Hell’s Kitchen has a new reason to stay out late. The Tiger Club is now open at 852 9th Avenue near West 55th Street, bringing cocktails, vintage-inspired style and live entertainment to a stretch of Manhattan that knows a thing or two about a late night.
The new NYC cocktail bar and lounge is designed with a moody, theatrical feel, leaning into vintage décor, dramatic lighting and, naturally, plenty of tiger-inspired touches. Think less “grab a quick drink” and more “I’ll have one cocktail” followed by several hours of wondering why you haven’t gone home yet.
At the center of the room is the bar, surrounded by curved seating that puts guests right in the action. The Tiger Club’s cocktail program focuses on classic cocktails, making it the kind of place where a martini, Old Fashioned or other proper nightcap feels right at home.
But the drinks aren’t the only reason to stop by.
Live music is a major part of The Tiger Club experience, with jazz performances and other entertainment featured throughout the week. Later nights can also bring DJs, giving the space a shift from cocktail lounge to full-on nightlife destination.
There’s food, too, making The Tiger Club more than just a place to grab a drink before heading somewhere else. Guests have highlighted seafood, cheese, pasta and desserts, meaning you can actually make an evening of it without having to relocate every 45 minutes.
The address—852 9th Avenue between West 55th and 56th Streets—puts the bar squarely in Hell’s Kitchen, making it an easy stop for neighborhood regulars, theatergoers and anyone looking for a new NYC nightlife spot.
So whether you’re looking for cocktails in Hell’s Kitchen, live jazz in NYC or a new late-night bar, The Tiger Club is officially ready to welcome you.
The tiger is out of the cage. And apparently, it likes martinis.
