Buying a flat above a takeaway!?

Hi everyone. We're currently looking for a new home and there's a beautiful flat available close to where we currently live. It's stunning inside but it's above a pizza/kebab takeaway shop! Has anyone else looked at properties like this before or lived in one? Even though it's beautiful and we get that lovely homely feel from it we're worried. It's shared freehold, and we're worried about fire hazards etc. we've been in and there was no smells or anything. we're mainly worried about it being shared and the fire issue, the aesthetic of it obviously isn't great either but it's got many pros as well as in space inside and location. Just want some opinions :) thank you!

We lived in a town house when I was a student, above a takeaway. It was in a busy city so no further noises and business than was usual. However a problem we ended up with that I never envisioned….
