Tigín Irish Pub - Classic Cheesey Double Stack - Irish Pub Near Me - Stamford, Connecticut

Good experience. Reasonable staff, tasty burger, the beer was beer. Wednesday after work. I'd give this place a four, but the current overall rating of 3.5 is inappropriately low, so giving a 5 because math. read more

Food- burger was RAW (I mean RAW.. and yes we asked for medium rare but c'Mon! Sear the thing! Service - TERRIBLE.. kindly asked for them to recook and they got angry saying we asked for medium rare and that's what that was... she begrudgingly took it back to chef When they brought it back.. no fries. Just a plain now OVERCOOKED burger.. Just because we KINDLY asked for it to be medium rare, not raw like it just came out of the supermarket packaging.. Very Disappointing. Poor management. Never again. read more

I had an amazing experience at Tigin after reopening. My server, Isabel, was amazing. She is so personable - ask for her if you come! This is the best pint of Guinness in Stamford! The vibe is hard to beat, classic pub read more

Came here for drinks with friends and had a nice experience. It was a bit off the beaten path, but I really liked it. The inside is nicely decorated and cozy. It definitely feels like a nice, Irish bar. They have your basic beers and drinks that you'd expect at an Irish bar. Service is decent and the servers are kind. The prices are very fair as well. Would come back. read more

I immediately felt comfortable once we walked in as the decor and set up was warm and inviting. My very Irish friend and I had a fabulous time there today. I will definitely be back for the Best Shepherds pie everrrrr!!! Thank you so much! read more

Tigin is the premier pub in Stamford, every time I come into town I always make a pitstop. You cannot find a cozier place in the city - from the roaring fireplaces to the well-adorned walls, the ambience is perfect. The bartender Sophie was charming and friendly, chatted with my girlfriend and I while we sat and had a delicious meal, and poured the FINEST Guinness I've had in a long time. Tigin has long been my favorite, and the service last night yet again reminded me why! Will absolutely be stopping by again the next time I'm in the area. read more

I love this place. You literally feel like your in a pub on the countryside of Ireland. The food is always so good. My personal favorites are the shepards pie and the chicken quesadilla, but all of the food is incredible. The service is great and the staff is always very friendly and helpful! The Guinness drinks are always great too they do black and tans, snakebite, all that good stuff. They also rotate seasonal cocktails as well which is pretty awesome. There's also usually live music every week as well which is pretty cool I think they are the only place that does live music in downtown Stamford. Oh and not to mention, there's TVs everywhere! If you want a great spot to watch the game but actually drink good drinks and eat good food, don't go to Bobby vs or Buffalo Wild Wings, go to TIGINS! read more

There was a time when Tigin was the only place we would go to. Nowhere else, because the staff, management, and food were phenomenal. Sadly that is not case anymore. Change of management and transient staff have made Tigin a very disappointing experience. I can honestly say that we will never go there again. One positive point - the Bouncers are very professional and courteous. read more

They have the best outdoor seating in the summer! The bar is great in the winter too because they have a cozy vibe and a fireplace. The service is always great and the bartenders are really friendly and knowledgeable. Don't sleep on the fish tacos they're so delicious! The manager was amazing too and made our experience phenomenal. read more

I once came here in the morning to drink beer and watch soccer and never left. I've been here 20years surviving on bangers and mash and pints of Boddington's. Slainte! read more

I have been coming here for years, and I have never been disappointed. The staff are so welcoming, they will remember the regulars but treat all new people the same. Truly the best Irish pub outside of Ireland. The food is great and always changing. Nothing negative to say, the best pub for hundreds of miles! read more

I really love this place - the food, the atmosphere, everything is normally great! Giving three stars because I wanted to place a takeout order today and was told that they aren't allowed to accept takeout orders over the phone - online or in person only. I actually tried to order online before calling and the pickup time couldn't be changed from "tomorrow at 4pm" and it's been like that for the last week so I finally decided to just call. My lunch break doesn't allow for the travel time plus having to order and wait in person for it to be ready. Huge bummer & inconvenience! Hoping this changes!! read more

Tigín Irish Pub - the start order on the iphone - Irish Pub Near Me - Stamford, Connecticut

