We had been waiting for a very long time for our food. Katy who served us noticed this and we didn't have to ask. She asked the kitchen about our food and unfortunately they had just started it, at this point we had been waiting about 40 minutes for our food, it felt like they had forgotten.

Wouldn’t eat at this branch again.
Not a very informative welcome just pointed to a table. Wasn’t even told how to order or asked if I’d been before.
The “fizzy drinks” were completely flat and even when changed no different. I asked to change to another drink and was told manager said no!!
I wasn’t even offered my money back for the drinks.

The hosts were fab.. Its the first time I have seen a customer asked to put mask on and when they said I don't have to wear one the staff member asked to see thier exempt card... The person quickly found a mask... There's a surprise.
This was amazing to witness.. The young girl had balls!!! And it made me, as a eating customer feel safe and valued.
Go Nandos...!!!!!

Was on my way to an event at the nearby bowling alley and decided to pop in for a cheeky Nando’s beforehand since normally his Nando’s is very good, my experience started off well being quickly seating in a quite busy restaurant despite being on my own, I ordered a single breast burger and chips as per usual and then waited… unfortunately the food didn’t arrive for a staggering 40 minutes which was unprecedented in my visits to various Nando’s.

Excellent food and service. However when we ate at this restaurant we did not realise we were eating halal meat. As Christians this placed us in a very difficult position. This practice is both cruel and unnecessary and as the meat is prayed over, it is unacceptable to us.

As soon as we arrived we were welcomed by a member of staff I think her name was 'Leah' although I attend this nandos on a regular basis today seemed more welcoming than before because of her being so friendly and polite. Thanks for the great welcome Leah!

Amazing service from an amazing team! I was greeted at the door by Leah who was very bubbly and polite always seemed to be helping others!
Tried the new brownies and they were delicious, was recommended on the tills to have that with the ice cream and the girl was right about how nice it was. Can't remember her name really short and looked like she's just come from holidays.

This Nando's visit was carefully calculated as an ideal stop-off on the long London-Swansea route for the Arsenal match. This restaurant is close to the M4 and has plenty of free parking right outside the Nando's which is located in a leisure centre with bowling and various other eateries nearby.

Last Sunday, three friends and I headed towards Swansea to watch our beloved Arsenal play. En route, we developed a real hankering for chicken, and rather than risk the match day rush in Swansea, we decided to disembark the m4 in a place we had never heard of, let alone knew how to pronounce, to get our fix. The restaurant was situated in a leisure complex, alongside several fast food outlets, a cinema, a bowling alley and a very large car park.

Don't even need to look at the menu any more because I cannot get enough of the chicken breast fillet burger (no spice because I'm a baby) with a side of chips! I should actually stop writing this now because It's making me hungry just thinking about it. The staff are always so friendly and never fail to ask if we have ever been to Nando's before to make sure we know what delicious world we're about to step into.

My wife and I went here after being in the cinema.
Large purpose built building on a large entertainment park with few fast food outlets, large bowling alley, lovely cinema complex and loads and loads of easy parking. Easily accessible from all local areas and villages.

Called at this store with our Lacrose team and was pleased that not only is it well conected in transport links between Pontypridd and Caerphilly but has a large carpark that services the showcase cinema, macdonalds, frankie and bennies as well as other stores on the edge of Treforest industrial estate.

The exterior is that of a showcase Nandos which is distinctive and the decoration and design almost identical to the showcase's at coventry or sheffield and elsewhere.

Had lunch at this Nando's on the very wet May Bank Holiday - so was certainly hoping to be warmed up by the food! :-)

It's located on a retail park with a Showcase Cinema, a Bowplex and other eateries (like Frankie and Bennys/McDonald's), so there's other stuff to do around here. Easy to find - and hundreds of free parking spaces, so all good there.

As a frequent customer, we are always recognised and welcomed excellently! Service is incredibly quick, and the food is never to fault (unless you visit at the wrong time and they are awaiting delivery) but options are always available and they give recommendations if you are unsure about the menu!
