Hullabaloo, a vibrant bar located at 41 Westgate, Shipley, offers a unique and inviting atmosphere that captivates both locals and visitors alike. Its Sunday Specials featuring Caribbean cuisine, such as the Curried Goat and pumpkin rice, alongside delightful side dishes like Fried Plantain and Jerk Halloumi, have enchanted diners. Reviewers rave about the exceptional service; one guest, Tom Atkin, praised the staff for going above and beyond—personally fetching more wine to ensure a memorable experience. Patrons like Joe Moriarty and Matty (Naomi St Kent) highlight the bar's relaxed environment and diverse clientele, creating a wonderful space for enjoying good food and craft beers without feeling rushed. The welcoming vibe extends to private events too, as noted by Sue Easterbrook, who celebrated a milestone birthday with impeccable service and delicious food. Rowan Cunningham's endorsement of the goat curry as "to die for" encapsulates the culinary spirit here, while the venue's acoustics make it a hotspot for live music. With reasonable prices, a friendly atmosphere, and a community-driven ethos, Hullabaloo proves to be more than just a bar; it’s a beloved gathering place that leaves a lasting impression on food lovers and music enthusiasts alike.

Absolutely phenomenal service atmosphere and food incredible from the staff! Ran out of wine and went to the shop for more just to serve us! Can't say thank you enough! Unbeleiveable from start to finish! If we could rate 10* we would keep up the awesome effort guys you're absolutely smashing the customer service and would put most if not all big brand pubs to shame. 10/10 cannot recommend enough. Best pub ive been to for years

Had a cracking chilled out Sunday afternoon here. Nice staff, good food, and good beers.

Absolutely brilliant bar - not quite a micropub, not quite a pub ... loved my mini visit on the evening of Weds 28 Feb 2024. What a diverse vibrant collection of customers (myself included ). Nice choice of real ale, 3 pumps on, and about 5 craft kegs very reasonable prices. Nice to chat to two of the community shareholders at the bar, Graham and Mike (sorry if spelling not correct). Get behind this place

We booked the back room for a 30th birthday party. The venue was perfect, the staff went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed and the food was spot on.

Amazing food - the goat curry is to die for, really friendly atmosphere, bar staff very welcoming. Lovely venue for a gig. Daughters band has played here on numerous occasions. Sound engineer Ed is amazing and so helpful with lots of advice for a teen band. If you are a band get a gig there. If you want good food/beer go! You won't regret.

Amazing real ale bar with a large selection of local beers - great atmosphere with fun friendly staff. The street food is outstanding - we shared the Traditional Slow Cooked Goat Curry and Chinese Salt & Pepper Chicken Giant Yorkshire Puddings Wrap - both are highly recommended.

Great little pub with fantastic friendly staff. Always a warm welcome, great selection of different ales on cask and keg. Fantastic food made by their new chef! The goat curry is to die for and the chef even did me a old special "the trifector burger" which was almost too big to eat. But we managed Would highly recommend!!
