7th Heaven is a bar owned by Tifa Lockhart in the Compilation of Final Fantasy VII. It is actually the name of two businesses, the original in Midgar's Sector 7 and a new one built after the fall of Meteor in Edge.

[edit] Storyline

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow. (Skip section)
7th Heaven in Final Fantasy VII

In Final Fantasy VII the 7th Heaven serves as the base of operations for the AVALANCHE terrorist organization. By using a secret elevator disguised as a pinball machine, AVALANCHE members can reach their secret headquarters below the bar. The organization also uses the bar as their only known home. When Tifa joins Cloud Strife and Barret Wallace on an AVALANCHE mission, the bar is left in the care of Marlene Wallace, Barret's four year old daughter.

However, the player can only visit the bar once. The bar is soon destroyed when Shinra destroyed the Sector 7 pillar, dropping the plate upon the slums and crushing the area. Marlene was not in the bar at the time, having been saved by Aeris before the plate fell.

The bar is rebuilt in the town of Edge during Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children. It houses Cloud, Tifa, Denzel, and Marlene, as well as Cloud and Tifa's new business, the Strife Delivery Service. In Dirge of Cerberus -Final Fantasy VII-, Shelke, Tifa, Red XIII, and Yuffie are seen in the new bar during the ending.

[edit] Trivia

Zack suggesting the bar's name to a carpenter in the Spanish version of Crisis Core
  • In Crisis Core -Final Fantasy VII-, when gathering materials to create a flower cart, Zack Fair meets a carpenter looking to build a bar. Zack suggests the name 7th Heaven. This is presumably the origin of the 7th Heaven seen in Final Fantasy VII, as the carpenter mentions various features seen in that bar, and states "Maybe there'll be a young girl tending the bar... Yes, yes, with a big bosom and long legs! Just a killer figure!", which is an obvious allusion to Tifa. He also mentions enthusiastically that it should have a secret anti-Shinra base (causing Zack to mention that he works for Shinra).
  • It is also possible to enter the abandoned original 7th Heaven while Vincent explores the ruins of Sector 7 in the later chapters of Dirge of Cerberus.
