WORLD PEACE CAFE in Bradford

Very weird vibes, sandwich was okay but staff were weirdly confused by the order (something on their menu - roasted veg and hummus sandwich) and it took a great deal of effort to convey the order. Small offerings of hummus and only peppers. Very quiet, quite clean, just felt very awkward.

I only had a coffee ☕️ was a lovely clean place and staff very friendly will call again

Beautiful building, calm atmosphere, incredibly kind staff. Plenty of space in cafe but it's an old listed building with nowhere they could put a ramp in. steps to entrance and toilets.

If your looking for a peaceful space to enjoy your lunch this is the place to be. It has beautiful food made with love and there are two rooms to choose from where this a library feels to one of them with comfortable seating. Prices are very reasonable also.

Calm, peaceful, relaxing and great tasting heart warming food for the soul. I will be back there again when I get the chance.

Wonderful place, with great veggie food, this is a Charitable cafe and helps many people in the community. Well worth supporting and great food.

Delicious homemade snacks, main meals and cakes, coffees and teas in a calming setting in a period building. Friendly helpful staff.

Nice building, had a tasty quick lunch, latte and delicious lemon polenta cake. Recommended!

Great food, especially if you like vegaterian, staff were very friendly and welcoming!

A wonderful peaceful place to have very reasonably priced vegetarian meals, or coffee and cake with your friends. Lovely friendly staff. They sell gifts and have a reading room where you can buy second hand books.

This vegetarian and vegan cafe serves filling, home made hot and cold food and beverages. Perfect for a spot of lunch or relaxing break over a book in the well stocked second hand bookshop. A range of incence and buddhist books, posters, etc are also available.

Welcoming atmosphere, good service and wonderful vegetarian food. Recommend the lasagna.

Fabulous food and such great people! Thank you.

Lovely quiet and charming as always

Lovely coconut and red lentil soup, great coffee and the occasional tune from Henry x

Peaceful, pleasant ambiance, excellent food, very convenient location

The World Peace Cafe is delightfully different to the usual fare served in Keighley. It’s entirely vegetarian with some vegan options. The regular menu is great, typically with a choice of two tasty soups. All of the food is prepared by the staff but, as some have mentioned, some of it is made in batches and frozen to keep it fresh. The food is delicious and is good value. The specials menu adds a few (regularly changing) veggie favourites too. The people are extremely friendly. Service can be a little slower when the cafe is very busy, but it’s a pleasant enough environment to wait in. I’m a regular here and don’t see that changing. Keep up the good work WPC!

Amazing food. Friendly and cheerful service. Always enjoy my visits.

Nice atmosphere, friendly and decent prices.

An amazing place of tranquility and meaning amidst the business of daily living. A great vegetarian café with friendly staff.

Highly recommend the World Peace cafe situated in the heart of Keighley. Situated opposite the bus station it’s a well located peaceful haven in the busy town centre. All food I’ve enjoyed there has been tasty & served with a smile. And the red lentil & coconut soup is sublime! The menu is fully vegetarian or vegan & all food is homemade. The cafe also accommodate intolerances & allergies to a very high standard. There are books & magazines to read should you wish and there’s also a gift area offering books, candles, incense and cards. To the back of the cafe there is a family type room with a snug feel to it. Comfy couches & tables make for an ambient visit plus there’s a well stocked book shelf offering donated books on sale for a small contribution. Each time I visit I feel calm & well and am made to feel like a welcomed friend. Thank you World Peace Cafe ☮️

This beautiful peaceful oasis in the middle of a bustling town is perfect for contemplation and delicious vegetarian / vegan food

The World Peace Cafe is a wonderful place for a brew and/or a meal. We had the vegan panini and they were amazing. Toasted perfectly with humus and red peppers. They were fantastic. The cafe has two bookshelves of books for sale. One is in the adjacent room and they are wide range of used books. The new books are in the main room. They are books on Buddhism. The staff are super friendly and helpful. The cafe is run by volunteers. The World Peace Cafe is a great place to check out with delicious food.

Lovely place to go and highly recommended. The world peace cafe here is a really nice place to go to have a quiet relaxing drink and something to eat.

Went today with a friend, was my first time and dont think I will be likely to return. When I ordered my food it was but down wrong so i was charged for what they put down. This was cheaper than what i asked for. I wanted a toastie but just got a sandwich. Am not particularly a fan of cheese so if I eat it I only ever have melted cheese. My friend is a vegetarian so we thought it would be a nice change. Not much choice on the menu to pick from either, and I felt completely out of my comfort zone in there and felt like I couldn't explain that I had asked for a toastie rather than a sandwich.

A beautiful tranquil veggie cafe set in the heart of busy Keighley opposite the bus station, The volunteer staff always greet and serve you with a big smile. Menu is varied and has vegan/ gluten free options. Home made soup is highly recommended. Without doubt the best fresh coffee in town with some scrumpy cakes.

Very disappointing first trip to the World Peace Cafe for lunch - the "specials" as it turns out are small frozen microwave ready meals, with a handful of supermarket salad from a bag. Not at all what I'd expect from a vegetarian cafe. Drinks were okay and it had a pleasant atmosphere.

