Was great on Saturday 20.12.25. audio quality for blink was a little bit of a downer but made up for it with an excellent green day cover. I had a great time n drinks were nice. Met loads of nice people there. And our friends Marco and Rebecca came all the way from Italy to experience it with us. I'm glad we came and would happily come back to experience it again.

The venue on first impressions was friendly and welcoming, with the door staff and ticket staff been very accommodating and humorous, putting us at ease instantly. Inside the venue we was greeted by the the barr staff who again went out of their way to spark a conversation with our party of 6. The drinks were fairly priced. Our Friend had come from Italy to see the band for my partners Birthday and they are already planning their next trip back to another event at Night train! The green day and blink 182 act were brilliant, interactive with the audience and played a range of old and new songs! My son who is 17 loved attending his first music event and is also planning another at night train. We would definitely recommend to all and the acts and tributes they have planned look great! We will definitely be back. Thank you!

Went to see a green day/blink 182 concert here. If you're into emo, punk, rock or anything a bit alternative you'll love it here. Really good size venue, good stage set up, the staff were welcoming and happy to have a laugh. Everyone seemed to just really enjoy it. Good selection of alcohol, including their own night train lager which was really nice. Very fair prices too not like a lot of music venues that hike up the prices for an event. Overall we really enjoyed it and have already booked in for a few more concerts. Would definitely recommend 5*

All for supporting local venues at this difficult economic time, so a 3 star review may seem harsh but these are my first impressions on visiting for a live band. First up is the bar: 1) I wanted a plastic pint pot with the venue logo on it, my preference would be to make my own decision to buy one, not be forced to. Sure, you could faff about at the end of the night getting a refund but who wants the hassle for £2? It has the appearance of a money grasping scheme with some greenwashing as cover. 2) Slow service getting drinks. Bar area is pretty long and two staff can't cover it all, which results in a crap shoot of whether you get served by being in the right place at the right time. Balance here of staff costs versus takings, but slow service will deter people from going back to the bar. Second is that the stage area has a supporting pillar almost bang in the middle at the front. Makes it difficult to see the whole band when up close. Part of the fabric of the building so not something that can be removed unfortunately. Lastly, looks like Bradford Council have killed the city centre with large pedestrian only zone making it difficult to get near to the venue by car. Particularly noticeable with a lack of taxis who don't bother servicing the centre anymore. Not the fault of the venue, more the council policies, but that does impact people coming for a gig.
