The Tigermen Den - Exterior of the venue

Community events are cool. But for the Tigermen Den they're at the expense of the surrounding…read moreresidents in regard to ease of access to their homes. Just this evening, my partner and I attempted to return home after a long gig day. However, our attempts were thwarted when driving down our street and we encountered cones at the intersection of Clouet and Dauphine. Seeing there was a crowd down the block, we rerouted and attempted to access our home via Royal and Louisa, but were stopped by a man with a white van who had blocked off the street. We convinced the man to move his van, stating we're residents of the block and needed to park and access our home. After encountering a line of city trashcans blocking Royal Street halfway down the block between Louisa and Clouet, we were able to safely navigate through a parting crowd, eventually making a left onto Clouet. IF the Tigerman Den had alerted residents who lived in close proximity to their venue of events and (unauthorized) street closures, this review may not have appeared on The Tigermen Yelp page. However, this is not the only infraction committed by the venue. Within the recent years, the Den has allowed cars to park too close to the intersection of Royal and Clouet streets, thus obstructing the view of both drivers and pedestrians. Our neighbors have contacted the Den via Instagram to alert the to the safety hazard presented with no avail. Having permits and official public safety personnel onsite for events like the one tonight are imperative to ensure the safety of attendees and residents. The Den ought to consider pursuing these legitimacies for future events.

My now-husband and I had our wedding reception at the Tigermen Den in October 2018 and we couldn't…read morehave had a better time! Matthew and Phinnie were so incredibly helpful not just day-of but throughout the entire planning process. They even helped us coordinate having our ceremony at the cute Clouet Gardens directly across the street. The space was perfect for our size wedding (about 80 people) and they provided almost everything (tables, chairs, water coolers, bar carts, etc.) and had a full kitchen we were able to use. Matthew had sent us a blueprint of the Den as well as an inventory list ahead of time which was extremely helpful when figuring out exactly what else we needed and where everything should go. It also allowed us to keep our costs down. That being said, we were also very thankful they let us stock our own bar and did not require us to use their preferred caterer like most venues do. We were able to have the kegs on the back porch, the bar stocked with our favorite spirits and the pizza stacked ceiling high - just like we had hoped! Other things we were very happy with was the amount of street parking around this area. My dad was worried about this in particular and thought we would need to hire valet but we decided not to and we had no trouble whatsoever. Also because the venue is so charming, we didn't have to do very much decorating; again, keeping the costs down. They allowed us to hire an attendant (who kept the bathrooms stocked and picked up after guests, keeping the area clean throughout the night) and a bartender through them which was very convenient. We were glad they had SONOS speakers throughout the venue, as well as on the back porch, since we worked hard on our reception playlist and was able to play it off our iPad without having to source a PA system. It goes without saying that I would high recommend the Tigermen Den for any event - big or small!
