Covent Garden

Had full chicken but no parking there so got PCN because staff told me no ticket checker comes on Sunday

BUFF FOOD

Visited Nandos Covent Garden last Tuesday (15.06) with 4 friends. Found this restaurant located in heart of Covent Garden. Fabulous restauration with its "nandos style" and massive basement area. Great food as always but this time been impressed by the most kind, funny and very professional waiter named Cuba. Big shoutout to him for making our visit just awesome. We bothered him with so many request and all he said back was "im here for you guys" Hospitality needs people like him!

I've just started an evening class in central London and as this was the first day I headed up early in order to allow myself plenty of time to work out where I was going and of course, eat so I would have the energy to get through the session! I used the Nandos App to work out the closest branch to where I needed to be (and with a bit of help from Google Maps) my destination was to be Nandos in Covent Garden.

I was in London very early for an evening meeting and after doing some shopping in the Regent street and Covent Garden area I arraigned to meet a friend who lived nearby for a late lunch and some drinks at a nearby Nandos and today it would be the Covent Garden location.

This outlet is like many London Nando's, and is mainly below street level. I entered through a small shop front, and was greeted by a friendly Nandoca who swiftly directed me towards the RYN group. There are a few tables upstairs along with a cutlery & sauce point, with the spiral staircase leading to the lower level on the right hand side as you enter. This brings you out at the till and grill point. Behind the spiral staircase is a small secluded booth.

Very Good Nando's.

Lots of fun with the RYN team,

Except for a guy called Jeremy who worked there, he was wearing a certain flag on his shirt which was clearly political and was wholly inappropriate. It most definitely made me feel uncomfortable.

Second visit to this branch - not the easiest one to find in the maze of side streets off the Strand. This was part of the RYN Christmas dinner. There was a queue to sit down when I entered but I headed straight downstairs knowing that we'd have a few tables. It was pretty annoying that our tables were placed so close to each other, and way too big to even attempt moving them apart.

Rate your nando's reviewers dinner. The first dinner I'd been too and possibily my best ever Nando's experience. Everything was great and the service received from Jeremy was exceptional.

I'd been to this branch previously and had a great time. A jewel in the Nando's crown.

I had passed this Nando's many times but had never actually been in. Although I did get lost, I was able to find it in the end with some help from Blayne and Olivia. To my surprise (only having one raffle ticket) I somehow won a combo meal which was awesome! #freenandos. I went for boneless thighs, chips and spicy rice which was very filling! The speed of service was great and I was eating before I knew it. I didn't find our tables the most spacious as I remember having to keep squeezing in!

Fairly small restaurant. Went with a couple of work colleagues while we were out filming. Super hot day so we were relieved to take cover. Food took a little longer than expected but was decent. The salad was good. Would probably avoid this particular location in the future just because it seemed popular with tourists and could foreseeably be cramped.

I visited Covent Garden Nando’s with one friend for a quick meal on a Sunday afternoon. Last time I was here, it was very busy and I was half expecting a wait (in which case we would have instead gone to one of the numerous other places in the area). Luckily, it wasn’t all that busy inside and we got a table straight away. The restaurant itself is mostly underground and cave-like, with lots of different areas.

Excellent food and service

This central London store is close to the heart of it being not far from Trafalgar square and the national portrait gallery. This store is amoungst a few others including a Mexican I quite liked the look of. From the road it doesn't look too impressive and as you enter you would imagine you were in an upmarket coffee house with a spiral stair desending to the depths below.

No forks, but we had some in time for the meal.

The waitress was very rude on arrival and had 25 minute wait to get a table. But overall an ok experience.

Very nice Nando's this one. As others have said about this on Rate YOUR Nando's, the upstairs/street level has a nicely decorated bar. I guess Nando's has to try and compete with the many other bars in and around Covent Garden - and it seems like they've done a nice job. A few beers and head downstairs for some chicken :-)
