Nando's

[dickythorpe]

What is your favourite on the menu?
Only been once. Is it still sagres in bottles or draught beer?

Chicken.

 

[Darran]

Never been in one.

 

[MrSwerve]

Massively overrated. Chicken in spices, bit of spicy rice and various sauces.

Nice but people go on as if it’s Mecca. Mostly younger folk.

 

[Jack2jack]

Is it only chicken on the menu, never frequented.. What's the prices like, reasonable?

 

[Neath_Jack]

Going for a cheeky Nando's.

Pile of wank.

Last time I went to Nando’s my mates wife was heavily pregnant with their first kid, who’s 13 now. I’m in no rush to break that duck.

My grandad doesn't like chicken.
Nan does...

I've only been a handful of times in my life and not for a good few years now. It's perfectly acceptable food, but nothing special. A step above fast food or chain pub food and a decent choice when you've only got limited time before your film starts or something. Nothing more than that.

I have the feeling they've benefited from a number of people (I don't want to use the word influencer because fuck that) deciding it's cool and being happy to say so. Lots of others have rushed to do the same to try and get some of that popularity themselves or to avoid looking 'uncool'. Anyone who genuinely thinks it's good food has probably not eaten at a very wide variety of places.

I think it's OK, and to be fair it's always consistent, and a good place for a family meal I think. I had one once before boarding a flight in OR Tambo airport in South Africa, and found out that the extra hot there is wayyyyy hotter than here! As I was tucking in, my head was stinging. I think Nando's may have originated in SA?

Nandos is perfectly fine if you like piri-piri grilled chicken. It’s pricey for what you get but reliable and a step up from a Wetherspoons, or some such similar choice.

Think Wagamama’s, Wahaca, Zizzi, etc. Generic attempts at regional/street food, reliable.
