A burger bar in Taunton has reopened its doors with a different name and team.
Biddy's Burger Bar, on Taunton's Station Road, reopened on Tuesday (September 16) under the new name 'Biddy's By Soph' - along with a fresh lick of pink paint and a new menu.
The historic burger bar was a mainstay on Station Road for nearly 40 years under owners Daryl and Sara Sprague, with the business offering customers classic English breakfast items and more at relatively low prices.
This included a 'Mega Breakfast', which included two sausages, two slices of toast, beans, bacon, fried mushrooms, a fried egg, tomatoes, black pudding, chips, and a refill cup of tea or coffee - all for £7.95.

Biddy's By Soph is owned and run by Sophie Louise Gee, a baker who also runs another business based in Taunton called 'Sophisticatered', which specialises in Creative Catering & Event Design across Somerset.
Sophie was joined by a further four members of staff on opening day, including two waitresses and one chef. The latter of which can be seen cooking whilst you wait for your food, just like how Biddy's Burger Bar always was.

Little has changed in the business in terms of the atmosphere and decor, with the outdoor sign still reading as it did before, and the interior still has an American Diner look.
Biddy's is now dog-friendly, and customers can expect menu items such as a hot English Breakfast, waffles, pancakes, burgers, cakes, and more.
Biddy's By Soph also provides customers with similar menu items as before. This includes the new 'Small/Mini Breakfast', which costs £5.50 and the 'Mega Breakfast', which costs £12.00.
On Monday (September 15), the new business had a pre-opening event, where food and drink items were sampled by Sophie's family and friends ahead of launch.
Speaking via social media, Sophie said: "What an amazing pre-opening evening surrounded by my wonderful family and friends.
"So grateful for all the help, support and love so far."
Biddy's By Soph customers can also purchase from the childrens' menu, which includes '1 main, 2 sides, and a drink carton' for £5.00. You can pay an extra £1.50 on top of this for a 'sweet treat'.
