An absolutely amazing service today being served by both Dillon and Micheal…they truly made the experience 5* and memorable…I've been here a few times but today by far was the best service with the two Nandos staff.

Definitely will be back, thank you.

Ate all vegan. It was great! But not as great as the service provided by maria, Nicki, Romain, Sephora, CC, Glen, Fatima and Anthony, who all absolutely smashed it under a huge amount of pressure when there was a huge line and still came across and beautiful and polite people and professionals!
Give them all a medal!
Much love to all of them. We'll be sure to show our faces again!

This outlet is slightly away from the main high street and Clapham Junction station, which is how I arrived. A 7 minute walk and I arrived. Greeted and seated fairly quickly, all very nice.

Just had my first Nando's of the new year (Southwark Arches lunch on a red reward - which matches the 4.88/5 I gave it a couple of years ago, so no need for a new review)... but it did jog my memory about my last Nando's of 2015, a New Year's Eve stop in Clapham prior to heading out.

Apparently Nando's has been listed as the ideal place for a first date, and here I was visiting this branch again for a date with Anthony from POF. I mean at least if the date doesn't go well I've had a Nando's so I can't complain with that.

Nando's is great because you know what you're getting,
It's always good food in a lively setting,
We've all got our favourites, we know what we'll buy,
Good food and good chatter, and you'll leave on a high...

How aghast we were then to see the menu was new!
There was a lot of panicked discussion - what should we do?!
Test out the new stuff of stick to the classic,
Or order it all and end up brassic?

Only 6 minute wait for the food this time which was quite impressive compared to how busy the branch was. We sat down the back by what may have been a boiler or something which kept making a strange noise as we ate.

bit of a trek (and some arguments) but reached the Clapham High Street branch eventually. very quickly seated and settled. no queue to order, and very helpful cashier called Almudena. she even asked which chicken quarter I preferred.......breast or thigh. this is the 1st time I've been asked, I believe. the branch is long and thin, we sat at the back, so couldn't see many other dinners. this was fine, we 4 girlies like a catch-up/bitch-fest!!!!

Despite my friends thinking that I would get us lost, ewe got to this branch within an hour of leaving Twickenham. Overground to Clapham Junction, then a 345 towards Clapham Common. This branch is on a high street with plenty other restaurants offering good deals like Rodizio Brazilian barbecue, Revolutions and even Subway. It's just past the Library and is next to the Police station on the corner of Clements Road.

These days I consider myself a Nando's veteran. I'm known amongst my friends and family for my remorseless hunger for Nando's and have had numerous, meaty conversations (genuine ones) speculating whether there is something addictive slipped into the Peri Peri sauce to keep people coming back.

When I moved to Clapham, naturally my first priority was to find out my DFN (Distance-From-Nando's).

Went to Clapham Nandos for the first time. Half chicken and peri chips with perinaise. Wait wa not too bad and the food as always was brilliant. Tender chicken and the chips were nice and hot.

This was one of the most annoying visits I’ve ever had, when we arrived it was nearly full, we got seated on a cramped able for two, almost on top of the table next to us, so annoying when this happens, and the people on either side were sooo annoying, we had two guys talking about girls in a disrespectful way and saying ‘bruv’ every other word, and a man on the other side who was coughing none stop for the entire meal. This left me angry so will obviously influence my review.

Happiness could be described as Nandos for breakfast, lunch and dinner, however only when dinner isn't at Clapham. This was the first store I came to back in 97 when it was a new store and my memories are skant, though if the food was anything like it was tonight no wonder it took me another 6years before my second nandos.

Was staying with a friend in Clapham for a weekend and so took the chance to pop into here. He was actually the fine chap who introduced me to Nando's all those years ago!

It was a nice sunny August evening and so there were a few people sitting outside... but err, not for me... they were pretty much sitting in the road!

An older Nando's that could do with a makeover. There isn't enough space by the till to accommodate queuing in busy periods and as a result people easily pushed in. Staff were not very friendly and food was placed hurriedly on the table. The surrounding area doesn't have a lot to offer, though it is only a 2 minute walk from Clapham North tube station, and a 10-15 minute walk from Stockwell and Brixton stations.
