The drinks are great and won't break your pockets. There is a pool table and jukebox plus an extra seating in the back. Fun with friends or even cute for a drink date

Ron Worthy

best happy hour in the city . 3 for everything. great jukebox and some of the beat pool in the city . one of the real NY experiences left.

Village Voice

Graffitied walls, a well-loved pool table and frequent arm wrestling make this place a down-and-dirty drinkers dream. Order up a whiskey neat for just $4 and soon you’ll be ready to join in!

Gothamist

This spot includes the dive bar standards along with a pool table , Big Buck Hunter III, bad movies looped in the background and a happy hour deal consisting of pretty much all drinks for $3 or $4. Read more

Pool table in the back and jukebox for you to play your own music . Only downside is that every one else is also playing their music whether you like it or not

Victoria

LOVE Alibi!! The perfect dive bar...and it's actually a true dive bar . Beware the pee smell :)

Compass

Often hailed as one of the best dive bars in the city , The Alibi is always packed with loyal regulars.

Jon Cowley

Such a great dive bar with an incredible, private backyard ...

Will Mahony

Been around forever. Cheap and dirty . One of my favorite Brooklyn dives

Argelys Oriach

The outside area out back has a very relaxed atmosphere and drinks are super cheap ! $5 for Jameson!

Gideon Olshansky

Happy hour is $5 beers on draft until 8: one of the best deals around.

Lindsey Rhoades

This is one place in BK you should never order tap beer , they clearly don't clean their taps! But well drinks are cheap , so stick to liqs or bottles!!!

Mini Lee

Beer is the best (safe) thing to get here. Play pool , listen to music , and burn one down outside in the back. They have a nice set up out there :-)

Iversen

Weirdest most diverse Saturday night crowd you can possibly imagine

Eric Sabo

One of the best dive bars in Brooklyn. Great buy backs... Soccer and jeopardy often in the tube. Pool, buck hunter , and a back patio

Brandi Tape

If you see me and it's a week day send me home. If you see me and it's the weekend buy me a stoli raz and soda !

Rick Kincaid

Great happy hour , interesting folks, and jeopardy at 7!
