Chips beans & cheese

[Newschapter]

What goes on first, beans or cheese?

The peas or the gravy?

I remember years ago when I worked in a chip shop I tried to put gravy in the bottom of the tray before I put the chips in, then more gravy on top, as I hated getting to the bottom of the gravy chip and running out of gravy....but my boss stopped me!!

We're having a chippy tonight and I fancy chips beans & cheese but I'm wondering if beans or cheese on the chips first.....

Ps: we may have been in the pub an hour and had a spritzer or two so excuse any spelling mistakes...

Chips and gravy is lovely. Chip cob not chip butty

Chip barm. Fighting talk

Barbara I've never been but it sounds like a good excuse - thank you!!

Weird how different some things are so close. I'm curious and horrified about the idea of battered chips

Depends what you're eating the chips on. If bread, chip butty, if barmcake, chip barm. Mmmmmm chip butty. Warby's white toastie with lurpak.

Gravy doesn’t belong on chips

My maiden aunt! Gravy and chips is delicious 😋

Chips, beans, cheese and chips, peas, gravy surely?

I hate soggy chips so would be beans and cheese on the side of some lovely extra crispy chips here, or gravy to dip them in. Never put anything on my chips except too much salt!

Gravy never goes with chips.

HERETIC!! SEIZE THE UNBELIEVER!!!

I take it you're not from the north west of England then ?

No one is having fish are they 😆

Never tried chips and gravy or seen it in the chip shop. I honestly don’t think I could eat it, but then I’m Scottish and can easily eat a battered fried pizza 😂

Oh for fucks sake. I really want to lose weight but I think I want cheesy chips, curry and chips and chips and gravy more.

So I got chips, cheese & beans on top - with a side of chicken goujons

Dd got chips and gravy and DS got curry chip..

Erm. .... can someone who isn't currently wolfing down their chips please confirm what the gravy is like? I don't ever add gravy to meals as I don't like it. I do like a proper sauce (not ketchup) but gravy is too wet. So are you talking Bisto or a thicker gravy type sauce?

Thick, dark, chippy gravy, full of salt and vinegar - lush !

Chip shop gravy is so superior to bisto gravy. It’s is thick and gloopy and delish. Especially with vinegar in it.

Where are you lot going that you can get beans and cheese in a chippy , I am from the northwest and it chips with curry ,gravy or mushy peas . ( always curry for me ) >>> sulks

East Midlands here and chips and cheese is a pretty common menu option. As is chips and gravy (gravy mix). And it’s a chip cob

Chips, cheese and gravy here.

I've never seen cheese or beans as an option in a chip shop (SE, West Midlands or Scotland). I can't think of a worse thing to do with chips if I'm honest, salt and vinegar is all they need.

So are you talking Bisto or a thicker gravy type sauce?

My bisto gravy is a thick sauce. Practically its own life form.

Anybody who is near Harpenden and doesn't believe in chips and gravy I suggest you go to the chipper on the high street to try theirs. I am drooling just thinking about their gravy. :o

Don't go today though, they're shut on Sunday...

It's not even midday and I already want chips and gravy on a muffin with lashings of vinegar after reading this thread 😩

I've never had chip shop gravy, I always imagine it would be thick and I can't bear thick gravy, too many horrific school dinner memories.

Yes, it is thick but it's also meaty and tangy and delicious!!
