Tiger Tiger

I’m sitting on the fence here!!!
Its all down to a number of factors 1. How drunk I am 2. How many muscle bound knobheads they have let it and 3. How loud they are playing the 80’s music

I attended a works christmas do on Friday at Tiger-​Tiger that cost £30.
I have to say I was very disappointed the Buffett was very basic some chicken curry and something in gravy… Rice. Some sliced ham bread rolls, and doughnuts and fudg brownies cut up on a plate. It was meant to be restocked but at one point the table was empty.
There were no christmas party items like hats or crackers.; though wine was provided .
A big disappointment; if you are looking for a good christmas do avoid at all cost.

friendly staff. can be expensive. like fact that they take your photo on a night out. nice and clean

Had a Karaōke booth for a friends birthday, it was pretty good, had the booth for an hour and they gave us two free jugs of alcohol which is a plus. Just im saying to everyone though if you don’t bring quite a bit of bob (money) in your wallet, after you two free jugs you have to pay, which gets a bit hefty.

Booked a Karaōke room for a Birthday Party and had an excellent time. Drinks were reasonably priced and the place was really busy. Obviously popular with the locals.

We went to Tiger Tiger for our office Christmas party and cannot recommend it enough! We all had a great time, the food was really good, the alcohol even better and to even surpass this was the brilliant staff who could not have been more helpful despite it being a very busy night in December. A big thumbs up from me and we will definitly be going again

Yeah, it’s OK. It’s obviously a chain bar, so you get what you expect. The décor is nice and it does have an edge to it, although you can get some right idiots in here at the weekend.
Work reserved one of the booths for a private party a couple of time but it always gets invaded by strangers less than half way through the night, and they refuse to leave even if you are nice and tell them the area is reserved. Last time I was there I ended up leaving because there was a fight and our booth got taken over bit by bit.
Went here on a week night for my Birthday with a mate and had a lovely time though. They had a resident dj in and he was incredible. This is not one of my favourite places as the mix of people varies so much and as much as I like to see pretty girls roller-​skating around me in leotards, the refreshments can be a bit pricey as well even if the selection of drinks is very good.

In parallel collections entitled ‘Songs of Innocence’ and ‘Songs of Experience’, the Romantic poet William Blake highlighted the differences between a tiger and a lamb. However, times change and boundaries blur and Tiger Tiger allows the two contrasting animals to collide.
Let me explain. Anyone who has a desire to be pushed around like livestock should go to Tiger Tiger. The bouncers here are disgustingly rude and make it perfectly clear that their job is to suspect you of a crime, not to protect your safety and well-​being.
I had the bare-​faced cheek to once ask a bouncer if I could use the upstairs toilet here.
‘NO’, he yelled.
‘Why?’ I responded
’BECAUSE I SAID SO
OK, I respect your authority. But could you give me a reason?
BECAUSE I SAID SO. NOW DO YOU WANT TO LEAVE?‘
Of course I did! I had only entered this place out of cold, cruel peer pressure and if there was anything I was sure of, it was that I wanted to get out. However, cold, cruel peer pressure still maintained its cold, cruel grip.
‘No, not really. That’s why I want to use the loo to be honest. Otherwise I’d just go home and use the selection of toilets me have there.
DO YOU WANT ME TO GET MY MATE?
Errr…’ I wasn’t intimidated, I was just getting pretty desperate by this point so I turned my back on my new friend and went downstairs.
I later heard that the bouncers here broke up a certain oral act on the club’s threshold and chucked out the ‘vocal’ woman, while letting the ‘listening’ man return. Oh how times have changed since Blake.

