The 6 Acres in Bradford

+ Walton View Hotel looks nice from outside and inside. + Food was outsourced from my Lahore for Asian wedding was very tasty + The service was quick and reliable - The overflow parking should be surfaced and parking bays made clear - lighting is required in overflow parking areas - the location of the stage should be in such a place that it can be seen from every seat in the dining hall.

Turn up here today as says open online and was closed and under constructuon and being taken over

Did the job for the team. I'm not a drinker but atmosphere was relaxed.

Poor food, often cold or uncooked!

6 Acres temporarily shut now until at least October 2023 due to refurbishment.

Unfortunately we visited during a refurb and the visit was average, will look forward to visiting again when it's finished.

One of the best venues for wedding ceremonies in Bradford with nice open grounds. Excellent service provided by the establishment.

Poor food, cold. Other groups were also complaining of cold food. Overheard the pub is shutting down which would explain the poor service.

I do hope the still pending renovation is considerable throughout all areas of the place and to a decent standard, as it's sorely needed. I also wish the decent carvery comes back at the original standard as before they withdrew the carvery option recently it had become less enjoyable than the well known opposition chain and that's arguably not saying much. The staff are the only real positive left, who were all attentive and welcoming. My son was a bit disappointed that the wooden play area was gone for the renovations in recent visits but hopefully they'll make a better one later on? Not sure if there's any room now though and will probably only chance a visit one more time once the renovations are finally complete with hope.

Not a bad experience good portions

Awful service! Cancelled with two days to go for an 80th birthday party for 25 people that had been booked for months! Avoid!!

6.50 for a pint of lemonade and a glass of coke, phone signal is none existent no carvery anymore 😢

I went with my children yesterday thinking it was a cavalry to be told. It was just a roast dinner, even though there were signs up for cavalry, who was told there was no room inside to sit and eat, and I would have to sit outside on a windy day, my youngest, been a year old, clearly disabled, and has a pink pot on her leg We waited well over an hour off an hour for the food and when it came through on the edible thing was the Yorkshire pudding, and that took from chewing as I get all costs complete waste of money food is disgusting. I’ve never seen white beef before I ordered food here

I ordered a roast dinner which was "okay" you need a good sharp knife to cut through the broccoli. My daughter ordered the southern fried chicken burger, the chicken had very little southern fried coating on it, it was a "sloppy" burger, the onion ring were massive, however they were extremely oily. We both ordered cheese cake for dessert, one strawberry the other lemon. Now I love a cheese cake, however this one is the worse I've ever had. It tasted of nothing, no cheese flavour came through at all, no hint of sweetness to it what so ever, the only flavour came from the lemon, the strawberry topping was more of a thick blob of jelly, jam. When you see the pictures advertising the 6 Acers Famous Carvery, the food looks delicious, however it's tasteless, we were extremely disappointed. There's a notice board saying, take a look at our extensive menu, there isn't an extensive menu, not on a Sunday anyway. Oh and the Famous Carvery wasn't available. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Great service. Great food. All staff very pleasant and helpful. Will definitely be visiting again

Sadly this venue is going downhill. We were a party of 7 celebrating an anniversary, we were told after we had ordered that there would not be enough meat on the carvery for the ones who had ordered it, this was very early evening so were a little surprised, the food was lukewarm at best and a little tired looking after been under warming lights for so long. we have been coming here for many years but in future, we will be going elsewhere.

50 min wait for sub standard food, the place was dead but still a huge wait for terrible food, the quality was cheap and wait was ridicules, when the food finally arrived we were so disappointed we asked to see the manager, we aired our grievances and she was very apologetic and offered a refund, please be mindful this is not the 6 Acres I’ve frequented for many years

So said to see this place not doing carverys no more. Staff very helpful and present shame the food has declined been coming here for the last few months always found it very good no complaints whats so ever. We are looking elsewhere now for another venue for our meals from now on shame. Please reconsider doing carverys again.

