Located in Bristol’s vibrant St Jude’s area, Chido Wey is a bold and energetic Cali-Mexican kitchen and cocktail bar that’s shaking up the city’s food scene.
Inspired by the street food of Mexico City and the Mission District of San Francisco, this colourful spot is all about big flavours, playful vibes, and a serious love for burritos. Inside, the décor is bright and eclectic, with communal tables and a buzzing open kitchen. Chido Wey is open Monday to Saturday, and walk-ins are welcome, though reservations are recommended for evening visits. It’s also expanding soon with a sister venue, Tocayo, offering brunch and coffee next door.
The menu is packed with punchy, satisfying dishes — from the ‘mother choriza’ burrito with smoked adobo chicken and chorizo mayo, to the vegan-friendly ‘señor bean’ loaded with black beans, chipotle, and fried onions. Other favourites include the deep-fried chimichanga, nachos grande, and the ‘carne-val’ tacos with conchinita pibil and jalapeño salsa. There’s plenty for vegetarians and vegans, and portion sizes are famously generous — one burrito reportedly weighs over a kilo! And with regular specials, fun merch, and a loyal local following, Chido Wey isn’t just a place to eat, it’s a real community vibe.
Drinks are just as exciting, with a curated list of cocktails featuring mezcal, tequila, and Latin American flavours, alongside refreshing options like Ting, ginger beer, and Mexican sodas. The atmosphere is casual, fun, and full of personality — perfect for a laid-back meal with friends or a lively night out.
Whether you’re a burrito fanatic or just curious to try something new, Chido Wey delivers a fresh, flavour-packed experience that’s full of heart and unmistakably Bristol.
