Phoenix Rising

⚠️Warning please be aware that this bar is a non smoking bar! They didn’t have a sign in the bar to let you know!!!! I don’t want you to get yelled at either. ⚠️First time EVER going to this bar I will NEVER go to that bar again, I was give attitude and rudeness towards me by the bartender tonight for smoking my vape! (Mind you I didn’t see a sign that said you couldn’t smoke I was looking for a sign.) He said if I catch you smoking a vape in this bar again you will not be able to come back to this bar again!! I was so confused, This was my first coming to this bar and I got treated like trash.🗑️

Phoenix is STILL my favorite bar anywhere! Ive lived in all the major cities in Texas, Washington, DC, Atlanta, GA, and many other large cities, and Id rather be at Phoenix than anywhere. George and Craig (the owners) are amazing; and Mike is my favorite bartender of all time. Dont miss the chance to check out Phoenix Rising if youre in OKC.

Awesome please, but no doors in men’s room. I’ve been transitioning for 8+years and have run into this problem one other time at a dive bar. Never at an “inclusive” establishment. It’s slightly insulting.

An excellent venue with a diverse, friendly crowd and staff, and great drinks. The patio is very nice and a relaxing place to hang out in the sun. They also have great drag shows on Tuesday, Friday and Saturday. Its my must-be place for Happy Hour and Sunday Funday.

This place is a joke and a half went there on a Saturday and the lady was like its a 5 buck cover I asked what event was going on and the stuck up blonde lady was like we have been charging a fee for the past 2 years due to covid and it helps keep the rift raft out her answer to that was just snobby and stuck up for a back woods County looking bar. I was there 2 nights prior for their drag show there was no cover charge for that so to charge a 5 buck cover on a Saturday is stupid when nooooo other place in the district was charging. If you want to keep the RIFT RAFT OUT then stop doing that pathetic excuse you call a drag now they were RIFT RAFT TRASH 🗑. SIDE NOTE THE BAR WAS EMPTY ON DRAG NIGHT SOOOOO THAT SHOULD TELL YOU SOMETHING. if you cant afford your RENT because what I understand they also own the one across the street as well that DID NOT CHARGE A FEE LOL then hang it up and shut down because this place was sad even for a dive bar.

Kind of a dive but that isnt a bad thing. Crowd definitely leans more towards the female side. Drag shows arent of the same caliber as the Boom but arent bad. Enormous patio is weirdly nicer then the bar itself.

The Drag show on Tuesdays starting at 10 is amazing and call to ask about the once a month leather night if you feel brave slash want to try that kind of thing everyone is really nice

The bartender was great! He asked me what I usually liked and made a great drink for me based on that.

Loved the atmosphere and definitely will be coming back! Just update your guys hours on Google please 💙

We attempted to stop in for a drink tonight at 7:45 and were rudely told, “Not yet guys!” Apparently they don’t open till 8pm despite their website publishing that they open at 4pm.

Apparently it’s a great place to go if you’re looking to get high. Tons of dope baggies all over the sidewalk.

My favorite hang out and mike is a great bartender and so are the drag shows

Always the last stop on a 39th St. pub crawl. Friendly. Good drinks. Nice space. Dimly lit.

Its fun for a drag show and a cocktail! Very friendly! And safe!

Would give bettet atmosphere rating but music was too loud for small crowd had to yell for the person next to me to hear me.

Great proprietor, friendly, diverse crowd, great drinks and happy hour Friday snacks

Our group had a great time celebrating a friends birthday!
