Nando's, Portuguese chicken restaurant in Rhondda Cynon Taf, United Kingdom
Nando's is a Portuguese chicken restaurant in Rhondda Cynon Taf that specializes in grilled chicken cooked with African bird's eye chili sauce. Diners can choose from multiple spice levels to match their heat preferences.
The chain began in 1987 when two entrepreneurs opened the first location in Johannesburg, South Africa, serving Portuguese-style grilled chicken. The concept later expanded beyond South Africa to reach international markets.
The space displays Southern African artworks and design elements throughout, showcasing pieces from various artists and communities. This creates a welcoming environment that reflects the heritage of its founding vision.
The restaurant offers table service, takeaway options, and digital ordering through QR codes for convenience. These choices let visitors decide how they prefer to enjoy their meal.
Customers earn reward points called Chillies on orders over 7 pounds, which can be exchanged for free menu items at any location. This system gives regular visitors an extra incentive to return.
