Dining atmosphere in Bradford

“We went as a fam of 4. We ordered- Chaat mains and dessert. The ‘must order’ dishes are definitely Sev Puri, Papdi Chaat and the Parathay. I have to say every single plate of food that came to our table tasted home cooked and freshly made. The Saag parathay are to die for honestly! I can’t wait to go back for another one haha! Being a family run business as well- they can alter the food as you like it and deliver an amaazing experience. The husband and wife duo were very courteous, friendly and hospitable. This kind of food- the proper desi Punjabi food is hard to find in Bradford- it’s a must try!!”

“We’d had to postpone our original visit and when I told my brother, he said he would have taken over that booking I now know why !! great food with some unique subtle flavours. Nice lively atmosphere. We’ll definitely be revisiting.”

“Greeted with a warm welcoming from the store manger naila made us try lovely pieces of baklava and dates an Arabic desserts they also sell a range of cakes an sweet treats the the service she provided was outstanding very polite an kind would deffo recommend and come back for more worth a try yu wont be disappointed”

“As a Freemason, I visited for a lodge meeting (the Lodge uses the building). What a wonderful place, very nicely decorated and a great setting. Food was excellent, and while I'm no Trifle fan, those who had it, were very clearly happy with it, none survived the dinner! I look forward to coming back again when the lodge meets again, and hopefully explore some more.”

“Nice place for dine in, taste is good. A variety of dishes available. Service is good. Well decorated place but ambience is not that great. Sitting is too congested. Little bit pricey. Overall we enjoyed the food.”

“Currently staying the night here with my partner just to get away from home and it’s been lovely from the minute we arrived. Such a nice little country pub. All the staff are all so welcoming and attentive and especially have been during our meal, despite them being so busy. Our food was gorgeous and so reasonably priced. The room is lovely and comfortable and it’s so nice to not have to leave the building to have a nice stay. We’ve ended up booking breakfast for the morning too. We would definitely return and 100% recommend. Thank you for a lovely night guys.”

“Amazing warm little place with its lovely aproaching staff . Well pleased with prices and food. Very busy so hurry and grab some good food !! Xxx”

“The food and service was absolutely fantastic. The food was nice and fresh. The service was great we had a brother help us out very much which was also very kind. There isn’t much of an atmosphere as it is just a unit with no indoor seating so you can either eat in the car or take it home. We ate in the car and they had given us wipes to clean our hands with after which I very much appreciated. Would definitely visit again”

“This place is great to eat. The food is crispy, hot and amazing and full of flavour. I would definitely recommend.”

“First time for us recommended by friend. I must admit everything was cooked to perfection. Staff was friendly. We loved it. Just one thing such a good place and food but only take cash. But they asked me to transfer into account.”

“If you want to experience traditional Pakistani food this is the place to go the meat masala on the bone and meat pilau is amazing and the roti is absolutely beautiful cheap prices best roti house in Bradford in my opinion its the closest to home made you can get”

“Can not fault International. The team were so accommodating, friendly and service was excellent. The food was by far the best I have ever had. Perfect level of spice, condiments with the poppadoms were also delicious”

“Food was great but I’m only reviewing because I’ve been overcharged and have tried to reach out with no success. I’ve attached my receipt where it clearly shows that’s I’ve been charged more than I should have. My dispute has been resolved with Nad. Great service”

“My visit to Shimlas was an excellent experience from start to finish. The food was full of flavour, perfectly cooked, and beautifully presented. Each dish had that signature Shimlas taste — rich, authentic, and full of spice and aroma. The grilled items were juicy and tender, the curries packed a punch without being overpowering, and everything arrived hot and fresh. What really made the experience stand out, though, was Sister Qamar’s exceptional service. She was warm, professional, and attentive throughout, making sure every detail was just right. Her welcoming attitude created a lovely atmosphere, and she handled everything with genuine care and efficiency. It’s clear she takes real pride in both her work and the satisfaction of her guests.”

