Had excellent lobster roll. Lot of lobster in light toasted roll. Another. Person had grilled trout which they were very pleased with. Another guest had beer battered flounder. This looked lightly battered and less weighty than fish and chips. Atmosphere was wood and stained glass and comfortable, relaxed. read more

Tigers Tale is our local spot here in Montgomery. We went tonight for 4th of July dinner. I am vegan so they helped me adjust and accommodated my ordered of portobello sandwich with pesto sauce and fries. It was delicious and a very large portion. Our family ordered the 3 lobster sliders with homemade chips and 4 kids meals. We really enjoyed it and the service was excellent. Check them out if you haven't already. read more

Lobster sliders were good, mozzarella sticks are fantastic, and their bloody marys were good yet inconsistent. One was made with horseradish the other wasn't. more at https://njbloodymary.com Facebook @njbloodymary Instagram @njbloodymary Twitter @njbloodymary read more

Food was great, we got wings and the seasoned burger. Place was crowded and very loud, definitely a college hangout. But I would definitely be going again. read more

Decent bar/restaurant. I'm bumping it down a star because of the service. I made reservations in advance and told the manager that I was coming with a large group just to watch a specific game, but they put us at a table close to a huge tv that didn't play the game we wanted to watch. We literally had to stand up and watch the game from a much smaller tv that was at the bar. I even had to put on my glasses to see what was on tv. When I asked if they can change the channel to the game we requested, she said no it was against their policy (even though no one was watching the huge tv that was next to our table). read more

Best burger in town! There's not a lot of dining options in Montgomery Township but these folks grill a darn good burger. Quality beef, juicy and perfectly seasoned. Nice charbroiled flavor. And if you ask for rare or medium rare, that's how you get it. To the cheap clown whining about the coupon, you ALWAYS get the equal or lesser meal comp'd when you have a buy one, get one free coupon. Seriously dude, you expected to pay for a 8.00 meal and get the 15.99 one free? I guess the joke's on you! read more

Great place to be especially after a long day of work or even to meet up with old friends and family! Very nice to be there during sporting events as well since they have plenty of TVs and great food! read more

Overcrowded. If there were a fire, we'd all die. I walk in, and immediately have at least two gallons of beer spilled on me. On any given day there's some kind of sports game on the televisions which crowds hundreds of middle-age drunk men like a watering hole in North Africa during desertification. Even on a Wednesday I am not immediately seated. The waitresses are obviously under aged and know not how to serve you. They give you a stupid buzzer thing that practically makes me feel like I'm having a seizure when it goes off. After being sat, I can't have a delightful meal despite the good content of the meals. I am constantly being greeted by people I met seven years ago and I did NOT want to meet again. Overall, I like the food. Hate the place. read more

Great neighborhood sports bar. Full menu. Friendly staff. Excellent specials. You can usually strike up a conversation about the game or have a quiet conversation within your party. Come here once a week or so since we moved to the area. read more

Came in with my friends last Saturday night and had a wonderful time at the bar. Drink service was fast and friendly but get in early because the bar filled up quick. Free popcorn is a nice bar snack and my Cheddar burger was a spot on med rare and being able to watch them cook it adds a fun level to the whole experience. Definitely coming back soon. read more

This place was pretty good for a lunch sandwich. I got the au jus - au jus my face. I would come here more often for lunch (pretty fast service), but it is just at the tipping point of farness for me (15 min drive). read more

The food is pretty good, nothing to get excited about. It is what bars should be like. Most fall short of this. The standard food (burgers, ribs, wings) are well done. The prime rib was disappointing and the steaks are just ok in general. But for a surf and turf for under $20 with sides its a great value. Fish and chips are spot on. They do make the effort to make the menu varied and for this I give them quite a bit of credit. Lobster sliders, mignon tip sandwich w/ bearnaise, a grouper reuben type thing thats great, tilapia is solid. The dinner salad (even with the tiny shrimp) is just right. There is a lot more on the menu that I am interested in trying. I guess this is its main strength. Its a bar/restaurant, but unlike others actually made an effort to create an interesting and varied menu. Furthermore, they were successful at this endeavor. Unlike many restaurants (at any price point) they dont serve just the standard fare. Admittedly some dishes fall very short (the asian sesame yellowfin - but the wasabi mashed was great). But I am curious to try the rest of the food and I like the staff and atmosphere (in the restaurant anyway). This started out as a 3 star review but 4 is really more appropriate. It took me writing a few words about it to realize that. read more

