Phil's Place is an area in northwest Little Haiti in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. The compound is messy and is surrounded by wooden fences and palings. Phil Cassidy, a self-proclaimed Vietnam veteran and gun expert, lives in an old trailer in the compound by 1986. In the trailer, gun racks on the wall display several handguns, submachine guns and rifles. The bedroom consists of a bed with camouflaged mattress and an American Flag-styled pillow. Several wooden shacks and an old excavator are standing on the property which appears as a scrap yard. In a hangar-like hall, Phil keeps his army like Patriot. A Hidden Package can be found in the building with low columns in front of the entrance in the norhwest corner. In addition, there are boxes, barrels and derelict cars in the compound. Inside Phil's trailer, there are several posters including one for Fun Bags a film advertised in Grand Theft Auto III.

When Tommy goes to Phil's Place to receive the weaponry, Phil tells him to obtain his weaponry by knocking the weaponry off the backs of a Mexican gun running squad's trucks. Shortly after the completion of the mission, Phil will call Tommy and tell him that wants to get plastered with Tommy.
