Pearls Tearoom & Patisserie in Bradford

We went to Pearls around 1 hoping to enjoy some live piano music while we ate, but unfortunately when I asked a staff member, she told me they don’t have live piano anymore. Such a shame — it was one of the things that made the place special.

First time trying pearls after it being recommended, Initial impression of the interior was really nice. When entering No one greeted us and we stood for a little while it wasn’t overly busy ( female servers walking around just glanced at us but didn’t come over ) No one asked us if we wanted anything during the duration of our visit we had to call people over each time for drinks and dessert ect . The male member of staff behind the counter was much better when we went up to choose cakes The food was nice and came out fairly quickly, good portions the children really enjoyed it Overall nice food service lacking

My and my wife went here today in the afternoon we sat on table 6, the place was chock a block and we expected long wait times however the service was fantastic literally got our food within 5-10 minutes of ordering and our drinks within a few minutes of sitting down, we ordered a full English a burrito and a Moroccan lamb burrito. The food was excellent the service immaculate and the restaurant was amazing. Highly recommended!

Very extensive menu. We had a Greek salad and the Dynamite Prawns plus chips. The latter two were decent. Greek salad should really come with Kalamata olives, oregano, olive oil and red onion, none of which were present in the dish but the rest of the ingredients were fresh. The atmosphere was nice, with recorded piano music and the staff were helpful and service was quick. Would be nice to catch the live piano music at some point if they do actually have a piano player. Hope to return at some point to try other dishes. In summary, Pearl's is a decent place for a bite to eat though not in the same category as something like Betty's Tea Rooms as it caters to a different crowd with different tastes.

Class place. Class food. Enough said

Crap service the girls there have a bad attitude problem food not worth the price

Had a planned bridesmaid proposal shower and the team went above and beyond! Provided a nice space for a setup, took orders efficiently and delivered the food in an orderly manner. They let us be in our own area and provided the best service throughout! Thank you for all your efforts it was an amazing evening.

Absolutely brilliant tearoom, the food was fantastic, the service was on point. Can not fault a thing! Will be recommending to everyone and going back again!

Always come here for the hot shot parmo - used be the best in Bfd. Came recently and the parmo has been changed - it’s so thin and small - chips have changed - preferred the old ones. Also had to ask for masala sauce - used to get a bottle - now poured into a tiny pot - and they only gave one between two people - if changed back to original will return happily

Such a wonderful performance by the talented pianist at Pearls Coffeehouse! Truly elevated the ambiance. Bravo

Really enjoyed our food, service was abit slow but manager was very nice so would come again!

Amazing service and food definitely would recommend and come again

Absolutely phenomenal service by Abigail

10/10 customer service by Abbie. Best wing man 😉

The Pearl had a very nice romantic atmosphere. Staff were friendly, food was pretty damn good. Lamb chops were tender, Sweet potatoes were a delight had a nutty sweet flavour, cooked to perfection healthy and delicious. Fish masala, mouth watering dish 10/10 from mwah.

Unreal Service from abigail (abby)

"I had an amazing experience at Pearls. Thanks to my wonderful waiter, Abby! From the moment we were seated, Abby was friendly, attentive, and made us feel right at home. She was quick to recommend some delicious menu options and made sure our drinks were always full. Her positive attitude and excellent service made our visit so enjoyable. Thank you, Abby, for making our dining experience memorable. I'll definitely be coming back!"

This breakfast place was an absolute disaster. The service was shockingly bad. We waited forever just to get a table, and it was infuriating to watch people who arrived after us getting seated while we were left standing around like we didn't matter. It felt like they completely ignored us because they were too busy catering to others. It was the girl named MADIA I think, very rude prioizing guys. When we finally got a table, it was clear that the staff had no sense of urgency or care for their customers. The whole experience was just a mess, and it made what should have been a nice breakfast feel like a total nightmare. I definitely wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone. Thank for spoiling my sehri Ramadan mubarak to you guys.

Been here twice now, both times extremely disappointing. Came a few years ago and had the eggs benedict which left me feeling sick. Today I had the masala omlette which was lacking in flavour and did not taste fresh. The texture gave me the impression it had been reheated and wasn’t made to order. Unfortunately, I will not return here again, however, my cousins have all enjoyed their meals and unfortunately I have been let down both times.

Insanely good food, for insanely good prices. Staff were great and service was speedy, the Café is decorated so well I can't tell if I'm in a Royal Palace or a luxury Café. Would 100% recommend you visit and eat here!

Fantastic place we went for afternoon tea here and it was amazing. Food was fresh. Service was really good. The cake and macaroni displays are amazing well worth a try can be abit costly but worth it. We took home some of our food which they provided a tub and bought some extras to take home too.

Visited Pearls for breakfast & it did not disappoint! The food was absolutely amazing, everything was cooked to perfection. The tea was also really nice & the macarons were delicious! It does take quite a while to get a table but trust me it’s totally worth it. The atmosphere is great & the food makes the wait more than worthwhile. Highly recommend!

came here for iftari and had fish and chips for a change and it was amazing! the food was bang on. we was also served complimentary samosa and rolls along with dates and water bottles to open our fast. at the end I took some red velvet cake and some Kunafa macarons and they were to die for. beautiful decor with a pleasant ambience. ✨️ definitely will recommend

Abby provided an excellent service, friendly and energetic.

What a lovely place to eat. Wonderful choice of food to cater for everyone. Reasonably price. Very friendly and super helpful staff. We met as a family group and enjoyed a very enjoyable couple hours sharing delicious food and lots of laughter.

Absolutely amazing! Delicious food, perfect ambiance, and top-notch service. Pearls Tearoom is a must-visit in Bradford! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Abby was extremely brilliant and service was 10/10 and did everything possible to make my experience amazing.

