Unique jacket potato takeaway proving popular in Knaresborough

Wednesday, 5 February 2025 21:19

Str8 Jackets opened on Knaresborough's High Street in December.

A unique jacket potato takeaway is celebrating a successful launch in Knaresborough.

Str8 Jackets launched on High Street on 7th December, providing jacket potatoes complete with a range of toppings.

And the new business is already becoming a town favourite.

Owner Emma Wilson told Your Harrogate:

“It’s a wonderful community and all the other businesses have been so supportive.

“Our most popular topping has been the warm pulled pork and honey, although the honey chilli chicken is a close second.”

Str8 Jackets is also planning to open a new salad bar in Spring.

When asked what she thinks has made the takeaway a popular lunch hotspot, Emma said:

“We believe our business to be unique in that we serve a healthy alternative, but also the ultimate comfort food that I can absolutely guarantee will keep you full all day!"

Other toppings include coleslaw, cheese, chilli, beans, tuna mayo and coronation chicken.

Str8 Jackets is open from 11am-4pm from Monday to Friday, and 12pm until 4pm on Saturday. It’s closed on Sundays.
