Vanilla Rooms is a Bradford restaurant at 524 Leeds Road, combining a substantial savoury menu with the desserts and alcohol-free drinks for which the venue is particularly well known. Table service and a decorative dining room make it more than a simple dessert counter.
The savoury selection draws strongly on South Asian cooking, with lamb chops, seekh kebabs, chicken wings, tandoori chicken and masala fish among the choices. Naan, roti, chips and vegetables can be added to build a fuller meal.
Main courses also include steaks, burgers, lasagne and chicken penne arrabbiata, reflecting the restaurant’s wider Asian and Italian influences. This variety makes the venue workable for mixed groups whose preferences range from grilled meat and spice to familiar pasta dishes.
Desserts, mocktails and milkshakes are a major part of the experience and provide plenty of options for an evening visit without alcohol. Nuts, dairy, gluten and other allergens may occur throughout both the savoury and sweet menus, so guests should discuss current ingredients with staff.
Address: 524 Leeds Road, Bradford BD3 9QX, England
