Headed to Tigris tonight. Thanks for the great story Hour Detroit Magazine!

Tigris feels less like a café and more like your coolest friend’s apartment with the world’s best vinyl collection.⁠
⁠
That’s exactly the idea behind the new all-day café and hi-fi cocktail lounge, which opened June 20 in Southwest Detroit behind Michigan Central and near the Riverwalk. The café/lounge is a partnership between music supervisor Fabian Halabou, Kenan Juska of the DJ duo Chances With Wolves, and restaurateur Jacques Driscoll of InLaws Hospitality.⁠
⁠
Walk through the front door and you’ll find a bright, counter-service café with coffee, pastries, and shelves lined with vinyl. Dark wood tables and long, striped banquettes line the room. A sprawling collage by Juska from enlarged record artwork and portraits of favorite musicians unfolds across one wall.⁠
⁠
“I had a friend describe it as two rooms in a house party,” Halabou tells Hour Detroit. “One place with two distinct sides to it that are connected.”⁠
