Quite partial to their veggieburger myself. Extra hot, no mayo, with chips. Thanks.

Ask if you can choke your own before they cook it.
I'd steer clear of their non chicken related menu.

mmmmm I like a veggieburger too any one else?

dunno but i was kinda glad of the hot sauce to kill my taste buds - perhaps just the one in union square but seemed tough chewy overcooked or reheated chicken imo ....but then i dont like any of my meat cooked to within an inch of catching on fire

Half chicken hot for me. The chips and rice are lovely, but if you order macho peas instead it's idave compliant.

Medium chicken burger with chips and coleslaw
Add a bit of the hot sauce to the chips.

Add as much chilli sauce as you can, that way you'll disguise the flavour of their vile food.

Is the chicken burger a bit tasteless like they can be sometimes like KFC?

Vile food? It's chicken with a sauce over it, and has worked fine every time i've been.
Get peri-peri salt on the chips........ yum!

What an awful "restaurant" - poor food and you have to collect your own cutlery. No idea why it's so popular.

Chicken piri piri is a lovely dish, but has very little in common with the muck they serve in Nando's.
Posted 4 months ago # -
Which bit's muck? The simple chicken or the simple sauce? As I said before, my (obviously uneducated) taste buds have never had any issues with Nando's

I go for half a chicken extra hot with rice and chips.
If you like chicken you will like Nando's

The chicken was rubbery (I'm guessing because it's intensively produced and pre-cooked) and the sauce was over-sweetened and gloopy. I was going to say that it's not bad value, but there's a Portugeuse place near me that does authentic chicken piri piri that is both cheaper and tastier.

I dont think they are trying to portray themselves as fine dining its fast food just better than Mcds (hopefully)
Collect own cutlery means no tip of course (in my book anyway)

Surely thats a chinese place that serves the rubbery chicken?,,,,,

My chicken there is not usually rubbery.

Only been once and medium was at my limit for hot spiciness. For comparison Jalfrezi is my limit on curry so make your own mind up.
On a slightly different tack I have to love my fellow Stokies. There has been a bit of a debate raging as to whether we need a £300M retail leisure complex building in the city centre. One of the arguments put forward on our local rag forum went something like;
"all you lot who are moaning about a pub being bull-dozed are a bunch of sadoes. It's time Haqnley had some quality eating establishements. I habe to drive all the way to Cheshire Oaks to go to Nandoes, I can't wait for there to be one in Hanley"!
Oh the aspiration!!!

the times I've eaten there the chicken has been awful. Their chips are okay... South African friend thinks very highly of it (good chicken livers apparently) so maybe it's amazing in SA and just not the rest of the world.
Posted 4 months ago # -
i find it ain't what it used to be... but then it never was amazing.
half chciken extra hot bothe sidelines as peri chips 3 extra hot wings too... and a drink.

Imagine a (UK) motor way service station restaurant in the High Street - it's that exciting....

Lot of food snobs on here. It's fine. Just chicken and chips with chili sauce. It won't blow your mind, but it will stop you feeling hungry.

I had their chicken burger with refried beans.
They left through the back door far quicker than the time they spent in the atrium.

If that's all you want, Nando's is exceptionally poor value.

I like Nandos, but it's bloody expensive for what it is!
Went for lunch earlier this week with the missis;
Red pepper dip
chicken wrap, chips, corn
double chicken pitta, chips, corn2 drinks
frozen yogurt
£35!
And the chicken was overcooked

It's alright nothing to get worked up about, I like it, but Im easily pleased
Posted 4 months ago # -
Cant' believe the snobs on here. It's simple and unpretentious, perfectly edible and quite tasty. It's not gourmet food but I don't always want gourmet food.
And when you are hungry in a new city you don't always want to spend ages hunting for the perfect tiny exclusive place, do you?
Posted 4 months ago # -
It's hardly snobbery to point out that a lowest common denominator fast food chain doesn't serve the world's greatest food.
You can get the same food cheaper from a kebab van / late night fast food joint - Nando's is far from original or gourmet...
