Blue Lagoon to take over famous Ayr fish and chips takeaway

Big plans have been announced to see a recently closed fish and chip restaurant in Ayr reopen next year and continue as a beloved chippy.

The Blue Lagoon have confirmed they are taking over Ayr’s iconic Wellington Restaurant, with the family behind the takeaway announcing last week that it was closing its doors after 54 years in the town.

Owned by the Iannotti family since 1968, The Wellington, on Ayr’s Sandgate, served up fried delights to not only Ayrshire families, school kids and office workers enjoying a ‘Fish Friday’, but hungry holiday-makers who travelled from Glasgow, Lanarkshire and even Ireland to enjoy their fish suppers.