So Tigin's has been ranked as the Irish pub in Connecticut, and it is certainly easy to see why. With charming decor and cozy seating alcoves, it feels as as if you're stepping back into 19th century Ireland. Thus, Tigin's stands as the ideal spot to enjoy a delicious pint of Guinness, perfectly poured of course, or the place to catch up on the latest game. Equally as excellent, Tigin's bar menu offers yummy options to round out your afternoon happy hour. We went with a round of slides that simply dripping in succulent goodness. Maybe it was the Hawaiian bun or the Coleman's mustard, but the fact that our slider order came with only three little beauties made for some tense moments as my bestie and hungrily eyed up the last slider. The only solution to avoid a happy hour war... order another round of sliders! After sliders, we chowed down on some crispy chips (fries). Tigin's offers two styles of the babies, fat and thin. Believe me, fellow foodies, when I say that in this case fat is where it's at. The bigger crisp where defiantly crispier and seemed to really embrace some of their signature dipping sauces. Ask your bartender to guide you on this sauce selection, and be warned, occasionally, they have curry sauce.. Yum! Again, hands down, this is an amazing Irish pub, one that is sure to become your pot of gold at the end of a long day. read more

The staff is lovely! They make my day! Tigins is my favorite spot in Stamford. The hummus and boxty are a must.

This is NOT an Irish Pub! The inside does not look or feel like an Irish pub! The food was not good either. The Reuben was nothing to write home about. The bread was hard has a rock. The corned beef was ok and the cole slaw was awful! The grilled chicken sandwich with mozzarella, roasted peppers and lettuce was disgusting! The chicken was dry, the mozzarella cheese was "wet" and there was only one tiny piece of red roasted pepper. The lettuce was wilted and warm. The chips were the only good thing. My daughter asked for stone ground mustard (a staple with a Reuben sandwich) and she was told we told "we don't have it, but we do have our house made honey mustard." It's good, but not at the cost. My wine was OK, but not worth $13.00 a glass. Kyle never checked on us to see if we needed anything. Never offered my daughter another Diet Coke. The restaurant wasn't busy, it was a Thursday night. - If you LOVE Irish food, do NOT go here! read more

Wish bartender talk to you a bit more , food is great brunch is great too , a little pricey but worth it

The service was awful and the food was terrible. The cocktails were of low grade and I asked for top shelf. The Manager refused to give me her name and was verbally abusive to me. I am Irish and through all my travels which are many I have never been treated so rudely at any Pub or any other dinning establishment. So disappointed.... RUN, as fast as you can... read more

I love Tigin. I don't live downtown but I still manage to get there all the time. If I did live downtown, I would probably die from liver failure at Tigin. Great music, great cocktails, GREAT craft beer selection. They some how manage to /generally/ dodge the annoying, bro-y college crowd. Some still sneak it, but mostly Tigin is a great place to find a little corner and be in your own world. Lastly: fireplaces. read more

New manager/mgmt have bad attitudes and are not friendly. It's a shame because it has great history and is a great location. We wont go back there with the current manager/mgmt in place. Plenty of other more friendly and customer centric spots in the area. read more

Ordered Cole slaw and wings for pickup, not bad. The wings were pretty good but not amazing, but that seems to be the case for wings in this area unfortunately. They were smaller than I expected for "jumbo" wings (although I can only hope it means they were the higher quality ones not full of hormones). read more

Tigín Irish Pub - Jumbo Wings - not really jumbo but pretty good. - Irish Pub Near Me - Stamford, Connecticut

I think their food creativity for an Irish bar was impressive. Here are some elements of what I had...smoked salmon bites with fresh smoked salmon, capers and a cream cheese sauce on a dough like circle thingy, this was a nice change from your regular bar app. The chicken quesadilla thingy, were filled with chicken, cheeses and cilantro, I love cilantro, and surrounded in a dumpling-like textured wrap, topped with diced tomatoes, red onions and drizzled with sour cream. This quesadilla was really tasty but lacked that crispness that generally provides you with that toothsome feel. But all in all a very creative take on the regular quesadilla. The bartender slash manager was very attentive to our needs and kept busy by checking in on all the other patrons. I would definitely come back to try their other fare. read more

This is an update to my previous review. It was good to hear from the restaurant as they were concerned about my previous experience on St. Patrick's Day. They reached out to me and I agreed to try them again. The restaurant was not super busy like last time. It was like night and day, literally. We arrived pretty early in the evening on a Friday afternoon. I was able to grab a table very quickly and my drink order was delivered in a timely fashion. The food was quite enjoyable too. We ordered fish & chips, cheese wedges, and chicken tenders. The staff checked in from time to time with us to make sure we were doing alright. They have tables outside during the summer but it was too hot out. We like being indoors with the AC on full blast. It was very comfortable sitting across from the big screen. I met with the manager as well and explained my experience. In the end it was really an isolated case that didn't happen again. I gave them a benefit of a doubt and I'm glad I did because I had a very good experience the second time around. In fact she even knew our co-worker by name! I'm adding an extra star for a total of 4 for their improvement. I'll be back again. read more

