Takeaways in Saffron Walden

Saffron Walden has held a market since 1141, and it still runs twice a week, but the delivery apps have stayed down the road in Haverhill and Cambridge. Four of the town’s takeaways take orders on their own websites and five more by phone. These are the nine independents we could check.

Getting a takeaway in Saffron Walden

Nearly everything is within a couple of minutes of the Market Place. Ish And Chips is at 48 High Street, the Trawlerman is in the Central Arcade, The Grill is on Market Row, Jade Garden is on Market Hill, Oriental Cottage is on Mercers Row and Bella Pizza is on King Street. George Street has two: Indigo Indian Dining and the ABC Grill. The exception is Dosa Paratha Corner, out on Rowntree Way on the Shire Hill side of town.

Both chippies take orders online and both deliver: Ish And Chips through its own Flipdish site and the Trawlerman through its own website. The Grill does pizzas, burgers, kebabs, wraps and jacket potatoes, ordered on its site or app for collection or delivery, and Indigo takes online orders for collection. Dosa Paratha Corner is the South Indian option, listed as opening evenings from Tuesday to Saturday, and the ABC Grill is a barbecue takeaway that one directory lists as cash only.

Deliveroo doesn’t list any restaurants in Saffron Walden; its nearest coverage is Haverhill, about 15 km away. When we checked on 1 November 2026, Uber Eats showed eight places for the town, including Costa, Domino’s and two village pubs, and Dosa Paratha Corner was the only takeaway from this page among them. Market days are Tuesday and Saturday, with extra Thursday markets before Christmas, and the Market Place is full of stalls on those days.

Good to know: on Tuesdays and Saturdays the Market Place is given over to the market, so allow a few extra minutes if you are collecting from the Trawlerman, The Grill or Jade Garden.

How we choose

We list independent takeaways in Saffron Walden that you can order from direct, either on their own website or by phone. National chains, cafés and delivery-app-only listings are left out, and so is anywhere with a food hygiene rating below 2. Nobody pays to appear, and being listed does not mean a takeaway uses tastie. We checked every listing against its Food Standards Agency record and the takeaway’s own listings (its website, social media page or directory entries) on 1 November 2026. Menus, prices, opening hours and delivery areas can change, so check with the takeaway before you order.

Hygiene ratings come from the Food Standards Agency. Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0. Spotted a mistake, or want your takeaway added or removed? Contact us.
