Celebrating success at Barnstaple Pannier Market
Every great business starts somewhere, and we’re incredibly proud to have been part of this one!
A Spud Shack, specialising in locally grown baked potatoes, delicious homemade fillings, and a great selection of drinks, started out at Barnstaple Pannier Market with their brilliant idea. Over their time with us, they quickly became a customer favourite. With determination, creativity, and the support of the market community, the business has continued to grow – and they’re now taking the exciting step of moving into their own shop on Butchers Row.
This is exactly what the Pannier Market is about: supporting independent traders, nurturing new ideas, and providing a strong platform for businesses to develop and expand.
Although they’re moving on, their journey will always be part of our story. We encourage customers to continue supporting A Spud Shack in their new location - and don’t forget, you can still grab your spuds and enjoy them using the seating here in the market.
We’re incredibly proud of how far they’ve come and wish them every success in this next chapter.
