Quarrelsome when talking in takeaway shop (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

chippie

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'takeaway shop' is the definition.
(chippie can mean a fish and chip shop)

'quarrelsome when talking in' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'when' could be 'e' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'e' is found within the answer.
'in' could be 'hip' (both can mean fashionable) and 'hip' is present in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for chippie that I've seen before include "character in fast-food outlet" , "food shop" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
