Dalkey chipper announces sad closure after 40 years in business

A popular chipper in Dalkey has announced the sad news of its closure after 40 years in business.

P. Borza is an Italian fish and chips located on 16 Castle Street in Dalkey, and over the past four decades they have become well known for their delicious fish and chips and pizza. However, this week the chipper has announced it will be closing its doors for good.

In a notice posted outside the chipper's window, P. Borza's owners confirmed the closure. They said: "Dear valued customers, it is with a very heavy heart that we announce that we will be closing our doors.

"Through the highs and lows, you have stood by us and we are truly grateful. We would like to take this opportunity to thank all our customers in Dalkey and the surrounding borough for your loyalty and support.

"We are proud to have been part of this wonderful community for the past 40 years and we will cherish all the relationships that we have built with our customers. Once again, thank your all for your support, friendship and patronage.

"It has been an honour and a pleasure to serve you."

Dalkey residents have been left heartbroken by the shocking announcement, with many hailing the chipper as "the best for miles." One person wrote on social media: "Sad news to hear about P. Borza in Dalkey. The best chipper around for miles, will be very much missed."

A second added: "Always lovely staff at Borza, wonderful food for 40 years. Wishing them all the best." A third added: "Great chipper that will be much missed."
