142 High Street, Croydon — delivery and collection
Pizza Delivery and Takeaway in Croydon
Two ways to get a Fireaway pizza from our High Street shop: delivery to your door, or click and collect. Delivery covers the streets around 142 High Street rather than the whole of South London, and the site checks your postcode before you place an order. Collection skips the delivery leg completely, so it suits a walk through town.
Fireaway pizza fired at 400 degrees, packed straight from the peel. Open Mon–Sun 11:00–23:00.
If we cannot reach you warm, we would rather tell you before you order.
This page sets out the area, the hours and how each route works, so you can pick delivery or collection based on your evening. Fireaway Croydon bakes every pizza to order on High Street, then hands it to a driver or straight across the counter.

How the delivery area works
We deliver to addresses within a set radius of the shop, not across the whole borough. When you enter your postcode at checkout, the site confirms whether you are inside that area before you commit to an order.
If you are just outside it, collection from High Street is still an option. We would rather tell you upfront than take an order we cannot reach while it is still hot.
How to check in a minute
- Head to the menu, build your basket, then enter your Croydon postcode at checkout.
- The site confirms cover before payment, so you never pay for a delivery we cannot make.
- Outside the line? Switch the same basket to collection and pick it up at 142 High Street.
Good to know
Pizza delivery takeaway Croydon means short trips done well.
Our radius keeps the ride from oven to door short. A base that sets quickly at 400 degrees travels better, but distance still matters, so we keep the map tight around the town centre.

How to find usWhat affects your delivery time
A delivery estimate is a snapshot, not a contract. The time you see at checkout reflects how busy the kitchen is at that moment.
A full kitchen on a Friday evening
Peak hours stack bakes back to back. Your pizza still goes in fresh, but the queue before it is longer. Ordering a little earlier or later smooths the wait.
Rain and roadworks on the High Street
Heavy rain and town-centre works slow every driver. The estimate stretches to allow for traffic, and the box keeps its heat for the short ride.
If the wait runs badly late
The shop will call you rather than leave you guessing. Keep your phone nearby after you order, especially for evening deliveries.
Click and collect in four steps
Collection is straightforward, and often ready sooner than delivery for the same basket, because there is no waiting on a driver.

Kitchen hours
Opening hours and late orders
Our hours vary by day, and the kitchen stops taking orders before the shop closes so the last bakes have time to finish. Check the current hours before planning a late order rather than assuming we are open.
If the kitchen is still running when you call, we will take the order. A folded calzone holds its heat better than an open pizza on a late walk home.
Call the shopDelivery vs collection, honestly compared
Collection wins on speed and on the fact that nothing sits in a box in traffic. Delivery wins when you are not leaving the house, which is most of the reason people order in the first place.
Pick collection when
You are nearby, short on time, or want the pizza at its crispest straight from the oven.
Pick delivery when
You are staying in, feeding family, or the weather makes a walk unappealing.
Fast-fired baking helps both cases, because a base that sets quickly at 400 degrees holds up better on a short trip than a slower-baked one. Pick based on your evening, not on which sounds better.
Group, office and party orders
Larger orders need a bit of planning. If you are feeding an office or a party, call the shop on +44 20 8680 1234 ahead of time so the kitchen can stagger the bakes and everything arrives warm together instead of in waves.
For big group deliveries, give us a rough headcount and a delivery window rather than an exact minute, and we can work around it. Tell us about sharing, halves, dietary needs and sides in the same call, so the counter can pack it in one go.
If something goes wrong
Orders occasionally go sideways: a wrong topping, a missing side, a longer wait than expected. Call the shop directly and we will sort it out.
For anything involving an allergy or a dietary requirement, tell us when you order so the kitchen can account for it during the bake, not after the food has left. It is easier to adjust dough, cheese and toppings before the pizza goes into the oven.
