In general, when I come to the restaurant, which seems to be overstated when you talk about Nandos, I expect my food to be hot, especially if the restaurant is not busy. Also, ffs, do something with your bathrooms. There is actual mould and holes in the sealing. It looks disgusting and feels the same. 1 star from me. You're just like Brexit—lacking on every level these days.

we Had a waitress named Linda, she was so welcoming and polite and really helped with settling the children into seats with colouring options. She was accurate with our order, and also very fast whilst maintaining great customer service throughout our time in the restaurant. Cannot fault the service at all

The food was ok! Staff were a bit glum but as expected. No parking spots available and had park 3 roads down. Had half chicken with slightly cold chips and dry coleslaw! Won't be visiting there again!

Need to start doing these reviews sooner after visiting because my memory goes all hazy otherwise!

Having started a new job in the City the previous week, I fancied a Nando's for lunch - but I know from previous experience how horrendous One New Change is (the nearest one) so I decided to hop on the Central Line from St. Paul's to Bethnal Green and pick up a pre-ordered Nando's. It was both a good and bad choice...

this was an experience to forget as we were left waiting for a long time before we actually received our food. the food was mediocre and didnt amaze our taste buds which was surprising as we were fasting on this day. the restaurant itself was very small and cramped. there were too many people around us which made us feel a little uncomfortable. the table we sat at was way too small and the room itself was dark and miserable.

One of the best restaurants so far this year, haha!

Got there just before seven, Cydnie let us pick a decent table right by the cutlery stuff and was very nice during the food ordering process. Knew what she was doing and was very helpful and smiley happy, she's definitely got the Nando's spirit!

We ventured out to the Bethnal Green by tube. it's very easy to find from the station. if you pass MacDonalds you are heading the right way. it was very quiet and we had a choice of areas to sit. the lovely staff advised the back of the restaurant was colder as the heater was broken for that area. Cyndie took my order. she was very very smiley and pleasant. the food arrived after 10 minutes. I must say this is the best level of spicing I've had.

This store in the run down area of Bethnal Green is a real uplift in the neighborhood, after being propositioned on the way in it was refreshing how nice the place was inside, the staff were friendly the decor was quite standard though it was clean. Compact and bijou is definitely the phrase for this store. Outside there was a two person table and chairs set up under the bright vivid red canopy and sunshade.

As I was coming from Whitechapel I had the short stroll to Bethnal Green, otherwise it's just a five minute walk from either Bethnal Green tube stop or train station.

It was getting onto 7pm at this point and again another street market was being packed away and Nando's is nestled amongst all the stalls and canopies. It's a bit of a shame as the Nando's canopy blocks quite a bit of light into the restaurant.

This Nando's isn't in the nicest of areas, and it's hard to see what it would be conveniently placed for other than if you live in the area. It is however a short (5 minute) walk from the tube station, and just across the road from a bus stop which has buses from The City every few minutes. I hopped on a number 8 from Bank and was in the Nando's within 15 minutes. The people I was with were heading to a comedy club in Shoreditch after, which is apparently only a 20 minute walk away.

I enjoyed my visit to this Nando's even though the surrounding areas are not particularly special. The location is actually rather convenient as Bethnal Green Central Line station is a 5 minute walk and Shoreditch is only 7 or 8 minutes away in the other direction. If you are planning a Wednesday evening visit to the Comedy Cafe on Rimington Street, this Nando's is well placed for you to have a chance to walk off your food before ths free stand up starts.
