so said she....

by balloonknot007

the previous post couldnt be further from the truth. who goes to an irish pub/dance club to drink wine. and she is calling the phoenix pretentious? hmmm. fact is, DJ Vinny has been tearing up Friday and Saturday nights there for almost ten years and it's for a reason. arguably one of the longest standing "residencies" in the city it remains the hottest. if you dont like honest behavior stay home and watch TV otherwise s**k the marrow out of life and head to the Phoenix. an unpretentious, eclectic crowd of all sizes, shapes, colors, ages, and demographics. crowded? perhaps, but what great place isn't? it's because people WANT to be there!!!!

Rude staff

by pele847

I went to this bar on a saturday night for 80's dancing with my mom. I wanted her to have a good time while visiting, but instead I was mortified by the behavior of the doorman and the owner of this bar. Both were extremely rude. Also, this is a tiny bar that is really too small for decent dancing, as we were elbow to elbow with drunk kids who seemed like they could not possibly be 21. Moreover, the wine selection was not great. I would not recommend this pretentious dive bar to anyone.

• Pros: dj picked some fun music, although it really wasn't all 80's music
• Cons: rude staff, small space not appropriate for dancing

best time wharped 80's music playing bar ever

by tabchain

the bar had the best mix crowd ever with the occasional MILF and sketchy garlic smelling guys. the music kept people moving and the bar staff was friendly. great choice for a night out with your friends. it wasn't expensive or pretentious, it was just a good time!! so go and have fun!!
