Real Ale Ray left this review about The Brew Factory

A modern and trendy bar, with friendly and enthusiastic staff. There were 8 ales on handpump on our visit, three from their in-house Bradford Brewery and five guest. I initially tried their Northern Soul and found it to have a smokey BBQ taste, so then tried their Odsal Top Brown Ale and found this also had that strange overpowering after taste.
So I decided to stick to the guest beers, which were Fuzzy Duck Pheasant Plucker and one from Imperial Brewery.
There was also a comprehensive selection of bottled and canned craft beers and lagers.
They also had a small selection of their artisan pies made in-house, on view in the main room and the brewery was also visible.

Converted from industrial premises this is now the home of Bradford brewery. The pub was designed first and the brewery has been fitted around it. If you are lucky enough to get a trip round the brewery, you'll find it to be an unusual L shape to fit into the available space. The downstairs area is all stripped back bricks with quite a modern feel. The food is all based around the excellent Pieminister pies. There's a beer yard at the rear which was a real suntrap on our visit. There's also a small area upstairs. 8 handpumps on the bar including 4 from Bradford and 4 guest ales. We'd promised to call in when Anthony & John did a meet the brewer for us at The Baum. So when we arrived it was a pleasant surprise to be bought the first round on the house whilst talking to John. After a quick look around the brewery we bought another round and went and sat in the beer garden whilst John went off delivering. We met up again soon afterwards in the City Gent as he was delivering there. Both the pints I had were in excellent nick and the barmaid was very chatty. It was rather quiet on a Thursday lunchtime. Next time I visit I'll try it later in the evening.

Old Boots left this review about The Brew Factory

A new bar with stripped brickwork, laminate floor, chipboard woodwork, steel tubular chairs and tables and industrial lighting. There's a white tiled food servery, the food appears to be served on chopping boards and seems to be a lot of pies. Eight pulls of mainly micro brewery beers, none from the Bradford Brewery on this visit and eight keg taps of mainly mainstream beers but no mass market lagers. The beer quality was fairly good. There's a side room and what might become a patio out back that's currently used as a cask store. Upstairs toilets. Not sure what the actual name is but the signage all says Bradford Brewery.
