“This place is always packed and for good reason! The food is lovely, the staff are friendly and helpful and atmosphere is buzzing. Great place to meet with friends or even eat out with family and kids. We ordered the sunset burger and loaded fries and I have to say it was packed with flavour.

“Went to Nandos this evening with my family and grandchildren for a meal. Have to say I’ve been to a few different Nandos but this place really delivered. The staff were very polite , professional and welcoming The restaurant was busy but the staff were great. The meals for the family were well cooked and served in good time with staff checking in to make sure everything was good. A huge thank to all the staff and especially TJ and Farhan including the rest of their team. Definitely recommend this Nandos branch. ( Halal too).”

The customer service was just as impressive, a big thank you to Sana, who made sure everything ran smoothly at our table and really looked after us. Her friendly and attentive service made the visit even better. Definitely will be visiting again soon!”
