Me and my partner both came in Monday for a quick lunch, and the loveliest man Fahad greeted us and was extremely attentive, kind and genuinely looked happy to be at work which is so lovely especially as we both work as chefs, we understand how it can be when it’s busy! Fahad deserves a raise and we both would be so lucky to have him on our own teams in our restaurant🥰 On the other hand everyone seemed to be running about and making sure everyone was okay, besides i think Ben? with glasses who practically stood there doing nothing for the whole of our meal, it’s a shame seeing people put everything in to their customers and others don’t make an effort 🤷🏼‍♀️ There was a smaller blonde girl wearing purple who was also lovely and made our day! i think she was some sort of manager? Food was lovely and enjoyed the experience will defo be coming back, Thanks!

My first time and my mums at Nandos for a family meal. Great service and nothing was too much trouble and not badly priced to be fair. Lots of veggie options and we were not disappointed with the food. I will definitely return.

Good service, but considering this is just simple fast food its way overpriced. The sunset burgers getting smaller and smaller and the buns were bone dry. Be used to visit nando's on a regular basis but this was the last time. Just not worth it and there's plenty of competition.

I have had such bad customer service from the Nandos Customer Services,I ordered a delivery and the meal came 1.30hr late and was so damp.soggy I complained and requested a refund/Credit and no chance went on for over month,excuses after escuse they can't see my order,I placed over the phine f9r delivery direct with store ,and I have proof off purchase too from.my bank statement and time date I sent and still that wasn't enough,from End June till September they refused to refund me,this I so bad that I paid for a meal that wasn't satisfactory and they won't refund back,won't be using Naandos again and, I will also write to CEO too,be careful these people only after your money and not admitting that I was failed a meal which I still not credited back.

Busy but brilliant. Queue outside went down quickly. Greeted by a friendly young man who seated us and explained the nando process and how to order (till or app). We ordered via the app. Drinks came quick and our 4 meals followed about 20mins later. All 4 meals were perfect. Well presented, and exactly as we ordered (a few things added and taken away). After a busy afternoon shopping, honestly they nailed it! And I Ioved how we were seated near the kitchen, everyone had blue hair nets on and whilst working fast they clearly had a rhythm with getting lots of meals out! Well done all and thank you! Rare that all 4 of my fussy family get a perfect experience with eating out.

I am not usually one to complain or leave a bad review, however todays experience needs sharing. Myself and my partner were expecting it to be busy, and expecting to wait some time for our food but our visit today was heavily disappointing. When we arrived, we where shown to our table without even being spoken too, no welcome or pleasant interaction with the staff. We where seated right by the kitchen which isnt an issue but we watched our order sit under the hot lamps for a good 10minutes before being bought to us, after a 40 minute wait. My food wasnt even bought out as a complete meal, i was told id have to wait longer for my sides, after waiting a while a member of staff, manager i assume, approached to ask if everthing was okay and i informed her i still hadn’t received the rest of my meal. After waiting even longer, my side was bought out to me very abruptly and there was no apology for having to wait for half my order, i could tell they had rushed it as it wasnt to the standard it usually is. The food was rubbery and very unsatisfactory as it had been left out for a while, the staff where continuously walking past the mounds of food waiting to be served with a blind eye and the general hygiene was not up to standard. This would be the only time i have ever been unsatisfied with a nandos, very upsetting if i must say.

This is one of the most disappointing restaurants I’ve been to,firstly having to ask for glasses as after 20mins of ordering none where given,then having to wait for the chips which didn’t come out with our meal,then no cutlery at the cutlery stand,then we order desert and after 45 mins nothing so have to chase it again and told it’s on its way another 20mins later we have it but not before chasing it again,visited the ladies toilets which where appalling no toilet roll,bursting past the lid sanitary bins and dirty toilets

I went to Nandos with a group of friends for a birthday and we were all very pleased with the customer service from all staff but inperticular the staff member named Tom.He was a very kind and chatty gentlemen who clearly enjoyed his job and was passionate about helping customers out.He approached us as we were queuing outside in a very warm and friendly way and escorted us to a table.Even though he didn’t serve our food he checked if everything was okay before leaving and helping other customers.His genuine and happy personality made all of our day.Just before leaving I was wanting to tip him £5 however he went into the kitchen and therefore I couldn’t.I just wanted to write a review on this as I was very happy with not just the food but the service as well!Keep it up !!

