Part of the Nandos chain — see all 99 locationsWe were born in South Africa, with a blend of Portuguese and British culture along the way. It all started in Mozambique, home of the hot sun, rich soil... and African Bird’s Eye Chillies. Also known as PERi-PERi. Small but mighty, these chillies have been used for centuries in local Mozambiquan cooking. The Portuguese then added a squeeze of lemon and kick of garlic to make the first PERi-PERi sauce. Used on just about anything, they found it was the ultimate baste for flame-grilling spatchcocked chicken. And it wasn’t long before two friends in Johannesburg came to experience the taste of PERi-PERi chicken and Nando’s was born. Fast forward a few years, restaurants and Fino Pittas and today, the Nando’s PERi-PERi you know and love still pays homage to those roots.
Staff has given verbal assurance of halal status. From the management: 'Our halal chicken is authorised by leading Halal Food Authorities. The quality, welfare and health of our chicken is a priority and our UK suppliers follow the strict Red Tractor Farm Assurance Standards. Our halal chickens are pre-stunned to minimise suffering and fear before they're hand-slaughtered. All our halal products are kept separate at our suppliers and in our distribution centres. And our restaurants with halal-friendly options are only allowed to receive chicken from our approved distribution centre. In these restaurants, we only serve chicken that's certified halal. And as we don’t handle any pork ingredients, there’s no chance of cross-contamination'

I love Nando's, this one is on a decent site with a cinema across the way. The service is very quick and I've never been let down with tasty food....ever! the only snag is car parking...you have to pay at the NCP to park there (usually £2.70 on average, at the time of writing this) as there's nowhere else to park. Also, just in case you don't know, you get 20% off if you work for the NHS (I didn't find this out until this year and we go ALOT!)
This place has got me hooked on peri peri sauce! I've been through bottles of the stuff! I've been a few times, the last time I went was around Christmas time. The atmosphere is spot on and the food was super. I haven't been recently though as there is an investigation into the chicken suppliers. Please do not think this is a false claim but the suppliers who claim to be halal, also produce haram chickens too and all the chickens are said to be mechanically slaughtered. Admin, if you would like a copy of the e-mail I received then I will forward it to you. This is not meant to put anybody off because I am disappointed myself.
I had a fantastic experience at Nando’s Bradford. The food was absolutely delicious, cooked perfectly, and served fresh and hot. Every part of the meal was full of flavour and exceeded my expectations. What really made the visit stand out was the excellent customer service. The staff were welcoming, friendly, and attentive throughout, making sure everything was perfect and that we had a great dining experience. Hamza, yousuf and one 2 other of the team didn’t catch the name were absolutely brilliant. It’s clear that the team takes pride in both the quality of their food and the service they provide. I’ll definitely be returning and would highly recommend Nando’s Bradford to anyone looking for great food and outstanding customer service. Only thing I would say is the toilets need either another door or some kind of better location I kept seeing the toilet door open. The service made up for everything Thanks for the cake 👍
