West Hampstead

Came into this store prior to the RYN event at a nearby store. This premises is in a rather upmarket area of London, normally I could never imagine living in London but I could see myself staying round here with its Waitrose, speciality butchers, hauteur cuisine freezer stores and trappings of the dolce vita. In fact the main language I heard walking down the road was French.

My worst ever Nando's experience.

This was my first visit to this branch (my favourite one) for around three weeks, and I was surprised to find no members of staff that I recognised.

I walked in carrying my two year old daughter, and after waiting to be seated for four minutes I gave up and picked up a high-chair myself and took it to an empty table (this wasn't hard to find as only three other tables were in use).

Great service, well cooked chicken. Restaurant let down by lack of cleanliness. Sticky tables and coke on the floor weren't particularly inviting

Good bantz.
Tip: don't be late or you'll miss the raffle.
As for the quiz it was a fail that there was no Olivier in there and the questions were too hard but it's ok because I'm going to make the RYN host breakfast now.

Having never been to the West Hampstead nando's before I was originally quite annoyed at how long the walk was from the underground station but i quickly got over this when i got there! We had to wait quite a while to start the quiz and then subsequently order but when we did i ordered half a chicken, chips, spicy rice and halloumi, i think i overestimated my hunger as I struggled to devour the nandos delights.

First visit to West Hampstead and a RYN event. Thoroughly enjoyable evening and the Nandos was on par with most of their other restaurants that I've vistited before. Food was delivered fairly quickly considering there was a large group of us. The restaurant itself could probably do with a little more lighting as it felt quite dark at times, but aside from that it ticked all the boxes!

Having seen many the decor in many other Nando's, I found the artwork very unlike a lot of other restaurants in the UK and Namibia. Nando's is known for its rustic African themed restaurants, this one wasn't the same.

The food and service were good. I had a lovely evening with the raffle and quiz.

Never before have I seen a large walking Nando chicken. It was almost hard to eat my dinner afterwards but somehow I managed it as it was soo delicious. The walking chicken was not seen again after we finished - worrying!

I had a truly fantastic time at the Reviewer Dinner #RYNsaucy17 at West Hampstead Nando's. Not only was it extremely close to my house making it excitingly accessible and promising for an early start, but the company was outstanding, the quiz left me utterly quizzical and quashed my fears of a funless evening. I had a lovely double chicken wrap with cheese and extra halloumi, which was tender and delightful, but could have used a little more sauce.

butterfly chicken, halloumi cheese, macho peas, great taste. The frozen yogurt was good too.

Great food. Chicken was well cooked with generous amount of sauce.

Food took a long time to come and we had to chase.

Restaurant was dirty inside and staff did not make much effort to clean up quickly.

Positive was outside terrace area and opportunity to eat in the sun. Table was wonky though.

Overall, site in need of a bit of a revamp

they were busy and restaurant quite full of customers, but food was a long time to arrive, and when it did not all the meals arrived at the same time,
will still visit there as on average quite good service and tasty food. Vanilla frozen yogurt really good

Great friendly place. They found us space - they even had a high chair for us.

Great meal and service even got free coffee and yogurt

good atmosphere, and good London location. Nando's staff service quite good, only one small thing, one side order was served to a different person at our table, generally otherwise a tasty and enjoyable meal

On returning from a phone call to meet Marc Joss within the premises, I found him engaging in a discordant word with the manager who was being exceedingly punctilious and pugnacious and pedantic with regard to the utilisation of Nando's cards and how Mr Joss might use them in this context. After a flirtatious word, we were able to rectify the situation but both returned to our table feeling as if we 'd had to fight for the food we deserved.

Two problems occurred at this visit

buzzy location, nice decor and good atmosphere, and great food swiftly served

Love this branch. Never wait for a table, always big portions, always fast service. The waitress totally forgot to bring our coffee/yoghurt. She realised her mistake before we had a chance to point it out and immediately told us it would be on the house!

It had been quite a while since my last visit to West Hampstead Nando's and overall this was a good one. The best thing about this visit was that it was peak time on a Saturday night and the three of us (Olive, José and myself) were seated straight away.

Parking is notoriously difficult in West Hampstead. We drove around for a good 10 minutes before luckily finding a space which was a 5 minute walk away from the branch and that was at 945pm on a Thursday!