Wings, wings, and more wings! I love the wings here. Not sure if its the size of the wings, although that does make it better, but these things are just really good. I prefer getting wings without the sauce so that I get an idea of how they're made and I get to keep that crispiness from the frying. I definitely enjoy the fact that they're not overcooked but they're cooked just enough so that the cartilage comes off cleanly. I don't like wasting anything on the wings, so when everything falls off the bone, I'm impressed and thoroughly satisfied. The wings are fried so that the actual skin can peel right off, not like some places where the skin and meat are overfried and you can't tell what's what. These are the traditional wings so they have no breading and they really make the night, especially with the different choices of beers this place has to offer. I was going to give 5 stars but some of the other food isn't that great. Their chili is drowned in cheese, when it said it came with cheese, that's not what I was expecting. Their cheese fries are the same. The person who made them either wasn't paying attention or didn't care how much was put on them. There was more cheese than fries, and it wasn't really good cheese. Verdict: Go for Wings, Go for Beer, Don't go for Cheese read more

Me and the SO have stopped by here several times for lunch, since it is not far from his jobsite. There are things I like about this place but also have some "reservations" about a few things. The best thing I like about here is the bar side. A large bar with several TVs, all on sports channels. The music that was playing each of the time we were here was oldies, fun but not overwhelming or obnoxious. The atmosphere is what I like, friendly and comfortable. The thing I was not impressed with was the food (meh). The SO has raved about just about everything he orders from here (he normally orders some kind of fish). I had the pulled pork sliders and while the pork was tender, it was pretty bland. I could not identify what the sauce was because I could not taste it. Now the bleu cheese cole slaw was good (and I requested it on the side). I probably need to try something else. read more

Came here for lunch on a Monday. Inside the place looks like a dark dingy little dove bar/restaurant in a small little town. The inside is moderately right with old wooden chairs and the like. The food though was quite worth it. I come here for the lobster sliders. Having lived in New England it's hard to get lobster rolls south of those island. The lobster sliders here are exquisite. The lobster salad is plentiful, it's not as chunky and New England style but still incredibly delicious and plenty of it. The sliders come in 3 little rolls, the bread is like a soft hamburger roll, served with old bay seasoning chips. I would keep coming back for the lobster rolls because I have yet to find anything comparable for a good price. read more

I've been here quite a few times. It's one of our old stand bys when we can't think of any place to go. There is a small dining area, and some tables around the bar. Table service is much better than the bar service. I dont' think I've ever ordered something that disappointed me. The Tiger's Tale Chicken Sandwich is awesome and the Fish Tacos are fantastic (though i'd order them without cilantro next time) It's good food, cold beers and reasonable prices... Check it out! read more

I went here for the first time recently to join some people for trivia night. Overall, I enjoyed it and I will definitely be willing to go back. But I haven't figured out if I like the place or if it's merely just okay. First, there were 8 of us for trivia, and it took us over an hour to get seated on a Wednesday night. Which tells you how popular this place apparently is. We actually had to start trivia when we were standing, wedged into the corner between a large table and people sitting at the bar. They really pack you in here! (Trivia started at 8 and the first person in our group arrived at 6:45 to put our names down for a table.) I ordered the grouper sandwich and my boyfriend ordered the shrimp and corn chowder and a Guinness. The soup was good, but I didn't feel like there was anything super special about it. My boyfriend raved over it, though, so it may have just not been my thing. The grouper sandwich was large and perfectly cooked, while the fries were the perfect level of crispy. My only complaint is that the sauce and slaw on the grouper was a little sparse and the slaw was not as tasty as it could have been. If they put a little more sauce (or even just a thing of sauce on the side) and kicked up the slaw just one more notch, it would have been perfect. Also, the Guinness seemed to come in a small glass, not sure what was up with that. But it was definitely not a pint. The only other thing I have to say is that it is a little pricy. The entrees were all priced $20+. But it seems like you get good value for the money. I just wouldn't be able to go often. All in all, I look forward to trying out some of their other dishes. read more

