MODERN TAVERN

What do we mean, “Modern Tavern”? – Well, we feel this term best sums up what we are trying to achieve here at the Alibi Room.

Since summer 2006, owners Raya Audet & Nigel Springthorpe have been quietly turning the Alibi Room into the place for local craft beer on tap. We have become a true Free House, pouring guest beers from the lower mainland, across the province and beyond.

Head chef Greg Armstrong has added an understated sophistication to our very accessible menu. The menu reflects a strong desire to provide familiar, comforting dishes with an emphasis on quality ingredients.

All of our meat, fish & poultry are sourced locally, ocean friendly, naturally raised and free run.

We are of the belief that beer is as versatile as wine when it comes to food pairing. We carefully curate our beer list & refresh it a couple of times per week ensuring we have a selection of the latest & greatest from the best of local beer. Occasionally we pour a selection from U.S. micro breweries. We have put together one of the most diverse selections in the province & encourage you to come try the best beer B.C. has to offer.

However, we are not total beer snobs. Our wine list features local boutique & organically grown wines. We also have a very creative house cocktail list.

The building is a heritage site, which was erected over 100 years ago. It is positioned along the railyard only a short distance from Vancouver’s trade and shipping ports. All of these elements combined make for a unique and inspiring experience. The Alibi has established itself as a place for neighbours and community to share in great food, fantastic beer and culture.
