What To Order On Deliveroo For Valentine’s Day

/

Slipped your mind completely? Or realised you could make a bit more of an effort? All hope is not lost. From flowers and fizz to chocolates and all-out meals for two, Deliveroo has forgetful old romantics covered – and fast. Here’s what we’d order for today... just remember to do so early, as Deliveroo drivers are striking from 5-10pm.

FOR DINNER

Prezzemolo & Vitale

Fancy a spot of cooking? Prezzemolo & Vitale is one of the capital’s most pleasing delis – and its ingredients options on Deliveroo will easily make up a great meal at home: think charcuterie boards, a selection of cheese, dips and accompaniments, fresh pasta and sauces – plus a lovely range of Italian cakes and gelato.

Trude's Grocery

On The Pavement in Clapham, Trude’s is a godsend for south Londoners looking for quality ingredients, top brands and nice nibbles. Now available on Deliveroo, this is the shop to explore for high-end ready meals – think Lina Stores pasta kits, ready-to-cook udon sets from Koya, Willy’s Pies and next-level dumplings from My Neighbour The Dumplings.

La Tua Pasta

If you’re lucky, you might still be able to track down some of La Tua Pasta’s heart-shaped tortellini for this evening. If not, you might be able to find some of the kitchen’s other ready-to-cook pasta and sauces. We think the brand’s Burrata & Black Truffle Tortelloni would go down a treat.

FOR SOMETHING SWEET

Crème

Putting a Gallic twist on American classic desserts, Crème London – founded by three French friends – is famed for its giant, gooey, chocolate-studded cookies. Alongside popular flavours such as Miso & White Chocolate and Classic Milk Chocolate, there are Vegan Double Chocolate cookies, which are freshly baked each morning. All come in present-worthy packaging.

Rococo

Original, design-led packaging and interesting flavours define Rococo, which has 38 years of expertise in chocolate craft. Use Valentine’s Day as a chance to opt for something suitably pink and cute. The Cat That Got The Cream Chocolate Truffles Box contains 12 delicate ganaches and pralines, while A Bundle of Love milk chocolate hearts are sure to raise a smile.

Melt Notting Hill

This chocolatier makes fresh chocolates daily in its Notting Hill shop (and vegan options are available too). Even better, the team uses an electric delivery van for zero-emissions drop-offs. We’d opt for the sea-salted caramels, milk-chocolate hazelnut slab and a couple of its sea-salted mud-pie brownies to share.

Order here

Kova Patisserie

This upmarket patisserie serves Japanese treats, alongside organic teas and Insta-worthy matcha lattes. Offering Londoners the chance to taste and experience the latest café culture from East Asia, Kova’s most popular delivery dishes include mille crêpes (multiple layers of French crêpes with a light custard cream filling between each layer), sea-salt lava cheese gateaux and matcha shortcake.

Order here

Ladurée

You can’t go wrong with a box of Ladurée macarons. For today, the team has designed a couple of pink and red boxes, filled with eight assorted macarons – but we think any of the French patisserie’s mixed boxes would hit the mark.

FOR FIZZ

Amathus Drinks, Wine & Spirits

Amathus is a family owned drinks importer and retailer with stores all over London, Bath and Bristol. Its extensive expertise and product offering take the stress out of gifting – as does the fact it’s on Deliveroo. As well as picking up a bottle of interesting fizz or two, don’t forget to pop a bag of Torres crisps into your order.

Order here

Drink With Sasha

If interesting spirits are your thing, take a look at Drink With Sasha, a Marylebone boutique with a team of booze aficionados behind the counter. If you can’t make it in store, its online offering is impressive in both size and breadth – and is handily organised by spirit and wine type.

Order here

Whole Foods Market

While Whole Foods Market could be handy for any scenario you might face right now, its Deliveroo offering is very extensive on the bottle front. Whether you’re after a ready-to-drink cocktail, bottle of Bolly or its own-brand prosecco, there’s something for every type of celebration.

The Bottle Cocktail Shop

If cocktails are your thing, look to this online shop, which has a signature all batched, pre-diluted and bottled – just chill and serve over ice. From vodka martinis to margaritas, this is a simple, low-key way to show your appreciation. There’s also a great selection of natural wines, whiskies, no- and low-alcohol options and ‘provisions’ – think truffle crisps and Perello olives.

FOR GIFTING

PM Flowers

Need some flowers and a card, pronto? The guide we ran last week will work wonders if you’re keen to step out in person – but if you’re strapped for time, PM Flowers in Paddington will do the trick. If you’ve left it ’til now, you’re going to have to spend to get a decent arrangement – of which this lot have plenty.

Zapp

Most Londoners have learnt how useful Zapp can be when you’re caught out by an unexpected ingredient in a cookbook or have forgotten to stock up on loo roll on your way home. These days, the delivery service can get you almost anything via Deliveroo – from Bose speakers to Acqua di Parma cologne and our favourite VD-appropriate wine, Love Bite by New Theory. For Valentine’s Day, we suggest taking a look at its gifting section, where you’ll find everything from Bamford hand cream to Jo Malone London perfume and Paul Smith candles.

Order here

Daylesford

Another place that will help you out on the food front, the Marylebone outpost of the famous farm shop is a great shout for thoughtful gifts. On Deliveroo, you can call in everything from candles and coloured drinking glasses spelling ‘Love’ to soap and scent gift sets. 

Order here

Waitrose

Like M&S, Waitrose is a decent option for a last-minute bouquet of flowers. To avoid the usual Valentine’s Day cliches, we suggest a spring selection, such as its minimalist hydrangea and eucalyptus bunch.
