Where to Order Takeaway and Delivery in South West London

The best food right now in the SW postcodes

View as Map

Get ready for the novel coronavirus pandemic trilogy: lockdown 3.0. The U.K. government has officially ordered to close all cafes, pubs, bars and restaurants in England for the next month, possibly until Wednesday 31 March.

Once again turning the restaurant and bar industry upside down, but at least this time everyone’s a bit more prepared and knows what to expect. London’s restaurants, cafes, and bars are pivoting back to delivery or takeaway options. Many are offering pickup on-site, orders via phone, text or social media, while others are using third-party delivery services, as well as restaurant meal kits and premium at-home restaurant experiences. London’s hospitality lives to fight on. Many are still open and ready to serve hungry Londoners stuck inside.

Here’s the pick of restaurants in south west London.

Note: Due to the changing nature of the coronavirus pandemic this list will be updated continually. Have a tip, on your own restaurant or another? Email london@eater.com, or use the Eater London tipline.

Nayaab Fulham

Copy Link

An unpretentious Indian-Punjabi restaurant in Fulham and one of London’s time-honoured curry houses. There’s nothing old-fashioned about this place, though. Expect only aromatic, rich Punjabi specialities such as lahori nihari, a slow-cooked lamb stew in a myriad of spices, and sahi choolay chicken breast with soft masala chickpeas, alongside Indian classics such as bhuna and dhansak. Pre-order online for collection or hit them up on the main delivery options through Deliveroo and Just Eat where there’s free delivery on orders over £10. To ensure the safety of both drivers and customers, there’ll be a contactless delivery option as a mandatory. 

Pappa Ciccia Putney SW15

Copy Link

Get that dough at neighbourhood pizzeria Pappa Ciccia. Fill up on the 12-inch wood-fired pizzas, made with a thin traditional Italian base and topped with fresh ingredients. For a good time, order the Naopolentana, a combination of mozzarella, tomato, anchovies and capers, or go off-piste and make up a pizza from scratch. Tip: download the app, and save £5 off on first-orders.

Sunnisa Thai Restaurant

Copy Link

Thanks to lockdown 3.0, this Richmond local Thai restaurant is open for takeaways only and will be closing early at 9:15p.m., but will hopefully be back up and running for deliveries on Just Eat and Deliveroo soon. Tuck into juicy Thai fishcakes, fresh yam neua (beef salad with lemongrass, lime, mint and coriander) and spicy drunken noodles speckled with fresh chillies and thai basil. To sweeten the deal there’s 15% off on Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday for collection orders only. 

Pinto Thai Putney

Copy Link

A gem on Upper Richmond Road, Pinto Thai is firmly established as one of Putney’s best-value Thai restaurants. Still open for business for takeaways and delivery through its own website and Deliveroo, go further than the standard pad thai and order bestseller ped ma khaml, a confit duck with tamarind and orange; or nuea kati, a dry red beef brisket curry with makrut lime leaves and chillies. If in the neighbourhood, order the special mid-week lunch for collection, which includes chicken satay, vegetable spring roll, pork on toast, a main and a soft drink.

Nanban/Flippin’ Burgers

Copy Link

Kyushu-style ramen bar Nanban in Seven Dials Market and Brixton has closed for dine-in for the next month. A slimmed down version of Nanban’s menu in Brixton is on offer for takeaway and Deliveroo — but don’t worry, the signature goat curry ramen and crispy chicken karaage with yuzu chilli mayo curry sauce is still there. Chef Tim Anderson returns with Flippin’ Burgers from the restaurant via Deliveroo. Expect beefed burgers such as ‘Chumbucket’ a breaded fried fish burger, cheese, cabbage and MSG caper tartar sauce and ‘What’s the Wurst That Could Happen? A sausage meat burger with curry sauce, pickled and fried onions with kimchi.

