English

Subject field(s)
  • Food Industries

DEF

Food purchased at a restaurant but eaten elsewhere. The restaurant may or may not provide table service. In the United States, food ordered this way (especially in fast food) is ordered to go, and in the United Kingdom it is sometimes ordered to eat out, as opposed to eating in.

OBS

Take-out food is often fast food, but not always so. Whereas fast food carries the connotation of a standardized product from a globalized chain or franchise, take-away outlets are often small businesses serving traditional food, which can be of high quality.
