No more Seashell...

Yeah, Seashell (the chipper off Lombard St.) closed on Friday I think it was. I never got a battered mars bar from ther but I used to go there now and again for some other battered goodness.

Boo hiss

/edit: This isn't anyway related to 'shell to sea'. Go elsewhere if that's your preferred topic.

Aww no, I used to love that place and was looking forward to frequenting it again next year! Lido just feels like too far to walk

Boo-urns! I loved their deep-fried Mars bars - where will I go now when I feel the need to clog up my arteries that little bit more?

I was talking to the owner there a couple of weeks back and he said that he will try to find another place near by to re open but he's doubtful he'll find the right place.

It's a shame its gone, it was one of those last few Family run places in dublin ,I hope they don't close O'Donavans

Really? Aww, went there a fair few times when I was in Trinity. Great to get your dinner before heading onwards (often to the nearby Mahaffeys).

DURC had a farewell order that went over €100 to note the passing of Seashells.. there was battered mars, snickers, double deckers etc

I'm not too pushed myself, Lido is way better

Not a big fan of seashell, small portions of chips amongst other moans. how come he's closing? are they knocking down the whole building?

Crash

entire blocks getting redeveloped I hear.

The developer is knocking down the whole building to build apartments i believe....I'd like to hope they will be aimed at students but that is wishful thinking

the corpo

hope he got a good payout!

End of an era indeed!