Visited earlier today and beat the lunchtime rush. I had a buttterfly lemon and herb chicken breast, chips and rice. Both my sons orders were wrong no peri peri chips and wrong sides but these were changed promptly. Food tasty but my chicken breast was barely warm today which put me off as usually its very hot and well cooked. Def would visit again but probably should have mentioned the chicken and got it changed. Nice location but got very busy just after we had ordered.

You know what you’re getting with a Nandos but this one is a little more unique with seating outside in the square and ‘semi-outside’ on the concourse. There’s plenty of staff working outside so you don’t feel detached from the main restaurant and best of all they’re all friendly. They are also quick to clear up spills in the drink area and happy to offer advice if you need it. The whole place seems clean and the food arrives in good time, even when it’s busy. Saying that there always does appear to be a queue waiting to get in but there’s enough tables to mean turnaround is pretty regular. As with all the chain I think it’s pretty expensive for what it actually is but this is one of the better examples I’ve been to.

I've been to quite a few Nando's around the UK. The food is pretty standard - nothing exciting but never awful either. However, maybe I was lonely, but I found the staff to be friendly and the atmosphere to be particularly enjoyable here and so I visited two nights in a row whilst on a short stay in Milton Keynes.

Last Saturday, visited this branch for a respite from hunger and heat (the phone was showing outside temperature as 37 degree Celsius), but the inside of the restaurant was literally boiling too. When asked if the AC was on, the staff responded it was at max cooling, which did not seem the case. Even considering Nando's have sort of an open kitchen (as have many other superbly air-cooled restaurants), that much heat was only possible if the AC were off OR perhaps their was some fault with it. Not sure why they did not do anything about it, despite the customers suffering from the heat.Even though there were quite a few people in the queue for the Ice dispensing machine, it was not making ice for most. What a terrible day!The food was no different to any other Nando's. Delicious as always. Is it not what makes us visit this chain again and again?

We stopped at Nando CMK for lunch mid week. We were met at the door and asked if we wanted table to 2, then pointed in the vague direction of a few tables in a narrow area near the drinks machines, and told 'anywhere down there' The only free tables were next to the windows so we chose one and sat down. The waitress gave us menus and left. It was a good job we'd been to Nando's before otherwise we still may be sat there waiting for someone to take our order.

Visited Nando's last week at around 8pm. Firstly was offered a table by the open door even though there were others free. When I told them it was too cold to sit there, there was huffing and they reluctantly cleared a window table for us. The trip to the counter to order our food was an experience in itself! The guy serving us didn't have a clue how to input the order, couldn't understand us (we couldn't understand him to be fair) and seemed to spend most of his time leering at young women behind the counter and in the restaurant rather than listening to us! It was a scene reminiscent to Faulty Towers. Could not believe the food was delivered correctly but was very grateful because I wouldn't have had much confidence in going back and getting the correct order. It was probably the longest time I have spent at a food counter in my life. Food was typical Nando's offering and the server who came to remove our plates was very pleasant and helpful. When we left the staff were all sitting around a table gossiping, it was like a sixth form common room. Needless to say won't be going back to that place in a hurry!

This time I wasn’t eating in the centre MK Nando’s like I normally would whilst shopping... The reason being.. I was doing some Christmas shopping around 2 weeks ago on my own with my 7 month old son... When I was shouted at by a young girl who was in her NANDOS UNIFORM, and asked “what the f*@k you looking at b!*ch”. I was confused and had to look around at first because I didn’t know why she would be talking to me like that.

Nando’s don’t seem to ever invest in store refits. As a long-standing Nando’s fan, this was never a problem in the early days, as they were all relatively new stores. This Centre MK location is now very tired. The toilets are particularly shocking and there’s some sort of weird leak that drips occasionally in front of you as you queue to order. And it’s been like that for at least a year, so this isn’t a short term maintenance issue that’s high on their priority list.

