So similar to a Scottish slice, but round? 'Veggie roll' my arse.

If it's just beef and a bit of spring onion though, isn't it just a beefburger?

AnneShirleysNewDress · 23/02/2023 23:43

Pizza crunch and chips with salt and sauce. It's bloody lovely.

I was gobsmacked to work at the Irn Bru factory in Mansfield, Nottinghamshire, England. I felt like I'd been lied to all my life.

'Made near Nottingham, from Chemicals' just doesn't sound the same.

starfishmummy · 23/02/2023 23:53

Chicken and mushroom pie please. Unless you are in the Northern town where I used to be able to get little steamed suet beef puddings. (Yum). I'll share a chips with someone. And if there's a potato scallop....

Of course if the fish is wonderful at your local I'll have that, but since our local chippy changed hands the fish is dreadful.

BarrelOfOtters · 24/02/2023 06:54

I live right by the sea….and often the fish is woeful. You have to pick your chippy.

Deathraystare · 24/02/2023 07:43

Well you did not bring my order over to me (what's the matter, was West London too far out of your way?) but luckily I had already had a cheese and coleslaw baguette at work and was not hungry when I got home!

Hmm not sure a cheese and coleslaw baguette is compensation for a chippy!

Fish and chips - haddock.

Every single chippy within several miles of me. Even the one with a tiny menu does it - fish, chips, pies, sausages, mushy peas, gravy, curry and rice.

bcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyza · 24/02/2023 09:01

My chippy does kebab suppers, mac and cheese suppers, baked potatoes, omelettes

Mind blown. Where about are you?
I got excited when I went up North (England) and they had cheese ☺️🤣🤣🤣

MaidOfSteel · 24/02/2023 09:43

A big bag of scraps, please! I'll leave the rest. I'm going to douse them in salt & vinegar. Yummy!

When I moved to Scotland and made my first chippy visit, I asked for scraps and they didn't even know what they are!😫Luckily, we found another that makes them for us.

Whatthediddlyfeck · 24/02/2023 09:45

Mealie pudding supper with a picked onion on the side please. Plenty of vinegar on the mealie pudding please!

MeinKraft · 24/02/2023 09:47

Cheeseburger with fried onions and a gravy chip with peas (got to get those vitamins in) and onions please.

Liverpool! Chippies here tend to have massive menus.

TheBirdintheCave · 24/02/2023 15:21

@Alltheprettyseahorses I had no idea that this is seemingly such a northern thing 😂

Also called a pizza crunch, only in Scotland 😁

I'm in Scotland too and I've honestly only ever seen it called a deep fried pizza. I found out tonight our local one does a whole one as well as the half one I usually get. It's cheaper than ordering a normal pizza from them though. Grin

Wonder if it’s certain areas - I’m also Scotland and it’s Pizza Crunch 🤣.

also would sometimes get smoked sausage supper and a single black pudding in batter which is delicious . Am desp for all this now 🤤

VerveClique · 24/02/2023 15:55

Crispy chilli chicken, half rice/half chips, portion of veggie spring rolls.

From the chippy?

Cosycover · 24/02/2023 15:58

Half pizza crunch with loads of salt and vinegar.
Chips and curry sauce.
A few fritters.

Snowpaw · 24/02/2023 16:02

Cod, chips and gravy over the lot. Two lots of vinegar (one in the shop, one at home) and salt.

Jerrythejam · 24/02/2023 17:32

@Tarkan where I am, a pizza crunch is a battered, then deep fried pizza. As opposed to the normal deep fried pizza without batter. I’ve got one on the way just now!
