Every time both food and service are impeccable, and trust me I’ve been there many times. Try curry goat yourself, plantain to die for, rice fluffy and the chilli sauce for an extra punch. I recommend it to everyone!!!

YEARS have passed since the first time I visited Nkono, Bolton. I was studying in college and finding this incredible market stall was one of the best things that happened to me. I came here most days for lunch in 2018 and in 2021, even though I’m back to living in Manchester, I still bring my family and friends back to this same stall with that same smiling face. Even if my family/friends aren’t free, I go there alone for a friendly catchup and some top quality food. Honestly the food is cooked to perfection with tastes that will send you abroad. I cannot and probably will not ever complain!

We try to call about once a month , more if we have time , the food is always sublime , Alain is such an amazing character who clearly loves the food he makes .We had goat curry , chick pea curry , dumplings, plantain and a rib that was extremely rare and so succulent it was amazing. The chilli sauce is to be taken with care , so we get a small pot separately which I would advise if you haven't tried it , as its very cheeky . Give this place a try, the portions are generous and the company is terrific. We will be back again soon!!

This is fantastic, authentic Cameroon takeaway is tucked away in the non-food section of Bolton market and should not be missed. It is a simple place but with fantastic, friendly service and amazing food. This was my first visit but it certainly won’t be my last as the quality was so good.Don’t let the exterior put you off. I couldn’t see a menu board and the food in the glass fronted cabinet wasn’t easy to do identify. The helpful man who is a great character explained what things were and I sampled several of the dishes. The barbecued chicken was so succulent and tasty I’d love to know how they do it. We also had a goat stew which was fantastic, the chicken with lemon amazing and the ox cheek the same. All this served with jalof Rice and dumplings meant it was enough for two meals for two of us!The cost is very reasonable and I cannot wait to revisit. Highly recommended.

You sit in the central eating area watching the world go by. We got a coffee from The Coffee Grind, great service from there as well.

I often visit Nkono on a Saturday afternoon whilst shopping in Bolton with my family. The food is always delicious and varied - there is often something new to try and each dish is full of flavour. Very often, I'll partner up my food with a pint from the pub in the food court and I can honestly say I always enjoy the experience. My favourite dish is the one that allows you to try a bit of everything that's on offer that day. The portions are always generous and each dish is packed with flavour. Visiting Nkono has quickly become one of my favourite things to do on weekend and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone!

As a regular visitor to the Bolton Market we always try to make sure we have enough room to fit in food from Alain and the guys at Nkono. Ridiculously friendly staff who go out of their way to accomodate you, coupled with excellent food at decent prices makes it a go too place. Every dish we have is rich in flavour, meats are tender and fall apart in the mouth (though beware! You will have to battle the bones in most dishes), and the Jolof rice is something we could eat mountains of. They are so good we may just have them cater for our wedding in the future!

We discovered this little gem on Bolton Market yesterday and absolutely fell in love with the food. The bbq'd meat and fish reminded me of the South African Braai's and they had some great little vetkoeke (fried bread balls) to go with the meal. The guys working there are super proud of the food they present and rightly so, because it is simply delicious and great value for money. Good news is they also do events! Going forward, they will be seeing a lot more of us. :-)

Just had lunch here and it was just perfect. I had beef and hubby had chicken. It’s served with a chickpea stew, rice and quite honestly the lightest dumpling I’ve ever tasted. And mega hot sauce!!! But...it’s served with fun, pride and love, and it makes a big difference to any normal food place. You’ll recognise this place with the queue outside which is always a good sign. Give it a try, it’s good, honest tasty food.

We enjoyed the food so much we drove 40 miles this week for more! The home made chilli sauce is the best I’ve ever tasted.

Pros: Booked a table for a larger party which was ready for us on arrival. Food was really good, we ordered to the platter to get a taste of various menu items and a pizza. The chops were very good, quite spicy but tender...many places they are either burnt, tough or both. Generous portion sizes and food freshly cooked and served as the items become ready. Toilet facilities. Great value for money imo. They provided tap water...always a plus. And it's HMC certified. Cons: not a very big place so may have to wait on busier days, I don't know if there was an upstairs. A little bit noisy, but prob to be expected from a popular place. Didn't appear to have easy access to parking, so had to find off road places. They only take cash payments. The service in some parts wasn't good. Had to keep reminding them to bring various basic items which, for some reason, the waiters kept forgetting. Summary: I would definitely visit again and highly recommend it to others esp if you're looking for quality food with a different flavour to the usual Asian restaurants and fast food joints available in Bolton.
