Best Restaurants, Must Try Places in Bradford

"Nestled on the fifth floor of Trinity, Angelica is one of the best rooftop bars in Leeds. You can look out across the city from one of their stylish metal tables or luxurious outdoor sofas, which are all kitted out with parasols and heat lamps. Wine is what they do best."

"After a busy day shopping in Trinity Leeds, enjoy lunch, dinner or drinks in the sky at Angelica's wraparound rooftop bar. The terrace offers panoramic views across the city and is the perfect place to watch the sunset."

"With a wrap around terrace and panoramic city views, Angelica is a real show-stopper. Relax in a luxurious setting with a cocktail prepared by one of their skilled mixologists. What better way to spend a summer’s day?"

"The interior of this popular hipster bar is definitely photogenic, but it’s the roof terrace that is the focus of most Instagram shots. On warm, dry days it’s the perfect place to sit with a drink, admiring the views of the city from above – and when night falls the neon red ‘You Used to Call Me on Your Cell Phone’ sign is the subject of most phone camera lenses."

"Headrow House isn’t just one of the coolest bars in Leeds city centre – it also puts on an array of club nights. But while they might fly under the radar, they’re worth checking out. You could spend the night partying in their second-floor gig room, or go along to one of their day and night terrace parties up on the roof."

"There’s not one, but two roof terraces to choose from at Headrow House. They’re both massive, so you’ll never struggle to socially distance. The upper terrace, Kennedy Meadows, offers incredible views across the city’s rooftops, while the lower terrace has plenty of cosy corners to settle down in."

"It blends an incredible space with amazing views and brilliant food. Led by Executive Chef Murray Wilson, expect well thought out dishes that make the most of seasonal ingredients. They do a special 7-course tasting menu, designed to reinvent classic dishes as vibrant plates of modern food, but their regular menu is just as special with dishes like North Sea halibut with a coconut and kaffir lime sauce."

"The ever-brilliant D&D are the hospitality group behind this restaurant, and they certainly don’t slip up here. Lee Bennet’s kitchen delivers a superb seasonal menu that succeeds thanks to its focus on high-quality local ingredients. Time Out tip: The fish dishes, like pan-seared halibut, are particularly good."

"Level 5, Trinity Leeds, 70 Boar Lane, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS1 6HW. Fantastic views of the city are yours for the taking at this modern British restaurant in the heart of Leeds. Part of London-based D&D group, Crafthouse is popular for its smoky Josper-grilled steaks and native lobsters."

"What:Fettle may be best known for its great value set menus in the evening (two courses for £25), but you can also pop by here for breakfast. Tuck into the likes of mushrooms on pumpernickel rye toast or a slow-smoked pork belly Benedict. Don’t worry if you’re not a fan of early starts either, as Fettle’s breakfast menu is served daily until 4pm."

"Fine dining from morning until night, Fettle has come a long way since its days as a Scandi cafe. They serve beautifully crafted dishes using handpicked and always sustainable produce. By day, they’ll introduce you to new brunch favourites, like their Bokkeumbap, a delicious mix of pork belly and kimchi fried rice with an oh-so-oozy fried egg."

"This hotel, in arguably York's smartest address, positively vibrates with the past, from its medieval stone-flagged entrance hall and leaded windows to the bow-windowed Georgian dining room and 90ft long, Jacobean, oak-panelled gallery on the first floor. It feels elegant but relaxed, with a mix of English and French antiques, modern sofas and contemporary artwork and reportage photography. Fireplaces and leaded windows add character to the rooms while Jo Malone diffusers and thick curtains add luxury."

"This historic court has had knights, kings and royalty walk the halls proving to be the perfect stay for those wishing to escape into a fairytale. Grays Court sits in the heart of the city with direct access to the medieval York walls. The rooms at Grays Court certainly bring the wow factor, with freestanding copper bathtubs, William IV poster beds, all with perfectly framed views of the Minster or the gardens below."

"In the city's premier location, between the Minster and the walls, with a history dating back to the 11th century plus a discreet entrance, this hotel ticks the boxes for atmosphere and privacy. The rooms are quietly elegant; the food is quietly confident."

"Commonly known as Saint Anne's Cathedral, Leeds cathedral is the Roman Catholic Cathedral of the Diocese of Leeds, and is the seat of the Bishop of Leeds. This is one of the most significant heritages building which is surrounded by the modern city of Leeds. The original cathedral was located in St. Anne's Church in 1878, but that building was demolished around 1900."

"One of the most impressive Catholic Cathedrals in the whole of the UK, Leeds Cathedral is a vital attraction for anyone with an interest in religious structures.

"One of England's most impressive collections of sculpture is scattered across the formidable 18th-century estate of Bretton Park, 200-odd hectares of lawns, fields and trees. A bit like the art world's equivalent of a safari park, the Yorkshire Sculpture Park showcases the work of dozens of sculptors both national and international. The park is partly a homage to local heroes Barbara Hepworth (1903−75), who was born in Wakefield, and Henry Moore (1898−1986), though more of their works are on display at the Hepworth Wakefield."

"This outdoor gallery near Wakefield is in a former 18th-century estate encompassing more than 500 acres of fields, lakes, exotic trees,…"
