Gravey in Chippers

This was something that i came across in the UK or if i go up north. Gravy chips is really popular. I tried it and i have to say, i loved it. I said it in my local chipper as a tip and they looked at me as if i had 2 heads.

The only place i know that actually does gravy is KFC, but i hate their chicken. Why is it, it has not picked up in Ireland ??

I went to university in Manchester and, as a student, pie, chips, mushy peas and gravy was one of my staples

Beshoff does gravey as does my local.

Hillbillys does the nicest gravy! it never really took off in chippers however! More of a curry culture in Ireland

I have not seen it in italian chippers in dublin that I can recall. I have heard of it outside of dublin though.

+1, I would have beef gravy too. I love gravy on roast potatoes and italian chipper chips are fairly similar to them. I have got some strange looks but when you say the similarity to roasties they usaully come around. Just like getting strange looks eating pizza in the morning, until you compare it to toast, tomatoes, ketchup & sausages.

You can use the google site: command search to find stuff like this on just eat which has menus of takeaways all around the country. I do see several dublin chippers with it.

The first one in that search 'Tennesse Fried Chicken' in Crumlin is where I used to get Chicken with a fantastic gravy. Consistantly good was a problem there and with other chippers though. Sometimes you'd get half-oil other times a type of thick mushroom soup :eek:


I occasinally experiment at home making my own by boiling chicken and useing that water as a base for a gravy. Currently I'm useing flour, veg oil, glarlic clove and a heavy dose of soy sauce.
