They have a strange contest where they give you a tack. You provide a dollar bill and a quarter or two to wrap around it. If you can wrap it right and throw it hard enough to get it to stick into a wooden beam in the ceiling then you get a 'free' drink. They told us that when it gets humid everything starts to fall down from the ceiling and it rains quarters and dollar bills. Fun place!

If I could give ZERO stars, I would. Bernie Cassangrande, The owner of Bernie's Pub (the building…read morewhich The Alibi resides in) is rolling in his grave. These guys took a beautiful bar with character, stripped it, put in bad lighting, a pathetic alchohol selection, incompetent bartending, exhorbinant prices and a mean crowd that provides a less than enjoyable experience and is NOT representative of an Iron Range good time dive bar. I brought my boyfriend here to show him a cool bar on the Iron Range and instead of being proud, was embarrassed and promptly left after one overpriced beer. The ALibi lost out on at least a 100 dollar drink tab that night. And don't try to play pool, 3 balls don't drop and the table isnt balanced. I highly reccommend passing this joke of a place up and hitting up the Sand Bar for great service and a good time crowd.

I had the shrimp dinner and couldn't believe how good the shrimp was. Crispy on the outside, shrimp was tender and not overcooked! Side salad was fancy too. Also had the bacon Mac as a side. Was not as impressed with that however. Surprised what you can find in a Northern Minnesota range town.

Strike up a conversation with him and enjoy your stay. Billiards table, electronic darts. Outdoor patio. The bar sells locally made beef sticks that are very tasty. Overall, the Alpine is a refreshing alternative to the dingy, dirty other bars that populate Main Street. Pros: Clean and inviting bar, friendly to tourists/visitors, customer-focused. Cons: Do not currently accept credit/debit cards, kitchen under construction so no bar food, no live music/dance floor or other entertainment.

I have had several occasions to visit recently…read more Food has been good and consistent. Having tried burgers, sandwiches, entrees, pizza, wings, I would summarize the food this way, straightforward. Everything that I have eaten has been good. Not extra special or amazing, but good and consistent. I have had consistently friendly and helpful servers. I don't personally know anyone who works there but my interactions with staff have all been very friendly. I have eaten here alone and with groups, there is always music or TV sound happening, but it not so loud as to bother all conversation or prevent you from reading. I personally like ambient noise as long as it is not too loud. It is one of the reasons I would go out by myself is to be in that environment. I have found this business to be consistently accommodating and reliably good quality.

I have to say that this was one of those "never have I ever " experiences! We had to call the…read morerestaurant to get service (literally) while we were sitting on their patio, but we're up north and figured we'd just relax and enjoy. However, we also had to call the restaurant while we were there to get service, Still, we're "up north " so trying to "chill". After we were finally served our food (it was a "so-so" meal ) we had to actually call the restaurant yet again to pay the bill! It will be a great story to tell everyone about.....we waited around forever. Stood up and went to get a server to make sure that our bill was paid- which was another ordeal. A good story for the ages,but we won't recommend it for the faint of heart Food (honestly) wasn't even close to be worth waiting for. Restaurant wasn't close to being busy either.

It's 8 in the morning and you are running on 4 hours of sleep that was preceded by 12 hours of drinking on main st GB. You have a vodka collins in one hand and a screwdriver in the other , waiting for snickers to start serving pizza for a decent breakfast. As with any Range bar, the pours are epic and will knock amateurs on their ass. Most likely my 6th grade teacher will end up serving a drink or two to ya. There is "stategery" here. Start at the Roosevelt, move to Snickers and then roll up to the Elks for drinking the rest of the day.
