If you sell freshly cooked products for consumption while they are still hot they are standard-rated, 4.5.
Some of these products are, however, bought to eat later, either cold or after re-heating. Examples include pies, pasties, sausage rolls and similar savoury products, cooked chickens or joints of meat, bread products and croissants. The liability will depend, therefore, on how you sell them.

I know it doesn't apply to fish and chips, but it does to some other types of take-aways.
