Westgate in Bradford

Ah, Westgate – it's one of those unassuming spots in Bradford that really grows on you once you step inside. From what I've gathered from the reviews, it's all about that genuine, welcoming feel; the staff are dead chatty and make every visit feel like you're popping round to a mate's house for a pint. The beer is reasonably priced too, so you can relax and enjoy without breaking the bank, and it's especially buzzing when Bradford City's playing – a proper haven for fans to gather and cheer on the team. Plus, those Wednesday bingo nights sound like a right laugh, with the chance to win a big jackpot adding a fun twist to the evening. On the flip side, it's a shame there's no website to easily look up details, which might leave you scrambling for info if plans change. And with it only open six days a week, you might find yourself out of luck on that seventh day when you're in the mood for a drink. Overall, though, it's a solid choice for a relaxed night out – I'd say give it a go if you're in the area, as the positives far outweigh the niggles, and it's got that authentic local charm that'll keep you coming back.
