Melanius Mullarkey Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 I would imagine that the gif below sums up Bradford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heart of Northern Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Go to Leeds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason King Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Bradford is a lot better than it was 15 years ago, there are plenty of pubs in the city centre around the Main train station and the shopping centre. I liked the Old Bank but wasnt a fan of the Ginger Goose when up earlier in the year...but as HoN says, Leeds is far far better for a night out.

It's a lot better than it was even 5 years ago, but that bit is still mental. Get on Google maps and take a 10 minute walk to North Parade, a few good pubs there, some doing curries. The Record Bar and The Sparrow are current favourites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason King Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 I've only ever been twice, 2004 and this year - it was an utter mess of a place back then but was a lot nicer this time round. Also got to see the original Play School and Rainbow toys in the TV/film museum, which was nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to see a girl from Leeds years ago so my knowledge of present day Bradford is gash. Obviously my comment was a bit of a joke.But back then Leeds had some great music clubs. Colours,Back to Basics and Hard Times if my memory serves me right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boostin' Kev Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Lived in Leeds around 10 years ago so Bradford might have changed a lot since then. Leeds is a great city and very easy to get back and forward to from Bradford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manchester Centre is a bit of a coup in places.It was over 25 years ago when I was visiting Leeds but I can remember nice old shopping arcade and a massive indoor place on a couple of levels. Good bars and clubs as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good bars and clubs as well. It can be expensive though. The opposite of Bradford. I was in the nut house, The Ginger Goose and the barmaid questioned me why I only bought one pint of John Smiths at a time, when they were selling them for £1.50.

Manchester is huge for getting about, I prefer Liverpool, walk anywhere in minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
