Stamford Street

Amazing chicken and well seasoned. Great service by Dee and delicious desserts as well. will definitely visit again!. Thank YOU Deee!

Seating time was good. Services barely was exciting. GANGA WAS AMAZING IN REPLACING OUR COLD CAFE. MANAGED WERE VERY DOWN TO EARTH.

Despite working pretty close to Stamford Street, I’d never been to its Nando’s before. This changed on Monday night when I suggested a quick bite at Nando’s as a joke, which resulted in us actually going there. Mid way between Waterloo and Blackfriars stations, this branch is probably easy to miss unless you happen to use Stamford Street as a through route. My girlfriend was worried we wouldn't get a table at 6pm on a work day, but needn't have been.

I found myself in central London and my friend and I were craving a Nandos. We had been at an event at the 02, but the Nando's there had a massive queue and we couldn't be bothered to wait. As we needed to get back to Waterloo to get the train home, we headed there and then used the Nando's App to find the nearest branch (what did we do without the Nando's App?!?!).

A bright Nandos with open glass front. Welcomed by a friendly host, having been to other Nandos ordered straight away and tried the new drumstick starter with Prego steak Wrap. The food was amazingly good and my chips came piping hot. The food was over in 5 mins the starter was there virtually as I returned from ordering. The restaurants art is very interesting, especially the barrels on the wall.

If you have a good sense of direction you'll probably find this branch within ten minutes of exiting Waterloo station. If you're like me however, you'll walk up and down Waterloo road before realising you're on the wrong street then check street maps for the destination. Just to let you know it's down the road where Kings college is on the right hand side...

Came to this Nando's on Saturday evening just before 6pm - and it was very quiet, only a couple of tables in use. Being in London for the weekend, I was on the tube so didn't pay any attention to the parking - but probably N/A.

It was the date of the contributor's dinner for the month of September and this was the easiest London Nando's I had ever gone to (It was literally a few minutes walk from Waterloo - no tube or anything!).

The decor was again very different to other outlets I had seen and truly encapsulated its own identity which is nice to see in a chain - that carried over to the seating too! All in all, it felt like a comfortable place to sit down and chat with my fellow Nandistadors!

From Co-Founder Marc:

I was deeply disappointed to miss the raffle. The timing of the event was somewhat inconvenient for workers such as myself who have an undefined termination time for the working day. Looking forward to the next event nevertheless.

Very nicely done Nandos, quite a large restaurant, nearest underground station is Waterloo. Lots of bars nearby.

I've now had some experience parking in the area and can advise that parking in the evenings is actually quite easy in the back streets around Southwark. You can also pay around £4 an hour for street parking if you want during the day, though finding a space can be difficult.

I've been to this branch a couple of times now and this was by far the best visit yet. It seems the teething troubles I experienced early on have now disappeared, with a much tighter ship being run.

My last day in a Nando's speaking country for a few months was marked by a visit to a new branch for me and overall I was rather impressed.
The exterior of the building where Stamford Street Nando's is found is quite unique with colourful panes all the way across and up the building.

I had hoped to be the first to review this one but I was beaten… Grrrr… After getting lost by going the wrong way while trying to find it, I eventually got there... It’s easy to find from Waterloo Underground Station if you’re not stupid... Like me, just turn left when you come out and walk past the big IMAX and you’ll find it eventually.
