Pub food is generally offered with chips.

Chips are not fries, though these days many pubs serve fries as chips. Basically, whereas fries have stuff like corn starch and what have you, proper chips are just long chunks of potato either deep-fried or oven-baked, with nothing added during cooking. They are then (usually) soused with vinegar and sprinkled with salt before eating. They're much fatter and chunkier than fries, and when done properly they are delightful.
