First time going for bottomless brunch. Arrived to bottles of prosecco on the table which was a nice surprise. Music was slightly to loud to hear conversations with friends especially if opposite ends of tables, just needs tweaking. Options for food was ok with some vegan options, burgers and pizzas were good. Loaded fries - special for the month were disappointing, they were cold and lacked the "load". In terms of cocktails reasonable choice, although the elderflower spritz needs addressing, it was far to citrus, which over flavoured the elderflower to the point you wouldn't know there was any in there....was more like a mojito- (which were good). The staff were fab!!!!!! They were friendly and attentive and kept the drinks flowing. Overall we had a good time, would use again, so therefore would recommend....especially if the few tiny tweaks get addressed. Price per person: £30–40 Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4

Having been a customer here for near on 15-20 years I have just been agressively squared up to by a bouncer (to note - short asian, with short creamed back hair) for wearing a pair of leather flip-flops. He put his face physically and agrressivley into mine and said you are wearing slippers. His reaction was akin to responding to a serious violence, gun crime, or drug issue. I responded by saying why are you being aggressive and threatening with me if indeed I am wearing slippers? (which I was not). Irony is, I have entered this estblishement as a loyal cusomer for years, and in estimation this summer alone I have visited the pub in the same 'slippers' at least 20 times. 20 times 7 punds a pint is 140 pounds. Then add on the friends I brought in and repeat customer over 15-20 years. I think we are now looking at significants amount of money that will now not be going into the coffers of the Phoenix because of this agressive young Asian bouncer, and the word that will be spread amongst Coventry people will be very damaging. One final thought on this is, having known this pub for many years, why all of sudden does it think it command a dress code akin the Ritz. Bloody hilarious.

Response from the owner a year ago

Hi Richard, thankyou for the feedback. We apologies if you felt the response from the doorstaff was aggressive, we will be investigating this further. We do however follow a strict dresscode during the night time period for the safety and wellbeing of our guests. If you are willing to give any further details please email us at phoenix.coventry@stonegategroup.co.uk so we can look into this more. We do hope you will feel comfortable returning to the venue. Thank you again for taking the time to let us know how we can improve. We hope you will consider us again in the future. Take care.
