About Nando's Crawley
Nando's Crawley is a restaurant in Crawley, at Unit 10 on Crawley Leisure Park, next to Caddies and opposite Hollywood Bowl and Cineworld. The menu is built around PERi-PERi chicken, with the Fino Pitta and the Sunset Burger as the other main plates. Diners pick their own heat level on the PERi-ometer scale, and sharing platters, salads and plant-based options sit alongside the chicken.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the friendly, helpful staff, with several praising the service as warm and quick and the food as arriving fast. The chicken is the main draw: one enjoyed the wings and quarter chicken with fries and mash, and another liked the coleslaw. Close behind, the Fino Pitta gets approval, and kids' meals and sauces like hot honey go down well with families. The recurring complaint is food quality. Several describe meals arriving barely warm, with cold, soggy chips, burnt Rostinas, a dry chicken and a loose bone in a quarter chicken. One Deliveroo order found the peri salted chips with barely any peri salt. A few note the room feels congested, with tight space between tables and by the drinks machine. One reviewer was confused by the app-based pre-ordering and accidentally ordered chicken breast instead of thigh, and one felt the price demanded hotter, properly cooked food.

“At first glance, this Nando’s seemed like a great location with a lovely atmosphere and very friendly staff. Unfortunately, the experience was completely ruined by a serious hygiene issue. We were brought olives, and I noticed a fly inside the olives. The olives were also left uncovered, along with some of the other snack items, for the entire time we were eating. Throughout our meal, we had to deal with an insane number of flies around our table and our food. To make matters worse, the table next to us also found a fly in their food. I’m sorry, but having green flies around the food — and actually finding one in the food — is extremely unpleasant and completely unacceptable. It made it impossible to properly enjoy our meal and really ruined the entire dining experience. Considering we spent around £80 between two people, I find this particularly disappointing and unacceptable given the prices. I understand that flies can occasionally be an issue, especially around food, but the sheer number of them and the fact that one was found in the food suggests that this needs to be taken much more seriously. The staff were lovely, and the location itself was nice, but unfortunately the hygiene issue completely overshadowed everything else. I hope management takes this feedback seriously and addresses the problem.”

“I visited Nando’s recently with my family and unfortunately had a really disappointing experience. The customer service from a staff member called Edy (I believe that was her name) was honestly some of the worst I’ve experienced. She came across as rude, dismissive, and unwelcoming throughout our visit. It felt like our family was an inconvenience rather than valued customers, which really put a dampener on what should have been a nice meal together. Thankfully, another member of staff called Tyler completely turned things around. He was friendly, polite, and genuinely seemed to care about making sure we had a better experience. He treated us with kindness and respect, and his positive attitude made a huge difference after such a poor start. Tyler is a real credit to the team and deserves recognition for his excellent customer service. It’s a shame because the food was good, but the way you’re treated can really affect the overall experience. I hope management addresses the issues with customer service, while also recognising staff members like Tyler who go above and beyond for customers.”

“Really disappointing order. The Fino Pitta was okay, but the chips arrived cold and soggy, and the Rostinas were badly burnt. For the price you pay at Nando’s, I’d expect the food to arrive hot and properly cooked. Definitely not up to the usual standard and unfortunately most of the meal wasn’t enjoyable.”

“I had such a lovely experience at Nando’s Crawley, and I especially want to mention Adriana, who was absolutely wonderful. She was so friendly, warm, and attentive, and genuinely went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience. It’s always refreshing to receive service with such a lovely attitude and a genuine smile. Adriana is a real asset to the team, and she made our visit even more enjoyable. Thank you, Adriana, for being so lovely and making us feel so welcome! I’ll definitely be back! ❤️”

“Ordered on Deliveroo, fino pitta and peas are great, but how can these be classed as peri salted chips? Barely any peri salt on them”
