Get ready for the ultimate night out with your friends at Phineas! Introducing Price Crash, our most interactive event of the week. Starting at 19:00 and going all the way through to close every Thursday, this is the perfect way to kick off your weekend early.
What’s the deal? Imagine a bar that turns into a live stock market – that’s right, drink prices rise and fall all night based on their popularity! We call it the Drink Exchange. One minute your favourite cocktail might be a steal, the next it could be a splurge. It’s all about timing and strategy, just like the real stock exchange.
Why you’ll love it:
- Dynamic Pricing: Watch the screens to see which drinks are crashing and which are soaring. Will you grab a bargain or splurge on a high-demand drink?
- Interactive Fun: The thrill of the market makes every order an adventure. Rush to the bar when prices drop and feel the excitement of a true stock market crash!
- Perfect for Groups: Whether you’re celebrating, catching up, or just looking for a fun night out, Price Crash is the ideal setting for a memorable evening with friends.
So, gather your crew and head to Phineas this Thursday. Don’t miss out on the chance to experience the highs and lows of The Drink Exchange. It’s not just a night out – it’s an event you’ll be talking about all week!

Find us on Google Maps.- Bar policy
If you're visiting one of our bars, familiarise yourself with our bar entry policy, designed to keep us all safe. Please note unless specified last entry is Midnight.
We want you to feel comfortable, safe, and at home when you're spending time in our bars or event spaces which is why we uphold a number of safety initiatives in all our bars including specific measures against spiking and harassment. All our bar staff have also undertaken Drink Spiking Awareness and Active Bystander training.- Do I need a ticket to get in?
It's best to think of free bar event tickets as a way to register your interest rather than guaranteeing access. We recommend booking a free ticket as we use this information to work out if a venue will be near capacity and also to send you a reminder about the event nearer the time (and for no other marketing purposes). However, having or not having a ticket will not determine if you can access an event as we operate a first-come-first-served policy for accessing the bars, so if you are on campus – feel free to pop by and join in if there’s space on the night.
Using the ramp outside of 25 Gordon Street to access the ground floor, head through reception taking a left turn just before Gordon's Cafe. Using the first lift (not the second, double set of lifts), ride the lift to the third (3rd) floor. Enter Phineas using the doors on the right hand side
