Tigris was a Middle Eastern restaurant in the [[Locale Waddon|Waddon]] area of [[Locale Croydon|Croydon]]. It has now closed. As of September 2017 the premises are occupied by a pizza restaurant called Pizza Unions (see [http://www.croydonadvertiser.co.uk/the-new-italian-restaurant-where-you-can-buy-a-pizza-for-less-than-4/story-30512091-detail/story.html Croydon Advertiser article]).

They also do takeaway and delivery, with online ordering [http://web.archive.org/web/20160425065911/http://www.just-eat.co.uk:80/restaurants-tigris-restaurant-croydon/menu via Just Eat]. It opened in mid-late 2015 in a space previously occupied by a convenience store, situated alongside the busy Fiveways junction on Purley Way. Inside, it's dominated by a serving counter with a charcoal grill behind, as well as a couple of rotisserie spikes for shawarma kebabs <small>[https://www.flickr.com/photos/rjw1/23635464719/ photo]</small>. Seating is provided for about 30 people. [[bob]] visited on a Sunday late lunchtime in December 2015. I was the only customer when I arrived a little before 2pm, though two more turned up while I was there. A bowl of lentil soup and a small portion of cacik <small>[https://www.flickr.com/photos/rjw1/23976727176/ photo]</small> were brought to the table when I sat down, neither of which appeared on the bill. The soup was quite tasty. I ordered a lamb shawarma (£9.45 including salad and either chips or rice) <small>[https://www.flickr.com/photos/rjw1/23894836752/ photo]</small>. The salad was fresh, and there were plenty of pickles included. The shawarma meat was nicely marinated and quite soft, which is the way I like it. A glass of pineapple juice <small>[https://www.flickr.com/photos/rjw1/23976864656/ photo]</small> was freshly made from blended pineapple, and quite thick from the pineapple pulp included. They had a whole fridge full of fresh fruit for making juice from. No service charge was added to the bill <small>[https://www.flickr.com/photos/rjw1/23920792761/ photo]</small>. [[bob]]'s verdict: I'd come back if I was in the area. Accessibility: A ramp to get in, and another ramp down to the toilets.
