I should add that the doorway in which the GSG was written is now part of a very good chippy.

So just short for a fish and chips shop? I just googled.

Indeed. Fish and chip (singular) shop if you want to sound like a local.

I think 'chippy' is probably of northern origin, and as I say, 'chipper' is Irish (& Aussie?). I may be wrong, but I think the London term when I was growing up was 'chip shop'.

Its a tad confusing to this yank because what you call chips, we call fries. And chips to us are potato chips. The thin crunchy things you buy in a bag.

Thanks. Whats the american equivalent? French fries?

Fat (thumb thick) French fries.

It's a temple dedicated to the God of fried potatoes.

You can also get fried fish, mushy peas, Wallies, saveloys, sausages in batter, pies... I'm feeling a bit peckish.

The Irish call them 'Chippers'.

I hate Mac fries far too much salt on them. At least in a chippy, it is up to you whether you want salt or not.