Tigin's is one of my favorite hangout spots in Stamford, especially on Tuesday nights when I can come and enjoy some trivia with friends. There have been a few themed trivia nights and those nights are packed but the regular trivia nights (Tuesdays at 8pm) are pretty cool too. The food is pretty good, especially their wings and their giant pretzel. They also have happy hour until 7pm on weekdays, which includes both drinks and appetizers. They have a wide selection of beers, and they had a pretty cool harry potter themed cocktail menu for the harry potter trivia night I went to recently. The service is pretty good and the staff does a good job of checking in once in a while to make sure our table is well-attended to. There is an outdoor patio which is great for those nice summer evenings when you want to take in the breeze over a nice cold beer. What bar isn't complete with a few tv's playing whatever sports game is on whether the world cup, baseball, or football, so make sure you come check it out! read more

Came here for a drink with friends after seeing a movie at the Avon Theatre. This is a very busy and popular great Irish pub. A bit too noisy for me but not to be missed. read more

I work in the restaurant industry, they have been an after work regular spot for me for about two years, I know their bartenders even though it's a high turnover over position where no one stays more than 5 months. I was in there after work tonight, thanksgiving eve, they were slammed. I was with 2 friends we had about 4 beers each, then order a shot for the way out. I see a woman behind the bar, she looked like a girl I am friends with that bartends there, as she walks by yelling some stuff at all the employees I jokingly say "ok loose the fkkking attitude" with a smile waiting to see my friend roll her eyes at me. Instead it's the general manager, a women who I've never seen before, and she snaps around and her reaction was abrasive, which I understand. Now seeing it wasn't my friend I start apologizing and trying to explain that it was a joke meant for someone else who appreciates that type of humor. But the "GM" acted like she drank more than me, yelling and refusing to have any conversation. She took all our drinks and said to leave. I told her we still had to pay. While we were paying she stood there still going off and refused to hear anything I was trying to explain. With management like this it's no wonder there's a high turnover and the place is empty 80% of the week. There are a hundred bars in Stamford to go to so it's not a big deal to me, we will just go somewhere else, I just feel bad for the people who have to work with/for her and everything that management like that costs them. Besides her there are plenty of good people working there, it's just too bad that the way she acted will cost the business a regular customer. read more

Great place, but they have a tall, dark skinned, mature guy with a big problem of attitude to talk to the customers. He reacts very unpleasantly when something simple like removing the cheese is requested. I have never been received with a bad attitude and a "whats up" as costumer in any place of the world. They gave me a burnt hamburger, I returned it and he got upset. Come on dude! You are not the owner of the place. The owner would be nicer. read more

Gabriella, was the best bartender I have ever experienced I'm my life, I've work in many bars in my life, never have I ever experienced such first class service, she was so nice, and so efficient serving drinks, she knew so much about the business of bars taking me back to the 1700s about pubs starting there businesses in nyc , she was absolutely delightful, and so knowledgeable. read more

Great Irish pub! They had plenty of outside seating and we loved the cocktails and green tea shots. The veggie black bean burger was super tasty and I can't wait to try more entrees in the future. The location isn't far from the waterfront areas in Stamford, either. Was great to zip over after a day on the boat. read more

I love a good Irish Pub! Walked by this location, saw the crowd and thought, yes, let's hit it for a brew and some shots. The outside was packed on Sunday Funday so we ventured inside for drinks. Awesome U-shaped bar, quaint and cute. However, when we went to order the bartender was the nastiest, most miserable women I have encountered in many, many years ! WHOever she was, May 15, 2022, 7pm bartender, was the absolute worst! So horrible that we didn't reply to her sheer ignorance we simply moved along! Avoid this spot at all costs! If you're desperate take a seat outside...don't venture inside because you will for sure leave in disgust if this pillar of misery is working the bar! Washed up jerk! I never ever leave a trash review but this was one for the record books! read more

I really like this bar. Very authentic approach to a real Irish pub. An enveloping bar in the main area and a series of snugs all around the restaurant, you'll feel transported to Emerald Isle. Friendly staff, blue collar clientele. A lovely pint of Guinness. read more

My feelings for this place are positive, as I am highly biased towards Irish pubs feel and atmosphere. This place definitely has that. But to be honest and objective, the place is popular but can get too full on peak hours. While the staff is nice and friendly, they can forget to serve you, and had to be reminded several times to take order. Yeaa.. service is a bit lacking. Drinks are way overpriced - an Irish liquer shot cost $9!! Overall nice, fun, friendly comfortable atmosphere. read more

We came here after Bar Roso just let us sit outside with no service for 20 minutes. When we got there the waitress was really attentive and nice. We got our drinks and hung out. One of the things that we really liked was they didn't crank up the music so high at the restaurant. We didn't have to yell at each other to talk to each other. And we ordered dry rubbed wings. Really taste i wish I've taken pictures of them. Also our waitress provided really good service. Drinks were little too sweet for my tastes but I liked them alot. Highly recommend this place. read more
