A MOTHER and son have been unveiled as the new owners of a popular café on the outskirts of Taunton.

Jack and Rachel Roberts are now installed at Silvers Pantry, at Prockters Farm, in Blundells Lane, West Monkton.

They have taken over from Myles and Sophie Anderson, who had run the business for five years.

In a social media post, Myles and Sophie said: "Firstly a massive thanks to all our loyal customers, staff and friends for supporting Silvers over the past 5 years.

"We are also very excited to introduce the new owners of Silvers, local mother and son duo Jack and Rachel Roberts, who we know will continue to keep Silvers as your special place to visit to enjoy great food and service.