Great deal! We went when there was a half priced appetizer special and was happy with the food we good. The grilled clams were great and not overcooked- simple, yet delicious The calamari was crispy and served with a mound of tomato sauce The buffalo wings were a bit over fried with minimal amounts of sauce, but overall, they were not greasy or breadded and tasted somewhat healthy. This is one of my favorite local burger joints and I will definitely be back. PS the rack of lamb is also awesome! read more

I am giving a 4 rating not only for the food but the interior bumps it up a few notches for me. Really like the big rectangular bar which is great if you can get your sports game on the TV in front of you but the bartenders were very friendly and gotta love them cooking on a grill in the middle of the bar space. Where else do they do this? They gotta be careful when busy to serve drinks, serve food, and get back to the grill so don't overcook the food. They said they got it down so that is pretty cool. Really like the fresh popped popcorn to eat with beer as you wait for food or just chill and watch sports on the TV's. They have a nice selection of beers on tap, tried the dogfish and fat tire both IPA's and both very good. For food, started with the buffalo wings. They were a good size, which is always a plus, nice crisp from the fryer, and good sauce. Can't complain, would get that again if go back. Also had the "Original" Tigers Tale Chicken sandwich which is a chicken breast dredged in cajun spices, grilled, and served with jack cheese and sauteed onions on garlic bread and the grouper sandwich which is basically a grouper reuben sandwich on rye. Both very tasty. Both sandwiches came with fries which was the perfect thickness and texture for me. read more

I've worked next door for several months and finally had a chance to grab lunch from The Tiger's Tale. My burger was fantastic. My coworkers won't stop raving about the mashed potatoes. I'll be back and recommend The Tiger's Tale to my customers that are looking for a bite to eat. read more

Went here last night with my parents for my Dad's birthday. We waited about 10 minutes for a table, so we went to the bar. Even though I'm 25 I look like I'm at least a decade younger, so I know the bartenders weren't too pleased to see me sitting at the bar, however short it was of a duration, and despite the fact I only got a diet coke. They gave us free popcorn, and we munched on that. My Dad got a wine, and Mom got an Appletini. The beeper thingie they gave us to alert our table opening up was great-no confusion there. I headed over to the table and then our waitress was there immediately. She was GREAT! Knew the menu inside-out, and was comprehensive and fast. I ordered the Uncle's Tuna Tips Special (comes with onions, cherry tomatoes, and small pieces of toast on a skillet) and the spinach side side. My Dad got the Prime Rib special with broccoli, and Mom got the Lobster sliders. All our food was really good, and filling. I boxed some of mine up and my Dad some of his. Cute and comfortable inside, with a large, inviting bar. I thought it was cool that they grill food in the open in the bar area-very different and nice to see. We've been coming here for probably 15 years now whenever we're in the Princeton area or for a special occasion. It's a small place that can get crowded by the traffic light its at (in recent years that intersection backs up like you won't believe) but still easily reachable and good, accommodating staff. read more

Local eating at it's best. Must haves: 1. Nachos 2. Jersey Fries 3. Grilled Clams read more

Enjoying some Key West conch fritters with banana-run dipping sauce! Yummm! Tasty salad & really looking forward to the sesame encrusted ahi tuna. Our server, Kara, was very personable & attentive! read more

Great local town bar/restaurant. Their burgers are good as well as the wings. I have had the Tigers Tale chicken sandwich a couple of time and its also a good. Portions are above average so order accordingly or you will have a lot of food left over. They have a pretty good beer selection and the mixed drinks are no bad also. They do get busy so be prepared to wait 20-30 mins on Friday/Saturday evenings for a table after 6pm. They are kid friendly, our boys like to go here since they give popcorn from the bar to the kids a the tables to munch on - best to sit in the restaurant side (away from the bar) during happy hour or late evenings just to avoid the mixing of "adult" conversations with the younger ears. read more

Went here last Thursday and had a very good meal. It was scallops over lobster risotto. The only thing keeping it from 5 stars was that I wish there were a little more lobster in the lobster risotto. Everything was cooked to perfection with a nice sauce over the risotto. read more

Who doesn't love Tiger Tale!!?? It's the go to place for locals in the area. Parking lot always packed. They have good sandwiches and burgers. read more

