One of them may be a friend of yours from times long past. Chatting over a steamin' hot cup of joe is a great way to remember the good ol' days." is a special encounter in Fallout 2.
==Layout==
It consists of a small diner out in the middle of the wasteland containing all of the different Vault Dweller models, including ones that could not be played, for example, as a black male or a female with red hair.
Tandi, Set and Dogmeat of the first Fallout can be found here.
The cafe is a copy of the Maltese Falcon in the Hub of Fallout.

If the Chosen One takes all armor off (down to the vault jumpsuit), they can get Dogmeat as a companion.
