of Oregon landscapes, cephalopods, and cosmic scenes. Unique touches like a cherry disco ball, restored antique lamps, and an Earring Magic Ken doll add playful charm.

The menu features local beers, craft cocktails, and bar snacks, with daily rotating happy hour specials. Highlights include a packed event calendar: karaoke, drag shows, dance parties, open mics, game nights, dyke parties, and drag bingo. An arcade machine, board games, tabletop RPGs, cozy lounge seating, and top-tier audio-visual setup make it perfect for mingling, gaming, or dancing in an inclusive space.
