The food is always excellent. I had the wedge salad and bang bang shrimp. Both were delicious!! I will definitely have them again. Our waiter, Jimmy, is fabulous. He is knowledgeable about the menu, attentive, and always makes us feel welcome. We dine here frequently, and always ask for one of his tables!! We will be back soon.

Our table was ready right away. And although our server was very friendly, the service itself was quite slow. We did the buy one get one burger deal, which we didn’t know about until we got there, but was definitely worth the money! Overall, the food and drinks were very, very good, But luckily we weren’t in a rush because it wasn’t fast

It was pretty quiet for a rainy Saturday evening. Our waitress was very nice and attentive. We got drinks and the ordered chicken nachos, which came out smoking hot and tasty. Got plenty of sour cream and guacamole on the side as well. Then we bother ordered Steaktips with mashed potatoes and broccoli, they also came out hot and delicious. Then had a slice of Lemon cake, which was not bad, and that wrapped it up. Also wanted to note , we sat right near the gas fireplace which was a nice touch as well. Thank you.

Overall service, ambience was good. I had the fresh haddock fish & chips which was excellent and plenty of it, couldn’t finish it and took half home. Hubby’s burger good and cooked as ordered. Other two in party ordered the tips which they said good but not that tender and didn’t finish them. Caesar salad side was just ok. Lots of good choices on the menu to try, prices are a bit higher than other places we’ve been for the quality we got. We would go back however.
Bradford TavernResponded on March 13, 2025
Thank you for the recommendation. We are sorry to hear about the steak tips as that is one of our most popular menu items as well as our Caesar Salad. We hope to see you again soon to give it another try. :)
