History
Alibis was opened by current the owner June 1st of 2003, though it had a long history of entertaining. Alibis is the former site Aldacos Mexican Restaurant, now located in Sunset Station. The Building was built in 1876 originally as a home. When Sunset Station was built in 1901, the area became the red-light district and ownership of the building was passed to the homeowners daughter. A blue light was placed out front and was known as The Blue Light Room, a relaxed place where you could pick up a tasty beverage, and some evening entertainment. Just over 100 years later, Alibis carries on that same tradition!
Specialties
Full of personality, cold beer and hot bartenders, Alibis prides itself on being a true dive for the locals, train riders, and the occasional passer by in an area surrounded by overpriced tourist traps. Catering to a wide clientele base, Alibis has a little something for everyone, from the latest ball game on the TV, to original live music strummed out on the guitar. If you're in the area, it's a must hit for the true flavor of San Antonio.
