Customer Review Summary
Reviews are split on wait times and value, with one diner recalling repeated turnaways before a visit where food arrived within six minutes. Others push back hard: one calls the extra saucy wings and Portuguese salad sides overpriced, another describes chicken in a wrap as tough and slimy, and a third dislikes the order-yourself, clear-your-own-table setup entirely.

“First and probably last time for us. Don't like the Nandos model. It's a bit like McDonalds level service at getting towards proper sit in sit down prices. If I'm gonna have to do my own ordering, get my own cutlery, condiments etc etc …”

“Came at about 1pm on Wednesday. After getting sat down, we had a little chat with the waiter who told us that he'd be back in a little so we could decide on our order while he's gone... About 10-15 minutes later, he didn't come back so we …”

“As someone who visits Nando’s at least once a week, I’ve got to say this has got to be the worst one I’ve ever been to. The chicken within the chicken wraps were in massive chunks but worst of all the chicken was tough, slimy and just looked unpleasant. Will not be back to this branch again!”

“Credit where credit is due. We had came twice before and was told on the door that it was over an hours wait even though there was plenty of tables available so we just left. I understand they were doing a staged opening so tried again a few weeks later which we got the same answer on the door. Tonight we arrived to a very pleasant welcome! We were seated and from initially ordering the food to actually receiving the food was a whole 6 minutes !! Food was great and the staff were very friendly and welcoming so it restored our faith. Thanks again.”

“£21.35 for 10 extra saucy wings (13.50)and 2 sides (6.25)- 2 Portuguese salads (which were the sides but you have to add on an extra 1.50 on top of the sides for 4 sliced tomatoes some cucumber and some pickled onions so 7.75 for 2 small boxes of salad) is a joke and the wings are not very big either - will definitely not be back - raging 🤬 also just want to say my wife bought this as I would definitely not paid the money for this - over rated - many alternatives much cheaper.”
