A gin jungle in the heart of Paris’ 6th arrondissement, Tiger mixes thousands of gin & tonics as well as inventive cocktails perfect for anyone wandering the streets of Saint-Germain-des-Près
Situated in the heart of Saint-Germain-des-Près, Tiger is Paris’ first dedicated gin bar. Lush vegetation covers the entrance, and once inside, exotic decorations greet visitors. Turquoise mosaic tiles and green palm leaf wallpaper mix with blue benches and warm wood tones across three levels, including an upper mezzanine, a room below the stairs, and the bar.
Gin is the star of the show with over 100 bottles to choose from, while 13 signature cocktails give guests the opportunity to see the varieties of flavors available at the bar. Fans of gin & tonics should be particularly curious as Tiger offers over 1000 varieties of the famed two ingredient drink. Additionally, the bar offers a selection of tapas, including Japanese Fried Chicken, which has become a fan favorite.
Please describe Tiger as if you’re explaining the experience of walking through the doors and ordering your first drink.
When you walk down Rue Princesse, you are intrigued by the original and unique facade of Le Tiger, the first Gin bar in Paris. The lush vegetation that covers the storefront and the warm light that illuminates the street invite you to enter. Once inside, you discover an exotic decoration: turquoise mosaic tiles, green palm leaf wallpaper, soft sapphire blue benches and warm tones of wood for a true immersion in the gin jungle. When you sit down, you can choose between the three half-levels of the bar, from the upper mezzanine to the cosy room below the stairs. But whether you are seated in good company in the downstairs room, upstairs for a more intimate atmosphere or under the bright vines of the bar, our team of mixology experts will find you and take the time to explain to you what it does best: gin-based cocktails.
