Three routes to your doorstep
Start with someone local, since a person can reach any door in London. The apps are quicker where they run.
Ask a local helper
When the apps stop short of Oval, a local helper picks it up. They walk every aisle in Clapham Road, pick the fresh things properly and carry more than a rider can. The price is fixed before they reach Clapham Road, and you pay when the bags arrive. You can find a helper for London on Taskerama.
Deliveroo and Uber Eats
Deliveroo keeps adding branches near London, and Uber Eats runs at some. Enter your SW9 postcode and you see straight away whether Oval is in range. Where Oval is covered, bags often reach the door inside the hour.
The Lidl online shop
Online, Lidl handles the household side rather than the London food aisles. Kitchen things, tools, clothes and wine, posted anywhere including London. It will not fill a trolley at Clapham Road, though the middle aisle is covered. See what Lidl has online.

Holborn and Covent Garden, Rotherhithe and Gipsy Hill are on the edge of things, and delivery there is less certain. Worth checking on the day, since this shifts about in London.
