**The details:** Signs for the new Boss Chicken establishment went up two weeks ago at the site next to Tesco Express.

The previous eatery, which also sold kebabs and fried chicken alongside its fish and chips offerings, had garnered positive feedback for its "exceptional service" and "delicious food" before closing.

**For context:** Neptune's had previously experienced temporary closures due to fires under the most recent ownership.

**The bottom line:** Work is now underway to transform the former chippy into Ipswich's newest chicken restaurant. It is not known when the business will re-open its doors.
