Description . Located on the planet Coruscant , the capital world of the Galactic Republic , 79 ' s was a cantina that operated in the ecumenopolis ' entertainment district . At least two stories in height , 79 ' s was nestled in one of Coruscant ' s enormous skyscrapers ; the bar ' s main entrance was positioned at one of the building ' s corners , trimmed by wide walkways and supporting curbside traffic from speeders and air taxis . Two sets of sliding doors allowed customers entrance to 79 ' s , above which the bar boasted a large , brightly lit sign displaying the establishment ' s name . Inside , an assortment of tables and booths were arranged for patrons to sit at across two floors . In the center of the first floor , a long , oval bar tended by droid servers offered various drinks , and the cantina employed several BD - 3000 luxury droids as waitresses . 79 ' s maintained a number of viewscreens broadcasting sporting events from around the galaxy , including podracing , and the bar played energetic dance music for its patrons . At the back of 79 ' s main room , on the first floor , was as a latrine for customer use . History . 79 ' s opened at a point in time prior to 20 BBY . In 21 BBY , the Republic Senate Head of Public Affairs , Mar Rugeyan , had authorized military leave for the clone soldiers of the Grand Army of the Republic at the behest of military contractor Kal Skirata . 79 ' s soon became a popular destination for clone troops on Coruscant leave , leading many to identify the establishment simply as a " clone bar , " though 79 ' s served numerous other customers who were not clone soldiers . Near the end of the Clone Wars , circa 20 BBY , the fugitive Advanced Recon Commando , CT - 5555 — known by the nickname Fives — came to 79 ' s seeking a way to alert the Jedi Order to a conspiracy he had unintentionally discovered , and clear his name of the accusations lobbied against him by those who wanted the danger covered up . That night , 79 ' s hosted several dozen off - duty clone troopers and non - clone Republic officers , as well as civilian customers of various races , including Twi ' leks , Siniteen , and Dugs . Among the patrons in attendance , Fives located his former comrade from the 501st Legion , Kix . In the privacy of 79 ' s latrine , Fives arranged for Kix to set up a meeting with Jedi General Anakin Skywalker and Captain Rex in order to help the troubled and framed commando . Soon after , shock troopers from the Coruscant Guard arrived in pursuit of Fives , forcing the ARC trooper to sneak out of 79 ' s in order to evade capture . Behind the scenes . 79 ' s bar first appeared in " Star Wars " canon in the fourth episode of the , entitled " Orders " . The bar was later mentioned in Tim Veekhoven ' s Star Wars Blog entry " Sports in the Star Wars Galaxy " .
