Potatoes, sausages and cabbage, with a variety of soups or stews was pretty typical for working class British. Curry is especially popular, though I guess that is an 'Indian' dish but it has been around Britain for over a century now. Otherwise yeah, fish and chips are a pub staple.
Honestly the nasty stuff was usually the weird like, jellied eels, stuff that was preserved over the winter before refrigeration was a thing.