Got the poached eggs on toast with avocado, UGHHH,eggs overcooked so yolk was hard,avocado was lumpy,literally no seasoning,a quarter of a tea spoon of salsa was smeared on the side of the toast,asked for a banana milkshake,no bananas,staff stand around chit chatting as customer waits for sum1 to come n help,overall over rated place with poor service n food standard,but priced above the performance!!!!

As a pianist who performs in various venues, I can confidently say this space consistently provides an exceptional atmosphere for both myself and patrons. It's a privilege to contribute to the experience.

Lorna served us, she was amazing

From the moment we, my mother, niece and I, we were pleasantly greated by Abbie. Who opened the door for us and got us comfortably seated. The other staff were all pleasant and courteous. Our food was served prmpty and wth a smile. I will be coming again. Than you!!!

After recommended by local friends and reading reviews I decided to take my wife and newborn for a brunch. When arriving I was told there will be a 15 minute wait and i should wait in the car whilst they will take my number to call me. I pointed out the pen had no ink so it was impossible the number was written. They re assured it was legible. I waited 30 mins in the car until I decided to call if the table was ready. They apologised saying the number was not legible but it was ready. Towards the end of the meal I ordered additional cappuccino for takeout. I had to order this 3 times waiting ten minutes between each order as they had forgotten. When it finally came I asked for a tray to put cups in- which they forgot to give. When leaving the premises the carpet outside was wet and slippery and whilst I had a baby carrier in one hand the coffee slipped in the other on my white jacket. That summed up the visit. Lack of attention, chaotic and incompetent staff. With so many of these cafes customer service is the only thing keeping businesses afloat.

absolutely amazing place lovely food beautiful decor but more importantly the staff were amazing we made a quick stop before we left back for birmingham and it was almost their closing time but each and everyone of the staff made us feel so welcome and were so polite the manager showed us so much kindness and respect we were left heart touched people like these are few and far between and it makes all the difference thank you very much everyone and particular the manager/owner at pearls tea room we will definitely be visiting you again next time we are up north

Absolutely loved the food and service was great. Madeeyah (sorry if spelling is wong) was amazing. Very professional. Thanks

Lovely food and service, the atmosphere was perfect. Madeeha was very welcoming and made me and my friends feel comfortable.

Great food, amazing service would recommend

Pearls tea rooms is a beautiful café offering a great variety of foods with an extensive menu that caters to breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The atmosphere is enhanced by a live pianist playing beautiful music, making the experience even more enjoyable. The café is cosy, decorated to a high standard, and features comfortable upholstered seating in a spacious setting. A special mention goes to Lorna, who was fantastic! She was incredibly helpful, polite, and bubbly—truly an asset to the Pearls team. We ordered the chicken Caesar salad, chicken Parmesan, and lasagna. The lasagna was very tasty, but the chicken Parmesan was initially served with an overwhelming amount of chilli sauce on top, and the mushroom sauce was missing. This was a bit disappointing, but the staff quickly replaced the dish with a fresh plate. The Caesar salad, however, was a little underwhelming. Despite these small issues, it was a pleasant experience overall, and we appreciated the lovely atmosphere and attentive service.

Service was excellent. Lovely atmosphere. Thank you Afzana 😊 A cosy prayer room too ✨️

Had a fabulous evening lastnight Joined by friends celebrating. Enjoyed some delicious food.

The food was delicious and the customer service was lovely. I’d highly recommend trying this place

Just had a wonderful lunch at Pearl's. I had the signature burger and fries, it was absolutely delicious. Pearl's never fails to impress me or anyone i visit with. I has a really extensive menu offering almost any type of food you could wish for. There's something for everyone! And the deserts are divine! Great value. Great service. And so lovely to have a piano player in the house. What a special place Pearl's is. Thank you for your service Pearl's. We'll be back soon. One piece of advice for anyone hoping for a quiet catch up... go after 3, cos its bustling during the lunch period. But that's actually a great reflection of how popular it is!

Service was excellent...in particular Abby

Lovely atmosphere, great live piano, Abbey welcomed us in and was so lovely. Food was spot on! Can’t wait to visit again! Thanks

Come every week, special place in Bradford ❤️

Lovely place, great service. Coffee is very good. Great selection of teas. Food was super yummy. modern songs piano version background. overall great experience!!! Must go

We visited during a busy time but were seated promptly, and the staff were warm and welcoming. The restaurant had a live pianist, which was different; however, the volume was overwhelming. When you need to shout across the table to be heard, it takes away from the dining experience. It’s puzzling why some restaurants insist on such loud music—it’s rarely what guests look for during a meal. As for the food, we tried a range of dishes: a burger, lasagna, chicken parmesan, and a full English breakfast. The food was enjoyable, though none of the dishes particularly stood out. Our main concerns were: 1. For the breakfast, we requested paratha in place of toast and were willing to pay any difference, yet this was declined. It was a simple ask that felt strangely rigid. 2. The chicken parmesan was disappointing in portion, with a fillet that measured about 5mm in thickness—unusually thin for the price. Overall, while the atmosphere and service had positive points, these details left the experience feeling underwhelming. For a group of four adults and three children, with a bill of £180, we expected a more polished experience. With a few small adjustments, this place could elevate it's offering, but as it stands, we found it lacking. Don't think we'd be returning in a hurry, which is unfortunate.

Amazing service and brillant food! As always! Will be returning again

The full breakfast was amazing, the live piano playing in the background just takes your breath away, highly recommended, A must visit place to dine in..

Great service ambience and Naomi went out of her way. Cheers