Partner and I visited for a Carvery. Signs dotted around the building indicated that the Carvery was soon to close down - and after eating it, we both knew why. Only two meats to choose from - one of which had been cooked so long it resembled rubber. Overheard a customer on a nearby table complaining at the lack of turkey - the manager actually told the customer that they should have called and asked for some turkey to be saved for them ... I mean who rings a Carvery and request some meat to be saved?! Aunt Bessies stuffing balls, Aunt Bessies roasties - If we wanted cheap frozen food, we would of made it at home. Had to wait for a while whist they caught up cooking the vegetables. How do you not have enough on stand by ready to exchange when you can see it getting low? They are soon to undergo a major refurb - I would suggest a refurb of the food also!

Staff were lovely and helpful food was nice just abit slow arriving

Used the function room for my Dads funeral. They provided the catering and what a fabulous buffet they did. It was fabulous buffet and couldn't fault at all. They provided for vegan, vegetarian and gluten free. The staff were excellent and looked after us so well. Keep up this excellent service.

Lovely place friendly staff and helpful good selection of alcohol/food

The food in this place is just embarrassing, the vegetables in the carvery are frozen boiled, the sausages are some kind of cardboard except meat, roast potatoes are worse than the cheapest frozen ones you can get in a supermarket, just cheap bad produce, no the chefs fault.

Overall very good...if really picky beef slightly tough n cabbage bit hard but tbh nowhere perfect an all in all with choice,service, pleasant staff can't be critical " I know I have been lol " better to be honest thou..

As a mixed group of 8 people, the staff looked after us lovely. Had a lovely night. Had our meals outside, lovely experience.

Nice place good food friendly staff

Was busy when we arrived on a warm sunny afternoon, but the hostess found us a little table. We chose the carvery. I had topside beef, you get to chose how many Yorkshire puddings you have, and as many roasties and veggies as you like, there were even cocktail sausages. The Yorkshire pudding was the best I've ever had, it was huge, fluffy, and had a lovely flavour. Dipped in the delicious tasting onion gravy was the perfect combination 😋 The roux which was on the cauliflower cheese tasted homemade, and the rest was very tasty too. Will definitely come back next time I'm in the area 😁

Fabulous carvery, been going for years shame it's going to stop

Lovely food, can be hectic when busy but worth it

Food was dry cold carnt comment on service as it was carvary as for atmosphere full near carvary area not a lot of people down stairs few outside saying that it was only 2pm

All the family enjoyed their meals thankyou

Really nice set up. Unfortunately on day I visited the roast neef was very tough

Live the 6 Acres. Food hot. Plates hot good staff very polite nothing too much trouble.

Apparently its getting an update to its decor , friendly service from the bar .

About 24 of us came last weekend for a family birthday carvery, food was not good, meat over cooked, beed could not chew, the veg and yorkshires were cold, after our meals we were then asked to leave as they had other table bookings, we asked if we could finish our drinks, we were told we could finish them outside, this was a 70th birthday so few older relatives with us, was cold outside, they then said we could have a table downstairs as long as we were gone within 30 mins, not a very good experience, will definatly not be returning, used to be so nice here too, was a real let down 🙁

A great carvery, excellent food, friendly and helpful staff, lovely meat, weirdly too large Yorkshire Puddings! Would definitely recommend. Enjoy

Had the hot sandwich salad and roast potatoes very good quality and value, friendly staff and efficient service

We both had the large mixed grill, of which the meats were lovely... Sadly the chips were awful and the beef dripping gravy was congealed and tasted odd... We got a gravy boat each, one full, one half full... We left both and the overdone "chips" which were more like roast potatoes... It won't put us going again, we were just a bit disappointed...

Wasn't told how the carvery was done .waited 45 mins until I asked .no signs to tell you wot to do .won't be going again the staff saw us waiting and never said enything too busy on there phones

Spot on,nice food and nice service

Terrible service all meals come a different times on complaining was told not to come again

Music too loud for a lunch time but food was really nice. Huge pies.

