I was really impressed with this Nandos, I was feeling a bit down after a bit of a hard day, followed by a long journey and I couldn’t find anywhere for food as everywhere was full or closed (inc my hotel!) I rang Nandos and explained and they were super kind on the phone and said they would fit me in. When I got there all the staff were lovely and really helpful. Everyone had a great personality and smile and it made a real difference after a very trying day. My food came really quick and was really tasty, I had half a chicken with lemon and herb. (I’m a wuss with spices!) It was just nice to sit down in a welcome environment and decompress after a very long day. It cheered me up and made me feel a lot better. Thankyou Nandos, you have a great team working in this branch who are a credit to your company❤️

Terrible Order & Collect service. Ordered online to collect from this place. Paid the price and went in to collect. While picking up I asked if everything is in the bag, they said Yes. I had to drive 20 minutes to collect and drove back to the home only to realize that they put only Pitta bread, but no humous and peri peri drizzle. Such hopeless service. They encourage to order online and easy way to collect. But the real truth is that they can just put what ever they like. Look at the Garlic bread they put in the takeaway order. I called in to find out why they missed, they simply apologized and say they can refund or I get free humous next time. Such a gross recklessness towards the customers. This is not the first time they did with collect service. I ordered online and was given time slot. When I went in and realized that they didn't even process my order and I had to wait for 20minutes in the restaurant to pick up. We were very happy when this particular restaurant was opened in the retail park and as a family we have been visiting since this restaurant was opened. Most of the times the service is good, but they do mess up with things, which we could sort out if we are eating in. But with the order & Collect they should be watching out what they are putting in the bags. Look at the terrible Garlic bread they put in. They are in a busy place, but it's not a excuse just to put what ever you like in the takeaways and missing bits from the order. I'm still puzzled when I think about what could have I done with the half roasted Pitta without Humous and drizzle.

turned away at the door as the grill is too busy?!? 2/3 of the restaurant was empty but apparently there’s a waiting list for people who want a table. Yet no one queueing to sit in…. I’m confused! (Check the pictures! They don’t lie) So the grill is too full for us to sit in (as mentioned by the door staff) however the grill is empty enough to do take away?!? Come on! I eat Nando’s at least once a week in London and I’ve never heard such tosh in all my life. Lol. Bad customer service and bad messaging to your customers. At least make up a reasonable and consistent excuse to turn away paying customers. Nando’s is not cheap! Especially since all the price hikes! 20 mins and still waiting for my take away…. 35 mins… still waiting… spoke to the assistant managers about this and now have a clear answer to what happened Change of shift, not enough staff, not enough chicken prepared at 9pm so they had no ready food to serve. Hence the manager stopped accepting sit in bookings!!! But why lie to the customers?? We’re not stupid. And to top it off. Why keep us waiting for take away rather than allowing us to sit in comfort at a table which would have allowed for a bit more leeway. Astounded to how the manager made logic out of this situation Chillis also never added to my loyalty card!!! So I was also lied to by the assistant manager.

I don't understand why staff is not informing their customers at the door about ordering rules, it's always so confusing. You must to pay through the app or at the bar first to get your order but you need to figure it out after sitting too long and waiting for the never coming waitress. It would be easier for all if they tell you that when they welcome you, it's so annoying. Chicken burgers were great but the desserts are not very tasty, especially some thing they call the ice cream. Texture is great but taste is artificial, it's even difficult to describe. The place could be cleaner, I know they always busy but their menus were sticky, and some food was kicked around the floor 🫤 The place is costly too. On a dinner for two you will spend around £50. A bit expensive for not a great experience.