It's a small Nando's and one of the oldest in Milton Keynes and it is showing its age. Our booth was right by the door, very cold indeed. When we were seated the 'Dude' (no way he was a Maitre D) promised us they would do their best to keep the door closed. Then he stood half in and half out chatting with another member of staff.

Outside of the UK, my experience of this brand is that it's an upmarket KFC. I know that it's beloved of picky teenagers living off the bank of mum and dad but personally can't see what the fuss is all about. The waiters appear to make you queue, then usher you to a seat, talk you through how to order and then you have to queue up again to place your order, which is essentially chicken with a pepper sauce, the strength of which is determined largely by the condiment set of Nando's sauces brought to the table. It's not exactly cheap and I just don't get the USP. Why not simply walk up to the counter, order what you want then pick it up and sit down, thereby losing half the service chain and lowering costs? I don't get and don't believe the hype. Chicken was tasty enough although the sauces can be bought at the supermarket, I understand.

Nandos is a Nandos, assuming yo have been to one before, you should know what to expect. Mon - Fri this place is relatively quiet. You can get seated straight away and do not have to wait for ages for food to be served. Sat - Sun it is a different story. Located in the middle of Centre MK shops it is very busy. Expect to wait, slow service and very loud.

Food was great as per the usual Nandos chicken. How ever all let down by a member of staff named Daniel I believe, on 02/09/16 at 6:50pm on the tills he served me and my partner, his attitude stunk, they had no creamy mash and he didn't even apologise or suggest something else, not a single please or thank you came out of his miserable face, no eye contact or anything I was shocked, if it wasn't my birthday id have usually asked to speak to a manager about this and raise a complaint ! I have attached a photo of my receipt with Host name and date time etc. I will NOT be returning to this particular Nandos again.

Good, friendly management. He let us know the thighs would take a while and then gave us the option to switch to another dish, or if we wanted to wait they offered us a free starter

Came here with my partner after a bit of shopping. Ordered my usual & so did he.Food came out; chips were soggy & corn on the cob was cold so sent it back to get a new one.On the whole it was my worst experience in nandos so far - very disappointed & will not be revisiting this one again!!Tables were dirty & the floors were untidy.2/10 from us

Awesome chicken. Really good spicy chicken, service is always excellent. Mixed olives and hummus are delicious. I almost always get the chicken thighs and it never disappoints.

Stopped in for lunch after shopping. Chose table but seating was a bit uncomfortable as wooden, noticed other chairs some had pads some had pads removed, seemed to be on velcro bit tatty.Ordered whole chicken with 2 large piri fries, didnt have to wait long, the portion of fries were huge, the chicken leg was lovely but the breast joint was a little dry.The waitress was very nice and friendly.A typical Nando meal.

The staff are clueless. I ordered coke and the drink was flat. I asked them to get the gas refill. The lady did it but was very rude and offered me a refund when the drink was flat again. Intook the refund and went for juice which was £2.65. And the refund i had in hand was £2.60. She made me walk all the way to get 5p change. Zero customer service and rude staff. Wont ever return here. Try hatfield. They r good. This one in.milton keynes shopping centre is a BIG BIG FLOP. AVOID!!!

Have been here several times and never disappointed. Last went on a Saturday during lunch time. The waiting queue was massive but was moving quickly. Whilst waiting we even received a sample of a salad to try. The new salad is being introduced next week, was able to try some was good. Our food was nice as always no complaints whatsoever. We tried the new Quinoa salad which was really delicious. The only gripe: some of the cutlery had stains and food marks and saices were not readily available.

Tasty and quick, albeit rather overpriced for what it is. The staff were very efficient and the manager seemed quite affable. The extra hot piri chicken is laughably mild if you're a chilli head but probably borderline hot for the normal person. Always happy to eat here.

Visited here with one of my girl friends for a catch up. was not disappointed. We was greeted by the very handsome young man by the name of Dave, had the cute blonde hair like my husband lol. Got us seated immediately and was very helpful the whole time we was there. Food tasted amazing...atmosphere was great, Will be back very soon for more, cant wait.

