Bar Pub

👍👍 Great selection of beers and friendly staff. Pork pie was excellent. Close to the train station and a 10 minute bus ride away from Bradford Park Avenue football ground. Great place for a pre-match pint. People often mention good, Great, selection, beers, friendly, staff, beer, great, excellent, pies,

    Great selection of beers and friendly staff. Pork pie was excellent. Close to the train station and a 10 minute bus ride away from Bradford Park Avenue football ground. Great place for a pre-match pint.

    Fantastic choice of guest and local ales. If your not sure what to try ask the lad behind the bar, he knows his stuff. Definitely a must place to visit, food smells fantastic and the corned beef pie and peas is absolutely delicious

    Jacobs wells is a friendly community focused pub. With a great selection of real ale, cider and excellent top shelf whiskey and Gin. Good atmosphere and good location to train station. Dan and Catrina are good landlords bringing excellent conversation to a good homely space. Sit outside if the weather is good, or inside by the fire if not.

    A fantastic real ale pub in Bradford city centre. The beers are always spot on with a great selection, good value and excellent homemade pie and mushy peas. Warm and friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend as one of the best pubs in Bradford.

    Good beer. good music. Building is a bit dishevelled and toilets are not the best but that's not too bad.

  • 5/5 Ben U. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice pub out of the way but close to the centre and station. Pleasant staff, excellent pies and great beer. One of the best options in the city centre!

  • 4/5 Phil W. 1 year ago on Google
    One of my favourite pubs. Haven't been for a good while as the next door car park was being used as a vaccination centre. Called in today to find the expected lovely beer including dark ales, and as a bonus some live Irish Folk music. What's not to like? Well actually.. ... .a very loud and excitable barmaid who kept coughing whilst she was pulling a pint. Most off putting, hence the dropped star. Otherwise pretty much a perfect pub

  • 5/5 Andy Stimpson (. 1 year ago on Google
    Terrific beer, coal fire, old school pub vibe, excellent music and by golly the best pies (made on site) that I've ever had. It doesn't get much better than this.

  • 5/5 Carl W. 1 year ago on Google
    A proper pub with friendly staff and the bus stop's just outside. Could be bigger, but that wouldn't be better.

    Great place. Spent all afternoon there with friends drinking great real ales and eating great home made pork pies. A very enjoyable time was had by the whole group. BTW. It is now known as Jacobs.

  • 5/5 Gaz R. 2 years ago on Google
    The best place to stop off if you want really good craft ale or cider at a good price when in the centre of town at any time of day. Cheap traditional bar snacks. Varied drinks. Good ambience. Pleasant staff.

  • 4/5 lorac s. 2 years ago on Google
    Big selection of cask ale, pie and peas for those of you are hungry.

  • 5/5 Tom L. 2 years ago on Google
    Exactly what we needed before thr Beatles Get Back showing at the IMAX- which is literally 2 minutes round the corner. Lovely and rare atmosphere, great selection of beers and we even had some folk musicians on hand to add to the atmosphere. True gem.
