The Roadhouse appears in the fictional town of Twin Peaks.
The Roadhouse, also called the Bang Bang Bar, is a recurring nightlife venue in the series. It serves as a meeting place for residents and visitors and becomes especially important in Twin Peaks: The Return, where musical performances often follow the main dramatic action.
The town itself is a fictional community in Washington state, created for the series by David Lynch and Mark Frost. Its lumber industry, forests, diners, hotels, sheriff’s station, and family businesses create the setting for the investigation into Laura Palmer’s death.
A common mix-up is confusing the town with Deer Meadow, where FBI agent Chester Desmond investigates a separate case in Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me. Deer Meadow is another fictional location in the mythology, but the Roadhouse is associated with Twin Peaks.
