Overview
- Alibi in Altrincham displays a sign stating no single entry after 9 p.m., with solo visitors permitted earlier in the day at what the owner describes as a high‑tempo, late‑night bar.
- Owner Carl Peters says the measure is about guest safety and venue management, adding he has used similar policies before and would “die on the hill” of enforcing it.
- House rules also set a strict dress code that bars sportswear or tracksuits, Stone Island clothing, ripped or frayed jeans, baseball caps, and what the venue terms “roadman vibes.”
- An Instagram video defending the policy featured confrontational language, including calling a turned‑away customer “a bit of a gammon” and telling him not to bring a “woke agenda.”
- Reaction online is sharply divided, with some backing a licensee’s discretion and others calling the stance exclusionary, and reports note no change to the policy or regulatory action.
