Nando's

My first time eating out since finding out I am gluten intolerant and I was a bit worried as I couldn’t see much online. When we went in and were shown to our table we were asked if we had any allergies and when I explained gluten I was advised that I had to order at the till with the manager. The manager could not have been any more helpful and explained I could give my order and he would advise if it was gluten free and said if he didn’t know the answer he would find out. He was brilliant! I was pleased to find out their chips are gluten free so the only thing I changed on my usual order was I swapped garlic bread for broccoli. It was explained they would use separate utensils to avoid cross contamination. My food came down with a wee allergy flag in it (same as the ones for the sauces). Excellent service and great food! :)

We ate out while on holiday here--I'm always very careful but previous experience with Nandos lends me to trust the chain. Had no issues, manager took the order and went through the listings of a few items that had me concerned. Very polite and happy to help, and the food was delicious (as it often is)!

Had a nice lunch in Nandos, the chicken is GF and most of the sides are as well. The chips are done in a separate fryer so those are GF as well! A manager will take your order and they’ll talk you through the usual risks and let you look through the allergen guide to double check what you can have. The food is delicious, a really good place for a quick lunch

I am sooooooo impressed with this nando's. Not only is it BEAUTIFUL, the staff were fantastic and they took my gluten free needs very seriously. Only the manager would serve us due to my dietaries and I felt very safe and taken care of. Honestly, my first visit to London, I was so impressed.

I am sooooooo impressed with Nando's UK. The staff were fantastic and they took my gluten free needs very seriously. Only the manager would serve me due to my GF dietaries for a coeliac and I felt very safe and taken care of.