Il Gusto Italiano Restaurant

Copy Link

The boys are back in town, the Italian Boys that is. Il Gusto Italiano is a Roehampton local favourite with an extensive traditional Italian menu, that spans fresh made-to-order wood-fired pizzas, handmade pastas and a terrific tiramisu to finish on a high. The crab ravioli and burratina pizza are well worth a try, too. Order for takeaway or delivery on Deliveroo, Just Eat and Uber Eats, within a three-mile radius of the restaurant.

Social Pantry

Copy Link

Chef Alex Head and her team at Social Pantry are still trucking along with their Battersea cafe. Locals can get their coffee fix, pastries, cakes, salads and sandwiches. Lockdown or no lockdown, it’s also prepping hard for the yuletide season and offering bespoke hamper gifts with all the works and pre-ordered Christmas dinners for the big day. Free delivery available within a six-mile radius of the Wandsworth HQ.

Bosa Lebanese Kitchen Southfields

Copy Link

Looking for arguably some of the best Lebanese cooking in south-west London? Look no further than Southfields’ finest, Bosa. From sharing mezze platters loaded with falafel, hummus, moutabel aubergine dip, moussaka, grape vine leaves, tabbouleh and batata hara spicy potatoes to smoky tender lamb koftas straight from the grill, order vibrant, rustic food from the kitchen to the dining table. Look out for weekday lunchtime deals and there’s currently 10% off on the entire menu on Just Eat, Deliveroo and Uber Eats.

Juliets Quality Food (formerly Milk Teeth)

Copy Link

Formerly known as Milk Teeth, Juliets Quality Food is the spin-off of Balham’s cult brunch hangout M1lk and it’s still open for business everyday between 9am-3pm for click and collect, window shop pick-ups and home deliveries. Say no to boring old avocado toast and opt for bougie breakfasts like the ‘BLT’, a butter grilled sourdough flatbread stuffed with crispy dry-cured bacon, tomato and herb salad, and buckwheat pancakes with Yorkshire rhubarb, white cremeux and bergamot curd. Plus, they’re working on bringing back brunch and dinner kits, so Londoners can be even more unbearable about brunch at home!

Casa Mofongo Bar Restaurant

Copy Link

Casa Mofongo Bar brings the Dominican party to south west Londoners’ homes. The mashed ripe plantain with minced beef ketchup and mayo and fried belly pork mofongo are must-orders, as well as a wide selection of hearty Dominican stews, golden fried chicken pica pollo and chicharron. Spans the usual delivery options on Deliveroo, Just Eat and Uber Eats, with the option for curbside pickup and no-contact delivery.

Namak Mandi

Copy Link

This no-frills Pashtun restaurant doesn’t do things by halves. Portion sizes here are absolutely massive, so prepare accordingly with stretchy trousers. It’s open for takeaway orders and delivery on Deliveroo and Just Eat throughout lockdown, ready to grace kitchen tables with the kabuli pilau whose steamed rice mixed with raisins and carrots comes with choice of beef or lamb; lamb karahi, a mutton curry so tender it slides right down; and meaty mix grills and chapli kebabs.

Bravi Ragazzi

Copy Link

It’s rumoured that the chef and owner Luca Imprudente gets water specially flown in from Naples, but holy water or no holy water — it’s still arguably one of London’s finest Neapolitan-style pizza. Made fresh to order, get perfectly charred sourdough pizza from a wood-fired oven, flatbread sandwiches and a range of Italian desserts. Pizza wise: the Margherita, Maradona, Bufalina and O Primme Ammore will make eyes roll back with delight. Takeaway and delivery on Deliveroo and Just Eat is available, and those coming in-person can have the option to eat immediately on top of a car bonnet or precariously balanced on a bike seat if too impatient and hungry before getting home

Chick and Beers

Now with two locations in New Malden, this is probably the city’s best Korean fried chicken, available for delivery on the apps or for collection from either here, or its other space on Coombe Road.
