Papa Johns Welling

The Welling Papa John's sits on Bellegrove Road near the corner with Kelvin Road, a couple of minutes' walk from Welling station and the eastern stretch of the High Street. It is the chain's only outlet in this corner of the Borough of Bexley and delivers across the surrounding Welling, East Wickham, Falconwood and Eltham postcodes. The franchise has been at this address for several years and operates from a single ground-floor shopfront on the busy stretch of Bellegrove Road that holds Pizza 2 Night, Pizza GoGo and a long parade of grills, kebab counters and chip shops.

The menu is the standard national Papa John's board: hand-tossed pizzas across the chain's classics — Pepperoni Passion, BBQ Meat Feast, Spicy Buffalo Chicken, Padana, Veg Hot — alongside a separate vegan range, sides of garlic bread, wedges, chicken poppers and the chain's well-known dipping sauces. The Welling store carries a Food Standards Agency hygiene rating of 4. Minimum order for delivery is around fourteen pounds and the shop publishes a forty-five-minute delivery target. Most trade is delivery rather than collection given the residential catchment behind the road.
