Cons : staff

Comments : Good place to party with friends. Parking is difficult to get a spot, but go early you'll find a spot. Great spot to host an event or party( birthday, etc.)upstairs in the club atmosphere.

Comments : Taiga has gone through a lot of ups and downs so if you have not been there in a while you should definitely check it out again. This is a great place to offer Brandon patrons a real club and nightlife experience without the drive into Tampa.

Comments : EXCELLENT NIGHT CLUB!!

Comments : Brandon doesn't have a lot to offer when it comes to nightlife but Taiga has everything you need.
