Old Bank — Restaurant in Bradford

I have always loved this place however its been a while since I've been and boy have things changed. I waited 45 minutes for food with no warning of this when I ordered. I was charged more than advertised as the lager that is in a deal was not available so it was substituted for a different one but I had to pay the extra even though its their fault. I only got my food because people who ordered after me were getting theirs and I asked what was happening with mine. When it arrived the chips were cold, coleslaw had clearly been out a while as it was dried on top and the salad has seen better days. Despite all this, as I left I said bye to the girl behind the bar and got no response. So clearly now The Old Bank is not a friendly place to eat good food at a reasonable price. I won't be...

Very dissapointing after having very enjoyable meals there in the past with good service not sure what happened tonight. Chicken basket with chips no coleslaw with either meals only one of us got the bbq sauce. Nobody came to ask if we were happy with meal, perhaps they were aware customers would not be happy with slip in past good food/service. Chips were hard/uncooked chicken was lovely which was a blessing because once they had taken a further payment for drinks and deserts they then informed me that the only desert available was cheesecake. Oh dear notva great...

I ordered a cottage pie... Whatever it was it was not that..

Beef was grey, and ground rather than minced - looked like the type of food you'd buy for your dog. No veg or gravy in it - came on the side instead. Pie was covered in melted red Leicester to try to make up for the lack of any taste - didn't. Whole thing was cold. I paid £7 for this by the way. Can get a tastier one for £4 at J. D. Wetherspoon.

Way too few staff on - two poor girls were running around catering for at least fifty people on their own. I'm betting they weren't even paid accordingly either....
