LOCAL BUSINESSMAN, CARL PETERS, CELEBRATES SUCCESS OF BAR LAUNCH

On Friday 2nd September, Altrincham’s newest cocktail and karaoke bar opened its doors to local residents. The bar, founded by Carl Peters, alongside business partner Richard Littman, was packed with guests keen to sample Alibi’s unique cocktail menu and karaoke offering on both the launch night as well as Saturday and Sunday.

Alibi is owned by business partners Richard Littman and Carl Peters, who between them have nearly 40 years’ experience running and owning hospitality venues, including Altrincham hotspot Common Ground, Translate in Shoreditch and other popular London scenes including Steam & Rye, The Coronet and The Mermaid Theatre.

It was following Common Ground’s success that Carl Peters spotted the potential in the space just a few doors down on Shaws Road. The bar is unlike any other in the Altrincham hospitality scene and brings something diverse for residents to enjoy.

Alibi is now open Thursday to Sunday every week as well as weekdays for big events, including the upcoming World Cup. Alibi is also available for group bookings, including birthday celebrations, Christmas parties and anniversaries.

Carl Peters, Owner of Alibi, says: “From running Common Ground, we are familiar with the hospitality offering in Altrincham and what customers really want. Utilising this knowledge, we have created Alibi to bring something fresh and new to Altrincham that we are confident will be a great success. As Alibi grows, we look forward to growing our team and opening more job opportunities for local residents.”
