Bar Guide 2014: Alibi Tiki Lounge

By MICHAEL MANNHEIMER

Alibi Tiki Lounge

4024 N Interstate Ave., 287-5335, alibiportland.com. 11 am-2 am daily.

Lemme put this out there for the uninitiated: Shit gets weird at the Alibi on a Sunday night. Not that Portland's best black light-infested, hula-girl, tiki coke den ever really sleeps, but the end of the weekend seems to bring out all the Interstate freaks, from a dude in a baggy tank top murdering Butthole Surfers' "Pepper" during drunken karaoke to a party bus full of ladies trying to make "fetch" happen. The Alibi has an extensive food menu, with a range of fried staples and meat-heavy Hawaiian fare, but let's be real: Nobody comes here to do anything but get super wastoid, belt out "We Didn't Start the Fire" after downing five High Lifes and two very questionable Singapore slings, and send sketchy messages to every single Tinder match. Swipe right forever, dudes. MICHAEL MANNHEIMER.

Happy Hour: 3-7 pm daily. $3 wells, $2 PBR, $5 mai tais.
Entertainment: Karaoke seven nights a week after 9 pm, lottery, video poker.
