Bradford is a great day out. There's canal walks, river walks, plenty of picturesque and historic buildings to take in. There's also several pubs, some along the canal, others in the heart of the town. The choices for eating out would satisfy anyone... there's great pub food, an outstanding Italian restaurant, Thai, Tuti's a friendly and delicious Indian, as well as plenty more to choose from.
