Peri Peri chicken is what this place is known for. It's a South African chain that specializes in a Portuguese style chicken with African bird's eye chili. In fact, they offer at least ten different levels and flavors of the peri peri sauce. I liked the extra extra hot one that is in a black bottle. Chicken is charbroiled in front of your eyes as well! I chose the 1/4th chicken with two sides, which was more than enough. Got the supergrain one that had quinoa and a few types of beans with a zesty cream sauce. Loved it, but was so stuffed after eating the 1/4lb chicken. It was a huge thigh with crisped skin and was marinated beforehand, giving it such juiciness! If you come towards closing time, you may get an extra piece of extra hot chicken like my friend did. read more

This Nando's is located in Mile End, East London, with it being the nearest store with delivery to Canary Wharf, I ordered from here to my hotel, Lincoln Plaza Hilton after a great day where I watched my team Manchester City smash Watford 6-0 to lift the FA Cup. The ordering system on the website was quite buggy, but they did allow allergy orders to be processed as long as you phoned up to speak to a manager first, I did this and the manager seemed really friendly and helpful. The price for delivery is far too high, my standard meal cost is £11.75, they not only charged a much higher delivery charge compared to other systems of £2.50 but a further £2 as my order wasn't over £15 before delivery. The food arrived quite quickly which was a bonus with the Nando's delivery driver, but the food its-self was really bad quality, firstly the chips were so greasy, they were soggy, wet, bland and horrible to the point they were just inedible and the fact they included no napkins or cutterly or seasoning, just made matters worse. (Luckily I got something from my hotel bar) The chicken was also in a horrible box, which couldn't possibly be used to eat from, perhaps it was a mixture of it being poor quality and the chicken being greasy, the chicken tasted a little chewy and bland too, and on its' own without the inedible chips, just made it worse. From awful, greasy food quality at sky-high prices, if you even think of having it delivered, while also missing out on spending and redeeming loyalty points to a buggy online ordering process which crashed two times when I tried to place my order, this Nando's branch certainly isn't true representation of a chain I know and love and I'm a regular of, and Nando's Mile End is an insult to the Nando's name, reputation and brand and surely deserves a single one-star rating. read more

Nando's - Medium Chicken Butterfly £11.75 with 2 sides + Delivery fees of £4.50 - Chicken Shop Near Me - London, XGL

Never met a Nando's that I didn't like. Visited them first in Africa while on vacation then in America and Canada. This location is pretty similar to all others. Tasty sides and grilled chicken with a delicious and sauce both available very hot and tasty. Good, friendly order takers. read more

LOVE LOVE LOVE NANDOS!!!!! I was first introduced by a friend I met in South Africa and was told this place has pretty good spicy chicken. So i went to check it out and literally fell in love. So when I arrived to London and saw that they have Nandos here i got so excited this was the first place I stopped as soon As I left the airport. I usually order 1/4 of chicken with 2 sides.You can also customize your chicken with different Peri Peri sauces. I usually order mine with Hot peri peri sauce. This chicken is full flavor and the pepper hot like fire but i love it and can't stop eating it. For my 2 sides I get fries and side of corn on the cob. Fries are really good with their ketchup which is also a bit sweet. I can totally see myself coming back here very soon. I just wish they had Nandos in the states. read more

Come in here for a cheeky Nando's all the time. Right across from Mile End Station so when it's raining and dark and I'm too lazy to cook when I get home, Nando's is here waiting for me. It's pretty busy because of the university but that also means it's pretty fast too. Service is always really friendly which makes it a pleasant experience. I'm also prone to getting a cheeky takeaway here too (because you can do that!) read more

Halloumi sticks were ok, red pepper dip and chicken was really good. Service was fairly consistent. I like the free refills on drinks. Although it's a chain restaurant, it's still pretty good. read more

Despite being a chain, this restaurant has both high cleanliness standards and staff that appear at least to be genuine when asking if everything is ok. I was politely served and the food was of the consistent good quality associated with Nandos. The location is especially good being within 100m of Mile End tube. Oh yes I visited the toilets again which were of high cleanliness. read more

