A West Lothian couple have decided to call it time on their family run chippy.
Aldo’s takeaway, which is run by husband and wife, Aldo and Anna, has spent three decades serving the community of East Calder.
The couple have decided to retire and thanked their customers and staff, past and present, for their support over the past 30 years.
In a statement shared with Edinburgh Live by their son, Roberto, they said: “After 30 years, we have at long last decided to hang up our aprons and retire from the chippy. We will be closing our shop on Saturday, 22nd February 2025.
“We are deeply touched by the kind messages that we’ve received from everyone. We will never forget the friends and memories we’ve made here, and we will miss all the familiar faces.
“A huge thank you to our customers, staff and drivers, past and present. We are incredibly grateful for the support you have shown us over the years. It has been a pleasure to serve the community.
“With thanks, Aldo & Anna.”
The couple were met with hundreds of well wishes from their customers from over the years in a post in their local Mid and East Calder Facebook group.
