Top 3 Best Clubs in Dallas, TX [2025 GUIDE]
Best of Dallas
Truth and Alibi

The mastermind twin brothers Chris and Mark Beardon decided to make the entrance of the nightclub Truth & Alibi behind The Original Deep Ellum Candy Company, a tiny candy shop. As clubbers enter the building, one by one they move towards the Willy Wonka-esque candy shop’s ‘secret’ door which requires a password to enter and that takes them into a dark, long room. On one side, a bar, and on the other, a collection of couches and chairs that serve as tables. The candy shop front is meant to mirror the types of shops that covered up night clubs and bars during the prohibition era. Under the cover of many waterfall chandeliers, deep blue lights, and roaring 20s themed furnishings, guests are able to enjoy drinks from an extensive cocktail menu, tasty finger foods and appetizers and music from a selection of the hottest DJs that Dallas has to offer.