Went on a Tuesday lunchtime, so it was quiet, we had the carvery which was average. Yorkshire puddings very tough and difficult to cut. The vegetables were OK, unfortunately the serving spoons were solid and not slotted so it was difficult to drain the water from the cabbage, peas etc. Everything was lukewarm, wouldn't rush back but it may be better when it's busy and there's a quicker turnover of the food. The young lady behind the bar was lovely, very friendly

We went here for an 80th birthday party. The reserved area we were in was much nicer than the main pub/bar area. The service was good (there was a short wait on the reserved side of the bar), the food was really delicious too. The toilet on the reserved side was much nicer than the one in the main area!! It's about what you'd expect the price of pub grub to be.

We went for mother's day with my sister and are grown up children and there partners. We were in the upstairs big room with loads of screaming kids and crying babies I do know the children aren't to blame but we won't be back. We couldn't chat it was too noisy and were glad to get out. Food was good but noise was terrible.

Bit warm upstairs where the carvery is but nice overall, the cakes are great 👍

Great place highly recommended 👍

It was very busy on mother's day. However the staff were exceptional and the food was very good.

A friendly staff team and tasty Sunday carvery made for a good Mother’s Day lunch. Only slight negative is the decor and furnishings needed some updating but would visit again.

Been here twice now. First time food was great. Carvery self service. Nice choice of veg and a nice daily special on offer. Second time we found the beef was like shoe leather. Unable to cut even using a steak knife. The response from the waitress was that quite a lot of people had complained. Somehow that was meant to reassure us. 😕

My recent visit to Six Arches Bradford left me with mixed feelings. While the Sticky Toffee and Biscoff Cheese Cake was a delightful treat, the Carvery left a lot to be desired. However, the biggest letdown was the service experience. Most of the staff were friendly and accommodating, but one particular staff member who took my wife's order was quite unpleasant. When my wife and sister-in-law placed their orders, my father-in-law offered to pay for everyone's meal, which seemed to irritate the staff member. Despite my wife's attempt to apologise, the staff member huffed and tried to cancel the order. It was disappointing to see such behavior from a member of the service industry. Furthermore, we were perplexed as to why the staff member couldn't have split the bill into three separate payments. This made the whole experience quite uncomfortable and unnecessary. Overall, while the Sticky Toffee and Biscoff Cheese Cake was enjoyable, the unsatisfactory Carvery and unpleasant service experience have left me with no desire to return to Six Arches Bradford anytime soon.

Absolutley the best meal I have had in ages. Everything was perfect .

Best brunch I’ve been to honestly the staff are so organised and defo get your moneys worth , Libby the waitress is polite and fast at organising the food and drinks defo recommend x

Excellent carvery, had an excellent meal... recommended

I was very disappointed with this place. We had booked it for a family meal to celebrate my mother's 95th birthday. The table was not ready when we arrived and waited for 10 minutes before we were seated. We went to order our meals and drinks (we had to wait another 10 minutes for the drinks) served by the same person who had taken our order - he seemed to be the only one working! We then waited 35 minutes for our meals, the haddock was very scrappy and they omitted to include the steak from the mixed grill. NOT RECOMMENDED!

Went for an evening meal. Plenty of parking on site and easy to find. pleasant atmosphere inside with attentive staff. Had the steak and ale pie which was a superb huge pie absolutely stuffed with steak and nice to be able to taste the ale in the gravy. This was served with home made chips which where a nice change from the usual frozen ones most pubs sell. Could be wrong but I think they were cooked in beef dripping which adds to the flavour and authenticity. If you have any room left would recommend the desert counter, I had a huge chuck of cheesecake which was covered in all kinds of chocolate goodies. Definitely worth a visit

Highly Recommended... Spotlessly Clean.... Warm and Welcoming..... Food Excellent and Variety of Choices... Excellently Priced....

Lovely food, my only complaint is that the Yorkshire Puddings are always cold, lovely place, friendly staff.

Went with a group ladies..sat in a rather dull area..next to 2 windows that were bricked up!!! Tatty blinds covering them..the beef was very tough as were the yorkshire puddings..Dont think we will going back anytime soon..The ladies toilets were tatty and not nice to visit..

