We were looking for a casual place to enjoy an evening meal and found it at Tigers Milk. Relaxed setting if a little down at heel the sofa we sat on was losing it’s filling and the table positively grubby.The greeting was positive but on an evening at 7.00 the place was rather empty and the loud music and T.V. Showing sport didn’t really enhance what little atmosphere there was.The service was slow and two pizzas and a calzone took ages to turn up. When they finally did arrive they were large tasty and eagerly devoured. We decided against a pudding and asked for the bill. Twenty minutes later it finally arrived. I rounded the figure up to give a tip of around 6% which was more than the service deserved but was told by the waitress that a tip of at least 10% was due not wishing to cause a scene I amended the payment and we made our exit vowing never to return to any. Of their outlets and to let our pals know this is a place to be bullied into a non deserved tip

Dropped by for a beer and shisha close to our hotel Shisha turned out to be very limited variety, not as advertised in the online menu, and quality was also quite questionable. When we went for a beer the waiter tried to push on us extra beers that we did not order, but quickly backed off. All in all a nice place, good to chill if you are around

Came across this pub as it was just next door to our Hotel The Granddaddy Boutique Hotel. The hotel itself was pretty dead so we came here for a quick bite and a couple of drinks. We ordered a Three Little Piggies Pizza which was made fresh as it took a while to arrive. We it di come it was very tasty indeed. The atmosphere was buzzing and the service excellent if not just a little slow. We were not in a hurry so it didn’t matter.

5 years ago I gave this place a 5-star review. Went there last night and the service and food I received was atrocious.
The staff were rude, we had to wait over an hour for our food, the manager told us that the 15-20 minutes that she told us we would wait was merely an "estimate" and when the food did arrive, we received rare steak on bao buns that had no bok choi and no coriander, as stated on the menu. A waste of money.
Don't go here. It's literally not worth the time, effort or money.

What a wonderful experience! We've been all over South Africa and just waiting on our airport shuttle, located this place. It has a party vibe. Lots of personal attention from the wait staff. Anita was amazing, took care of our every need. Food was amazing. Lamb gyro for my mom and "Poke the Tiger" was incredibly fresh and tasty (healthy alternative). We sat at the open window to people watch.

Where do I begin? Firstly, we had no waiter. The bartender had to wait our table while making drinks by the bar.
I ordered The Plant Power Pizza (vegan) only to be told 45min later that “anything vegan” is unavailable.
Hungry, tired and annoyed, I enquired “Why can’t you make it?” Only to be told that they reserve their vegan food options for “real vegans”.
I’ve been vegan for 6 years.
I’m tired. Still waiting for my pizza as I type this and COMPLETELY OVER IT. Not coming back to this branch. Ever.

been to long street tiger's milk quite a few times and they are very seldom letting me or the company down. service minded and kind staff and it's easy to get stuck:)
last time i got served by a girl called thandokazi who was very sweet.
about the food. i'm a calamari lover and so far theirs are the best!
and the ribs doesn't fail either but as a "small" eater it's a bit much but then one share:)
so, for the one's who hasn't tried, don't miss the chance to enjoy a very enjoyable place.

Visiting Cape with friends we found Tigers milk and have to say we’re so glad we decided to have food here. Service was great and Mvuyisi was very attentive and friendly. The food was amazing and tasted great! Thank you for a wonderful experience with friends.

Our water was a lady by the name of Bongi. Big ups to her and her service👌🏽. She was sooo sweet, welcoming and patient.
We didn’t know what to order and she suggested a few meals for us that we could try. Thank you very much for making our date enjoyable. Definitely coming back.

It wasn't clear from the outside if Tiger's Milk is only a bar, or also has food; the latter is true and the food was really good. There are items for almost everybody's taste, and certainly for mine. The service was friendly and good and the restaurant seems safe, but I advise caution in the surrounding areas; guard your valuables.

We called in late in the evening, the surroundings were mainly an old wooden decor with a relaxed atmosphere. The staff were welcoming and the food , very tasty and value for money, My wife had a Caesar Salad which was enormous. I went for the nachos and we both had two drinks each for under £20. This place was very busy even after 8pm. Worth a look if you’re on long street.

Its sad to see that unprofessional staff are still allowed to work for this airline. From the boarding gate to the plane, is this what i pay for. Next time I rather pay more ( sa arilink was R200 more) but seriously fire all the people there is millions of people that are looking for a job.

We had an early dinner here because it was near our hotel and has been busy every time we walk by it. We tried the burger with fries and vegetarian tacos; both were good (but not fantastic.) If we had more than a few days in Cape Tpwn, I would have returned. Service was friendly -- but it's crowded, so if you're not ready when they come the first time, expect to wait.
It's a typical bar atmosphere with as much seating as they can fit. We sat next to the grill as it was the only available table, so we had to smell that all night.
Dinner for two with one drink was about 300 rand.
