What a fun vibed place! The whole bar is circus themed and the drinks and food have a great whimsy to them. They change up their menu pretty frequently so we got their New Year 2026 menu. For food we tried the Flamin' Hot Mozz Sticks which were so much fun and way bigger than we expected. Some major cheese pulls from them! I would definitely order them again. Additionally, some of the drinks we got were the Cotton Candy Negroni, Beneath the Cards, Spirit Talker, and an Aperol Spritz. All the drinks were beautifully crafted and yummy. Also a huge extra note is that the menu is Celiac friendly! They have a separate fryer for anything that is gluten free. Yay! We all sat at the bar since we didn’t have reservations so we couldn’t get a table. They have some standing tables too so there are a few options. If you can get a reservation for a group, I’d definitely do that. Parking is a little challenging outside. They have their own parking lot and we were able to get a spot easily since we went a little earlier in the night, but it gets busy so I’d definitely plan for that. The lot also have free parking for 2 hours if you let the host know inside that you need that. Overall we had a great time!

You know I’ve been here two times now, and I hate to say that I look for things wrong everywhere I go, but that’s just who I am. I’m a critic. I can’t find a single thing wrong with this place. The service is always impeccable no matter who you interact with. Everybody’s just so nice and welcoming, except for the host. He almost had this disgusted look on his face that we were even there almost like he was bothered.
However, the drinks are impeccable. The bartenders are outstanding. I give the vibe 10 out of 10 once you pass the host.

I’ve been wanting to try out Tiger Bar for a while. Finally I was able to make it and it was a very cool place. I love the circus theme of the bar and even the big wagon style booths. It’s really felt like I was in a circus from an early time. The service was great and the atmosphere was super vibe. I highly recommend coming with a few folks to make it even more entertaining.

I’m not one to leave negative reviews; however, I’m genuinely shocked by how unfortunate our experience was at Tiger Bar and would be remiss not to share. We only ended up here because we were hungry and left Geist since they had already stopped serving food for the evening—which, in hindsight, was our first mistake.
This place has the potential to be a great late night spot with good vibes and killer cocktails, but it fell so utterly short that Danny DeVito looks tall in comparison.
We were seated at the bar with barely a greeting (fine, whatever), but the bartender we had was so shockingly rude, condescending, inattentive, and made us feel like our presence was an inconvenience. My martini was genuinely bad, and it took over an hour of sitting at the bar before we even received water and that was only after explicitly asking.
If you order the baked brie, be sure to request silverware if you’d like to eat it properly because it won’t be provided otherwise. Spoiler alert: we never received silverware as we were too apprehensive to make additional requests given how bothered the bartender seemed by us. Despite all of this, my husband still tipped over 25% because we’re not chumps or new to dining and drinking out.
I’d strongly suggest going literally anywhere else.
That said, credit where it’s due: the hostess, one of the two bartenders (unfortunately not the one we had), and the gentleman who brought our food were all extremely lovely.
We’ve supported Tiger Bar for years and considered it a reliable spot as Nashville locals. That’s why it was frustrating to have a longstanding reservation made well in advance canceled just days before the holidays because of a corporate takeover. We were left to figure out alternative plans on our own, without any real effort from management to acknowledge the inconvenience or make amends.
The experience made it clear that loyal local customers come second to corporate bookings and tourist traffic, which was disappointing to see.
Unfortunately, we won’t be back.

The door greeter this evening came across as quite pretentious. We left immediately after entering and will not be returning. A more welcoming first impression would make a big difference.
Tiger Bar has been our go-to place for years. As Nashville locals and frequent patrons, we had a reservation booked two months in advance that was canceled one week before, due to a corporate buyout, leaving us scrambling to make last-minute holiday plans. We were expected to accept the cancellation without any reasonable effort to make things right. Or even a sincere apology.
It’s clear this business prioritizes corporate events and tourists over loyal local customers. That’s incredibly disappointing!
We will not be returning.
Tiger Bar has been a go to spot for special hangs and fun times since the opening. However, they canceled a big reservation for Christmas that I had on the books for months due to a major buy out. More of the corporate Nashville being considered than regular customers! What a shame :(
First time coming here and it didn’t disappoint. The decor inside is well done and the circus theme is fun. I ordered the Whoville and was not expecting that level of presentation for a drink. Definitely check this place out. I know I’ll be coming back for another round.

Fantastic! A really lovely atmosphere, great presentation, and delicious cocktails. You can't really ask for much more. I was staying near the convention center and it was 100% worth the detour to see this place.
I loved my experience here this was my first time and it was amazing !! The female and male bartender were on point. Experience was 10 out of 10. Definitely try the monkey brains cocktail

It was genuinely not that good for the price. Drinks weren’t creative as much as just over priced… (shooting fruit punch into a glass of champagne shouldn’t be 15 dollars…..) The food also just wasn’t that good. Over seasoned and again, extremely overpriced for what it was…
You can skip this one. You won’t miss anything. (Like I thought I was)
This place was amazing! The staff were great and funny. The drinks were unique and delicious.
