A cornerstone chippy which has served generations of Ayrshire families closed its doors for the final time yesterday.
The Wellington Restaurant, on Ayr’s Sandgate, fried their last fish supper on Sunday after 54 years in business.
The family-run business, owned by the Iannotti family since 1968, has been a pillar eatery in the town for over five decades, serving up fried delights to not only Ayrshire families, school kids and office workers enjoying a ‘Fish Friday’, but hungry holiday-makers who queued out the door in the summer months awaiting their fish suppers.
