in the alley
on the alley
at the alley
I know we can say 'in the alley", but can we say "on the alley, or at the alley"?
I'd better stick with 'in the alley' since I got conflicting responses. :)

I can't think of a situation where one would use "at the alley."

Hello! You can say “in the alley” and “at the alley” but you cannot say “on the alley”. However, you can say “on the street” (for example, “the man is standing on the street”), but “on the alley” sounds unnatural. I hope this helps!
