First visited the NEW Bradshawgate Cafe & Bar on Tuesday 22/10 and I think I’ve found my new local! The owners are super friendly and lovely and are so willing listen to the locals with regards to what they want for their town. I really do think this is going to be the making for our Town Centre!! Thank you and see you again soon!

This is probably the first review of 'the new Bradshawgate Cafe and Bar'. Yes - you read that right - Cafe AND Bar! This is the first licensed premises on Bradshawgate for 18 years!!! The owner ( very nice friendly guy) has taken over the old Bradshawgate Cafe and turned it into a day into night venue serving food, tea coffee etc.and a good range of draught beers and wines. They also serve cocktails. He is hoping soon to have tables and chairs outside so that people can enjoy a drink in the open air. We just had a coffee and toast. It was fine - it's very early days and the staff are still learning the ropes. The decor is nice and it's comfortable and relaxing. We have promised to go back one evening soon for a drink. I believe this is just the kind of business we need to bring some life and vibrancy back to Bradshawgate and the owner is very brave to take the risk and be the first to stride out with such a venture. I really hope the decent people of Leigh will support him so that other business people are encouraged to follow suit and restore some life and pride to our town.

Stopped in for a beer and a coffee. The coffee was top quality and a cappuccino for only 2 is a good deal. Pints was good and nice music playing. Upstairs there is two good quality pool tables and more seating.
