Falcon House

The exterior of the Falcon House.

The Falcon House is an F-Zero themed cafe located in Mute City. The former owner was "Bart Lemming" until his death some time in the year 2202. By the year 2207, Misaki Haruka has become the new owner.

It is described as a place where F-Zero pilots can rest. It is open from 8 AM to 9 PM, but Bart was willing to close early so that he could help his customers in a more personal manner. Such an instance was seen in Lap 8, when Ryu Suzaku was troubled over his past, and Bart closed early in order to allow Ryu to get his thoughts out.

## Origin

Its name was inspired by Captain Falcon, a legendary racer and bounty hunter in the F-Zero Grand Prix. However, the man that the Falcon House was named after, was actually also Bart Lemming, whose real name was Andy Summer.

## Employees

* Bart Lemming (Pre-2201 to 2202), the former owner and barista of the Falcon House, actually Andy Summer and Captain Falcon. Although Bart was usually the only person seen to be working at the Falcon House before Lap 11, there have been times where other employees have been seen.
* Dream (2201), a former employee.
* Clank Hughes (2201), an employee and temporary manager during Bart's absence from Lap 38 until his return in Lap 47 (although he is once again absent in Lap 48) during the year 2202.
* Ryu Suzaku (Sometime between 2201 and 2202), temporary employee, but his cooking made Jack and Clank sick.
* Leon (2202), a former employee.
* Misaki Haruka (2207), now the current owner and barista of the Falcon House.

Dream worked at the Falcon House for a short time during Lap 7, in the year 2201. She had arrived to Mute City 20 days prior to her birthday, and on the 10th day, she met and fell in love with young man named Truecome. After the events of her birthday, she married him, and was no longer seen working at the Falcon House.

In the same year, during Lap 11, Captain Falcon would encourage Clank Hughes to leave the planet Heru and pursue a better life in Mute City. Clank would eventually find himself at the Falcon House, and even asked to work there, to which he was approved. He was also able to determine how much his boss had been spending and what to cut back on. In the year 2202, Bart wouldn't be present at the Falcon House from Lap 35-47 as well as Lap 48, leaving Clank to manage the place temporarily, in his absence.

In the year 2202, during Lap 27, Leon began working at the Falcon House for a short time, but was also a part-time F-Zero pilot. He developed a crush on Lucy, but she only saw him as a friend. Unbeknownst to everyone else, Leon also had a secret beast form. Beastman and Ryu were witnesses to this form, but it is Ryu who Leon would confess his secret to. During a race, Lucy's machine was overturned, and Leon assisted in the rescue effort at the cost of revealing his beast form. After Ryu defended Leon from Beastman, both the beast and beast hunter left Mute City.

After Falcon's passing in Lap 51, Ryu was finally able to propose to Haruka, but also embraced the title of Captain Falcon. In the 2207 Mute City Grand Prix epilogue, Clank joined his first F-Zero Grand Prix, while Ryu donned his Captain Falcon attire beside the Blue Falcon. At the Falcon House, Misaki Haruka is seen behind the counter in her work apron.

It is not known if the now-teenage Clank still works at the Falcon House when he's not racing.

	+ The prices are 280 credits for a coffee and 480 credits for breakfast. In the morning, there is coffee and "delicious cake."
	+ The Falcon House is a place where pilots can relax, open from 8 AM - 9 PM. The time would vary as Bart was willing to close early to help customers on a more personal level. Given his true identity of being Captain Falcon, he would also have varying schedule times for his own reasons.
