Food van back with seafood to street food

VAN THAT WAS LOCKDOWN HIT IS BACK ONCE AGAIN

- WILLIAM TELFORD

A FOOD business on wheels which proved a huge hit during lockdown has returned to Plymouth with a much wider menu.

Spriggy's Street Food, based in a converted ice cream van, is once again serving tasty treats to walkers around Radford Lake.

The business was launched during the Covid pandemic as Spriggy's Seafood, while owner Peter "Spriggy" Sprigg was furloughed from his printing industry job.

But when he had to return to work full time he put the van, and his culinary skills, in mothballs.

Now, with Mr Sprigg just months from retirement, he has revved up the van again and has expanded his offering from seafood to street food.
