Alibis Wine Bar & Bistro Description
A modern and stylish restaurant with relaxed seating downstairs and a more formal restaurant setting on the first floor, Alibi's Wine Bar and Bistro offer a range of modern European food, veering ever so slightly towards the French way of doing things. There the focus is on great tasting food, sourcing the best local produce Dorset can offer for lunch and dinner. The lunch and evening menu changes daily depending on availability and of course the creativity of the chef.
Some of the favourites on offer could include egg florentine, slow roasted pork belly with an apple and cinnamon sauce and confit of duck with tangerine. All the desserts are made from scratch, so if you fancy some indulgence try the brioche and butter pudding with crème anglais. The kitchen prides itself on the fact that pretty much the only thing kept in the freezer is ice and even the bread and custard is made in-house from natural ingredients.
The comprehensive wine list and selection of cognacs and single malt whiskeys makes the perfect accompaniment to the meal. Alibis is conveniently located in the centre of town with more than adequate parking. Whether you're stopping by for lunch with friends or looking for a memorable evening you'll remember, Alibis should appeal.
Your Reviews of Alibis Wine Bar & Bistro
Rob Carter (7 June 2008)
We happened to go to Alibis on our way through Dorchester to visit relatives last Friday, and were really pleased with what we found. While walking into Alibis there is a really calming atmosphere that is complimented by the pleasant and helpful staff. We had a meal for two and I'd recommend the venison, which was beautifully cooked and well presented. We also happened to come on a live music evening, so after a really nice meal upstairs, we came downstairs to enjoy some fantastic live music from a local duo, a sort of acoustic modern folk group, who were very entertaining. We really enjoyed our evening, and would recommend a visit. We will be stopping by the next time we are in town for sure.

Alibi's has a great atmosphere, friendly staff and excellent food. I had the sea bass in herb crust, which was fantastic. I heard live music is being played on Fridays now. What a fabulous idea!