I have the honour of being led out of Tiger Tiger via the back entrance by the bouncer for a ‘crime’ I did not commit and the incident in question wasn’t even my fault!
I’ll get to the aforementioned incident in a minute after I give you some of my thought on Tiger Tiger as a venue. I think quite a few people have hit the nail on the head its costs a lot to get in, the drinks are expensive, the staff are trout pouting rude and the bouncers? Well! A group of us just went out to paint the town red and we ended up in Tiger Tiger. By this time we were pretty far gone but not rowdy, it’s just we had spent enough that we weren’t going to spend a lot in this overpriced bar. Anyway a friend and I decided to sit in this chair thing and if memory serves it was like an enclosed seat with teeth on it or something. After a few minutes a couple of our party thought it would hilarious to turn the enclosed seat around so it was facing the wall. Seeing as we couldn’t be bothered to move we just continued to talk and all of a sudden the chair span round where we were man handled by the bouncer and escorted out. Not particularly happy about that considering it’s not as though we were causing a nuisance and I think the bouncers were being overzealous.

Tiger Tiger is a large nightclub on Greyfriars Road in Cardiff. Despite being situated just a few doors down from fellow super club, Oceana, Tiger Tiger often fills up on a Friday and Saturday night and usually has a half-​decent atmosphere once the drink begins to flow.
Many people despise this club with unbridled passion, but personally, I quite like it. Slightly (and only slightly) more upmarket than its neighbouring competition, Tiger Tiger has a lot to offer those on a night out in the capitol. With two floors of space to play with, the club offers a stylish restaurant in addition to the many bars throughout the club itself.
With regular themed nights and a decent stock pile of revolving DJ’s, this is a good place to end a night out in the city… assuming you’re not too drunk to get in.

Hmmm, Tiger Tiger, this one is a difficult one for me. Sometimes I love it, sometimes I loath it. I have been to TIger Tiger when it has been absolutely heaving and takes about 15 minutes to get a drink which has led to me holding 3 drinks at one time, looking quite the alcho, just so I don’t have to queue again. Tiger TIger is popular and this can’t be a bad thing, it does like to mix things up and you will find different music on the different dance floors.
If you’re able to get VIP in here, then I definitely recommend it, it keeps you away from the hustle and bustle and massively reduces your bar waiting time, more time for the grooving.
The drinks are gonna be pricey but the music is good and the décor is pretty nifty, I think it’s quite possible to have a very good night here, but equally you may have a very bad one.
Oh yeh and you can eat here in the day time, very weird indeed, look out for the cheap meal deals they often put on.

Tiger Tiger, used to be the classy establishment that most of the Valley crew would head to and pretend they were someone important. And that really sums the place up.
Full of people who think they’re something.
To get in is expensive, when you’re in drinks are scandalously priced and the staff are rude and bouncers even ruder.
When empty the place looks smart, when full of the clientèle, I don’t think Tiger Tiger wanted, the place looks trashy.
Another thing that put me off recently is the poor buggers wandering town with those big signs advertising lunch. I’m not a fan of this method of advertising and again I think it just looks cheap.
Pretentious, ugly and over-​priced, don’t go to Tiger Tiger for a refined time. Go, if you fancy roughing it with the old pumped up arms and short skirt brigade.
Although, I do hear the Karaōke booths are quite fun…

Tiger Tiger has never really been my scene, but since being dragged along one night, I feel I need to warn people about the foulness that is this place.
This is the kind of place that bills itself as being classy and upmarket, while really it’s just full of people wearing pink boob-​tubes and heavy golf hoops. There is always a busy and rowdy atmosphere, and is certianly not the kind of place that you could ever have anything resembling a real conversation. As for the morals on the dancefloor? Let’s just not go there.
But I honestly had the worst night of my life in this place, mainly due to the rudeness of the bouncers. My friend became ill (mumps actually, not alcohol) and was sick in the bathroom, only to be dragged out with no excuses and thrown out on the street. Despite all my protestations and the fact that I clearly wasn’t drunk in the slightest.
Oh well, we just won’t be back. Ever.

