What our customers say
“Amazing food and great customer service.”
“Lovely flavours, chicken is grilled to perfection. Better than the other peri peri place with a similar name — and nearly half the price too.”
“Nice atmosphere, clean and hygienic, prices are reasonable. Recommended for a quick bite to eat.”
“I ordered the beef burger meal. I was actually surprised at how good it was. The bun was nice and didn't fall apart, the meat was full of flavour and well cooked, and the sauce was really nice. Fries were the classic skin-on ones which I love.”
“One of the best peri peri chicken places I have been to. Food was amazing and the service and atmosphere were great.”

Nando's took us on. Then someone else did. We changed the sign twice and never changed the recipe. Read the full story of how Fernando's became Manzanos.
