Lodge Cafe in Bradford

If you are thinking of having “a do” this is the place to seriously consider. We held an 80th birthday party for 22 people at the Lodge. The wonderful staff prepared a celebration buffet for us and our guests. The food was excellent and plentiful. The bar provided a good selection of alcoholic drinks, soft drinks, teas, coffee etc. Nothing was too much trouble for our two hosts. The atmosphere was amazing. Everyone of our guests young to old enjoyed the evening.

We went to The Lodge for our Christmas party, the staff were really helpful and the food was delicious. I've been here for lunch before and it's great value.

We came here for a private party - the venue was fantastic, the staff couldn't be more helpful and they created a festive vibe.

The Christmas party we had at the Lodge was fabulous. The staff were very friendly, helpful and overall very professional. The food was excellent too. Would definitely recommend the Lodge whenever required and would visit again personally.

This is such an amazing place! The staff are amazing, so lovely nothing is ever too much! I planned a works Christmas Party here, it was the smoothest process from beginning to end! The food, drinks, the environment is absolutely amazing both through the day as a cafe and during the night as a private hire. I couldn’t recommend them anymore!

Best coffee in Bradford Super friendly staff Wonderful cake Cosy atmosphere Just next to the park and museum

Great place to meet up with friends and family, also to make new friends. Food is fantastic, all cooked fresh while you wait. Really good coffee and great atmosphere. Friendly staff

We held my mums 75th birthday in the upstairs function room. We had ordered brunch of bacon sandwiches and tea&coffee. This did not disappoint. The food was amazing, nothing was too much trouble and our family and friends had a fantastic time. The staff are exceptional the cost was very reasonable and I'd highly reccomend.

Went for a walk in Bowling Park with friends and dogs and then went into the cafe- it was a wet horrible day and we were warmly greeted dogs and humans- even offered doggie towels for the dogs! It’s a really lively cafe with a very comfortable atmosphere. Had great coffee and delicious sausage sandwiches ! A real hidden gem!

Stopped after a stroll round the park, we had full breakfast which was good quality and well priced, nice atmosphere and lovely relaxed feel. Will be visiting again.

I imagine the recipe is a trade secret but these are the best cheesy chis ever! Closed doors with limited signage make an old Victorian building look so closed, but this is definitely open and serving excellent food.

This is a beautiful cafe which has a charm to it that you usually only find in small villages in rural England. This is running as a community asset to give something back to the place where it located rather than to get rich. I just love places like this.

Good breakfast, lovely setting and friendly staff. Definitely recommend a visit. We’ll be back. The dog is going wonder why he’s getting so many walks in the park

Only living 20 minutes away I never thought about a visit well boxing day proved a short run out to Bowling. Parking easy outside the entrance gates here located the Lodge Cafe i think its run by volunteers so its a nippy day a walk around the park (1 mile blue circuit) then sample the cafe ... although outdoor only seating available due to the currant restrictions we had mulled blueberry £2.20 well you've got to be in the festive spirit so to speak. Nice friendly staff attached a few photos of our wander around the perimeter of the park

Located right next to the finish of Bowling Park parkrun this was the obvious place for breakfast. As it was the first parkrun the staff maybe didn’t know what was about to hit them but they coped admirably. I had to check to make sure the price of three breakfast sandwiches and teas / coffees was correct (apparently it was) which was excellent value. Really good food and a really good environment. Every parkrun needs a cafe like this one.

I have walked passed this cafe a couple of times but only got chance to visit today and I am so glad we did! As soon as we walked in we were greeted by lovely staff and a nice atmosphere. Me and my mum shared the tuna toastie and it was so tasty. The almond slice was lovely too. It is also reasonably priced not too expensive and the money goes to a good cause helping young people in the community. Everything was very clean and staff were really accommodating and friendly. I am so glad i have discovered this place we will definately be visiting again.

We held a day-long meeting here in the summer and it was excellent. The upstairs function room is lovely, quiet and has great facilities.

Its a great place to have food, snacks, coffee & cake. Very friendly, for people, families and dogs. Our area and community benifits from places like this.

A new cafe run by volunteers provides excellent food, nicely served and at reasonable prices. Good menu. On the downside, it was a bit draughty and cold, but I'm sure they will fix that

For all that I have been a Bradfordian for 60 years I was unaware of this delightful cafe. It was a very windy, cold day and my friend and I wanted to get out for some fresh air. I searched on the internet and came up with this place. As soon as we walked in I liked it. My friend and I both had an English breakfast which was very tasty and shared a lovely piece of caramel shortbread. The staff were friendly and courteous and the cafe had a very convivial atmosphere. We’ll definitely be going again when the weather improves and we can also enjoy a walk in Bowling Park.

Such a gorgeous cafe hiding in bowling park. My friend and I came with her little boy and enjoyed a gorgeous breakfast of avocado toast with halloumi - even managed to do if gluten free for my friend! Coffee is amazing and we shared one of the caramel shortbreads which are the best Iv ever tasted :). Lovely area for children to play too which is always a bonus. Would definitely recommend to friends and family & will certainly be back soon!

It was quiet - due to the terrible weather! We had great brownies and Yorkshire tea loaf. Good coffee and tea. Pleasant environment. Decent service.

Went to this wonderful cafe after our visit to Bolling Hall museum. Really enjoyed the coffee and bacon bun. The staff were warm and welcoming. The cafe very clean which has recently been decorated to a high standard. Good selection on the Menu, liked the idea of 'building your own breakfast'plus it caters for dogs.

Myself and 3 friends visited 2 weeks ago and had some brilliant food and the cakes where Devine. Leanne the lady who served us was very nice and very knowledgeable about the cafe and what it stands for. Would recommend people in the area to visit.
