The Phoenix is one of the last of Canterbury's proper "hidden gem" pubs. This is a traditional, family-run pub where you can sit and relax with a lovely Sunday roast, pop down for great live music on a Friday or even take part in the fun but challenging pub quiz. It has plenty on offer (including a dart board) but the very best bit is the cosy atmosphere. The landlord and landlady are lovely people and certainly take good care of their patrons. Thoroughly recommended!

After a route march from town heading to the cricket, this pub quite literally rose like a phoenix from the flames. Oasis. Without exaggeration this boozer was a life saver.

Excellent real ales, great pub food, live music regularly - yes, when was the last time you found a pub that, every week, had decent live music for free? There are no pretences here; it is a decent, 'old fashioned pub' as some should be. There is a weekly quiz, outside seating area and a real fire for the colder days. And even better; it's a free house run by the people that own the license, not a chain like almost every other pub in Canterbury. A great find.

Unusual pub, quiet, but in fairness it was a Monday Evening.Seemed to be family run and mainly regular clientele. A little outdated but clean and friendly.
