Nandos

Very busy during Friday evenings with no opportunity to pre book. The wait time can be up to 30 min sometimes. I am a big fan of Nandos and I just love the veggie pitta, but unfortunately I often have to send it back as it is never hot enough. It is only warm. I do specify this at the time of ordering that it must be hot. It hardly ever is though. So I have to wait for burger number 2 while my husbands meal is perfect and has arrived already. Very nice staff.

Nando’s is awesome! Friendly staff, good food, great atmosphere and all reasonably priced!
My favorite dish is the Portobello Mushroom and Grilled Halloumi Cheese…
Burger — nice but i find the burger a bit hard and the contents tend to fall out
Pita — mmmmmm yummy, soft and beautiful
Wrap — good but you have to pay a bit extra and you get the same amount of halloumi cheese and mushroom in it as you would in the pita option.
I’ve tried the veggie burger and the beanie burger, but they pale in comparison. So in conclusion the Portobello Mushroom and Grilled Halloumi Cheese pita is the winner! …although that might be due to my love of cheese.
Also great for people with special dietary needs. I turned veggie 7 years ago, and this was the first meat serving restaurant i went to, so i emailed the store manager at this Shirley branch to see if they could provide me with an allergen menu, i was pleasantly surprised to get a response to be honest! The manager replied with a allergen list, but also a list of the ingredients in the sauces so i could see which ones contained egg. He also assured me that there is a separate vegetarian grill, excellent customer service… and i haven’t stopped going back since.
