PHOENIX

I contacted Phoenix about hosting a memorial service. Saskia responded extremely with a quote and we were able to see the space the next day. Saskia was incredibly friendly and kind. The space is lovely and their service is extremely flexible with respect to food and price, which allows you to really design your own event. It's great to have a space like this in Alameda!

I hosted my birthday party here and the staff was soooo helpful. I had some things go very differently on the day of and it was great to have such supportive staff on hand. From initial correspondence to working out the details they were very friendly and personable. Plus the space itself is already so cool and chic!

My family and I had my father’s celebration of life ceremony at the Phoenix last week. We are extremely happy with how everything went. The Phoenix staff was super helpful with all of the planning. I worked closely with Ms. Saskia Winter, the founder. We exchanged many emails and she was always responsive and answering all of my questions, which helped a lot. I also visited the venue twice. The staff, (Julie, Artie, and Lakisha) on the day of the event was also super helpful. Things went smooth once the event started. The space was intimate which made it easy for people to connect and mingle. We had food set up and a few decorations. I’m happy we decided to use the Phoenix to remember and honor my father. I highly recommend hosting an event there. You will not be disappointed.

The Phoenix team was fantastic to work with to plan and host my 50th birthday party! From the moment I walked in the door and met owner Saskia, I felt like she "got" my concept and had great ideas for making it a special evening! I loved that they have a guest portal where all of our communications were tracked and payments were made. My party was a disco theme, so rented their huge disco ball, and brought in pink and purple uplighting to make it a dance party vibe. We also rented the adjacent gallery space which was perfect for the balloon wall and an area for teens to chill away from the dance floor. Saskia suggested renting their photo booth package, and my guests had an awesome time taking the little modern polaroid pics! Their party host, Artie, was awesome and made sure the event ran

I've worked out of the co-working space at Phoenix for a few months and absolutely love it. I was not thriving working from home and this has been a great experience. The staff is friendly and accommodating. Also, the people working remotely here have been welcoming too.
