So, this is not on the dive bar list when in Victoria, but worth the drive if looking. We arrived ready to thrift near by. However, i have a keen sense of a good dive bar and wanted a cold one. Boom, best dive bar find on this vacation. Felt like our bartender may have been an owner, and she was fun. Luck was on our side with this stop in. Pool, Darts, deck...live music which is punk and rock on weekends. I will be back as this was a fun stop in with a delicious Caesar, and tasty Jack n ginger. Thankful! read more

So, this is not the bar for cutsie cocktails and pretty tidbits. This is a friendly, meet your buddies, hang out, eat some wings (great) and burgers, sit at the bar, laugh and smile place. That's what I like! That's what I get at The Phoenix. read more

The waitress was nice and the food was good for the price that your paying. However the kitchen staff must be extremely low staffed and disorganized. We got our meal and hour and a half after we ordered. I would return for the food, but due to a low volume crowd - not sure if this was just a one off night for the service we received. There is darts, Jenga and a couple pool tables. A bit pricey for drinks, but good for a casual night out when your not to worried about eating. read more

I love Phoenix, been coming for years. No frills nothing fancy, classy dive bar. Excellent games and good pool tables. The staff are always charming but wont take your bullshit. Always some quirky local around. Exactly what I want in my local bar. Fair prices and best wing Wednesday. You will fit right in with your best ripped jeans and old band shirt. read more

Came here a few weeks ago because we wanted cheap wings and happy hour drinks. The website we saw it on listed wine. They do not have wine at all. Our wings were very burnt and when I asked to take them to-go, I was told I would have to pay for the to-go box (which costs more than the wings). I don't recommend this place as Monkey Tree is nearby. read more

The middle aged waitress I had was extremely rude to me, my friends were very confused to why she was being so nasty. I still don't understand what I did wrong.. ordered a water instead of an alcoholic beverage I guess but I was the responsible driver. She did not like that. Also had to go get it myself after waiting 15 mins since she did not want to. I'm not sure if they are going for a coyote ugly vibe or what but it was just a weird experience. read more

Decided to go for Wednesday wing night. Had to go up to the bar to order our wings since the waitress was taking over 20 minutes to take our order. out of 6 orders only 2 came out half an hour later, the other 4 came 15 mins after that. When asked for a glass of water the waitress promptly told us to get it ourselves from the jug up at the bar. Wings were also a 4/10. Hecklers on Gorge Rd is the way to go if you're looking for a cheap bar and grill, especially for wing night. Phoenix used to be a great place, the new employees are awful. Monkey Tree is also a viable option! read more

Omigod. Just don't. A whole table of us arrived for Saturday evening beers and dinner and, regardless of who ordered what, it was a shit show. Almost no one in the place and it took 40 minutes to get the food out... And it was without exception, some of the poorest quality food any of us had ever had. Just bad. read more

The venue is nice enough, and they have decent live music sometimes. Pool, darts, lots of tables is all good. But dear lord, DO NOT order the chicken fingers. 'Reconstituted chicken' doesn't even begin to describe the disgusting foamy interior of these deep-fried monstrosities. If you want to hang out with friends, play some pub games, and grab a drink or two, then Phoenix Bar is fine - but if you get hungry, stop at McD's on the way home or something - anything would be better than this place for food. read more

Noticed I had been eating moldy bread that's expiry wasn't until the 9th. Called the store to ask about a refund as I had kept the receipt and it was only the 2nd. The lady on the phone said I could come in for a refund and she would let other staff know when I'd be by. I asked her if I needed to bring the moldy bread, she said nope. I went the next day to get my refund with the receipt. The cashiers did not want to refund me unless I had the bread with me to prove it. Clearly they had no idea I was coming by. LUCKILY I KEPT THE MOLDY BREAD and went back to my car to get it. When I brought it back they STILL refused to refund me. They told me to go exchange it for another. After eating moldy bread the last thing I want to eat is the same bread so I asked again for the money refunded and the cashier was literally ARGUING with me as if the cost of the bread came out of his own pocket. Unbelievable. He continued to refuse to refund me even though I had taken all steps requested to correctly receive a refund. I opted to just cash exchange it for a different item so that this man would stop arguing with me over a refund for MOLDY BREAD THAT I LITERALLY ATE AND SPENT MONEY ON THAT HAD NOT EVEN REACHED ITS EXPIRY BY DAYS. The audacity. Some of the worst customer service I have ever received anywhere.

My son and I stopped for loonies $25.00 worth which I paid for. Then I handed the Asian guy another $25.00 to purchase 3 plants. The Cyclamen were on sale for $3.48. There was a tag in flat with them all. I also grabbed a yellow Hosta lily plant. You will notice all 3 on counter. The bill was almost $25.00. He whispered something to his elderly mom and looked at a piece of paper. Then he came back and read prices off pots. I mentioned they were on sale for $3.48. I took him to plant stand and showed him the sign. He grabbed the tag and angrily threw it on another stand leaving my money on counter. I said he had to honor that price. And he said they aren't on sale and then don't take them. Tyen he grabbed the lily and said you know what I am not selling you anything and in fact you can get out of the store. I told him I wanted my money back. Then he wanted me to also return the loonies I already paid for. I said no I want my money. He refused and I said you can not just steal my money. I would call the police. He said go ahead. I went to car and told my son he stole my money. I called police and guy came out for a smoke and walked past us grinning. My son went into the store to reason with them and to get our money back. He was adamant he wanted the loonies back as he wanted me to have nothing from them. He was holding my money in his hand that he grabbed when I tried to take my money back. It now lay on counter as I waited for police. I took pictures of them and plants on counter and tag that he threw on side stand. He came out filming me and was filming my calm son. I told him if he was going to rip me off I was reporting him to Consumer Affairs and posting online how he was scamming people with sale tags he had no intention of honouring and was stealing from the public. Before police came my son as they were filming each other calmly convinced him to return money as I waited outside informing people he was a theif. I cancelled police and was at corner stop sign leaving when a younger Asian lady came up to my car. I waited as I thought she was going to apologize about the problem. Instead she looked at me in my face and said Fkkk off. So I took her picture. How unprofessional and people beware they rip you off. They just expected me to say nothing. I went back next night and filmed sale tag in another group of plants. That won't be honored either

It can be a bit spendy as it starts at CA$109 per person before tax and tip - at least for me I allocated the entire $100 USD dining credit with the Amex fine hotels and resorts benefit on this. Reservations are almost mandatory for weekend and I'm glad I made one just in case, although it was rather risky due to the 48 hour cancellation policy if I fly in the morning of, but it worked out. They're strict on time - I made a 12pm reservation and they refused to seat me even though it was not busy at all at 11am opening and made me wait until exactly 12pm. A bit harsh when I contacted the hotel and made a note to the restaurant for my arrival details. I got the traditional afternoon tea for 1 so just tea and 3 tiers of scones, small bites, and desserts. It was quite nice of them to refill the entire tier of savory small bites even though I only requested 3, so that was a nice touch that somewhat made up the poor first impression. You can request more of certain items for free, just don't abuse the system basically The food with the 1 tier refill was more than enough food for me - the service was decent as they checked up on me during the meal. I nicely asked for the tea gift box that is only reserved for anniversaries and they accommodated, but this will almost unlikely happen in many situations so your mileage may vary. I did wait 20 minutes for the gift box as it wasn't a priority for them, so do what you will to see if it is worth the time (I at least was not in a rush)

My only complaint was we ordered 3 different sizes (the smallest one they had and the next two sizes up) and they were all about the same size. For the expensive price, it was a bit frustrating to pay for a small size but get the same size as the smallest one they offer.
