Yes but you would never order fries, you would say chips still. We have some very confusing rules on this apparently.

I don't think it's very confusing when you remember that we don't get (non-hot) chips (crisps) as a side dish to any meal.

Like in the U.S. you can get either as a side. In Australia if it says (or you ask for) chips, you get hot chips (fries).

Chips (crisps) are just a standalone snack here.

Would you order chips at maccas? I wouldn’t.
