Dublin doughnut shop Aungier Danger is closing down

After five years serving up doughnuts in Dublin, Aungier Danger has announced they are 'hanging up the apron'.

The store originally opened in 2015 and at one point had five branches across the capital.

Aungier Danger took to social media last night to announce the news, saying it had been emotional.

"Donut lovers, we hate to be the bearer of bad tiding. But we're officially hanging up the apron."