“I had a buffet breakfast with my dad which was really good, everything was warm and cooked perfectly. Poppy came to speak to us to ask how everything was, was very friendly and made the visit a little bit more special”

“The conference lunch was delicious, and everything throughout our stay was excellent. We come here quite often, and this experience was good as always. Highly recommended! Silvia was extremely professional and made our visit exceptional. She helped check us in for our conference and hosted the entire event perfectly. We also saw her serving at the bar and look after reception — she truly does it all. After speaking with her, we learned she is a Supervisor, and it’s clear why. Very dedicated. We sure be back. Rudi was also very professional and those ladies looked after us regularly.”

“Lynsey and her staff are absolutely lovely. They were very accommodating and helpful. We literally had 3 weeks to plan the event a bridal shower and they managed to pull off a spectacular evening in short notice. The food was an Indian 3 course meal and the drinks we added, but overall a very good package and the event was such fun! We had a blast.”

“Amazing place. Too bad it is not advertised and the location is not exactly...central. Prices were a bit high for the location but they use home made, farm grown products. First place in Leeds I had real home made sausages. The ambient is warming and welcoming, plenty of space both indoor and outdoor.”

“Great shop was surprised how lovely it was inside really liked it and will for sure be back in, The Christmas selection was EXELLENT ...best i've seen in any shop good prices and great quality, the staff were nice too.”

“Fantastic hotel with outstanding staff. Just a note if you visit during warmer weather there is no air con on the 1st floor, not a criticism just worth bearing in mind. The staff make this hotel perfect as they are so attentive and helpful.”

“Great location, handy car park at the rear, the staff are fantastic & polite. There is some nice places to visit so this location is ideal. The food has always been good, the rooms are clean, iv never had a negative issue when I have stayed here, and I stay quite frequently.”

“Pizza Milano has the best pizza. I’ve been ordering from them for over 25 years, since I was a kid, and their pizzas are still just as lovely as ever.”

“Very fast service. Friendly staff. And i think prices are quite low for these modern times. Definitely one the cheaper side of restaurants. Would return to try other menu items”

“I have been a customer for donino's for years, they have always maintained a great quality base and provide plenty of toppings and sometimes the offers are good and it is good to see that you can watch behind the glass pizzas getting made. I waited for about 9mins for my order to be complete absolutely fantastic.”

“The best buffet in Bradford. The food is so fresh and very very tasty. The saag was sooo delicious and fresh. Buffet has an excellent choice and quality food. The atmosphere is perfect and staff are very helpful and kind. I will definitely recommend this to everyone who enjoys tasty food. Love it”

“The food was excellent, full of flavor and clearly prepared with care, with the steak cooked spot on just as requested. The mocktails were also very nice, refreshing and well balanced, adding to the overall enjoyment of the meal. What truly made the experience stand out was the service—the staff were attentive and welcoming, creating a warm and comfortable atmosphere throughout. In particular, Haroon was brilliant: friendly, professional, and always ready to help with a smile, making the whole experience even more memorable.”

“Best ifftar buffet so far.. so many choices of tasty food..(gajer halwa was so delicious) price wise it is really worthy. Staff was very friendly.. I definitely recommend”

“BBQ Express was absolutely amazing! Everything was 10/10 — the food was delicious, full of flavour, and cooked perfectly. The customer service was excellent; the staff were friendly, attentive, and made us feel very welcome. It’s a great family-friendly place with a warm and comfortable atmosphere. Definitely one of the best BBQ spots I’ve been to highly recommend!”

“Excellent food. The Flama chicken was amazing. It was tasty and well cooked. Service was ok. Think they had a staff shortage. Cleanliness can be improved. Slightly disappointed with the kids meal though. Was expensive for what you get as the chicken nuggets were processed and not proper fillets. Accept card payments. Pay first system. HMC Approved.”

“Food was beautiful and so much choice! The service was excellent, all waiters were attentive and we didn’t feel rushed. Had a couple of beers and ordered our food slowly making a night of it. Really busy inside, good atmosphere with lots of families enjoying time together. They have a brilliant 3 course meal deal through the week (5pm-7pm) which has so much choice and less than £20! Definitely returning here, could not fault it. Licensed bar, good choice of drinks to choose from. There is something on the menu to fit everyone’s palate with a wide range of vegetarian options available also.”
