A special mention to Chris Packet as he was so friendly, polite and welcoming. He went above and beyond to ensure we had a good evening. He is a true asset to Bandos.

We ordered our usual boneless platter and decided to try the seasonal shredded sprouts instead of the peas. Danni bought our food over and asked if we’d tried the Christmas gravy?
When we said we hadn’t she went away and came back with a jug full. I explained I am gluten intolerant and she even took the time to get the ingredients for me and I could have it.
The sprouts and gravy were wonderful.
Danni went above and beyond and took the time to chat to us.

Amazing staff, so friendly. Helped me with my confusing app. Really appreciate staff members time and effort.
Brilliant manager. The food is always lovely but the staff deserve a 10 star review.
Nothing too much trouble. We will definitely be back soon! Thanks again, Stephanie

Butterfly dry. Food cold, service wasn't very good, quite clear that some people are new to a job full stop. Overall rubbish, busy confused and overpriced. Will never visit again, I give Nandos possibly a year then will shut down.

Rate Your Nando's was lucky enough to have a 6 person table on dry run day at this brand spanking new Nando's. We were warmly welcomed in by Gary who seated us directly below the stunning green lighting which greets you as you walk in.

Went on a dry-run day, food was amazing, chicken was beautiful & so was the coleslaw :) Very clean & tidy but expected as this is a new place, lets hope it's just as good when I book to return soon.

I was lucky enough to attend with Marc on a dry run day - and it certainly didn't disappoint!

This restaurant is located less than half a mile from Sutton Coldfield train station and is also very close to multiple car parks, such as at The Mall - which is reasonable at £1.20/2hrs, £1.80/3hrs, £2.40/4hrs - or at Victoria Street which is even cheaper at £0.40/1hr, £0.70/2hrs, £1.00/3hrs etc.