This cafe is in the Buddhist centre for Keihhley and has a calm atmosphere But only serves vegetarian food... Soups are good and home made

Really peaceful oasis in the middle of a bustling town centre. The food is simple, tasty, vegan fare and yummy cakes are also available.

nice choice of drinks, and soups, but the carrot cake is the outstanding item to have as the name says, it is very quiet, and peaceful ambient environment

Not well promoted at all but do not let that put you off. This is an informal and friendly café. Great veggie and vegan selection for its size

Never been before but my friend recommended it and we met there for lunch yesterday. It was really pleasant with the sun streaming in through the window and we enjoyed a lovely lunch of soup and a panini. It is obviously a popular place as there was a constant stream of customers. The staff are volunteers and I was talking to the gentleman in charge who told me the money raised goes towards the running of the building. Will happily go again.

Centrally situated near to the bus station and Arndale Shopping Centre, this cafe is the quiet heart of Keighley. Friendly staff and good food along with books to browse and artwork to enjoy make this an ideal place to catch your breath on a trip to Keighley.

Great vegetarian and vegan food and great coffee served by volunteers. No baby changing facilities and hard to get up steps outside but inside very comfortable. Plenty of books to choose from and read or buy too second hand which is nice. A great place to sneak off to solo.

An excellent range of tasty vegetarian & vegan food served by friendly volunteers at extremely reasonable prices in a very relaxing environment.

with all the nicest regards for keighley this little piece of tranquility amongst the relative scrappy centre was welcome respite. reasonably priced, great veggie food & a relaxing interior.

What a shame, the world peace café has decided to put their prices up in line with Costa!! what they need to remember is that they are not paying out on 10 + salaries as ALL the staff at the world peace café VOLUNTEER!!!!!! Does it really have to be run as a large profit making establishment, and not more as a community service venture which is more than simply making as much money as possible? A lot of people I have encouraged to go will not now be able to visit as they have not got a lot of money, but valued the spiritual experience and the chance to meditate and calm and de clutter from every day life and re charge vital batteries. The soup and serenity was excellent, and £4 was ample to pay, but now it is £4.50 and too expensive for an area like Keighley. If it was in Harrogate or Ilkley then you can expect these prices, but not in this area so please re think what you are about!!!!

If you are shopping in Keighley this cafe is the best place to get a coffee or specialist tea, the food is lovely! The cafe is a vegetarian cafe and I am not a vegetarian, but food really is excellent! The staff are lovely and the place is extremely clean. There is a feeling of peace in this cafe, which makes it an oasis in our busy lives!

Visiting the world peace cafe I was pleased to discover a small oasis far from the madding crowd. A serene accommodating environment with a varied and interesting clientèle. The veggie burgers are an absolute must and the carrot cake essential. The volunteer staff from varying backgrounds and continents make for interesting conversation and atmosphere. Overall a friendly welcoming environment.

Great location next to bus station. Warm and friendly atmosphere with good food and coffee. Especially enjoyed the back room full of second hand books of which we bought several... Think profits from cafe go towards the restoration of this lovely building. Will visit again when next in the area.

we visited the cafe with children and found it a lovely peaceful place. The books at the back kept the children happy plus some treats from the cafe. The coffee was very good and the staff were friendly and accomodating. A great location in the middle of Keighley and I will definitely be going back

Popped in here for a coffee and home made cake (extremely tasty) and we were made very welcome. Friendly staff, pleasant and welcoming decor, I will be trying the delicious looking food next time. I would definitely recommend this little Keighley gem.

A great place to unwind with a good cappucino. The staff are friendly. The food is nice with lovely cakes. It is a favourite place of mine to visit.

This is an excellent place to visit, meditate and eat fab vegetarian food. It is friendly and calm and very welcoming. Try the soup and serenity option.

This is a real gem of a place, food, surroundings, staff all very warm & welcoming. Makes such a change to have a sense of calm around you as you eat. Choice of food very good, looks and is very appetising, clearly thought & preparation has gone into what they offer, staff accommodating and very helpful, highly recommend you pay this establishment a visit, and keep going!

My partner and I have been here many times for the excellent vegetarian food, and amazing cakes. It really is a gem and the building inside is so beautiful, we were told by staff how it was lovingly restored and turned into the Buddhist centre and cafe that it is today. There is some lovely artwork from local artists in the cafe too, which is ever-changing. The volunteers are normally very helpful and friendly, frequently someone new is being trained alongside more experienced staff. On our last visit we did have some trouble getting a good coffee, as we ordered a large (for 2) and the staff hadn't put enough ground coffee in- it looked like weak tea. However when I asked for it to be put right, the gentleman in charge seemed irritated, he asked me if I'd pressed the plunger down properly and replaced the large cafetiere with a mug-sized one and put far too much coffee in; the coffee poured out of it was full of grounds. By then I couldn't be bothered to complain twice, so we finished our lovely meal and left. I would recommend the volunteer who dealt with us might need some support with his customer service skills.

This place is a gem. Beautiful, peaceful and the food is good. It's by far and away our favourite place in Keighley and I strongly recommend the veggie burger. I am really impressed by the centre. It has a lovely atmosphere and is a great place to relax. The staff are I think mostly volunteers, and it's very friendly and inclusive. It;s also extremely well priced. Highly recommended

Home cooked food (excellent soups), good selection of coffees - teas -, lovely cakes. Relaxing atmosphere and book exchange
