Came on a Saturday night to watch the football game. Lots of fun, hip-hop music, and dancing. Cool, trendy ‘lil bar.

Definitely enjoyed this spot on Rainey st. We came in on a Saturday and watched some college football. The bartenders were nice and attentive. They had $3 mimosas and some beers on special. Got lucky and a rep from crown royal came in so we got a shot for free and a crown royal t shirt also. They have a nice sized patio and the bathrooms are located behind the bungalow also. They also had a dj who actually played good music and there were plenty of food trucks near also.

Nice place to have a drink, small but effective. The bar tenders are great, nice place to start on Rainey street.

First time in Austin. This place has great service and great drinks. Being from out of town we really appreciate the conversation, atmosphere, and overall feel. Want to thank Drew who was a great bartender. Honestly this is a hard place not to love.

My roommate and I enjoy Rainey Street and I said we should try some new bars other than the few we’ve been to. We gave The Alibi a shot as there was no line on a Saturday night and it turned out to be just fine.

Giant jenga in the back with wooden hammocks. It seemed to be pretty sociable so we made some friends while playing.

Don’t really remember too much else to talk about, but did I mention there was no line on a Saturday night? That’ll get me in the door every time!

I had a great time at Alibi. We were there to hang out and chill. Got to play a couple of games and hung out by the swing. I personally dont drink alcohol so I had them made me a virgin cocktail of their choice. A friendly bartender had me some fruity drink that was amazing. I think I went to 3 other bars that night and it was the best drink I had.

We were exploring Rainey Street & went into this house to watch the NBA Finals!

Loved the feel of the place, great vibes, bench swings in the back, & lots of televisions to watch your favorite sporting events. Lets not forget the sick music, drink selection, & giant games!

Love the music in the day-bar. Not sure about night? Used to be Bar 96.

Alas, no more, and it is sad in some ways: no more student specials, $2,50 Lone Star long-necks. Now, Coors Light is $4.50!!!! No food is served except at the food truck next door.

The entire Rainey St area is in transition from accommodating a thrifty student population to serving million dollar condo dwelllers. The Alibi proves that change can be good.

Any place that shows the Ravens games on multiple TVs has got to be great. Seriously, the best spot on Rainey Street! Great DJ too on Sunday.
