It's different again here in the north-east. Every chip shop is either named after the owner or founder, the name of whom is almost always English; or it's called what it is or named after where it is (e.g. The Chippy). Nowhere is combined, but the Indian and Chinese places usually do pizza, chips, chicken nuggets, and that sort of thing as well as whichever cuisine they specialise in.

Every Indian takeaway I know of is run by Indian people, but only a few Chinese takeaways are run by Chinese people around where I live.
