NEWTOWN, PA — New details have been announced about Bomba Taco + Bar's second Pennsylvania location, opening right here in Newtown in February.

The scratch-made cocktail and taco spot takes inspiration, in both food and hospitality, from global flavors and cultures. The name "bomba" comes from the Puerto Rican music and dance genre, promising a vibrant atmosphere and a good time.

“We hope for Bomba to become a getaway for the community when we open our doors in February,” said Bomba founder Andy Himmel. “We think Newtown will love our global flavors and welcoming environment that’s perfect for a night out with friends or a quick bite to eat during the week with your family.”

Bomba's menu includes a wide variety of unique taco options in its search for "the perfect taco," such as the Lucha Libre starring chorizo and goat cheese to the Korean Surf ‘n’ Turf with Bulgogi beef, dragon shrimp and kale kimchi. Other menu favorites are craft-your-own guacamole, snacks like Yucca Fries and Brazilian Cheesy Bread, and rice and cauliflower rice bowls along with shareable sides for the table including chile-lime cucumbers and plantains.

Vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free options also are plentiful for diners with dietary restrictions and independent nutritional needs, as well as health-conscious options including bibb lettuce wraps and cauliflower rice.

Bomba also offers a kid’s menu with fresh, healthy options including a Build-Your-Own Taco Kit for diners with children.

The restaurant’s beverage program is built around scratch-made tequila, bourbon and rum cocktails elevated by the freshest ingredients and unique flavor combinations. Signature cocktails like the Brazilian Mule, Bomba Rum Punch, and Lion’s Tail feature house-made purees and quality spirits and liquors.

Customers can also experience the numerous scratch-made flavors with Bomba’s Margarita Trio which allows customers to experience three house made flavors in a margarita flight.

A selection of craft beers and house wines rounds out the drink menu.

Bomba is coming soon to the Village at Newtown, with the shop opening its doors February at 2930 South Eagle Rd.
