What do you mainly have on your chips?

Gravy.
Sometimes mushy peas.
mmmmmm (y)

Gravy โ€“ Nice up North

The finishing touch to a perfect Sunday roast, gravy has branched out in the North to become a perfect topping to chips.
Almost a fifth of Northerners pour it over their chips, compared to just 4% of Londoners.

Mayonnaise โ€“ London loves

Mayonnaise has been a popular accompaniment to many dishes throughout Britain since the 19th century, but when it comes to chips, Londoners are more eager to dollop on the mayo than those living in other regions.The popularity of the egg-based condiment depreciates the further you get from the capital, in which over a quarter enjoy it on their chips. 22% of people living in the South, the East and the Midlands opt for mayo, but less than 17% favour it in the North, Wales or Scotland.

Brown sauce โ€“ The Scottish choice

Twice as popular in Scotland as anywhere else in Britain, brown sauce is known for its dark fruity taste and is a popular addition to the full English breakfast as well as a complement for fish and chips. 22% of Scots choose the brown stuff, sometimes referred to as "chippie sauce", on their chips compared to 13% in the North, the region where it is next most popular. It is far less popular in the southern regions of the UK with only 10% of people from the South and London choosing brown sauce.

Curry sauce โ€“ Welsh wonder

Itโ€™s the Welsh who opt for a more edgy addition to their chips, with one in four dipping their chips in a pot of the creamy spicy sauce. It is also an option in the North and the Midlands, where 16% and 15% of people respectively choose this option. It proves very unpopular in the capital however, with only 6% of Londoners choosing to have curry sauce on their chips. There is also an age split, with three times as many under 40s favouring the Asian inspired accompaniment than the over 60s.

 
Depends if I'm feeling fancy. For home made chips, I'll do a home made garlic dip.
For chippie chips, always just salt n vinegar.
