Anywhere to order food online in Tenerife?

Not for tonight or anytime before I get my extra pay, but I'm watching The Net. That scene right at the beginning where Sandra Bullock orders a pizza on the internet hit a chord with me the first time I saw it, circa 1992. 1992!!!!  Shortly after that I got so excited when my dad said we were getting the Internet, but back then there was still no way to order food online, not in our area anyway. In the UK you can now order fast food deliveries from a mobile phone app and even track its progress. Here in Tenerife... most of the time you have to collect your own takeaway!  Those establishments that do deliver require a phone call. But that so last century!  When I order a pizza I want to be able to do it from my computer without any human contact and just have it arrive on my doorstep.

So does anybody here know of any pizza or Indian places that deliver and that let you order on the internet or with a mobile app?

Oh I do know what you mean Nova!  One thing I miss from the UK.

Check out Bombay Babu's site:  http://bombay-babu.com/index.php/english/online-order?alias=Home#

They are my favourite Indian.  Not UK standard, but pretty good for Tenerife.  Can recommend the tarka dhal. 

Roy's still says their online ordering is under construction.

Excellent @Myrtle Hogan-Lance, thank you!  I shall definitely try that. I love the two Indians nearby but if there's a good one that will take my order online, they'll get my business  :great:

Roy's online ordering has been under construction for years. I don't know why they don't just get on with it.

Quite a few apps in the UK, but unless you are in big metropolitan areas they are useless.
For instance in my town, as many as 20 places are supposedly able to deliver. Living on the south shore of the Thames estuary, some of the sites list places in Southend (Essex) 2 miles as the crow flies, but around 40 miles by road. Strangely all our local Indian restaurants deliver along with Pizza and Burger places, but none of the Chinese do. Whereas in Tenerife all the Chinese deliver but not many Indian. :undecided:
