Sally Browns in Bradford

Sally Brown’s had been open for a number of months by the time I caught on to this fantastic Bar/Cafe and Live music venue on Bradford’s ground breaking North Parade . It stands out on the street with a huge streak of Mustard Yellow , which no doubt helped the owner Steve get through some challenging COVID Lockdown months. Inside the decor is a homage to all things Ska / Two Tone (and a bit of Northern / Sixties Soul )and retro sixties/seventies . Even in the loo’s ! I admit total bias as a passionate fan of these music genres’ . Food wise they provide a range of Grill / Dinner style dishes . Burgers / Hotdogs , cooked breakfasts , Jacket Potatoes , Nacho’s and Fish . Vegan and Veggie Options . Milkshakes , full range of coffee’s . Also a bar with some interesting beer options . There is a small stage which accommodates frequent live music which is the driving force behind the owners vision for the place. Its funky, friendly and unique . My mate came for a pre match meal and were won over by the home made fish fingers and chips ! Even more by the Ska/ Revival reggae / Two Tone sound track. Its a great addition to the positive changes provided by North Parade and if it was in London or Manchester it would be front page news. As the Specials sang … “ Enjoy Yourself “
