I am pleased to announce the promotion of Tracey Oakes to General Manager. She will be overseeing the Charlottesville venue! Tracey is a lifer in the restaurant business and has been a part of it for over 25 years including traveling the world with The Dave Matthews Band as their backstage manager. She joined Alamo as a bartender in 2017 until she “could figure out what she wanted to do with her life” (so she is a real Cojeaux “OG”) Since that time, she has become such an integral part of the Cville team progressively rising up the ranks to now General Manager. Tracey grew up in South Carolina on an island and had to catch the “school boat” with the other island kids. She has spent her life either living on the beach or chilling in the mountains. She has high standards, is a firm believer in doing things the Alamo Way, and is a passionate advocate for Cojeaux and Alamo. When not at work, Tracey enjoys life with her very accomplished daughter Kendal (who just graduated from college) , her two dogs, and is probably wearing something purple. Let’s all congratulate Tracey as she takes on this new role and I’m sure she will have continued success and make us better as an organization!

Starting as a bartender at our Charlottesville location on day one, Thomas wasted no time in leaving a lasting impression. His commitment to delivering exceptional service and his innate leadership qualities quickly caught the eye of management. Through determination and perseverance, Thomas advanced into management roles, gaining invaluable experience at both our Loudoun and Charlottesville establishments.

ORDER UP SOME ‘84 ON A PLATE WITH OUR FIVE NEW SPECIALS While 1984 certainly had some questionable tastes (no one looked good with a Flock of Seagulls cut), there’s no questioning how good our new Alamo Time Capsule 1984 specials taste. Available at any show from 7/01 - 9/01, this limited-time menu features flavors ripped from some of our favorite films from ‘84, including the Luck Dragon Pizza inspired by THE NEVERENDING STORY, Pyrokinetic Popcorn inspired by FIRESTARTER, the Masked Kale-er Salad inspired by BODY DOUBLE (also available as a wrap), the Footloose and Fancy Free mocktail inspired by FOOTLOOSE, and the Don’t Fall Asleep cocktail inspired by A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET.
