Nandos Chickenland

Now I love Nandos but have to mark this one low.
The restaurant was nearly empty and overrun with staff yet service was slow. Seating us, cooking out food, it all took longer than usual for no apparent reason.
Then there’s the food. I had the portobello mushroom and halloumi wrap (no halloumi double mushroom) with mango and lime marinade. It was tasteless, and mostly contained lettuce. If I hadn’t added the pineapple it would have basically been a lettuce wrap. The chargrilled vegetable ‘fino’ side was a let down. Mostly onion with a few peppers and the occasional courgette. And just bland.
My companion had the butterfly chicken breast burger and commented that it was quite dry.
C’mon Nandos, you can do so much better than this!

So I’ve been Nando’s and well I’m gonna give you a mixture of my experience plus my nephews as it was his first time!
So warning anyone any groups more than two people there is a 30 minute or more wait and I guess even two people there is a queue for a table but it’s just normally pretty busy.
So after spending £50 for three people — no alcohol just chicken wrap two/​three sides each and a soft drink x3 it’s not the most reasonable priced meals as no one liked the sweet pototoe wedges that were burnt and uncooked at the same time, one of the garlic breads had a bite taken out of it, the chicken wrap was ok but in the eyes of my nephew he has had better.
The low score was down to one hour wait for a table which we didn’t get a table for 5 people we ended up getting a table for 4 and we all squashed around it trying my to get hit by the other customers and servers, second point was the food by bite taken from the garlic bread and hard burnt sweet pototoe wedges.
Sorry guys next time I’m going to eat elsewhere

Nandos Chicken. Does what it says on the tin!
Always a popular restaurant and this location is no exception. Located near a cinema, bowling lanes and fitness gym along with a variety of shops, this restaurant is always busy. Make sure you leave plenty of time to queue, eat and get to your booked film or bowling lane.
Food is, well, chicken mainly surprisingly!!! However, at this visit I did notice that there were other selections creeping in e.g. steak roll and some vegetarian options. But really, do you come to Nandos for either of those???
You can get unlimited soft drinks (why never the sparkling water??) which will keep the thirstiest person satisfied.
Although the routine is the get your number, sit and decide what to eat then go to the counter to order before sitting and waiting for your order to be brought to your table. I notice on this occasion that the waiters were asking whether we wanted anything else with our meal whilst we were tucking in. Odd I thought if you have to pay at the till how does that work. Then I saw the waiter bring the credit card machine to a table soooo, you can order more food conveniently from your table now not sure if that is good or bad. Good food easily brought to you whilst you enjoy your meal…
No time to stay for desserts but notice an improvement on these also. Not just frozen yoghurt and Portuguese pies anymore (although both yummy). Note to self, make sure you leave time to wait in the queue for your table to ensure you have time for dessert. I wish someone would have said before I went…
