It is not something I have seen signed, but do remember when I was young 
people would take a bowl to the fish and chip shop and get it filled 
with chips, maybe they still would.

Traditionally fish and chips were served in old newspaper, that is 
rightly illegal in the modern world.

However we are not living in normal times and until things return to 
normal, and who knows what rules will remain, this is not something we 
can map or verify.

Away from food slightly, I and many real ale enthusiasts have 4 pint 
beer containers which we take to a pub and get filled from a pub 
handpump. When pub were allowed to serve take aways but not open 
refilling containers was not allowed. They were only allowed to use 
brand new containers each time.

This will obviously be applied to take away outlets at the present time 
and will not really work in what is becoming a delivery led industry.
