Sauce Bottles
Bottle Sauce Hot
If you're after a bite of heat, you've come to the right sauce. Bursting with PERi-PERi, a kick of garlic and lemon, this is how hardcore PERi-PERi fans get caught in the heat of the moment.
Bottle Sauce Garlic
Garlic is many things, but it isn't subtle. Just like this sauce, a blend of PERi-PERi with its sweet waves of garlicky goodness. If you're on a first date, pour this on both of your plates. You'll thank us later.
Bottle Sauce Lemon Herb
Our PERi-PERi sauce is made with African Bird's eye Chilli and a blend of ingredients-onion, sun-ripened lemons, garlic and spices.
Bottle Sauce XX Hot
We salute you. With eyes streaming and mouth burning, you'll fall for fire that doesn't flinch from flavor. Balanced with PERi-PERi, lemon, garlic, onion and spices, you will be coming back for more.
Bottle Sauce Medium
This is our gateway sauce: a good dollop of PERi-PERi with spices. For a while, it will be enough. But soon you'll want them all. Just go with it.
Bottle PERinaise Original
Our great tasting and famous PERi-PERi blended mayo that you've learnt to love in our restaurants.
Bottle PERinaise Garlic
Our great-tasting and famous PERi-PERi blended mayo that you've learned to love in our restaurants.

The food here is always great but I wrote this review because service always goes above and beyond, even when they’re slammed. As someone who has been getting Nando’s for 15 years, it was still helpful to me when Sean explained the differences between all the sandwiches, and then let me know they can even baste the halloumi cheese in hot sauce. Will keep coming back weekly.

Another nice restaurant to try Grilled/Rotisserie chicken meals.
I like that I ordered spicy level for my chicken and they gave me the real spicy. (You know, many restaurants offer you a spicy choice but not spicy at all)
January 2026
Just get the half chicken with Portuguese rice. It's a clutch meal and the sauces take it up a notch. The chicken is the perfect texture. This location has plenty of seating and my kids liked the kids meals. The hot level isn't too crazy, but it's delicious and then there are also more herb or lemon-based sauces for people who don't like heat.
