    Debarras in Blarnry is very nice. Daniels in Kanturk is awful and they always get the order wrong because no of them speak proper english. The new take away on Church street is very nice. Its called Jimmy dees.

    Dante Pizza(the kentucky) in Mallow is very nice too.

    FYI dont ever stop in Millstreet all the takeaways there are horrible.

    Never had a problem with orders in Daniels and no problem with the food. Jimmy Dees seems to be just another tasteless frozen chips chipper from the two occasions I've eaten there

    Bring back Mattie Kiely, spotted him last week eating in the Luyan in Douglas , brought back memories as a young lad having the banter with Matty over greasy chips and burgers :)

    O Connels take away in Coachford is bloody fine. Chips are gprgeous and the fresh fish is savage

    in my mind it would have to be lennox's in barracks street. huge portions and lovely chips and everything else

    Yeah it's still there, it's called Ceohanes or Cahanes. Very nice. No fancy stuff, just chips, chicken, fish and sausages and potatoe pies.

    My favourite has to be Denny's near the Supervalue in Glanmire.
    Lovely chips.

    I tried Jimmy dees a few months ago and will go to no other chipper now. The food is fantastic, it's an original traditional Irish chipper with the best real freshly cut chips and superb food. The place is spotlessly clean and with the tables and seating they have it's a perfect place to bring my kids they love it, my daughter is 10 in July and that's where she is having her party. Fair play to Jimmy Dees they have really raised the bar for chippers and given the people of Kanturk a proper service we deserve at last. :)

    Must have changed so. I was there twice and both times was frozen chips. I'm not a big chip eater but when I do it must be fresh cut and that put me off. Must try again sometime see the change.

    That is pretty much in line with my experiences and with what I've heard from others.

    Dinos in Douglas are always nice. Their food is always hot unlike other chippers that I have gone to. They also give up plenty so no worries of being left hungry!

    It was lovley at the start. I suppose its like everything else good at the start and then it goes down hill. I cannot see them lasting as their is way too many chippers in Kanturk.

    What about Chicken Lover????:D:D You would want to be a braave man to sample that if it ever reopens..

    how has noone included the wimpy in fermoy? thats what they all rave about in that town. saying that Enzos is even better, after opening another shop down by centra, not sure if the one at the top of town has closed or not. mighty friday evening grub!

    I stopped there once before. I thought it was revolting. The chips were soggy and the SFC was revolting.

    went to the new enzos last sunday got a lunch box, a kango would have been handy the chicken was tough as old boots, the original enzos is now called sharons, the woman that took it over owns abrakebabra in wilton, my friend tried it and said the food was brutal

    There used to be a mobile chipper in Kilbrin near Kanturk a few years ago excellent food cleanest mobile chipper I've ever seen. I think it was called Danny's takeaway. I have not seen it in a while any body know where they are gone?

    I ate there once just after it opened first, chicken was good, chips dire. Couldn't imagine trying it again after closing and reopening though...
