Phat Spuds: Batley takeaway ‘giving a little back to community’ with special a-peeling half-term deal
A Batley takeaway which specialises in jacket potatoes is “giving a little back to the community” this February half-term with some special deals for its customers.
Phat Spuds, on Commercial Street, have got 10 per cent off of every meal between 11am and 3pm Monday (February 16) to Friday (February 20) this week, whilst also offering a 10 per cent discount to NHS staff and students.


The eaterie, which opened its doors six months ago, will also be offering children’s meals for 99p throughout February half-term.
“These offers are an attempt to support families struggling with the recent cost of living crisis,” owner Zahir Akbar told the Reporter Series.
“We at Phat Spuds not only want to say ‘thank you’ to the community but we want to give a little something back. We like doing stuff for the community so we decided what to do to give back and we are in a position to really help a lot of families who are struggling.”
Zahir is the father of Dewsbury’s very own unbeaten professional boxer, Amaar ‘The Prodigy’ Akbar, as well as owning the Warrior Breed Boxing Gym.