10 out 10 for both the food and service, will definitely be back. Fantastic

This place caters for everyone it's staff are friendly and helpful the food was divine and lots of it plenty of parking

After a few visits, we have always been very happy with the food & service. Today, we took family with us & we’re bitterly disappointed. Scampi & chips was incredibly poor & meagre, scampi was over cooked and chips were undercooked. Haddock & chips was marginally better but still very disappointing. None of this can be put down to them being busy, because they weren’t. Staff were pleasant service was very slow. Nobody asked if our food was okay, I wonder why? Very disappointing & we won’t be returning.

We had a surprise baby shower for our friend at the weekend. Service was 10/10 Libby was friendly, attentive and quick with taking orders for the girls that were having brunch. Food came out quickly by Cara and Alfie, who both were friendly and came back to see if everything was OK and asked if we needed anything else. We had a lovely afternoon, and we will be sure to return again soon. Thank you

Made very welcome by all the staff food spot on

EXCELLENT carvery comfortable surroundings will definitely visit again.

Called in today on a friends recommendation and was very impressed both with the staff who were very friendly and efficient. I had the chicken and bacon pie, which was exquisite. My wife had the pasta Carbonara which was also first class. I will certainly be returning in the near future.

Food⭐⭐⭐⭐ Drinks⭐⭐⭐⭐ Service⭐⭐⭐⭐ Vibe⭐⭐⭐

What can I say other than thoroughly disappointed. Considering the prices rival that of what you pay down south the food on this occasion fell well short of the standards that that would be expected. A few things to mention were the pikes of Yorkshire puddings left on top of the heater hood outside of the hood meant they were stone cold and chewy, the roast potatoes were somehow white and chewy. Apart from the beef the rest of the meet had a funny taste to it. When I requested some of each of the meats they gave me 1 single slice of each and pretty small slices to boot, now I don't know about you but one of the main reasons I go to a carvery is my love for a good portion of meat that you can decorate with the trimmings. There were two tables next to us that also made similar complaints so it was noticed by many. One thing I would say is that after complaining my wife got her meal refunded

Having work done, every time I have been the food been amazing last visit, not so much, but I put this down to not being as busy so little dry from hot plate for carvery.

booked a table for sixteen . It was in a dark corner and some of us did not have room to get out . The carvery was not good , beef tough , veg hard and as I have a food allergy could not have my chosen veg as someone ha d spilled sweetcorn into it so as far as I was concerned it was contaminated . So the meal was disappointing and my family were very disappointed as some had travelled quite a way . You go to the bar to order and if there was a notepad left on the table to write down a large order it would be easier . Access to the carvery area is difficult if you are unable to get up the stairs , the grab rail has been partly built onto which for me was difficult to get up and down . THUMBS DOWN ! WILL NOT RECOMMEND AND NOT RETURNING .

Been before a few times and always been my favourite carvery! Came today Sunday 15th and it was poor. Fill up on meat and yorkshires because the veg is shocking and hardly any variety.. honestly don't know whats happened to this place. Gone from the best carvery I've had to the worst in the space of a few months.. avoid.

The food was gorgeous plenty of choice. Beef was so tasty. Polite and friendly staff. Atmosphere great, not so busy you can't move. Definitely one of best carverysI have been to.

I visited yesterday with a friend. We were greeted on arrival by the staff. They genuinely seem to care about there customers!! We had fish and chips and sausage and mash. The chips were a bit scrappy we mentioned it and the lady said she would pass our comments to the chef. The sausage and mash was amazing!! They had a carvery available too which looked fantastic, the food is top notch. After the meal we retired to the bar area, it was a quite night and towards the end there was only us and one other group in. We expected to get kicked out but to the contrary the staff were very accomodating. We drank madri and red wine. The staff even asked if we wanted more drinks despite been the only people there and we felt guilty as surely they wanted to close early and go home. Your staff are an absolute credit and because of this we will return soon!! Special mention to Libby behind the bar who was welcoming and a fabulous host!!

