I don't know if it's the sort of thing the duty planner would/could tell you if you phoned, but it'd be nice to know if it's a place the council would never consider giving permission to turn into a takeaway.

Yes, they'd give you an idea, but it would probably be 'maybe, depends'.
It's not just chip shops that are a worry. How about a bar? Or an offy that opens until midnight? Or just a grocers that gets it's first delivery at 5am every day?
Only you can decide how good the flat is vs the risk of being above a commercial premises.
But then who's to say someone in a residential building might not be noisier than a shop?
All of this is why I live on a desert island.
