It's a chip shop, what else was anyone expecting? Garlic bread?
A more efficient and proper menu board.
Why are they listing every combination of chips instead of simply putting the gravy, cheese etc under a toppings sub section under chips with the price for each topping instead?
It doesn't add up properly for that.
If chips are £2.20 and cheesy chips are £3, then cheese is 80p. Then if chips, cheese and gravy/curry is £3.50, then gravy or curry is 50p... except if you just get chips and gravy, it's £2.50, so actually gravy/curry is only 30p, unless you combine it with cheese, in which case it's more expensive.
Perhaps the main reason is that they can stop someone asking for chips, gravy and curry sauce, which is a crime.
Or the quantities of toppings vary?
There are many chippies most with efficient menu board design, they just won't be worthy of doing the rounds on the Internet.
It's probably influenced by Chinese chippie designs where each dish is assigned a number for ease of ordering.
Maybe not garlic bread, but they must have some bread options.
I want a chips & cheese butty*

Garlic chips at least.
