Stepping into Bar Phoenix feels like traveling back in time to the artistic salons and grand cafés of early 20th-century Paris. The interior is beautifully designed, with authentic vintage aesthetics that capture the elegance and charm of the era. But beyond its stunning ambiance, what truly sets Bar Phoenix apart is its specialty cocktails crafted with Armenian brandy.
Each cocktail tells a story
One of the best bars on Yerevan that somehow manages to combine a very artistic, homey, laid-back interior and a meticulously crafted cocktail list. The thing is, every cocktail here is made with various sorts of Armenian brandy, even the traditional ones like Negroni! And believe me, this is one of the most sophisticated Negroni I've ever tried around the globe.
The food here is also great, but there's almost no place in Armenia that doesn't serve great food. Great drinks, especially so experimental and hypnotically tasty - that's a rare find!
Unprofessional staff, don’t know what’s the ingredients in a cocktail. When I asked for the ingredients they forgot to mention “kvas”, which I am allergic to.
Previously, coupons were given here for a free (and very tasty) cocktail after an excursion to the Ararat factory. They don't give it anymore. And the advertising was good. We've been there three times, twice in 2023, once in 2025, last time we REALLY liked everything, this time we had cocktails, fire, and the food was so-so, although terribly expensive.
On weekends, the bar is full of people, it is better to pre-book by phone. The atmosphere is pleasant, the bird behind the bartender on the wall is great.
There is a very interesting cocktail with bacon, like a kind of "borscht", I recommend trying it, I have never seen anything like it anywhere)))
The place is an entourage.
The cocktails are exclusive, very tasty! We tried everything. Every cocktail is a work of art. They cook in front of you, which is also very cool.
The staff is friendly.
Every time we come to Yerevan, we come here!
A great bar for cocktail lovers. All cocktails are made with cognac, very tasty, original presentation. The place itself is cozy, but small. Very pleasant atmospheric service. We also tried desserts, very tasty
I would like to express my sincere gratitude and praise to the bar! Visiting this place was an unforgettable experience for me. The cozy atmosphere and stylish interior make this place ideal for a pleasant stay.
The bartender deserves special mention - his professionalism, friendliness and talent in creating cocktails are simply amazing. Each drink is prepared with love and attention to detail, which makes a visit to the bar truly special. I recommend all lovers of good service and good mood to take a look at this place.
I was at phoenix on June 9th in the evening, my big omission was that I did not ask the name of the bartender...
All cocktails with cognac — wow! And as a non-lover of cognac, I say that it was made very tasty. The most unexpected combinations (in the spirit of cognac + kvass)
One of the best bars, although the waiters used to give more advice and interesting information about drinks.
A wonderful, cozy bar. The second time I was there. There are a variety of cognac cocktails on the menu, everything we tried was very tasty. Except for beetroot. The staff is very polite and caring.
10/10 for the elegant cocktails, laconic and beautiful atmosphere, unobtrusive and friendly service)
Definitely a 100% recommendation to visit in Yerevan!
A truly worthy place. Such attention to detail is very rare. Delicious food, pleasant staff, the idea of making cocktails in Ararat in Armenia seemed to be in the air, but here it was realized in the best possible way.
The details are really impressive. Even the choice of wall-mounted speakers! Materials, logo embroidery on napkins, shades. Everything is gorgeous! I definitely recommend it
We came to this place after a recommendation from the Ararat factory.
We tried a large number of different cocktails with cognac, all very cool, especially impressed by the cocktail with kvass, an unusual combination, but very cool.
The food here is also very good. I took filet mignon and it was great both in roasting and in taste.
Pros: delicious food, interesting cocktails, very warm atmosphere
Cons: godlessly miscalculated. In our account, half of the positions were left, they were overpaid 1.5 times, and they were discovered only the next day. It's a shame, it's not the first time I've come to them (In general, check the receipt carefully
A great bar where they make good cocktails based on Ararat cognac, original and classic. It's atmospheric, a DJ plays on the second floor on weekends. I recommend it!!!!
I want to return to Yerevan for this institution! Very tasty cocktails on Ararat, alcohol is not felt (but it is there, intoxication sets in))) The service is very pleasant, on a high level. Beautiful decoration of the hall.
We couldn't open the door to the bar, we asked the bartender through the window how to get to them) thank God he was happy to explain to us)
I recommend you to visit!
The bar is about nothing like the Armenian cognac. Cocktails for 800 rubles are too overpriced. First, you need to learn how to make delicious food so that you don't mind giving away that kind of money.
Great place! Interesting author's cocktails based on cognac, as you can guess Ararat :)) It's incredibly delicious! But as I always recommend, come and make up your mind! I definitely recommend it!

