Pattie is fish potato but when you go to seaton carew chippys they do allsorts .. cheese, corned beef, savory

Some chippys give you a fish cake too if you ask for a pattie and vice versa depending where you live.

In hull/yorks you get the option of salt and vinegar and chip spice on the counter

A pattie in Hull is different to ours. It's mashed potato with a bit of sage and fish. More like a fish cake, but a Hull fish cake is like our pattie.
Confusing.
 
Redcar is the best place for fish and chips, I’ve sampled them wherever I’ve been. This of course is my opinion. I quite like curry sauce on my chips!

Thank you. I was thinking about them earlier and couldn't remember what they were called. Was doing my head in.

There's a stall that sets up every year at Hull Fair that sells them

Scraps, definitely. Mind, I used to know somebody up here who reckoned their family and friends all called them "scramptions'. Feckin' in-bred.

Regularly called scrantions up in these parts, though usually batter. I've had a few puzzled looks over the years when I forget and ask for scraps
 
My old man called them Scrapings, he was from Manchester. Wherever I've lived in North Yorkshire, West Yorkshire and now Kent it's been Scraps
 
I've got fish and chips for the lads on-site a fair few times before as part of my job and in Durham, Newcastle, Northumberland its more commonly referred to as batter.

Baffled me first time round.
 
In Sheffield and West Yorks the fish cake is what you lads call a Pattie and if you go to Oldham the bread cake is called a muffin. My student life in Sheffield was fuelled by Fish cakes and chips and lots of beer

I've come across scraps, batter and bits but can't think of anything else

I did once come across a fish cake that was a normal mashed potato and fish battered and deep fried passed off as a fish cake. that was a really interesting mould breaking moment
 
I aint never been to Canada but the concept of "Poutine" is frankly terrifying, chips covered in gravy and... and... (shudders) cheese curds :sick: 🤮

It may be delicious but it sounds like something you are more likely to see on a pavement of a Sunday morning than served up as a delicacy.
 
Years ago in the south with wife no 1 she asked for fish and chips with scraps. The server asked what scraps were and when she got the explanation said 'Oh we feed them to the pigs here'.
 
Patty and chips with scraps covered by YK chows( Oliver Street) curry sauce...... mmmn
Years since ive had them, but my taste buds still remember !

Tried it when I went to Montreal a few years back just to say I'd given it a go. Was actually very tasty. Love them all separately so why not together!
 
Scraps in East Cleveland, batter when I lived in Newcastle. Don't think they were on offer in London?

In Sheffield currently and they have "the Sheffield fishcake", which as far as I can tell is a "fishcake" elsewhere. 😂
