Grand Central Shopping Centre

Halal:

Nearby: 
New Street Station is below Grand Central Shopping Centre.
Parking: 
As with most Centres though, the further out you can park, the cheaper it is - and those that are well-signposted are the most expensive. For example, parking at The Mailbox is £2.50/1hr, £5/2hrs, £6.50/3hrs and up from there. Edgbaston Street is £1.50/1hr, £4/2hrs, £6/3hrs and up. New Street is £2.50/hr. If you are familiar to Birmingham and don't mind a 5-10 minute walk into the centre, then park over by Moor Street Station, where places like Coventry Street, New Canal Street and Bordesley Street offer 70p/hr up to maximum of £2.20 all day parking.

Had to wait for half an hour when there was visibly half the tables empty. When the workers were questioned they either avoided eye contact and walked away or said I can’t seat you and walked away without explanation.
Once we were sat down by josh he was incredibly polite and went above and beyond to get us our food quickly and anything else we needed but the rest of the staff were useless and frankly rude.

Went for lunch and had a good experience. We were welcomed by Noreen, she showed us our table and ensured we were familiar with the menu. After the food came she made sure everything was fine. We were very impressed by the friendliness and service and felt very comfortable. Excellent service and we look forward to going there again. John.

I've been to plenty of Nando's restaurants but I thought I'd start my first review at this one. I love Nandos, it's just the best restaurant that there is! This was my eighth visit to Grand Central. For us, the food was your bog standard Nandos. Ordered my usual, four thighs, peri chips and mash. All medium with the sauce. The chips were perfect, as usual but the thighs wern't up to scratch. A little dry but once the sauce was applied, it was good. I've given it a 3 out of five for the food.

It was my third time in Nandos Grand Central and I really wanted to receive good service without any issues. The only reason why I was going to that branch is because its closer to Bullring Shoping centre than branch in Mailbox which is amazing. Anyway, I arrived with my partner into restaurant and had to wait again 10 min for a table even when we saw few empty tables. I don't understand why every single time we have to wait even if there are empty tables???!!

A lovely afternoon speaking to modern languages students at the University of Birmingham was rounded off with a decent Nando's in the incredible Grand Central, which has blessed New Street station with a makeover and a whole host of brand new shops and restaurants.

Unfortunately this is the first bad experience I have had at a Nando's restaurant. They forgot to bring some of our order out and I couldn't get any of the staff's attention due to the fact they were all stood on their phones. The portion sizes were awful nothing compared to every other restaurant I'd been to.

I prefer this nandos to the other nando's. Because I like the way certain people grilling the chicken cook it. But ever since they've changed the staff. The service is going down hill and the manager needs to learn how to crack a smile. Very rude and speaking to her staff rudely. I don't work there so whether they are not doing the job properly or not, as a manager you take that role on and you still are respectful.

After the major disappointment of heading to Paradise forum which no longer exists lead there as it is still active on this site unlike my Cypriot stores. I headed into town and a lady in the Halifax told me that the best Nandos near by was the Grand central one. Whilst I don't normally like stores in shopping centres this one was surprisingly good.

The meal was nice, to the point that I forgot my phone on the table, thanks to Lungi who ran after me and gave me back my phone.

We had the wings platter which was amazing.
Everything about my experience at this bands was great the presentation of the food and service I received from Abi (one of the staff) was great I want to thank her for making my first time at this particular nandos an enjoyable one.

This a new store following the recent construction of the new, New Street Station Complex.

My first visit was a little bit of a disappointment, though the customer service following my feedback was brilliant. Therefore, I returned last week and thoroughly enjoyed the meal!!

Food was cooked to perfection and the branch was extremely clean and hygienic. Staff were smiling and made an effort to check all was ok with our table.

Very impressed, I clucking loved it!

A gorgeous hostess to greet you and a bright, fresh, clean new Nando's. What more could you ask for at 11.30 on a Monday morning?

7 minutes waiting time for amazing food, the sweet mash was still steaming as the waiter brought it over. I had a 1/4 chicken mango and lime with a portion of halloumi alongside the mash and it was a very good breakfast meal. The mash was flavoured really well and the chicken portion was a decent size.

Being away I wasn't able to visit this one on opening day - but finally got round to it on the second Friday night it was open. It's in the up-market new Grand Central shopping centre, which is above New Street Station (where The Pallasades used to be). It means it's easy to get to by train (obviously) and there are also plenty of car parks around the City Centre.

Quite frankly, this was an absolutely astonishing Nando's visit. Several reasons to this, most notably that it was a) unexpected and b) the new Grand Central complex in which it's located is incredible!

I don't normally review dry run meals, but this was great so I thought I would anyway!
