Takeaway and hot food fit-out for Exeter businesses
From the first measured survey to the day you open, our takeaway and hot food fit-out work in Exeter is planned around your lease, your landlord and your trading hours.
A takeaway fit-out is a compact commercial kitchen with a customer counter and a waiting area, built to food hygiene standards and with extraction that satisfies planning conditions.
How do we plan the job?
Every takeaway and hot food fit-out quote for Exeter lists each element separately, so you can see what the layout, joinery, services and finishes each cost.
In and around Exeter we are usually asked to work on salons, barbers and beauty clinics and shopping centre units and retail park stores.

- Kitchen line layout and stainless fabrication
- Extraction canopy and odour control

What should Exeter owners check first?
- Odour control on the extraction is often a planning condition.
- Wall finishes must be smooth, washable and non-absorbent in food areas.
- Hot food takeaways need planning permission for the use class, and many councils restrict new takeaways near schools.
In England, fit-out work that affects fire escape, structure, drainage or accessibility falls under the Building Regulations and is signed off by local authority or approved inspector building control. Shopfronts, extraction flues and illuminated signs are dealt with separately by the local planning authority.
