Sweet CentreRestaurant

The Sweet Centre opened on Lumb Lane in Bradford in December 1964, started by two brothers, Abdul Rehman and Mohammed Bashir, and is now run by the third generation of the same family — one of the founding institutions of the Bradford curry, on the same site for sixty years. It cooks Kashmiri and Pakistani food the way it always has, and took Best Eatery at the 2024 Bradford Curry Awards for its trouble. In a city that has as good a claim as any to be the curry capital of Britain, the Sweet Centre is where a lot of it began. Go for the classics, cooked by the family that helped write them.
