A viral video boosted attendance at Port Rowan’s Chip Ship food truck, prompting plans to expand for next season.

A food truck in Port Rowan, Ontario, known for its dill pickle fries, has gained widespread attention after a viral video by London, Ont. influencer Jesse Walker, who praised the crispy, tangy fries topped with dill pickle ranch. The post, shared on Facebook and Instagram, drew tens of thousands of likes and shares, leading to record crowds over the weekend of September 20. In response, The Chip Ship announced plans to double its footprint next season by adding a second trailer to reduce wait times and offer event catering. The truck operates Fridays and Saturdays from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m., Sundays from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., with its final day on October 5.
