Alibi Tavern has quickly become one of our favorite spots in Keaʻau. The vibe is relaxed and welcoming, and the staff genuinely treats you like family from the moment you walk in. It’s the kind of place where you can cruise after work, catch up with friends, or just unwind with a cold delicious beverage.
The drinks are solid. Well-priced, consistent, and made with love. They’ve got a great mix of classics and fun local favorites. Service is fast too, even on busy nights.
What really sets Alibi apart is the atmosphere. Good music and a clean, comfortable setup. The staffs energy is unmatched. The crowd is friendly and people usually want to come back because they have such a good time.

This is an extremely friendly neighborhood bar. It's normally plays host to retirees and neighborhood folks that have other things to do besides sit around the house. The barmaids are fun and very efficient, and the cold beer and drinks are second to none! I drop in every chance I get which is about once a week or so.

After a long day of work I wanted something refreshing so I stopped by and I had a 'Puna Peach' from Alibi Tavern, it was so yummy! It has a hint of coconut and pineapple with a refreshing froth on top! Jobe was super friendly and I loved the new vibe! I will definitely be back to try some of the new drinks on thier menu and I heard they might start serving pupu's too!

Great little hole in the wall bar. Tucked away in a corner by the smoke shop. It's a good place to hang out with friends. Great staff, karaoke, tvs, pool table, live music. Been there forever! You can bring food and sing your heart out and try new drinks and watch whatever is in season on the tvs ( thinking I should have come here for the Eddie Aikau Big Wave Invitational!) Will see you there!

The new owners of this place have created a whole new great vibe here.. they have great drink specials every day, karaoke, live music and best of all they have turned this little dive bar into a great Sports bar with 8 large monitors to watch all NCAA, NFL, NBA and playoff Baseball games!! Pool table with tournaments.. if you haven’t already, give this place a try with friends!

Diviest bar in Keaau, under new ownership, so hopefully might improve. Regular open-mic nights might be entertaining, if you like that sort of thing. Mostly cringey. Food might be an addition they're planning soon... I wouldn't eat here.
