Order pizza refers to the act of requesting a pizza from a restaurant or pizzeria for delivery or pickup. In contemporary practice, orders can be placed in person, by telephone, or through online platforms and mobile apps. The method chosen often affects speed, pricing, and customization options and the practice is widespread across many countries with local variations in pizza styles.

A typical order involves selecting the pizza size, crust type, sauce, cheese, and toppings, as well as the quantity of pizzas. Many vendors also offer sides such as garlic bread, wings, or calzones, and beverages. Dietary options may include gluten-free crusts, plant-based cheese, or other allergen notes. Special requests or modifications, such as extra sauce or cut style, are commonly accommodated based on policy.

Ordering methods include direct orders via a pizzeria’s own website or app and via third-party delivery services. After placing an order, customers provide a delivery address or opt for pickup, choose a time window, and supply payment information. Some orders offer real-time status updates and estimated delivery times, and tips are commonly added for drivers.

Logistics involve the transfer of information from the customer to the restaurant and then to the delivery driver. Delivery times depend on factors such as location, order size, kitchen workload, and traffic. Many services offer contactless delivery as an option, and payment methods may include credit cards, debit cards, digital wallets, cash, or in-app balances.

Impact and considerations include improved convenience for customers and potential efficiency gains for vendors, alongside considerations of service fees, delivery times during peak periods, and data privacy and accuracy of order details.
