Roots is still alive! I feel although I’ve been in hibernation this winter🦔 . Is spring on its way 🌼?

If you have a WEDDING 💒 or EVENT which you’d like ROOTS TO CATER, please get in contact.

The couple who came for a wedding taster yesterday were delighted and are very much looking forward to enjoying a full Mezze spread at their wedding this summer.

Hi all,
I’ve been quiet on social for a while now as the exchange and move out has eventually happened at 49 Boutport St.
Many of you will have heard of the difficulties I had with potential buyers backing out at the eleventh hour. I’m pleased to say that a lovely local lady has now taken over the premises and is working hard to open as soon as possible.
Before too long, you’ll be able to get your perfect takeaway roast, come rain or shine, from Roast Barnstaple at 49 Boutport Street.
Please do continue to support local businesses, especially Ellie and her team.

We have some exciting news! We’ve taken over 49 Boutport street and are working hard to get it ready to open. Unfortunately this means we won’t be open for a little while. We’ll have an opening date for you ASAP. ☺️

Back open tomorrow

😕 Last day of business at 49 Boutport Street: Wednesday May 14th

This may feel a little like ground hog day due to my previous ‘last day’ announcement. I won’t lie, it’s been a tough rollercoaster with not one, but two buyers falling through. However, my lease is now up and so although I’ve not found a new buyer (yet), my last day of business will be Wednesday May 14th.

🙏 Please do come and say goodbye and get your last Roots fix before we close.

As mentioned, I will be continuing catering as a private chef for any events you may have, retreats and weddings. The email address will remain the same: [email protected]

Thank you for your valued support 💚
