Our server,Alex, was very willing to help! He gave us a refund for an accidental purchase of an extra drink. Actually cared about the service and was kind in seating us in a booth. Would definitely come back :)

This personally isn’t about the food that was great I’m talking what I seen on the floor and by the cashiers. I’m appalled at the number of staff talking around the cashiers when there is maybe one or two people catering for the whole restaurant cleaning plates customers queries whilst others stand around chat swear and generally not doing nothing I spoke to the lad and said he’s a hard worker and I’m appalled at how staff are he deserves better.

We had an awful experience! The staff were so rude and all looked like they wanted to be somewhere other than here! Their was a wait on food that we were unaware of becasue we weren’t told. We had to get our bottomless coke 3 times becasue it was flat and when we asked the staff to replace they just walked off!None of the staff were apologetic and their was such a lack of communication it was a joke.

Tried to decline armed forces discount, over 40 minutes wait for a boneless sharing platter (when chased for update they said it was a wait for food but didn’t advise when seated or placing orders). Several tables seated after us ate and left before we got our meal. Table next to us was cleaned but food scraps left on the table. When food arrived chips were reheated, garlic bread was stale and chicken was over cooked on inside but barely cooked skin. Not impressed and wouldn’t recommend.

This store is on the edge of the Bullring shopping centre in between a Pizza hut and a Burgerking. There are many stores around it including Selfridges and many high street brands Bullring open air market is also close by. It benefits from car parking at the centre and is very close to Birmingham New Street and Moor Street railway stations.

Myself and 5 friends arrived for a meal approx 8pm. They did explain that food may be a half hour wait. The food arrived quicker than anticipated. However my friend had paid extra for halloumi cheese with her meal and it was not present. We informed a waitress. 10mins later nothing. We informed another waitress, 10mins later nothing.

I was visiting Birmingham for an evening conference event at the International Conference Centre which is just off Broad Street. However I had arrived a few hours early and after checking into my nearby hotel I decided to take a look at Birmingham Bull Ring shopping centre, and enjoy a chicken based dinner with added peri-peri goodness.

I entered the outlet, and was immediately greeted by an incredibly friendly Nandoca, who asked me if I had been to Nando's before. I replied 'Not this one!' to which I recorded the response 'Welcome to Bull Ring Nando's my friend, let me show you to a table', and he took me to a table (23) with such a huge smile. This was the start of something special.

Does no one work or go to school in this city? It was one pm and this place was packed. Though I suppose in saying that I'm always at work on a friday. A large queue and fifteen minute wait is what greeted me so i was dreading the food waiting time. The nicely coiffured young man wanted to lead me to a table round the back but i hi- jacked table 22 right by the utensils area and funnily enough next to table 42?

10 wing platter, Churrasco thigh burger, Large Peri Chips, Coca Cola, Mango Quencher, Another Coke and Sprite. And it really lowered my expectations but I don't blame you it was my first time. But I was extremely disappointed with the waiting time it took them a ridiculous 35 minutes! Please make your food quicker. It's really hard to say if I would come again.

This was the first time i had visited the Nandos in the Bullring, had always been put off on the queues outside but craving a chicken decided to brave it and wait. Although the queue was large we were told it was a twenty minute wait which I didn't consider long to wait for food (was extremely hungry). The queue moved relatively fast and before we knew it we were at the front. The seating in this restaurant is very spread out but still can fit large numbers of people.

First visit since it has been renovated and extended? (seemed they have removed tables and extended the kitchen, as well as creating anoutside area)

Waited 10 mins for a table, was a bit awkward as i had my newborn in the pram and we struggled to get round to our table with her. Aisles are less than one person wide, and i was almost sitting on my neighbours lap..

It was basically empty when we went in but we went literally the second it opened so that would explain it. I'm not from Birmingham or overly near it but I was visiting the area and decided to go to Nando's because well, it's the best place ever.

A truly wonderful Nandos. The decor was very warm and homely, the staff (especially the hostess/manager) were very friendly. The food, as always in Nandos, was good.

I frequently visit this nandoes and the service is quite good. Rarely do we have to wait. The chicken is not always the freshest and tender and the chickens need to be marinated rather than just put on during cooking. Yet the food is always the best as nandoes is the best.

The staff were very friendly despite I accidentally knocked all the sauces over during a past visit. lol. To end the quite clean but too packed. The tables are too close.

Sometimes a quarter chicken leaves a little to be desired, but not this time. It looked like the chicken had been working out before getting smothered in that beautiful sauce - a really large portion, good stuff! This Nando's is always very busy at the weekend and this visit was no exception, but they dealt with the queue really well and the wait wasn't too long in the end.

Parking in the Bullring is £2 an hour.

We were able to get a table for 10 on a relatively busy Friday evening without too long a wait but this Nando's is almost always busy so think about other branches in central Birmingham at peak hours.

This is one of three Birmingham Nando's that I have visited too many times and it's the one I keep going back to.

Although it's not the biggest and certainly not the most decorated, there's always a buzz about the place that makes it enjoyable to eat in!

Slap bang in the middle of the busiest shopping centre, the Bullring, you would expect the staff to be so busy, they wouldnt have time for you. Complete opposite, despite it being busy they were welcoming, kept the place clean and the food was AMAZING!

This was my very first time at Nando's. I had just arrived in Birmingham and I was incredibly hungry. I went to one of the few open restaurants in the area and ordered a mediterranean salad and a veggie wrap (after a flight I don't feel like eating meat...). It was great! It was the first of a long series of dinners at Nando's...

This visit took place during a Saturday afternoon and was VERY busy. After a fairly lengthy wait for a table and queue at the till the food took a fair amount of time to arrive but was of a good standard.

A good Nando's in the heart of the lower floor at the Bullring. Make sure to allow queuing time in busy periods. There is an outside area that is nice during the summer months. Service is generally decent and food of a high quality. Bustling atmosphere.
