One of the best restaurants open in Bradford right now! Truly authentic Pakistani cuisine - did not feel boring or the same mix grill you get everywhere. Each piece of meat cooked to perfection, beautiful flavours and felt so light to eat. The BBQ platter unbeatable. The service from Laiba and Amir Hamza so polite, attentive and helpful - and the best part the lamb karahi so fresh, light and delicious! Genuinely one of my best experiences and highly reccomend everyone to give this a go!

A Culinary Gem: Butt Karahi Bradford If you're searching for a truly authentic taste of Lahore, look no further than Butt Karahi, the official franchise of the legendary original in Lahore. This restaurant is not just a place to eat it’s an experience that transports you straight to the bustling streets of Pakistan's culinary capital. We began our journey with the Mixed Grill, and what a start it was! Cooked over traditional charcoal, each bite was bursting with smoky perfection. Tender, juicy, and expertly seasoned, it was an epic starter that set the tone for the rest of the meal. For the main course, we couldn’t resist the Lamb Karahi, and let me tell you, it was a masterpiece. The rich, fragrant spices, tender lamb, and traditional preparation made it a dish that could rival the best in Lahore itself. It’s hands down the best karahi in Bradford, and each bite felt like a nostalgic trip back to Pakistan. The ambiance, the flavors, and the commitment to authenticity make Butt Karahi a must-visit for anyone craving genuine Pakistani cuisine. Whether you’re a foodie or simply someone who appreciates great food, this place is not to be missed.

The food was nothing short of exquisite—authentic Pakistani cuisine at its finest. Each dish was bursting with flavor, beautifully presented, and clearly made with the freshest ingredients. It truly felt like a journey to Pakistan through the richness and authenticity of the flavors. The staff were incredible—warm, welcoming, and genuinely attentive to every need. They went above and beyond to ensure our experience was perfect, accommodating any requests with a smile and making us feel like valued guests. The restaurant itself was impeccably clean, with a comfortable and inviting atmosphere that made the experience even more enjoyable. You can tell the team takes pride in every aspect of what they do, from the food to the service and overall ambiance. I can’t recommend this place enough. Whether you’re a fan of Pakistani cuisine or trying it for the first time, this is a must-visit spot that will leave you eager to return. Absolutely brilliant!

We had an amazing dining experience at Butt Karahi. The food was absolutely delicious! We ordered the Lamb Karahi Butt Special and the Chicken Karahi, and both dishes were packed with flavor and cooked to perfection. The spices were balanced beautifully, and the portions were generous. The Lemon Soda was authentic and refreshing, a perfect accompaniment to the rich and hearty karahi. A special shoutout to Umar and Shafqat, whose attentive service made our visit even more enjoyable. They were friendly, accommodating, and ensured everything was perfect for us. Highly recommended for anyone craving top-notch desi cuisine with excellent service!

Amazing Experience at Butt Karahi Bradford! Today I visited Butt Karahi in Bradford and ordered the Desi Chicken Karahi along with a Mint Soda. The moment I took the first bite, it felt like I was back in Pakistan — full of authentic flavor and spice! This is the first time in the UK that I’ve truly enjoyed a karahi that reminded me of home. The restaurant was very clean, the staff were polite, and the naan was fresh and hot — just perfect. The mint soda was refreshing and complemented the meal really well. I highly recommend everyone to try Butt Karahi. If you’re craving real Pakistani taste, this is the place to go!

Absolutely loved the food — everything was fresh, tasty, and full of flavour. But what really made the experience stand out were the waitresses! Super friendly, attentive, and genuinely made us feel welcome. They were always checking in without being overbearing and had such lovely attitudes. It’s rare to find service this good. Will definitely be coming back!

I went to Butt Karahi recently and honestly, the food was amazing. The chicken karahi was full of flavour, cooked perfectly, and came out sizzling hot. You could really tell it was fresh. The place was clean and had a nice vibe, and the staff were friendly and quick with service. I didn’t have to wait long for my food, and the portions were proper filling. It’s definitely worth the price. I’d 100% recommend it if you’re craving good, proper Pakistani food. I’m definitely going again soon!
