New Year’s resolutions don’t start until you wake up New Year’s Day so it’s best to go balls to the wall until you finally crash in the wee hours of January 1. There’s plenty of places in Falls Church to party hearty and ring in 2015 including family-friendly Watch Night, dinner and dancing at the Four P’s and more.

My recommendation? Kick off Wednesday night with a dinner and dessert buffet and excellent selection of craft beer at Mad Fox before heading over to Dogwood Tavern for a champagne toast at the best Back to the Future party this side of Hill Valley. Then, firmly planted in the New Year, waddle up to the Hilton Garden Inn’s late-night buffet and stuff your face for the last time before treadmill and salad time takes over in 2015.
