Halal: 
Yes
Nearby: 
Not far off Junction 34 of the M1 and has its own brown tourist sign ("Centertainment") so following. Darnall train station is just over a mile walk away. Meadowhall retail park is also very close (the nearest point is a few hundred metres away), but Meadowhall train station is about 1.5 miles away. Centertainment does have its own Supertram station too! On Centertainment is a Cineworld, Hollywood Bowl and Laser Quest.
Parking: 
Centertainment has hundreds and hundreds of free parking spaces, but be prepared to drive round at busy times waiting for a space to come!

Very disappointing. Left after waiting 40 mins with no service and no explanation or apology for the long wait. All staff looked very young and inexperienced. People still queueing to get in but service very slow.

We have always gone to this Nandos before but the standard has changed a lot. There were a lot of staffs walking around but still service was so slow. We didn't even have a paper menu and the QR code would not work on our phone. Took ages at the till to order. Was told there were no glasses for water as they had no one to wash the glasses. We did not enjoy anything and would not go back there.

Just wanted to give Harvey and Sam credit for their amazing customer service and personalities, you could see they really enjoyed working there and went the extra mile to deal with our order and we’re really attentive - loved them both so friendly and a credit to the store :-)

Nando’s is then first restaurant we’ve attended since COVID-19. As a family with a child and a teenager, We have been so apprehensive about heading back out but we can honestly say that the restaurant it’s self was very clean, staff where great, very attentive and fast service. I would even go as far to say that this is the best customer service I have ever received at a Nando’s restaurant. 10/10 recommend and will definitely be going again!

Normally I absolutely love my Nando’s. However yesterday’s visit left me feeling quite disappointed. The restaurant was t even overly busy but the staff did not seem interested in keeping on top of tables and clearing away plates etc promptly. The staff who were responsible for this spent more time chatting amongst them selves than they did clearing plates.

Just wanted to say that as regular visitors to this Nando's, we always find the staff to be excellent and attentive to our needs, in particular a man named Dayle, who always takes the time to ask how our day is and make us feel liked and valued as customers.

It wasn't so easy to find this Nando's given all the signs in the area seem to point to Meadowhall rather than Centertainment! Eventually we found it, and the experience was an all-round above average experience.

We go to centertainment Sheffield Because we just love the atmosphere, food, staff and space! The parking is hit and miss because sometimes you have to stalk people to their cars so you can get in... But one of us goes to Nandos and orders the seats and holds the fort down!!!whilst I park the car lol... Worth every minute of parking frustration. Two of us went to eat! Two women lol..... We were salivating and the aroma in nandos was making us have the old 'nostril' flare!

this was my first visit to this branch of Nando's...

it was also my first visit to a Halal store, which i was sceptical about at first, but what does it really mean other than my chicken was blessed before it died (god rest its soul!)

all in all, it was a very clean, spacious Nando's with friendly staff

Ooooh.... and a starbucks next door too, thats my afternoon sorted! *thumbs up* =))

Nandos was packed when we went in.
We were told we would have to wait 10 minutes for a table. We were seated well within that 10 minutes.
The meal was the usual Nando's quality (ie, great), and the service was infallible.
It was incredibly busy, and the entire staff were clearly working exceptionally hard. None the less, they did not let such stress and pressure affect the quality of service or food.

Well, after successfully running a 100km, why not celebrate with a lil Nando's?? Seeing as though the run finished at the Don Valley stadium, a short drive found us at Sheffield's Valley Centertainment.

The light and airy store is situated in a leisure park on the outskirts of Sheffield and boasts free parking, a Cineworld cinema and a Hollywood bowl. Parking our minibus was no difficulty even on a Saturday lunch time. Single storey store with lots of booths and tables and a nice amount of artwork around the place and interesting decoration on the ceiling. Lots of blackboard around the till area which had the usual messages written on it. Also a decorative cane front to the till area.

Went before cinema, parking can be bad due to how busy area can get but got right outside the restaurant. Got there just as doors were opening welcomed in by manager (Craig) who was happy and cheerful. i did not want chicken and chips before 12oclock but it was the nicest nandos ive had in a long while. all staff really friendly. 5*
