  • Do Nandos still give discounts to NHS card holders and the accompanying guest(s)?

    NHS staff get 10% discount at Nandos and you get to use your loyalty card on top !!

    Great place to get a protein fix !!

    I had my first Nando's experience last night and I was dissapointed.

    I ordered half a Chicken as was worried that it might be too much - I needn't have worried as when it turned up there were 2 "quarters" for my wife and I, however neither of the 4 quarters had legs or much breast. Does anyone who eats at Nando know if this is normal or would I have normally got half a chicken? The chips were the worse I'd ever tasted (Tesco value ones are far superior) and my peas side dish was also very small and poor. I walked out hungry, wishing I'd gone to the GBK opposite. Does this sound normal - is a whole chicken 4 pieces??

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker
    can anyone confirm if it is one stamp per person per day or a stamp per every £6 you spend. my daughter has gone into nandos with a loyalty card (she is 16). the woman on the till refused to let her have a chicken to take out and kept the card saying it had been stamped 3 times on the same date! she was in tears afterwards. i have rang the branch to complain but the girl seems to think its funny and said that it should not have been stamped 3 times in one day. i told her that it was not my fault if someone stamped it 3 times because i made a big order. i have emailed head office and am furious at her upsetting my daughter. she would not have done that if i had been there and i told the manager that. i also told her i had already wrote to head office to complain!!
    any advice?
    Just about to give up!

    There's a new one opening up in Meadowhall, Sheffield soon - will be interesting to see if they are part of this loyalty scheme as they will/should do a hell of a lot of business in a place like that!

    New one coming to Halifax too when they get their asses in gea and finish the build lol

    This is normal, a full chicken is what I would call 4 legs not sure where the breast meat goes but It's never with the chicken!

    I don't really go often enough to compare, but last time I remember thinking how tiny the sides were. I like the chicken but the sides are all pretty rank, except sweetcorn.