It's a great place, like a gem among other bars. I don't drink cognac, but here I tried probably one of the best cocktails. The most pleasant service and pleasing to the eye picture. I really wanted to return to the bar the next day!
Nice cozy place. Right now (30.09.2024, 23:01) the bartender girl liked her calmness and confidence. We came to the Eurasian Economic Forum from St. Petersburg.
The place is authentic, with fine cuisine. Camembert baked on the coals of the tower. The music is a little loud. The waiters are good. Medium speed feed.
I recommend the place to visit.
Atmospheric bar) A very pleasant atmosphere! We arrived here immediately after the tour to the Ararat factory. We tried cherry-flavored cognac and a cocktail based on it, we really liked it! I recommend you to visit!
A wonderful place with its own atmosphere and delicious cocktails on Ararat cognac
Everyone will find something to their liking 👌
Be sure to visit this place while walking around Yerevan at night)
The drinks are great. Cocktails are original, complex, delicious, for any request.
If you do not find what you need in the map, the bartenders will do anything for your request.
There is a very nice hostess at the reception
Very nice interior
Aged negroni is definitely worth a try!
PS. We added Ararat Cherry to the bill and the "best" bartender confidently said that he had just given it to us :))) Well, OK, we'll write it off for a hard weekend, but it's better to pay at the counter in fact ;)
Negroni is still worth it!
I'll start with the negative. The food is just disgusting. The mashed potatoes and steak were brought frankly cold. They were not very tasty, I did not like anything. The only plus is that the steak was the roast I asked for, which is rare for Yerevan) but this did not make it any tastier:(
Now to the positive. The cocktails are delicious. A lot of options for every taste. There is also a seasonal menu. We had honey ararat and cocktails based on it. It's just a fairy tale. I was also offered a cocktail with cognac and pomegranate juice from the hidden menu - I recommend it. In general, it is worth visiting only because of the wonderful cocktails based on Ararat cognac)

A very remarkable bar, thanks to the cocktails on Ararat. I didn't know before the visit that you can make cocktails with cognac, and they are very tasty.
I was extremely glad to visit and meet a sociable company, even though I came alone.
Thanks!
It's a very atmospheric place.
All cocktails are made with cognac.
Great job and cocktail tips from the bartender.
The best place is behind the counter.
I really liked this bar.
This is my favorite bar not only in Yerevan, but also in the top 10 in the world. Thanks for the super non-standard and delicious cocktails. Before you, I didn't think I could drink cognac)
An incredibly atmospheric place! Each drink is a wonderful combination of flavors. You can come here as a restaurant, because the food is much better than in many other places. There are no unnecessary ingredients, the taste of each component of the dish is vividly felt
Cool interior and amazing cocktails on Ararat. I would never have thought that I would like a cocktail with cognac, since in general I do not even like the smell of this drink, but here I am delighted. Keep in mind that there may be a long wait for the bar menu in the evening.
A unique place where all cocktails are made with cognac. Well, where else would you try a cocktail with cognac on meat broth or a cocktail with beetroot? But don't worry, there are also less exotic combinations. Everyone will find something to their liking here. We were in Yerevan for only a week, but eventually we came here three times.
Cocktails are a delight!
A must-visit in Armenia!
The only negative is that they close early)

Delicious cocktails on Ararat. There is a permanent cocktail menu and a seasonal one. You can also have a snack. In my opinion, it is more comfortable to enter from Pushkin St.

Great bar, I tried apricot ararat, I advise you to drink on ice. We also made a cool sour, the bartenders are great. The only thing that didn't impress me was the steak.
