Online ordering for pizza shops in Ealing

Updated 13 November 2026. Figures come from the Food Standards Agency register as pulled on 13 November 2026. The page covers the Ealing council area, and no business is named. The whole-area picture is on our Ealing page.

In short: Ealing has 70 FSA-registered premises with pizza or pizzeria in the name, most in W3 and UB6. An Ealing pizza shop can take direct orders on its own Chefzi page: plans run from £9 to £49 a month per location (ex VAT), commission is 0% ever, and the first month is free with no card.

The register lists 70 premises in Ealing with "pizza" or "pizzeria" in the business name, 41 of them registered as takeaways and 29 as restaurants or cafés. The most are in W3 (13), UB6 (13), W5 (12), UB1 (9). That is 5.3% of the area's 1,312 takeaway, restaurant and café premises, against 4.6% across the UK, so the word is about as common here as in the UK as a whole.

If you run a pizza shop here, other premises with the same word in their name are likely to be near you, and a customer scrolling a delivery app may see several of you at once. Your own ordering page is the one place where no rival is listed beside you.

What the FSA register shows for Ealing pizza names

Read this as a name-keyword count, not a census. A premises is counted only if its registered name contains one of the words, so pizza shops with other names are missed and any place using the word for something else is included. Only takeaway, sandwich shop, restaurant, café and canteen premises are counted, and no business is named.

Of the 65 with a numeric rating, 32 (49%) are rated 5 and 8 (12%) are rated 0, 1 or 2. That is a higher share than the 41.7% of all rated takeaways in Ealing that hold a 5. A further 5 are awaiting inspection, awaiting publication or exempt. A rating is a snapshot of one inspection, and the FSA says so on every record.

Which postcode districts have the most

W3 holds the most, 13 of the 70 (19%), and the premises sit across 8 postcode districts in all. Where several pizza-named kitchens share a district, a short delivery time and a clear minimum order do more to win a repeat customer than a deeper menu.

Ealing in the wider picture

Ealing has 324 takeaway and sandwich shop premises and 988 restaurant, café and canteen premises on the register. On takeaway premises it ranks 43 of 363 UK council areas, and 11 of 33 in London. Across all rated takeaways in Ealing, 41.7% hold a 5 against 62.0% across England, and 19.8% are rated 0 to 2 against 5.8%. Ealing is part of Greater London, whose page lists every council area there with its takeaway and restaurant counts.

Ealing pizza names in numbers

Using the ONS estimate of 387,072 residents, that works out at 1.8 pizza-named premises per 10,000 people, compared with 1.4 across the UK, so Ealing sits above the national rate. By raw count, Ealing is 18th of the 363 UK council areas for these names and 1st of 33 in London.

Across the area 5.3% of takeaway and restaurant premises carry one of these words. In UB6 that rises to 9%, while in W5 it is 4%.

On freshness, 53% of the 70 dated records were inspected in the last 12 months, compared with 45% across all 1,312 dated takeaway and restaurant premises in Ealing. The median time since inspection is 11 months for this list and 13 for the whole area.

Population figures are ONS mid-2025 estimates; every other figure comes from the same FSA register pull as the tables above. Small samples move a lot from one inspection to the next, so read the shares as a guide to where the pattern is, not as a verdict on any business.

What this means for your online ordering

• Zones that match the map. The premises are concentrated in W3 and UB6, so a tight zone around the busiest district with a wider second zone for the rest of Ealing fits the spread.
• Pause ordering when the kitchen is flat out, and mark an item out of stock when it runs out, so nobody orders what you cannot make.
• Take cash as well as card. Cash on collection and cash on delivery are on every plan, and card payments are on Plus and Pro.
• Make the deal a menu item. Two pizzas, a side and a drink can be one item with a required choice for each part, instead of a customer typing a note.
• Tablet offline? The Chefzi Orders app rings until someone accepts or rejects. If the device is offline, Chefzi texts the restaurant and then calls.

Late-night hot food in Ealing: what to check

If you sell hot food or drink after 11pm and before 5am, the Licensing Act 2003 treats it as late night refreshment, so you normally need the council's licence. Start from the council's licensing section: Ealing council licensing (checked 13 November 2026).

For the wider England and Wales rules, read our late night refreshment licence guide. You can set collection and delivery hours independently in Chefzi, which lets your online hours follow your licence conditions. Not legal advice.

How to start

1. Put your menu into Chefzi on a short call with us. We set it up with you and aim to have you live in 24 to 48 hours.
2. Set required choices for the way your customers order, and set your delivery zones by postcode district or radius.
3. Add your ordering link to your Google Business Profile (how) and a QR code to every bag (QR kit).
4. Once customers agree to hear from you, send them the link (SMS and email marketing, Plus and Pro).

A worked example for an Ealing pizza shop

This is an illustration, not a measured figure for Ealing. We have no published average order value for Ealing pizza shops, so it uses £25, the default in our commission calculator, and a round 20 orders a week. Put your own numbers in.

Move 20 weekly orders (roughly 87 a month at £25, £2,175 of sales) from Just Eat to your own Chefzi link and the maths is this. On Just Eat's published partner rates (read 12 November 2026, details), 14% with your own drivers and 30% when it delivers, plus VAT, you would pay £365 at 14% (£305 plus £61 VAT) or £783 at 30% (£652 plus £130 VAT).

On Chefzi those 87 orders cost no commission. The flat Plus plan, which includes card payments, is £22 a month (£19 billed annually) per location excluding VAT, however busy the month is. Payment-provider card fees are left out of both sides, and any orders that stay on Just Eat, Deliveroo or Uber Eats still pay their commission.

What Chefzi does not do

• It does not set up delivery for you: you run your own drivers, and Chefzi has no courier integrations.
• It has no kiosk and no CRM.
• A pre-order lead time is set for the whole location, not for one dish.
• Orders placed on Just Eat, Deliveroo or Uber Eats still pay those apps' commission. Chefzi helps you move regular customers to your own site.
