A new venue serving up tacos, drinks and other Mexican street food, as well as records, is set to open in Bristol next month. Alta Loma will be ‘coming soon’ to number 18 Upper Maudlin Street in the city centre, near the BRI.

In a post to its Instagram page, Alta Loma says: “Who’s ready for tacos and vinyl?! Tacos, tortas, drinks and other Mexican street food upstairs with a record shop in the basement.

“This will be your place to pickup @stolenbodyrecords vinyl and merch as well as lots more amazing vinyl. It’ll also be a hangout point for all things @astralradiobristol / @astral_festival.”

The team have now confirmed via the official website that the venue is ‘coming March 2025’ and while there is no specific official opening date as of yet, more social media posts show the interior of the record shop and the transformation of the restaurant space.

It comes after Alta Loma originally aimed to open by the end of summer 2024. The space will be shared, with Alta Loma in the restaurant above, and the record shop, Coffin Wax, in the basement selling music and merch from Bristol independent record label Stolen Body Records.
