This one has always bemused me. Brought up in the Broch, it has always been the chip shop, I've never used either chipper or chippie. Heard more folk say chippie but the question always was  " anyone want anything from the chip shop"

Broch is alot posher than I remember

We don't need a poll. It's chipper and you order a chipper supper.

Deviants who use any other terminology should have their right to support the club revoked.

There has to be special dispensation for fans who have never ever lived north of Edinburgh and most definitely have never been to a chipper in their life

I had a portion of Chips with curry sauce today at lunchtime. First time i've been in a weegie chipper for long enough. It cost me a fiver. What's that all about? A fiver. Think it was about 3 quid last time I went.

Premiership survival - Can we get safe? Take that any day of the week over relegation. That simply does not bear thinking about.

A chipper supper is £12.50 these days.

It is definitely a chipper. The reason is that you get your meat from a butcher, fish from a fishmonger, groceries from a grocer, so it stands to reason that you get chips from a chipper.

There you go. Case closed.

There’s a flaw in that logic but I’d need to get all Bernard Manning about Chinese restaurants and where you get your magazines and rolls in the morning

A chipper supper eaten off a plate.

That is VERY posh.

My brother is very partial to brown sauce on a chipper supper.

In my own opinion, sauce on chips is wrong, but each to their own on that score.

It's a chipper!! ... itherwise oor we announce a team selection somethin' like a goalkeepie, 3 defendies, 2 back wingies, 3 midfieldies, an' two strikies. If that happens, dinna be surprised if mony a playie chaps on the door o' the managie demandin tae be put on the transfie list and ends up playin' for the Rangies.

... an' dinna get ma started aboot Willie Millie bein' a sweepie .... guy nivver swept a lum in eez life ... wis def a chipper tho ... nae an affa good ane, but hey, ye canna be good at aathin'

A Chippy is a Joiner or Carpenter.

Clearly this is opinion but it is backed by the high level evidence.

Yeah but a chipper is something you stick tree cuttings into to make woodchip or an upbeat state of mind.
