Ordered some butterfly chicken with Peri chips. It’s been a number of times and we have been served by Lillian who has been absolutely amazing, friendly and accommodating. Great customer service from her. Always happy to see her smiling face when we come here.

Personally think the staff need training , only one on till then bloke asked what wanted and walked off , another member of staff didn’t know what she was doing on the till and couldn’t work out gift card, then went to the loo thought my grandson was behind me but member of staff went past my grandson and so my grandson was gif behind the door so panicked where my grandson was , pretty rude if u ask me , food was fine but really not impressed with the quality of staff at all ..

Appalling, rude customer service. Manager was absolutely shocking and unwilling to apologise for her mistake. Making excuses and telling customer to leave restaurant for no clear reason.

We ordered on the app and it took over 30 minutes to come because apparently the order didn’t go through. The manager was lovely and said it would be with us ASAP but when it came, the spice on the chicken was wrong and we were given a small side instead of the large ordered. Not great as we were starving but didn’t want to be rude to the staff as they were invisibly quite busy on a Saturday night.

As I walked into nandos little did I expect to have an experience like the one I did. I chose to have the sunset burger, one that I had never had before. Not only did it have a gorgeous aroma it exploded on my pallet with a mixture of chutney and the soft bread infused with hot sauce. The chicken was succulent and moreish. Not only was I impressed but also it reignited My belief that such foods can be served by such fantastic staff.

We were visiting the area for the weekend from Brighton with our two young children. We visited in the evening and were extremely welcomed by the Manager Ramesh. He could see the children were growing tired of the wait for a table so he went out of his way to accomodate us. The food was very quick and the staff could not do enough for us. We are regulars to Nando's and were very impressed with the speed of service and how hot the food was. Thank you very much.

A store in the heart of this quaint well presented town, parking was surprisingly cheap at £2 for 4 hours in the car park off of Sturges road a very short walk from the store which is on Denmark street opposite the old Town hall on the old Market place.

Really good Nando's experience, clean, well furnished restaurant with a pleasant atmosphere. The food was great and came really quickly. The staff were all really nice, especially LUCAS, who was very friendly and welcoming - funny but still professional. Someone dropped a bottle of sauce and the glass smashed, I was impressed by how Lucas managed the situation quickly, safely and thoroughly.

Was in Aldershot for two days and Wokingham Nando's was merely a 25 minute drive away, so off I went!

One year after opening and we are certainly not dissappointed. Always loved Nandos but think, Wokingham have done exceptionally well. The staff are always friendly and pretty switched on, haven't seen a grumpy face or lack in customer service just yet. The place is run effeciently and even in busier times it seems to run very smoothly. as I am a regular customer I get the little extra recognition but whoever we take there also comments on the friendliness and efficiency of the restaurant.