As far as clubs in Cardiff go I guess it’s OK (N.B. this is not a compliment by any stretch of the imagination). It is literally labrynthine and when it’s busy, it turns into some sort of Where’s Wally except more like Where Are My Friends and so it sort of looks like a mess of drunken, lost people — which it essentially is. The décor is quite tasteful and well-​maintained, I’m guessing because it doubles up as a food venue in the day so can’t get away with horrific décor on the basis that people might be too drunk to, well, see.
My experience here was heavily marred by slipping on that huge, Beauty-​and-​the-​Beast-​esque staircase connecting the front bit to the upstairs, and ending up in A&E. So yeah, keep an eye out on those stairs. They are slippy.

Think I am still probably recovering from the last time I visited Tiger Tiger and we had to pay £8 to get in only to find it pretty empty inside and the drinks so expensive that we could only effort a couple of drinks each. Because of all the different rooms, it can appear quiet even if there are a lot of people there.
They try to appeal to an upmarket clientale but the crowd is no different from anywhere else in town. I have also been there to one of their Karaōke booths which was great fun because you and your friends get a space and personal service. Still we didn’t stay there after the session finished.
They do cheap lunch too and apparently the food is good so might give that a go next time.

Going to Tiger Tiger is like going to watch Arsenal play. All looks beautiful but never delivers and you come out £50 out of pocket.
You can actually feel the smugness radiating off the walls. The prices suggest it’s class, even the dark marbled décor suggests it’s classy. However it really isn’t. The money alone to get in is an insult as you pay threw the nose on drinks too. Can’t say I’m a huge fan of the general crowds there either.
However what is good is if you book a booth if it’s your birthday. For a £50 deposit you will get the equivalent in drink vouchers. I think I bought about 6 jugs of long Island ices tea with a 50% voucher off. Suffice to say they lasted me the night.
Tiger Tiger, also has food during the day. Not wasting my time I’ll just say very expensive and not very good either.

Tiger Tiger is obviously a big chain. However, I don’t feel like I can leave it out when I’m writing about the places to go in Cardiff because it is such a good place to go. It is also a regular haunt of people looking for all different kinds of music.
Monday night is Vodka Island, which is when the club is most filled with students. You can go any other night of the week but Monday is the night that we frequent the most. On Saturday nights, it is over-​21s only — obviously students can go here but a lot of us are too baby-​faced to get in!
Downstairs there is a good seating area, part of the restaurant. Then the main bar and a small dance floor playing RnB (on the way to the loos and to the cloakroom so you will probably be pushed around a lot if you make this your spot). There is also Lucky Voice karaōke — there are small booths which will comfortably hold 6 people (but have been known to hold a lot more!).
There is also a private area, with a door, which are normally filled up with societies.
Upstairs there is a new disco room, with a lit-​up floor. There are a lot of little booths which aren’t private really because you don’t book them, and there’s no door. However, some people… ahem… seem to THINK they’re private… and act accordingly. I would avoid these unless you realllllly need a sit down.
There is another little room, playing club music. To be honest, it’s not a great room. I’d recommend the main rooms upstairs or downstairs.

When I first heard about this venue I thought it would be an ordinary club but it is surprisingly a good restaurant with nice deals during lunch! You get really good quality food for not a lot of money!
I can’t say much about it nightine cause I never been there at that time but the fact that they have private karaōke rooms let me very interested!
This is a pretty good place to eat during a weekend shopping day!

Very much a student place due to the online offers available and lunch time discount menu.
An alright place to start the night for one or two, especially as there’s usually a good offer on, but I wouldn’t spend a duration here.
The karaōke can be fun, but is also massively tacky at times!
Décor is lovely though — very yuppie chic!

Tiger Tiger is located just off Queens Street. Its a good venue for private hire and is very well decorated.
Drinks are expensive and entrance isnt cheap after 10pm either. This place is ok but theres alot better in Cardiff.

Pourquoi: Courue par les stars du rugby gallois et située à quelques encablures du château de Cardiff entre le boulevard de Nantes et Queen St.
L’ambiance: Branchée.
Le plus: On y trouve le nec plus ultra de la technologie.
