The Phoenix is a short drive west from the Strip, and it's easy to find. You won't have any problems spotting the building, since it's painted with a mural of a phoenix rising out of the flames. The crowd here is mixed, with the inexpensive drinks, cheap (but good) bar food and frequent entertainment drawing a diverse audience. Video games and video gambling, darts, dancing and a steady line-up of special events keep things interesting at this gay bar. Show up on Funderwear night and if you're willing to hang out in your undies, you'll get an all-you-can drink deal for $5. Like most Vegas bars, smoking is allowed inside, which may be surprising to out-of-town visitors. Luckily, there's also an outdoor patio if you need a break from the smoke.
