portrait of my brother on the front patio

Lookup: "local dive" in the dictionary, and this place will be pictured. It's where locals go to drink, dance, play pool, gripe about tourists. If you're not from Homer, you'll probably be the only person in here that's not. I have a high tolerance for cigarette smoke, and it is too smokey in here, even for me. There is a small patio though, which solves the problem.

Amazing local spot!!! Sunday night and a win!!!

Bartender is not friendly and it was not busy. Won't even look you in the eye. Came for music but left because of the bartender.

When in Homer... Too much smoke for my liking, but otherwise a solid place to grab a beer and catch some live music.

The food at The Alibi really is the best in town!…read more It doesn't matter what brings you in: the staff is friendly, welcoming, quick, and knowledgeable; the menu is fulfilling and reasonably-priced; and the vibe is exactly what we all need in our lives.

Yes, I have been back to visit my dearly beloved "best fries in Alaska" and I can confirm that they…read morestill retain the number one spot. This place was so packed tonight, because it's the height of the tourist season (we couldn't get parked for a good 10 minutes) and so the place was HEAVING and packed to the rafters. Even so, we were seated immediately, and the fancy water carafe brought to us. Obviously I think most of the people in here are tourists. Most don't look Alaskan, if you know what I mean. I order the sublime Parm Fry Stack, that I've been dreaming about for 7 months, and he got, oh who cares what he got, I don't remember. He should write his own reviews. Despite the jam-packed dining room, it was not overly noisy, and you could hear your conversation. I had an unfortunate experience at a cafe recently, where I encountered one of those people who love the sound of their own voice, instead of chowing down on some good food. Fortunately there were none of those type in here, and so I got to appreciate my Parm Fry Stack in peace. Our server seemed surprised that I only wanted the Parm Fry Stack, and not a proper entree, and we wouldn't be sharing them between us, along with our main meal. No! Potatoes can be a main too. Well. You know the last time I had them, I was impressed. It was a sizable portion. This time, it was an absolutely enormous portion. A DAUNTING portion. Even I was dubious that I could manage it. But they were as epically delicious as the first time with no difference in flavour at all, which I am supremely grateful for. I don't give out awards such as Number 1 fry in Alaska lightly, but this humongous beast has earned its place, and retained it with consistent quality. Absolutely beautiful!

Trivia for out of towners: What's the mascot of the high school just a few minutes away? What…read moreiconic Alaskan building material makes up the front of their high school? Sooooo....It's okay. Chips and salsa are NOT complimentary. A basket of chips and two bowls of salsa wasn't terribly expensive at 4.50. But hot salsa wasn't available when we went. So they gave us two milds. The salsa tasted a little weird. I couldn't tell if an ingredient was missing or if there was some other funky aspect. Either way, I didn't eat many chips (which made the paying for it seem a little more frustrating). The queso appetizer was delicious. Great serving size and great flavor. Everyone at the table agreed and there wasn't any left at the end. Beer selection included a couple local craft beers and plenty of bottles. I was very happy with the Pacifico and lime I received. Service was friendly. So we're the couple on a date at the table next to us. They recommended food and drinks and told us all about places to visit in town. Apparently there are meaderys (meaderies?)open on town. Cool news! Overall, I was largely underwhelmed by the food and slightly chagrined by the chips and salsa cost.

Today as I was walking home from dropping my car off at the shop, I stepped in a hole and the next…read morething I know I'm crawling out of a ditch. Further on down the road I was attacked by a crow 4 times and I'm sure all you people driving by Safeway that saw that had a good laugh. (I'm laughing now but I wasn't then) Then I called a Taxi and yes someone stole my taxi. Finally got home and took my truck to Don Jose's for Taco Tuesday (5 tacos 10 bucks) yum! Owners bought me a nice shot of tequila! So nice!