Would have been zero stars if I could have selected that. Table of 9. Children's meal of chicken wrap was deep fried chicken. Very very greasy and chicken hard as nails. Steak pie was raw. Staff was adequate and pleasant however hands seemed tied in terms of doing anything. Offered free desert but we refused this.

We just had our wedding within the Lawrence suite at the 6 acres, and what can we say, Reece and Leah and the team where absolutely outstanding from start to finish. They made the whole experience so seamless and stress free. The day went without a hitch and the food was incredible. Great service guys and thankyou again for making our day so perfect

Booked 6 acres for my mums 75th birthday, our booking was for 12oclock and we had to wait outside for the doors to open meaning we were the first customers through the door. We went in and ordered drinks then 12.15 we were shown to our table. All the party (11 of us) had paid and ordered by 12.30. 7 ordered the carvery and 5 ordered = x2 breakfasts Chicken curry Mixed grill 12oz steak All 7 people had finished the carvery and the other 5 still hadn't received any food, after an hour and 20 mins of booking food my husband asked where the food was to be told it would be 5 minutes. An apology was given explaining the staff who took the order should've told the carvery orders to collect the food when other orders were nearly ready and the 12oz steak took a long time to cook as its thick (medium rare was ordered). Got to say this put a downer on what should've been an enjoyable meal, we won't be returning Very disappointed indeed

Birthday meal out with the family for my grandsons 7th birthday. The meal was lovely. The service was a little slow but we put that down to the number of people in the party. The only downside was room where we sat was very cold.

As always brilliant. The waitresses are really nice and polite.

Dined here for years but today was the first time for Christmas Dinner. Absolutely spot on! It was all very well planned out and we neither felt rushed or as though we had to wait for anything. Generous portions, beautiful food and Thomas who looked after us was exceptionally good. He simply couldn’t do enough for us and is a credit to this place. Thank you all so much for giving up your Christmas Day to make our Christmas Day. Merry Christmas and we look forward to our next meal with you!!! :)

The first thing that hits you when you arrive at the 6 acres is the warm welcome from all the staff. The drinks are on offer are excellent and the food is simply amazing. If you have a chance to try the salmon Sizzler, you won’t be disappointed and if you would like more traditional food like a carvery then you’ll also be well catered for.

Attended with a party of 19 for our Christmas meal. Private room with own bar and toilets could not have been bettered. Superbly looked after by staff and management.

booked xmas lunch for8 people lunch time good parking area .table all ready for us 3 course carvery £12 99 .chef sliced meats various all cooked to perfection then help yourself to potatoes and veg .all very tasty and warm waited quiet awhile to clear plates and bring desert which you order with your main meal .all deserts good coffee tea after .Excellent value .WE HAD TO Book beforehand

My wife and I were celebrating the anniversary of our first date 46 years ago at The 6 Acres (back then it was called the Kings Arms). Great meal at a great price. The bar staff (Libby and Chelsea) were helpful and Thomas the waiter who served at the table was great. We'll be back.

Amazing place for a carvery, staff can't help you enough. My 2 year old daughter is autistic and doesn't like to just be sat. When it is available they put us in a private room so that she isnt effected by noises and can run around!

👍Great restaurant & lovely staff .

Lovely food and staff very friendly and helpful. Portions are very good. Only thing that let's them down are the toilets but hasn't put me off going again

I have been a few times lately and commented on quality of mash, roast potatoes and cauliflower cheese. Still nothing done. Mash dry and congealed, roasts pale and insipid, cauliflower cheese hard and no cheese. Only good thing is the meat. Puddings very expensive and nothing special - desserts in cabinet, look nice but tasteless and taste as been in there a long time. Very disapppointed - will not return.

