Alibi Lounge

I would never come here again. I’m not sure who the new owners are but they are overcharging. We ordered 3 frozen drinks with barely any alcohol in it and one shot of patron and the cost came to $94! I don’t mind spending money on drinks but the bartender included a $14 tip and they charged us over $20 for using a credit card. The service was subpar. When I pay this type of money I expect to have excellent service. The bartender was lazy, spent most of the time on her phone and never checked in with us or anyone for that matter. We had to ask for water a few times and I saw the same frustration in a few other customers and a man who was also behind the counter with her appeared to be somewhat frustrated with her as well. I hate when small businesses like this come in and try to exploit the community. I will never come here again.

We spent $100 for three drinks… which is fine BUT, if you are going to give your self a 14% gratuity need to ask everyone “you okay?!” “Can I bring you anything else?!” Consistently.We had to ask 4 times for cups water because our bartender was in the corner on her phone on FaceTime with her leg up. There is no register, they use their phone to calculate prices. Other People were getting extremely frustrated and someone had to step in and help her because she said she was so claimed busy however, nobody is really at the bar. This was NOT one of my favorites and I live in Harlem and I always support local businesses. However I would not recommend. Money hungry and lazy.

I just moved to harlem and wanted to support the local gay bar but 12 dollars for a well vodka (cash only) is crazy. I rather go to other places where the prices are reasonable

Gonna miss Alibi! Heard that the new people stole our beautiful BLACK LGBT bar in Harlem? Like they didn't pay for it and now they're just making money and keeping for straight people!

It was closed on a Friday night at 10pm. It looked like it had been closed for months. All the posts on Google maps and IG are dated months ago.

This gem has a historical place in New York landscape!

The owners’ need to respond to every single bad review in an angry tone shows a level of immaturity that discourages me from ever going here. They are proving everyone’s point about unprofessional behavior. Most people would be embarrassed posting publicly like that.

Where are you guys located? I can’t seem to find the lounge ?

We ran over cause we thought it closed at 10 pm. False. They don't close till 4 am! What a wonderful environment. We heard about Alibi lounge from people at Stonewall Inn as a black gay owned business and wanted to support. Let's put some love on top! Alexi was our magical bartender. We found our neighborhood bar/hangout! How fun!
