A Harrogate street food business said it is "heartbroken" after being forced to move less than a week after its launch.
The Spud Van opened on Hornbeam Park on Monday (8th September) and saw hungry customers lining the street for meals including jacket potatoes, sandwiches and drinks.
However, despite having received permission to trade there when it first opened, the van has been asked to move.
Owner Nicola called the development "a real blow" after serving so many customers its first few days.
A video posted on Your Harrogate's social media channels has also gathered over 40,000 views.
In a statement on social media, Nicola said:
“We’re so sad to share that we’ve been asked to move on from our current spot, even though we had permission to be here when we started.
“It’s a real blow after such an amazing start – but more than anything, we just want to say the biggest thank you to every single one of you who’s supported us so far.”
The van is now on the lookout for a new location.
They added:
“If you know of anywhere in or around Harrogate that might welcome us, we’d be so grateful if you could point us in the right direction.”
The owners added that they remain committed to continuing the business, calling the setback “just a bump in the road.”
The Spud Van team say they hope to find a new site soon and return to serving customers in the Harrogate area.
