The Alibi Room is a “modern tavern” in Gastown that is famed for its grand selection of beers on tap. With 50 taps of local and imported craft beer, this is beer heaven. The Alibi Room is located inside a heritage building that’s over a 100 years old, so it provides an interesting atmosphere for dining and drinking. This restaurant is frequently occupied by loud and cheerful guests who come for after work drinks.
The other night, my friend Lawrence and I came here for late night drinks. Clueless as to what beers to get, I got a flight of 4 beers suggested by our server. This is the best way to sample a variety of beers rather than just one.

Along with the drinks we ordered a Bucket of Skinny Fries. I’m normally not a big fry person, but these ones were different. They were super crispy and were still warm when we got them. Along with some fresh house made ketchup, these fries are easily one of my favourites in town.

And of course, what beer night is complete without wings? The Chicken Wings here are top-of-the-line because they are made with free run chicken marinated in garlic and honey. These wings have a unique appetizing flavor that goes perfectly with a flight of beers.

Next time you’re looking for a place to grab a drink, consider the Alibi Room. Here, you have the liberty of sticking to your regular beers or exploring a ton of new ones. I’m told that the burgers here are fantastic as well, so I look forward to trying them out next time. Just another restaurant that makes our Gastown even more amazing!
- Wide selection of beers
- Great fries and wings
