Comments - Stand out in our monthly competition! What did you eat? Unique aspects? Parking/transport tips?: 

As a HUGE fan of Nando's I have to say I was very disappointed with this relatively new restaurant on a trip to slough visiting family.

This restaurant is more modern than other nando's I had been too with nice decor and features (but I missed the 'homely' feel of the other nando's). The toilets were dirty and out of paper, and all of the sauce bottles were sticky/greasey.

I tried to engage one of the managers (Pedero) in conversation, but he was seemingly more interesting in flirting with one of the waitresses.

Food arrived in standard Nando's time, but half of my chips were limp and cold, and seemed to have been mixed in with some fresh ones. Chicken was nice but could have done with a little more sauce - the little that was there seemed to have dried on.

I'd maybe use this store again for something quick and simple (like a pitta or wrap) while shopping as it is conveniently located, with reasonably priced parking, but would not make a special trip to return here anytime soon!
