In Huddersfield they call them a chip tea cake.
It's a barm and always will be. As is Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner.
Feel free to ring up a restaurant tonight and make a reservation for tea - they will tell you they don't do cucumber sandwiches.
In the early 80s I was in a chippy in Bradford (the Yorkshire one) and the person in front ordered "Cake 'n T-Cake". They were given a Scallop muffin!Years ago in barnsley, I went into a chippy and asked for a chip barm and the chippy fell silent
The "girl" serving said "we call them butties here" and a really rough looking lad behind me piped up "barm! You're posh. Where are you from, Oldham?"
