A popular Leeds chippy has closed down leaving its regulars devastated.
Tingley Bar Fisheries has been a go-to destination for fish and chips for decades around Morley and the surrounding area with news of its closure has left the community in shock. For many, it was considered as one of the best fish and chip shops in Leeds.
The team put an emotional post on their Facebook page, last week, to announce plans to shut.

“Thank you to one and all for your much appreciated support throughout all the years. We would like to wish you all the best from all the staff and management at Tingley bar.”
