Had been to this Nandos many years ago and it was reasonable. It appears there are new owners now and it's possibly the worst Nandos I've ever been to. Burgers arrived stone cold. When we complained they took them out the back and microwaved them. None of the food that was ready and waiting was put under lights, it just sat there getting cold while they kept all their uber eats orders under the lights. Chips were terrible.

As a restaurant good customer relations is important. Almost non existent tonight 2 staff members carried on there work and completely ignored us standing there waiting to be at least asked would you like a seat and table.
Sorry won't be back.

The toilets could've used a clean. Great food! We we're very satisfied. Would like to see more variety of beers on the menu.
