The Old Bank pub in Bradford is reopening after renovations, featuring a new look, offerings, and management.
The street got a makeover recently. Funding came from a government program, creating a pedestrian area with benches and green spaces. Before, buses and stops lined the pub’s front.
Joanne Gibson will manage The Old Bank. She previously ran The Star and Pack Horse pubs, and many Bradford people may recognize her.
The Bradford BID supports city center businesses. They say the pub looks amazing now, featuring stylish insides and new lights. Workers carefully restored old details.
The bar is fully stocked with real ale, IPAs, spirits, wines, and non-alcoholic drinks. Old photos of Bradford businesses decorate the bar, and local sports heroes also feature.
You can find lots of seating, including quiet spots and a music-free snug. The upper level is available for private events. Bingo happens on Wednesday afternoons, and they plan to have live music too.
The Old Bank is a great addition. It will improve Bradford’s nightlife. People should go and check it out.
