It’s chip truck time – the time of year when we crave the warm, brown-paper-wrapped-cardboard-boxes filled to the brim with steaming potato-ey goodness.

Equally salty, sweet, crisp and chewy, the search for the perfect French fry is on. Make sure no potato gets left behind using this list of local chip trucks.

Wes’ Chips

198 Madawaska Blvd., Arnprior
613-623-5492

This chip stand is a community icon, and has been in business at the same location in Arnprior for 60 years, which is a testament to how good these fries are. When you make fries this good, you don’t need to make anything else – you won’t find anything else on the menu but fries, fries, and more fries. Tip: Don't go for the small size, get as big as you think you can handle, then top it off with salt, ketchup, and vinegar, the works! These fries can handle it.

For the Halibut

220 Hastings Street N., Bancroft
613-332-0110

How about a side of fish with your fries? This fish and chip truck in Bancroft is elevating your average fry to the next level. Hand cut, crispy, these fries will definitely be a contender. You won’t need to worry about getting overloaded with potato angst – you can order their “Just a Few” size (10-12 fries) to make sure you get the right portion size.

Smokin’ Chip Wagon

198 Hastings St. N., Bancroft

These fries are dark, crispy, and just a little bit sweet – so basically they could be the perfect fry you’ve been looking for all your life. Known as one of the best poutines in the region, you won’t find anything to complain about with their diverse menu or the homemade extras that add that something special to your experience.

The Cheeky Chippy

453 Ottawa St., Almonte
613-252-6139

If you’ve travelled in England and loved their fish and chips wrapped in newspaper you’ll love finding a slice of the Brits in the small town of Almonte. The Cheeky Chippy serves up fresh cod in a crispy beer batter, and is a must-try for anyone looking for a global fish and chips adventure. Their hand cut chips are a must try, and you can add a battered dill pickle for only a dollar.

Mega Munch Breakfast & Lunch

13533 Hwy 118, Haliburton
705-306-3663

You'll find something for everyone in the family on Mega Munch's extensive menu, including anyone looking for keto-friendly options. Choose from burgers, bowls, fries, and wraps. And here's something you don't see very often at a chip truck, they even serve breakfast!

The Grub Hub

320 Coleman St., Carleton Place

This fry stand's menu has a little bit of everything on it. We're talking fries, pouting, burgers, wraps, and a good old fashioned whistle dog. Don't miss ordering one of their gooey butter tarts to top off your meal.

Fitz's Fries

103 Mill St. #101, Lanark

This fry stand in Lanark Village doesn't have a website or social media page, probably because they don't need to! Their reputation as serving delicious fries, burgers, and more, precedes them. Pick up your chips to go and take them across the street to the park and beach on the Clyde River.
