Welsh Back kiosk’s colourful new lease of life
It enjoys one of the most picturesque locations in Bristol and could become a new favourite when it reopens under new owners this summer.
The kiosk on Welsh Back has been taken on by Victoria Holden and Rory McKenna, who will be offering a plant-focused menu with plans for a number of special events in the future.
The pair have already given the small building, which will be known as Kiosk, a colourful makeover prior to their arrival which they are hoping to coincide with the Pride Festival weekend of July 14 and 15.
is needed now More than ever
Victoria is part of the organising team behind Alfresco Disco and has run a few pop-ups in the past.
On offer at Kiosk – set to open initially from Wednesday to Saturday, including until 11pm on Friday and Saturday nights – will be the likes of loaded chips, cashew macaroni cheese, power juices and smoothies.
Victoria is keen not to promote Kiosk as vegan – but is passionate about her plant-based menu.
“I really believe in doing something positive for that cause,” she told Bristol24/7. “But I don’t want to preach to people about what they should or should not eat.”
“I want to let people know that plant-based food can be delicious and I can’t wait to help create a really fun space where people can just hang out.”