The tale is your classic neighborhood bar. Not pretending to be anything other than that. If you're looking for fine dining/gourmet, go elsewhere. Great burgers and sandwiches and good bar food. Their nachos can't be beat! Cajun chicken salad and the spinach bacon salad are surprisingly good and consistent as well. The brownie sundae is amazing. Grilled clams, jersey fries, and crab dip are also go-tos. Sam Adams beer specials on Thursdays for a deal. Gets pretty crowded for dinner, even during the week...bar is always packed! read more

Probably my favorite place so far in the Princeton area. It's kind of divey but they have a huge menu with great food! I've pretty much always had something from their specials list. The lobster roll was amazing! We went in for Tuesday crab night and it was great and a very good price! We also came in for prime rib Wednesday, it was huge and tasty! There is something for everyone on their menu, it's so extensive! I took away one star because we've only had one friendly server so far out of all the times we have been here. The prices are also a bit high, $5 for a miller light bottle is pushing it especially with the dive bar feel of this place. read more

I love good burgers and a large beer menu ... Tigers Tale has both. Place gets busy but the free popcorn and great food make the wait worth it read more

I completely love this restaurant, even for all its quirks. Although usually crowded, the Tiger's Tale tavern is a great place to get a (somewhat large!) meal that everyone can enjoy, if you have an hour+ to spare! Their service can be slow at times, and the atmosphere sort of loud. But, at least they have added better lighting to the place, as it used to be really dimmly lit and the whole place smokey (thankfully they solved that problem as well). I recommend the calimari, cheese sticks, cheddar burger, and brownie a la mode for a perfect dinner! :) read more

Standard tavern, local sports pub kind of place. The bar is pretty big, always packed, and there are plenty of TVs. The food is decent - nothing spectacular, but they have a lot of choices so everyone will be happy. I did ask if they had fried pickles, which they didn't, but they offered to make them for me. I thought that was pretty cool. My husband likes this place - he can get his bar time in and have a drink and watch the game and I sit at the bar and people watch. Sounds great to me. read more

Went for the Wednesday Prime Rib special. Really good! No wonder this place is always packed.

Good bar food. I was looking for salad but none of the salads caught my eye. I had the grouper reuben sandwich. Good but a little greasy. Fries were good. Started out with nachos and wings. Both very good. Service was very good. read more

Had to ask 3 times just to get a diet soda kept bringing out an ice tea. best was when they combined the tea and soda together in the glass. Ordered sweet sausage and eggplant parm eggplant was mushy with no taste. sausage wasn't sweet it tasted boiled and had hardly any taste at all. The onion soup is awesome and next time if I come I'll be just ordering soup. I'm thinking glass of water. In case they want to mix drinks watered down tea isn't as bad as soda tea combo. read more

The Tiger's Tale - Bars Near Me - Skillman, New Jersey

Great music and solid beer selection! However, I paid almost $5 for a Bud Light because the bartenders neglected to share the beer specials with us and they don't have the specials on a menu anywhere. Didn't have the food, but a pizza came out to the folks next to me and it looked and smelled awesome! Also, there's a grill right behind the bar. I like that they cook right in front of you... nice touch. read more

It's the little things. The food and service is very good. No complaints. But $2.79 for a glass of CLUB SODA -- from a bar gun??? That spoils an otherwise good experience. "Behavior rewarded is behavior repeated." We won't be back. It's the little things. read more

Stopped in here for a drink the other night. I did not have any food so I cannot comment if their food has changed since I last reviewed them back in 2015. The service remains quick and efficient. Bartenders are always very nice and know the regulars well. They also still give out popcorn at the bar, which is a nice touch. read more

Really amazing nachos and bar food. However, I am disappointed with the cleanliness. This is a pandemic. Every restaurant uses paper or online menus. This restaurant used regular menus and didn't clean them. Once we used them, they took them back to give to the next people. Also, when I went in to the bathroom, there were workers with their masks down inside the place. When they saw me, they lifted the masks back up. Although the food is great, it did not feel clean. I will go back, just not during this pandemic. read more

Great place to hang out to have a quick bite or drink the menu is alittl3 bit over priced tho but then again thats princeton

Many selections available on the menu. It is diner fare and well executed at that. Roasted clams are a favorite. Wide assortment of beer and wine. Noise levels are high, but that's the TT's atmosphere. Stop by on St Patty's day for over the top festivities. read more
