Cosy little thai massage room. Fantastic deep tissue massage, perfect for an active body needing tension release. I’m a dancer and quite often go for massages leaving dissatisfied as they never quite work into the muscles as much as I would want. This place was fantastic, friendly, and I have left with my muscles feeling relaxed and lighter. Highly recommend. Thank you!

I played X-Initiation at the beginning of March (luckily just before the lockdown), X-it's mobile game where they take the escape experience to you. I am an Escape Room lover and have done many different Escape Rooms before but this was my first experience of a mobile version. I have to admit, at first I was a bit sceptical about how the enjoyment would compare to being in an actual escape room with all the bells and whistles, but I was pleasantly surprised that this did not disappoint! It was thoroughly enjoyable and exciting, with a good level of challenge. I was in a group of 4, with 2 of us being quite experienced with escape rooms, and we both enjoyed the experience, finding some of the tasks/puzzles quite challenging to work out. We completed it in good time within the allocated hour, but felt involved and busy throughout. It doesn't take up much room, we had it all fit on one table, but I suppose you could have it dotted about in different parts of the room if you wanted. Our host Clare was delightful, arrived on time and was very prompt in answering if we were stuck and needed help. I highly recommend this mobile experience, what a great idea that the escape room can come to you! Can't wait to go there and play Afterlife!

We were visiting to see 1917 on the IMAX screen. Brilliant to see at that scale. The museum has some good permanent displays and the galleries often have interesting exhibitions to see. Good for kids and families but worth a visit whoever you are.

Having lived within 8 miles of Cartwright Hall all my life (50 years plus) this was unbelievably my first visit and what a treat. The Hall and grounds are magnificent and the exhibits (as an art lover) were quite wonderful. So many noted and popular original pieces (huge Hockney display, Lowry, Lichtenstein) to name a few. And incredibly it was free to enter!!! Multiculturalism is also celebrated and offered a great insight into Bradford's history relating to this. Although in the depths of Autumn when I visited, I could appreciate how amazing it will be to go again in the Spring or Summer to get the full benefits of the quite spectacular landscaped gardens and Lake. I have now run out of superlatives so will let you decide yourselves.