Nando's, I'm sure you have heard of it if you live in the UK. I am writing a review because I was there for the first time a couple of weeks ago, and it wasn't at all what I was expecting, in a good way. So I had to write about it in case you're like me and live near one, never go in, thinking you know what it's about. The set up, you get a table, choose your meal go to the counter, order and pay (great for when you are with a group, no bills to divide). Then you get your drinks from the machine (free refills on soft drinks), choose your salad dressing, sauces and head back to your table. I went to the Nando's at Mile End in particular, this location is a large bright restaurant, over 2 floors. The staff were friendly and helpful and our meal arrived quickly, though I wasn't there at a particularly busy time. The food was so much better than I was expecting. I had the medium wings, a mixed leaf salad, and the house red wine. The wings were flame grilled and cooked perfectly, just enough char to know it was grilled on a flame and give it that extra bit of character. The medium PERi-PERi was flavourful, hot enough to give it some kick while allowing the PERi-PERi flavours to come through. The salad was fresh, crisp and mixed well and the house dressing complimented it perfectly. You can tell that Nando's sources their food carefully, and keeps the quality of the ingredients high. This is why I am so impressed with Nando's, such great food at such high quality and the prices are still so reasonable. It is definatly great value for money and I look forward to going back. read more

A very good Nando's. Food was of a good quality and Nando's always do a great job in regards to cleanlieness. In regards to this visit in particular I'd like to give some props to the staff. They were really attentive and genuinely nice towards not just me and my friend but all the customers. This obviously can't be said for every staff team for a chain restaurant so well done to this branch in particular. "Why you giving it 4?" Alright go easy on me but- Actually let me set the scene first. Me and my friend are in halls nearby, we both decide (rather spontaneously) that we want Nando's (don't you love when this happens). We both recall memories a few years back about how we could manage the "medium" heat but always struggled with "hot". Well on this occasion we decided it was time to test our wits. Some Nando's strategy talk is about to occur so get ready. I've been told by Nando's veterans the game theory optimal move is to order the "heat/spice" as "Lemon and Herb" and then add the hot sauce on top. That way you get the flavour from the lemon and herb as well as the spice from the sauce. With that out the way, we order and our food arrives. We start off low down the scale with some medium sauce. "This isn't as bad as we remember it?" Then we go to hot. "Dude this isn't even bad?" Extra hot. Huh, I thought my mouth would be burning but it's not. "Add more sauce on you mugs" That's exactly what we did. Huh it's really not bad dude. Then we opted for the small black bottle, the extra extra hot sauce. Wasn't even bad either. Okay so we legit didn't find any of it that spicey. I put this down to a couple of reasons. 1) We didn't order the original heat as hot/extra hot etc so as a result we got a lower overall heat. Don't worry we're going sometime again this week and plan to order our chicken hot and give some feedback then. 2) Some Nando's have different levels of spice and as a result may be hotter when you have it at one place compared to another. Pretty dodgy sauce but yeah. Anyway, it's a good Nando's. read more

Great food and great service as expected. I'm not too adventurous when it comes to food but the plates my family ordered looked so incredible I'm thinking of branching out from my normal chicken wraps :p I love Nando's and this one was no different. To anyone that hasn't been before; Garlic sauce, or the lime one. So goooooood! read more

I love Nando's! Spanish food is one of my favorite and the food at this place is just what I like. The restaurant is perfect for a quick meal on busy days. You don't need to wait for your food to be served and stuff is friendly. Nando's wraps and pittas are good alternative for the classical hamburger or sandwich. Choose prego steak roll if you like beef. Roll is juicy and meat is well-prepared. You won't regret going there! read more

Got takeaway from here today and I live very locally (so the problem isn't to do with the food getting cold). The chicken was grilled horribly, with barely any sauce (we wanted extra hot). It shouldn't be as pale as it was. The bread that came with the hummus was basically uncooked. Everything was barely cooked. Complete waste of money to be honest. read more

I had the chicken. It tasted good going down, but about 3 hours, I was puking followed by diarrhea, all night. The chicken must have been bad or miss handled. My suggestion, DON'T EAT HERE. Run before you get the runs. read more

I love a bit of Nandos chicken but I'm not a fan of this branch. The layout is not great, the tables are crammed in so you are pretty much on top of the people next to you. Ask for another table if they try to seat you near the kitchen gangway as the staff rush past you making your meal uncomfortable. I know it's a fast food chain but it would be nice if staff didn't clear away plates while half the table are eating. Other than that the chicken is as good as any other Nandos. read more

I am not a crazy fan of Nandos so sorry only 3 stars. This one has a lot of students coming in. Because Queen Mary is just opposite the road. Friendly staff and delicious chicken as always. read more

The food was good, but this place seems a bit hyped up. One of the people I was with is very allergic to gluten and she asked for a burger without a bun and was treated very rudely and ended up ordering something else because of it. Another person I was with ordered just chicken and waited close to an hour for her food. For the price I expected a little more, and I don't plan on going back. read more
