Tiger Tiger is a chain of British nightclubs owned by Novus Leisure. As of mid-2007, the chain has nine branches, located in Aberdeen, Cardiff, Croydon, Glasgow, Leeds, London, Manchester, Newcastle and Portsmouth. Each branch has one or more bars, a restaurant and a dance floor; each has its own unique decor and soundtrack. Tiger Tigers are particularly popular with women and holds weekly "Ladies' Nights". The chain's policy of allowing customers to pre-book booths, which avoids the possibility of having to queue outside in the cold, also makes it popular with older partygoers.
The chain's flagship branch, and the first to open (in 1998), is on Haymarket in central London. It is also the largest, with three floors covering some 18,000 sq ft (1,700 m²) of floor space. On 29 June 2007 it was outside this club that the first of two unsuccessful car bombs was discovered and made safe.