Visited on the 9th December for a family meal. 45 minutes for the starters to arrive!! The salt and pepper chicken wings were rock hard. Another 45 minutes later until the mains arrived!! Uncooked batter, dry pasta, dry sandwich, the chips were that hard my mum almost broke a tooth and a carbonara that tasted like it had been cooked in a pan of fat!! Yes we complained and yes we got refunded as well as a free drink for the problems with the starters. However i will never ever visit again. Totally disappointed 😞 such a shame when we have visited so many times before and never had any problems. Would have thought with the time we had to wait the food should have been perfect when it arrived but it was far from it. Just 1 massive disaster

Incredible value, not to be missed.

Booked a table for 6 for the festive 2 course meal. Some of the group hadnt arrived and were invited to take a table in the bar to get drinks while we waited. Asked for a low alcohol wine. The young lady serving didn't know what we meant. A bar man told her to go look. She came back with a bottle of white - 11%!! We bought a lager instead. A waitress (loosely termed as no table service once in), asked us to move to our table to 'free up' the table in the bar. As we sat down, she said 'just say table 9 when you go for the carvery.'We joined the queue for the carvery, being moved this way then that way to allow waitresses and other guests to pass. We reached the carvery after 20 minutes only to be told you have to pre-pay. Back to the bar area to pay. Queue another 15 minutes. The meat was very nice, but the veg was undercooked and cold. The roast potatoes were overdone and the onion gravy was overloaded with hard onions. By this time we needed another drink. Another trip to the bar. Basically, your choice is to eat the meal while it's luke warm or leave it to get stone cold while you queue at the bar for a drink. A double vodka and coke was ordered in the next round and was flat. Return to the bar where we were asked how long we'd had the drink. Literally minutes. Then told 'well we had to change the gas 15 minutes ago. We said the coke should be fizzy since we'd only had the drink 5 minutes? Well you must have had a warm glass was the reply. We’d bought a double vodka and only received a single after bar person said to the girl serving - ‘just give her another!’ When told we’d bought a double, it was questioned. When we ordered another round - which included a single vodka, staff were flippant - ‘just a single this time?’ Before leaving, we visited the toilets. One toilet in both ladies and gents which were dirty with poor flush. Note on the wall states any problems should be reported to staff. Didn’t bother given the service received all afternoon had been rude and unhelpful. A complaint sent to the manager prior to this review resulted in a feeble apology. It seems its what we should have expected as many restaurants do not have table service and no matter how he tried to resolve the situation, he would not change my view.

Very average nothing to shout about

I would like to thank 6 acres for fitting 30 of us in at short notice. We had a wonderful evening in the private side function room which was perfect. We have many children in the family so it made it easy to not have...

Only been here the once but it looks lovely and excellent staffing levels

Carvery served on cold plates in a cold dining area spoilt good food.

The food as always was lovely but the service was awful. You now get a maximum of 2 hours at the table which you are told about on arrival. This would be fine if it hadn't taken nearly an hour to get the kids main meals served. As there were 24 of us, then getting everyone queued and through the carvery meant a big rush at the end. It certainly wasn't the relaxing meal out we usually enjoy. Additionally, there was a wedding in the adjacent room and as the rooms are only divided by some thin wooden and poorly fitting doors, our whole meal was accompanied by loud music which was really annoying and made conversation difficult. We are really put off returning which is a real shame after coming here for years. When our Aunty mentioned the poor service to the staff there was no apology and just a 'thank you for your feedback'. I'm not one to write negative reviews but this has really been a poor experience today.

Had a nice meal with some friends.

I went for a carvery with an old work friend on 24.11.22. The atmosphere and staff were pleasant. The choice of meats (beef, turkey or gammon) we're well cooked and carved nicely. The selection of veg was excellent. After the main course there is a...

Last minute decision for a pub meal. Was not disappointed. Lovely carvery. Everything was freshly prepared. Good service. Definitely coming here again.

Can't fault the pub or the food

Very enjoyable birthday meal with family after a recommendation. The upstairs area where the carvery is served was a little crowded, especially with the queue for the carvery being quite large too but there is another room so you could potentially ask to be seated there. The food itself was beautiful however and all adequately hot and plenty of choice, and the desserts were great too. We did have to wait for one dessert however as they forgot about it but all in all, an enjoyable meal out.
