Alibi Room
Alibi Room has evolved into a genuine Free House, serving beers from all across the Lower Mainland, the province, and the world. Raya Audet and Nigel Springthorpe, the Alibi Room’s proprietors, have been gradually transforming it into a destination for local craft beer on tap since summer 2006.

They compile their beer list with care and update it many times a week to ensure they have a diverse selection of the latest and greatest from the best of local breweries. On occasion, they’ll dispense a selection of beers from American microbreweries.

“I came here only for one drink and very impressed with the espresso martini. I lived in Melbourne Australia where they make AMAZING drinks; so I had very high expectations and they delivered! It was extremely creamy, light not too strong, super tasty. I highly recommend! The ambiance is a little bit dark however, went in on a Wednesday night and was very quiet. Great place to relax and have some good conversations without the crazy atmosphere!” – Paula Hlavacek

“On my visit to Vancouver looking for a bar to have dinner and some drinks I came across Tocador on Main street. Cocktails are unique, the bar tender was extremely attentive. Flavors are amazing, something for every taste, and the live music brings ambience to life, I couldn’t resist dancing. Tocador was not just a modern Latino restaurant, but a culinary experience that was unlike any other.” – Miguel Angel Rodriguez
