So sad. I am a big Nando’s fan but this restaurant is old, untidy, unclean and, above all, understaffed. Only two members of staff, doing the best they could but not enough.

Food was alright (standard, butterfly chicken was quite dry though) and staff was very friendly and welcoming. Alaa greeted us professionally and was very attentive. However, I noticed how dirty the restaurant is. It's in desperate need of professional deep cleaning as one can notice dirt caked into the walls and floors, and a few cobwebs around.

Nando's 111!!!!!!!!!!!

Despite being really huge and taking up two floors, this branch only has about 25 tables inside to seat the guests. Got here about half 5, no waiting as my friend already hacked a table. Ordered easy enough a whole chicken mango and lime, large peri chips and sweet mash.. No this wasn't all for me unfortunately. Haha

I was in Epsom for the evening and my nearest non-visited Nando's from here was now a 40-minute drive or so away... so I did what any sensible person would do and caught the train with the vision to getting some use out my travelcard... and going to three Nando's... yes, sounds very sensible indeed.

This store is on the corner of a very busy interchange a short stroll away from Clapham Junction with a great deal of shops from Primark to TKMAX surrounding it. The store is elongated and thin along the corner entering away from the corner you are faced by the till area and a impressive tiled wall. Seating continues in booths along the window into the corner. Narrow stairs lead upstairs to more booth seating and the toilets at the far end.

I had a nice Nando's at Northcote Road branch on a Saturday night. We came quite late and the food took a while to come, but the server told us so it was expected. The salad I ordered was tasty, but the lemon and herb chicken was a little spicier than I am used to. Decoration is a bit odd, with the branch being in a long layout. They were making people wait but there were tables free upstairs.
