Greek owners farewell their famous Adelaide takeaway shop after 30 years

·

After 30 years, brothers Jim and Luke Dimitriou and their brother-in-law Zac Partlou are saying goodbye to their famous chicken shop Stirling Chickens, The Advertiser has reported.

The outgoing owners of the takeaway shop in Adelaide Hills, South Australia ” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>said in the post.

“On the other hand, sad to be saying goodbye to such a wonderful community and staff that has supported our business for so long.”

The chicken shop owners are known around the Adelaide Hills for their quirky sense of humour, writing misspelt words on a blackboard menu as a marketing tactic. The food, of course, is also a favourite among the locals.

In the Facebook post, Jim, Luke and Zac thanked these locals for their “amazing support” over the past 30 years.

“As we enter our new chapter and pass the torch on to the next generation, we want to express our sincerest gratitude to all of you. It has been an honour to serve this community for 30 years and be a part of your lives,” the post reads.

Whilst the trio are ending their reign at Stirling Chickens, they have handed ownership over to new management – a husband and wife team.
