Quick info
About Nando's Lincoln
Nando's Lincoln is a PERi-PERi chicken restaurant at Unit B, Brayford Wharf N in Lincoln, near the ODEON and a five-minute walk from the bus and train station. Guests choose their spice level on the PERi-ometer scale and can go back for bottomless sauce and drinks. The Fino Pitta and the Sunset Burger sit on a menu that also covers sharing platters, salads and plant-based options, and the All-in Platter for 2 is there for pairs who want to split a meal. Tables for two are not bookable, while larger parties can reserve. When the restaurant is busy, a host seats guests and a wait for a table is common. A pay-and-park multi-storey car park stands next to the building.

Customer Review Summary
The criticism is substantial and specific. Two reviewers describe long waits and poor handling at the door: one was told parties of two could not book, then watched groups seated outside without being offered that option, and another says the kitchen ran out of chicken after ordering, ending in a refund. A takeaway customer found a few fresh wings sitting on top of dried, reheated ones, plus a cob cooked on only one side. A dine-in reviewer called the chicken burger tasteless with rubbery chips, and said the veg burger fell apart on the plate. Others mention being checked on before the food landed and a broken water machine.

“We have visited several Nando's over the years, however I have to say this one has been the best so far! The chicken tasted really fresh and cooked to perfection . A big thanks to the staff who were really attentive and friendly . I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone wanting a perfect meal.”

“Absolutely the worst Nando's I've ever experienced. Staff don't acknowledge customers exist and when you do manage to get a table and eventually order it takes 15mins to be told that they have run out of chicken. Took just over 45mins from entering to leaving with a refund. Jokers need retraining or manager sacking for allowing such service, even in a low end fast food joint.”
- Alyssa Faulkes
“The food is good here. However, we rang up to book a table and was told they don’t take bookings for parties of two only larger parties. We arrived later that evening to get seated and was told it would be a half an hour wait. We noticed the host sheet on display only had bookings of 1 or 2 for different times throughout the evening, all crossed out so had obviously been seated. We were never offered by the hosts to be seated outside either, however, whilst waiting the half an hour for a table to be available we watched multiple parties walk in and then be seated by the same hosts outside.”
