The Record Cafe in Bradford

Awesome place, a gem in Bradford!

Great quirky venue. Lots of great beers, decent glass of wine too.

Brilliant venue that is one of North Parade's gems.

Great music, service, food , and drinks.

Compact Restraunt, with an attraction for Vinyl Record lovers.

Lovely place to relax and chat. The only downside I thought, was that it was pretty expensive for my pocket.

Called in for a beer on the way to the football. Great selection of cask and keg ales. Place was rammed and servers working flat out but liked the retro, funky decor. Would be good to come back and chill with some meats & cheees and a beer or two more.

Excellent service and a friendly environment, good range of cask and craft ales, well worth a visit

Nice relaxed atmosphere, nice beers, fairly quiet

My favourite bar in Bradford, Great choice of drinks and great atmosphere.

Love coming here! Great beer. And comfortable if I'm on my own

Superb spot. Great beers for the connoisseur… and a few for the non connoisseurs. Nice cheese and meat plates. Always a have a special stout on board which makes it a cut above most

A nice find for me while up for the football, excellent well kept beer.

One of the best bars in Bradford located on North Parade where there are several other good places to drink. Excellent beers, plus gins and other spirits, nice ham and cheese selection always very tasty and upstairs a haven for lovers of vinyl. Such a chilled and relaxed vibe and so clean and friendly.

Fantastic selection of beers and a great atmosphere. Perfect for a pre-match pint in friendly surroundings.

Great quality beer and a lovely post match atmosphere (Helped by a 4-0 victory!)

Love this place - always make a point of calling in when in town. Blown away by the charcuterie !!

Lovely place to have a drink on North Parade. Great aptomphere and great selection of ales, lagers and gins

Great place to relax, dog friendly and great atmosphere. Staff very helpful.

Great beers, great gins, friendly bar staff, fantastic atmosphere, great music, what more could you want? The perfect place.

Went for some drinks last Thursday which happened to be a quiz night with a great host some decent prizes and an open the box raffle to finish.Really good selection of drinks had some black pudding pate which was very nice lots of vinyl to purchase if you want,friendly staff.Highly Recommend

Easily the best bar in Yorkshire

What can I say? Great service, fantastic beers, cheese and meat. Record selection upstairs is great and we were treated to a lecture on 1970s Chilean football and politics. This place might be my heaven!?

On entering this establishment one is met with a warm welcome. Bar staff are friendly and there is an ever changing list of beers and ciders available in the form of keg and cask. Settling in our seats with the chosen refreshments came across a delightful menu with the said food on display just feet away in a chiller. After much deliberation, we decided on and ordered. Set out on wooden platters and delightfully presented we tucked in. And what a delight! Pate,cheese, meats, bread and pickles, we chose well 😊

Great place for a pint. One of if thee best places in Bradford CC....

Visited before attending football match. Excellent craft beer ( Northern Monk), friendly, informative staff and sat outside in the warm Bradford sunshine chatting to locals.

We love the record cafe, whenever we pop into Bradford we always try to call in, the staff and atmosphere is so welcoming. They have a great selection of beers, I’m a fruity beer girl and they do a mango beer that is beautiful also the truffle cheese is to die for! Great way to spend a few chilled hours with food food and drink 🍺

Enjoyed a lovely couple of pints and meat platter

One of the best placed I have had such a nice ambiance and a pint of german lager!! Definitely must visit in Bradford

This place literally feels like old british cafe with a twist of German Lagers and amazing ambience. Loved their playlist too xD

Great place for beer with Spanish sausage and cheeses. Wish I lived nearer

FOR MORE, GO LISTEN TO OUR PODCAST - PUBTROTTERS PUBCAST WE ALWAYS GIVE 5s AS ALL PUBS ARE DIFFERENT AND GREAT Record and beer...enough said...although maybe not. Amazing bar person, great decor, records for sale, superb beer selection and spirits, couldn't ask for anything more

Amazing place. Brilliant selection of ales and craft beers. Worth a visit of any ale fan.

A break after visited Bradford. Very nice place with a good atmosphere. Tried hazy pale ale and milk stout from handpumps, but you can try also from other cask's beers. To visit in Bradford!

I just love this place! They have a perfectly curated selection of beers, quality wines and tasty charcuterie that makes me want to stay all evening. Staff is lovely and welcoming. Looking forward to another visit!

Great little café with good choices for food & drink. The tapas options are well-considered, the staff are attentive and the ambience pleasant; great to find this kind of place tucked away in Bradford!

Bar + upstairs room + outside seating. 4 h/ pulls good choice of beers + craft. service very good.

I love this pub - cannot fault it - had the Sobrasada sausage spread on toasted sourdough- a bargain at £4.75. The ale is pretty cheap as well and kept to perfection.

As always. Great beers excellent condition at a well run venue.

Great atmosphere there and also great range of beers, worth to visit 👍

Great selection of beer and a nice atmosphere with added vinyl and meat and cheese 😁

Excellent craft beer. Can either get a good cask pint for under £4 or get a top class TIPA or sour for £6 a third. Brilliant range and lovely atmosphere particularly before and after the football.

What a little gem.. Beer pork and vinyl

Really nice bar. Visited Bradford for football and this was perfect for pre-match with a mix of home & away fans. Friendly locals and a great selection of beers at reasonable prices.

Good choice of ales and craft (and key keg??)..

