The manger and one of his waiters treated us very badly and then calked the security man to force us to leave just because we have given very bad place to sit and wanted to change our table.

Nando's Cheltenham is the best Nando's by far. It's even more fast and convenient than a fast food restaurant, but with the quality and service of a decent restaurant. Love the halloumi sticks and tasty rainbow salad (and feels pretty guilt free too!) You always feel welcome and greeted with a huge smile (big shout out to Will and Harry who served me today!) Ordered and collected in less than 5 minutes. Amazing.

I sat at table number 2 with my brother and sat to order food. we ordered a starter each and 1/4 chicken with 2 sides which came at reasonable time and was waited on by a pleasant young lady. I was almost certain that I ordered two refillable drinks for our table, which came in the smaller size glass. I called the nearest member of staff to our table to query this issue, then spoke A very negative man named Trent Morgan ‘claimed supervisor’ at Cheltenham Nando’s restaurant.

Everything was fine but I can say that ordering via that scan code on the table was horrendous to eventually have to ask someone to take my order. I’m in my 20s very competent at tech but this portal is terrible when it comes checking out. You should have a guest option for ease of ordering. I am now put off coming back here no matter the good quality of food and service. This could be an easy fix.

Curtis in the Cheltenham branch was extremely friendly and ensured he got us a table! He was very willing to help and made our Nando’s experience very enjoyable!

We had a lovely meal, chicken, corn, the spectacular rice along with chips, comes and olives, wow, so yummy, very reasonable and a great place to bring children in a nice environment which won't break the bank.

The server Justin was really good he was friendly and very reliable for peri salt and sauces - I am hopefully going to come back again. He was welcoming and the man who greeted us was very helpful and gave us a table very quickly. The long table was very good and meant we could all sit together. The service was exceptional and didn't take at all long for our food, table or dessert.

The member of staff that always sticks out is a gentleman called Adam. He is so friendly and always so attentive. Really makes you feel welcome. Give him a pay rise or make him a manager ;) always good to see staff going that extra mile. He's a credit to your company.

This was a nearly perfect Nando's! It should be said that the timing meant that fast service was always likely as only 2 or 3 other tables were in use when I ordered at around 4.30 after seeing The Hypochondriac at the Everyman Theatre which was great fun.

Had the wrap with mango and lime - very nice. My Son had double chicken burger medium - he loved it - would have been too hot for me. As it was a lovely evening, the large door/windows were open. Gave it a lovely holiday feel, as we were sat right there :)

This store is part of the Brewery complex. Second time I have been to this store, am sure I wrote a review the first time but can't find it on the site so have come back.

Parking is £3 for 2 hours 24/7 or there is a cheaper car park over the road a short distance away.

I have only been here a few times, but am moving to the locality soon and have found this Nandos to be one of the best. I always have chats with the staff and they even reserved me a table of 20 on a Thursday night for my birthday. Food is always good and I rate this as one of my favourites

Was out in the Cotswolds and there's some beautiful little cafes and restaurants - but none that serve peri-peri! Jumped in the car and headed for The Brewery Shopping Centre - £2.50 for 2 hours, so not too expensive at all and the car park is just over the road from the centre. Looks like quite a modern place - and a Cineworld is next door too.

Arrived at about 2:30pm today - and it was pretty quiet in there, maybe only a fifth full, so was seated straight away.

I have been to this Nandos dozens of times and it has always been very good, top notch. We alweays have 20x wings when we go to Nandos and 99% of the time all is good, they are perfect. However, this time the CURSE OF THE LARGER WING struck again. We first experienced the LARGER WING in bristol about 6 weeks ago when the wings were badly undercooked (v pink/red meat.. have photo). Since then we have had half dozen Nando visits with NORMAL size wings and no prob. But..

Nice views of sweaty fitness fanatics in the gym opposite. It gave me a larger appetite!