We went here as it was a friend suggested it for her Birthday. I hadn t been before as we don't have Nandos in the town I live in.I ordered a deal which was 2 sides and a chicken pitta and a coke, My friend had a salad and tap water it came to £24.00, I was gobsmacked ! however I sat down and the food arrived after a 30 min wait. I was given wedges and not the sweet potato chips I had asked for. I went to advise a member of staff who didn't get what I was saying, apparently the wedges are a different kind of side to the chips. I did state I hadn't asked for wedges but in the end it seemed like to much hard work to get the guy to see I had been overcharged. The food was nice but im not sure I couldn't have made it at home equally good and for a lot less money. I though the attention to detail in taking my order wrong in the first place was poor and to not be able to get this corrected just amplified my frustration :(. I don't think I will be returning here again.

I have no complaints about the staff as they all seemed very friendly and welcoming. the food however is a different story!My boyfriend and I both had the butterfly chicken, he had the lemon & herb and I had the medium. The few chips we did get tasted like they had been sat around being kept warm for hours. My medium chicken didn't really have must flavour at all. My garlic bread was just awful! It was garlic bread with an after taste of something horrible. I really have no idea what they had done to it. I have been to Nando's before so I know what it "should" have tasted like. I've definitely never tasted a Nando's so awful! For over £26 for the 2 of us we could have had a far nicer meal elsewhere. If I was paying Macdonald's prices then I wouldn't be so annoyed, but I'm not, I paid a decent amount for rubbish!We were lucky our food got served to us pretty much straight away. But there was a lot of food that was sat under the heat lamps for a considerable amount of time before being served.The bottomless drinks have so much syrup in them they are sickly sweet. I had a Coke and a Sprite. In the Sprite you could actually see the syrup laying in the glass. I like full fat/sugar fizzy drinks, but these were just something else. I definitely won't be returning to this Nando's again and to be honest it has put me of any Nando's for the near future!

Couple of weeks back me and my friend went to nandos to have a quick catch up. When we got there, glasses were dirty, even when replaced 3 times, the chicken wrap had chilli sauce missing so when I was finishing my food my friend got hers, asked to move to bigger table but took a while until we got it. Over all, the food is great but the service and how clean it was , was not very great.

Visited Nandos for a bit of food with some work colleagues (about 30). Standard Nandos food etc, however the fact that they managed to deal with so many of us deserves a high five. Kudos.

Visited this place during a Christmas shopping spree at the weekend. Firstly called in at 11am and advised that we would like to book a table for 12-12:30pm. The manager advised that they do not do bookings for lunch, but if we showed up later they would remember our faces and try to seat us. We were told that it got real busy around 1pm and looking around, there were only 2 tables in use in the whole restaurant at the time. Fair enough, we went shopping. At around 11:30am (only 30 mins later) we changed our minds; due to trying to avoid the busy periods,waiting time and also our kids were starting to get hungry. After we arrived second time around, the restaurant was now totally full and there was a queue with a waiting time of 1 hour and 30 mins. We were a bit annoyed as this was poor judgement on management behalf, but started to queue as there was a bad luck element to it also, however our faces were not remembered liked advised before. We waited for about 20 mins before we got offered seats at the outside of the premises (the patio area). In November this was very cold and I had to eat with my overcoat on still which was a bit uncomfortable. There were patio heaters and blankets available for customers sitting outside, however our table had a broken heater and no blankets, so we ended up having to steal them from other tables. Anyway we ordered a whole chicken paltter of which took 31 mins to reach us. We asked why the long wait, they said they would find out and get back to us, but never did. The annoying thing was watching people either side of us come in after us and start eating before us. When the food finally came it was delicious - Had sweetcorn, great cooked chicken, some nice fries and a nice pot of spicy ice - We were well fed. As we were sat in very cold area, the food soon started to get cold. Nando's is a very good business model with some unique and interesting recipes, but this is the second time I have been let down by the service provided by a Nando's establishment. I would suggest this needs to be improved in future as it is currently letting the business down.

Had to wait a little for a table inside and had to wait 25 mins for food but it was well worth waiting for. My husband half chicken was mainly bone so he was not happy. Everything else was fine.
