TL;DR
- Bar & Lounge Safe Code (Casual/Standard): Left 10 → Right 80 → Left 30
- Bar & Lounge Safe Code (Insanity): Right 20 → Left 50 → Right 30
- Safe Location: Behind the bar counter on the 1st floor of the West Wing, Rhodes Hill Care Center
- Rewards: 3 Antique Coins (used at the Parlor for health, damage, and carry capacity upgrades)
- Code File Location: Found on a desk in the Office (West Wing, 2nd floor) — requires the Level 1 ID Wristband to access
- Tip: You can open the safe without finding the file first — the code works regardless
The Bar & Lounge safe is the first combination safe you encounter in Resident Evil Requiem. It sits behind the bar counter in the West Wing of the Rhodes Hill Care Center, and opening it is worth the effort — you get 3 Antique Coins that fund permanent upgrades for Grace.
The tricky part? The room is guarded by 3 zombies, including a singing zombie in a white dress that can stun Grace and deal serious damage. On top of that, the code file itself is locked behind a Level 1 security door, so most players reach the safe long before they find the combination.
Below, you will find the exact Bar & Lounge safe combination for both Casual/Standard and Insanity difficulty, step-by-step dial instructions, the safe’s exact location, what is inside, and where to find the code file yourself.
Bar & Lounge Safe Code in Resident Evil Requiem
Here is the Bar & Lounge safe combination for every difficulty in RE9:
Casual and Standard Difficulty
- Left 10 — Turn the dial to the left until it reads 10
- Right 80 — Without pressing confirm, turn the dial to the right until it reads 80
- Left 30 — Turn the dial back to the left until it reads 30
- Press Confirm to open the safe
Insanity Difficulty
On Insanity mode, all safe codes change. The Bar & Lounge safe code on Insanity is:
- Right 20 — Turn the dial to the right until it reads 20
- Left 50 — Turn the dial to the left until it reads 50
- Right 30 — Turn the dial back to the right until it reads 30
- Press Confirm to open the safe
Important: Make sure you turn the dial in the correct direction for each number. If you overshoot or turn the wrong way, the sequence resets and you have to start over.
Where to Find the Bar & Lounge Safe
The Bar & Lounge safe is located on the 1st floor of the West Wing in the Rhodes Hill Care Center. Specifically, it sits on the bar counter, behind the bar itself. You pass through this room as part of the main story, so you cannot miss it.
Before you interact with the safe, deal with the 3 zombies in the room first. One of them is a singing zombie wearing a white dress — her singing ability stuns Grace and leaves you vulnerable, so take her out first or sneak around carefully.
Tip: Grace’s S&S M232 pistol can also be found sitting on the bar counter in this same room. Pick it up before or after opening the safe if you have not collected it already.
What Is Inside the Bar & Lounge Safe
Opening the Bar & Lounge safe rewards you with 3 Antique Coins. These are a rare collectible currency in Resident Evil Requiem that can be spent at the Parlor in the West Wing.
At the Parlor, you can exchange Antique Coins for permanent upgrades for Grace, including:
- Health upgrades — Increases Grace’s maximum health
- Damage upgrades (Stabilizer) — Boosts weapon damage output
- Carry capacity upgrades (Hip Pouch) — Expands your inventory slots
Since there are a limited number of Antique Coins across the entire game, opening every safe — starting with this one — is essential if you want to purchase all available upgrades before leaving the Care Center.
Opening all safes in Resident Evil Requiem also unlocks the “No Safe is Safe” trophy/achievement, so it is worth tracking them all down.
Where to Find the Bar & Lounge Safe Code File
If you want to find the Bar & Lounge safe combination in-game through the official code file (File #23: Bar & Lounge Safe Code), here is what you need to do:
- Get the Level 1 ID Wristband — You obtain this from the East Wing keycard area during the main story. It is found on the 2nd floor of the East Wing, in the area where the Chunk boss first appears.
- Head to the West Wing — From the Central Hall, use the West Wing keycard to enter the West Wing.
- Go past the Kitchen — Follow the corridor north, past the Kitchen and Dining Room area.
- Open the Level 1 security door — Use your ID Wristband to unlock the door near the Custodian’s Office (save room).
- Take the stairs up to the Office — Head upstairs to the 2nd floor Office.
- Find the file on the desk — The Bar & Lounge Safe Code file is sitting on the first desk in the Office.
This file confirms the combination: Left 10, Right 80, Left 30.
While you are in the Office area, you can also find File #24 (Background Check) on a desk in the back right corner, and File #25 (Disposal Team Report) in the adjacent Records Room.
Tips for the Bar & Lounge Area
- Kill the singing zombie first. Her stun ability can lock you in place while other zombies close in. If you are low on ammo, you can try to sneak past, but it is risky.
- Pick up the S&S M232 pistol on the bar counter — it is one of Grace’s key weapons and can be easy to overlook.
- Grab the Antique Coin on the piano while you are in the Bar & Lounge. There is an additional coin sitting there that is separate from the 3 inside the safe.
- Check the Gallery hallway after leaving the Bar & Lounge — inspect the white coat hanging on the wall to find File #11 (Folded Note).
- If you need help with the Care Center fuse puzzle or the Chairman’s Office puzzle box, those guides break down each step.
