A few minutes walk from the existing Peel Centre. It means there's an Odeon and Cineworld now almost next to each other just a couple minutes walk from Nando's. Bracknell train station is just a few minutes walk from Nando's.
Parking: 
You can park in the Peel Centre for surface parking for free for 2 hours (3hrs/£1.50, 4hr/£2.50, 4+hrs/£10) or parking at the train station is cheaper than any of the council town centre car parks priced at 1hr/£1.00, 2hrs/£2.00, 3hrs/£3.00 and 3hrs+/£5.00.

My 12 year old wanted chicken wings and chips. but as an extra side wanted cucumber, which were only available with the kids menu. I asked when I ordered it and was advised NO, i cant get cucumber as a side. I requested that I can pay for it, and was told NO. I asked for a supervisor which he confirmed what I was told previously, I asked why cant I pay for some cucumber literally 6 pieces, he said there isn't a button on the till.

As a frequent Nandos food lover, l was blown away by the Nandoes in Bracknell. Travelled down from Gloucestershire to celebrate my birthday with my family. A restaurant that suits even the fussiest of eaters. This is by far the best Nandos!! Food was deliciously hot. Macaroni cheese has the "Wow factor" Family platter was excellent value for money as was our whole meal to be honest! Staff asked about Allergens, curtersy check, customer care and service was second to none.

Staff member dropped a knife on my back, didn’t hurt it was just unexpected. my food was delivered with burnt chips and missing my glass for a re fillable drink so I had to ask for it when it usually gets brought to the table once ordered. friend asked for no peri-peri ketchup in her burger, staff member said it doesn’t come with it but came with the sauce when brought to the table. not an amazing experience but would go again if I needed to.

Our server Marissa at the restaurant was incredibly helpful, friendly and engaging. She helped seat us in a quieter area since my autistic child cannot be in a noisy environment. She was great with the kids and very accommodating all round. Nothing was a big deal to her, our comfort and happiness was her main concern. This was our first visit in 4 years and we left wanting to go back next time we dine out thanks to our experience.

Genuinely one of my best ever Nando's! Bracknell Nando's was opened in 2017 and is certainly eye-catching in a way that trumps all other Nando's I've visited! The building has planters within the wooden exterior and it looks incredible!

Once you head inside, it continues! The lighting is stunning, the downstairs is spacious and well laid out, while the toilets are upstairs with another large seating area. There's also a living wall with Barcelos-shaped moss proudly on display.

I had an incredible time at this Nando's. Now that I'm nearly three, I'm really starting to appreciate the intricacies of different Nando's and what makes each one so individual and special, or is that just what Daddy keeps saying?

Had a brilliant time at the Nandos in Bracknell, we were served by a really superb and very friendly waitress called Marissa! Marissa’s service honestly made our whole experience the best we have ever had so far in any Nando’s restaurant - she was just a star and really made us feel at home! Everything from the food to the service was just top notch, made even better by the staff. Overall we had a really great experience!

I was really disappointed with the service at our local nandos in Bracknell town centre last Sunday. We sat down at our table and found there was no malt vinegar at the sauce station and no plates. We asked a staff member for malt vinegar which she replied they had none in quite a rude manner. I then asked if she can have a look around to check if there are any free ones on the tables, she did this but with a sigh.

Came here with lots of colleges for a work meal. Altogether there must have been around 20 of us. Staff were very quick and efficient to move tables around to fit us all in, putting our comfort first.

This Nando's is in the new addition to the Lexicon centre in Bracknell town centre. There's an array of choice for foods and stores - and it's also a few minutes walk from the existing Peel Centre. It means there's an Odeon and Cineworld now almost next to each other. Bracknell train station is just a few minutes walk from Nando's.

This store is in the new Lexicon shopping precinct that Bracknell has built over top and with the purpose of forgetting it's previous 60s monstrosity of a town centre. Very new it looks impressive at present but many stores are not occupied yet and being modern I hope it doesn't age fast. Well provisioned with a cinema, Waitrose, marks and sparks and a Sainsburys along with many food outlets from mc Donald to Tangs buffet.
