Today me and my friends went for a Nando’s at Didcot and was served by a lovely cheerful young man named Henry, Henry without a doubt had all the qualities of a great employee. Polite, presentable, welcoming and nothing was too much of an ask for our Henry. Without a doubt the best service I have ever had at any restaurant let alone Nando’s.

This is a new branch, which should be spotless with a newly trained staff. Nobody greeted me to start with...
There were uncleaned tables and staff chatting to each other ignoring the tables, very dirty tables which looked like cleaned - sticky and with crumbs and pieces of food under the tables.
I observed the waitress and saw her cleaning with a very weird technique: removing the dirt from the table straight on the floor (Polish girl) - shocking!

Second ever visit to a Nando’s and wasn’t disappointed. Great atmosphere, fab decor and delicious food!
Staff were happy,smiling and welcoming and the wait for food was just a few minutes. We will return!

This Nando's is located in the Orchard Centre retail park, which offers hundreds of spaces and free parking for up to 2 hours, the 3rd hour is £1.70 and the 4th hour is 30p extra - with a four hour stay maximum. There's a Cineworld joined onto the retail park but it is anchored by a big Sainsbury's with lots of other shops. Didcot Parkway is less than a 0.5 miles walk from Nando's.