Visited on a wet Wednesday afternoon. Had coffee and a snack. Staff friendly and professional. Surrounding is comfortable and atmospheric. Didn't try the beer, but a fair old range. Seems like everything you'd want from a bar.

Great beer and atmosphere. Would recommend to anyone.

Great staff, great food, great times ❤

Love this place. Interesting beers and range of tasty cold cuts and cheeses plus olives, bread etc. class act.

Must be among the best Real Ale pubs in Yorkshire. Always a warm welcome from Keith & his team.

Fab spot with great selection of food and drink. Really hard to leave as its such a pleasant space to spend your time.

Excellent and with a record shop upstairs.

Brilliant bar, food and atmosphere 10/10

I wish this bar was in my town. Great atmosphere and superb hosts

Best beer place in Bradford. Great staff, fantastic range of beer and tasty platters to soak up some of that fine ale.

Friendly staff, good selection of beers and records.

A group of us visiting Bradford with family had a few drinks in this bar, (ages ranging from 30's -mid 60's) not that this should matter any way!!! we were then refused further drinks because we were informed that we were too noisy!!! Are you not allowed to enjoy yourself in this place??? Are you not allowed to laugh!!! We were absolutely appalled!! Would never visit this place again! If you want to enjoy yourself do not go here!

A fab relaxed place to enjoy a range of bevvies.

Great bar on North Parade serving craft keg and cask at fair prices given the quality and diversity of choice. If you're into records we'll, pop upstairs for a treat!

Great little bar. Great range of beers, loved Desperately Seeking Dopamine and the 12% smoked chilli stout was interesting. Friendly staff, great decor and the added bonus of a vinyl shop upstairs.

Excellent place with friendly staff

Nice chilled place selling a variety of platters and beers

Visited for the first time to attend a lunchtime lecture on popularity of adult replica football shirts. Really interesting little pub/cafe/record shop! The pub/cafe was down stairs and the record bit was on the first floor. Didn't visit the record shop, so can't comment on that bit. Quite small, so did seem rather crowded and busy, but great atmosphere. Very friendly staff, excellent selection of real ales and the prices seemed quite reasonable. They host a monthly football related lunchtime lecture prior to Bradford City home games, so will definitely be going again. Didn't have anything to eat there, so can't comment on the menu. Apparently they also host regular live music events. Definitely recommend a visit.

Proper little gem is this place.

Nice place for a drink and a chat. Knocked off a star because the vinyl revival is overhyped and overpriced.

A good pint and wickid tunes, nice place to sit down and relax recommend to anyone.

Will definitely be making a return visit. Small welcoming pub a short walk from Forster Square station. Good selection of real ales and craft beer.

Pints and records, a great combination for a shop!

It's a great bar. Great beer, great charcuterie and great people. I bloody love the record cafe. I don't come as often as I like but I come as often as I can. If you haven't, visit. If you have, come again.

Excellent place and friendly staff

A great atmospheric pub good beer and food, they have a great record selection for sae up stairs

I visited this place prior with my daughter and a friend prior to going to see Doncaster Rovers v Bradford City at Valley Parade, it had been recommended to me by another friend. It was really good. A great selection of beers that were well kept, really friendly staff, despite being ran off their feet, friendly customers too, it’s great to be made to feel welcome as an away fan! Top marks to the guy on the door too. Very friendly, funny and helpful. It’s a great pre football pub but I will definitely be coming back when it’s quieter! Highly recommend if you want a good pint of beer in Bradford.

Was actually playing gypsy jazz with Appel4 but this place has such a great vibe, lovely stuff, delicious food and air conditioning, which is a bonus atm!!

Great selection of beers, excellent service

A fine selection of ales, records and Iberian charcuterie. A gem in Bradord and North Parade

Individual theme, good atmosphere, good choice of beers, friendly staff.

Unfailingly great beer selection, decor and music- always a 'must' when we go for beers on North Parade

What a fabulous place, serving real ale, tapas, and selling vinyl, what's not to like?

Very welcoming, very good selection of drinks.

Such a lovely place! So happy that Bradford has something like this. Recently moved up to Bradford and I felt overjoyed when I walked into the café. Great selection of drinks, really nice bites, lovely atmosphere and vibe, and very friendly service all the time. Highly recommend this gem and hope it goes from strength to strength!😊

Didn't have time for a food/drink visit...went for the vinyl! Have to say that it is lovely.. spent nearly £80 on music ... Will definitely be returning!

Great little bar with great ale

Well worth a visit if you like beer, cute record shop upstairs, even good coffee

Always a warm welcome. Great beers. Lovely relaxing atmosphere and the dog can come too.

Nice beer that got me a little drunk and great entertainment from The Gurgles

Great selection of beers, friendly staff 👍🏻

One of my favourite bars ever. Excellent beer, beer snacks and atmosphere

Excellent atmosphere and great music and beer.

Quirky real ale/craft ale bar with vinyl record shop upstairs and a small deli counter. Good quality beer available. Is in the 2021 CAMRA Good Beer Guide.

Warm welcome , friendliness is apparent and cracking beer and ham .

Excellent venue cracking beers and real records upstairs !!

Lovely place for drinks but a bit expensive

Great beers and great atmosphere for pre match drinks..

Really liked this quirky place. Great beer and lovely space. Thank you.

There is a reason this place is rated as the pub of the year in Bradford by CAMRA. The pint of stout I have just had the pleasure of drinking here was outstanding.

Good selection of different genres but quite expensive, nice relaxed feel where you can get a snack, coffee and browse through vinyl
