Smoking currently takes place outside the front on the venue within the stanchions. Hope this helps with clarity for some folks!

I've been a member here for years, and have been coming for slightly longer. This place is a community. There is no better, safer, more enjoyable place to be. The bartenders and drinks are top notch. The music is always on point, the shows varied across genres and entertaining. The theme nights are creative and fun. Come out for the best wing sauces you'll ever put in your mouth on Monday evenings for ¢25 Wing Night, stay for the many tasty draft beer options and delicious food--even vegan faire! Once you've been here, you'll never want for another regular watering hole or lack good company.

I really enjoy this small venue some of my favorite bands come here often and it makes me happy I also see the same people each time I go to see bands so it's nice seeing friendly faces.

Love this little club. I've gone out of my way to attend shows and events at Fallout over other places as the staff and atmosphere makes it feel like I'm at *home* with my people. It's not the most glamorous, but that's not what I'm looking for. I am looking for a place where queer and alt and geekery meet and create something fun. They serve a good food menu of options, and the drink selection is really good for my diverse group of friends.

I decided not to rate the food because I didn’t eat it but it was definitely giving dungeon, dark and goth vibes like other people were saying. The drinks were definitely great. The show was entertaining and my cousin and I had a great time. Definitely a friendly environment.

Any time I get the opportunity to come to Fallout, I'm there. Old-school goth night, Metal Beat, Fresh From the Crypt, a variety of live music from artists new and old that I love...I've been making the 80-mile trip for a couple years now and I will continue to. They have been gracious enough to let me guest spin a night before, and I am so appreciative of it. Jackie and the crew are genuinely so caring and are a staple of the Mid-Atlantic alternative circles. We are so lucky to have Fallout as distant city neighbors. Support this space!!

Lots of great events. The foods is reasonable priced and portion sizes are good. Highly recommended. On nights were there are no events the vibe is very chill and people are great.

I visited as a non-member for the Emo MCR Night after hearing about Fallout from my tattoo artist, and I’m so glad I did. From the moment I walked in, the energy was welcoming and affirming. The folks at the door were kind and professional, the bartender was fantastic, and the entire vibe was just immaculate.
