| Looks can be deceiving and upon approach, indeed, the exterior of The Phoenix is seemingly inviting. However, once inside this SW1 establishment, it is more than evident that here is not your traditional pub. No doubt, once upon a time, it catered for those, such as I, who enjoy the tranquil old-fashioned local. But today, with its anonymous feel and blandness, it merely means to attract those who simply don’t care about the surroundings they choose to drink, eat, or socialise in. There is absolutely nothing to engage the eye whatsoever. No interesting ornaments or trinkets, just plain walls and floorboards, Evan the tables and chairs are boring. The staff were friendly enough, however, and they at least, pleasingly, had a coupe of real ales on offer. If only the condition was good. My pint of Adnams tasted as if it had been heated up! The other ‘proper beer’ was Deuchars IPA. Food is on offer and this is seemingly the main concern here, though as I didn’t sample anything, can’t comment. There is a plasma screen and it was showing sport, minus the volume. Oh well, the toilets were clean at least. HTM69 - 30 Aug 2008 16:41 |
| OMG. just been here for lunch. woeful, amateurs. dreadful pasta. eveyone looked disappointed with their food. Asked for a main course caesar salad and they said they couldn't do it as it was only on the started menu. You could really serve turd in a roll in this area and still people will turn up and pay a tenner for it. The bloke behind the bar was so worried about the gel in his stupid haircut that he looked at me as if I was the 1st human that had ever lived. DanLeyland - 15 Feb 2008 16:13 |
| Decent, slightly anonymous gastro pub. Not much competition round there though. tbp - 11 Dec 2007 16:57 |
| On the positive side they have got some interesting lager options here including Pilsner Urquell.£3.40 a pint compares favourably with £3.80 in the nearby Slug & Lettuce for Peroni. On the negative side has a bit of a pretentious feel about it. It was my first time in there so maybe I need to check it out again to confirm my view douvres - 1 Dec 2007 20:25 |
| i first went to this pub in 1982 as i watched the world cup in it, but what a transformation, gone are the carpets, t.v. screens and slightly dodgy characters, to be replaced by mainly diners, as this is now more of a gastropub, with pine everywhere & floorboards to match, they did have a decent real ale on though Deuchers IPA lovesong - 31 May 2007 18:41 |
