Nando’s announces BIG menu shakeup with three new additions
Nando’s has announced it’s launching a major menu shake-up today – with three new items available to fans across the UK.
For the first time, the chicken restaurant chain is bringing together chicken and chips in the new Fully Loaded Chip platter, which coats the chips in melt-in-the-mouth cheddar cheese, scallions, smoky PERi-Tamer sauce, and a creamy dressing.
Costing just £8, the sharing dish was inspired by a ‘Nando’s hack’ devised by PERi-PERi fans and Nando’s social media collaborators.
It was shared by millions and created a huge buzz on social media, with people begging Nando’s to officially add the food creation to the menu. The wait is finally over, as the chain is launching it as the staple of their new summer menu.
Meanwhile, the restaurant is also launching a new pepper and feta dip, £4.50, for the summer, as well as bringing back 2021 guest spice and everyone’s favourite, Garlic BBQ.

The peri peri chicken company then tests its followers with a three-word caption, but leaves a few letters missing.

Nando’s recently made headlines when Beyoncé spent nearly £2,000 at the restaurant as she continued the UK leg of her Renaissance tour.
While some suspected completely random answers, others agreed with the game and correctly answered that it would be ‘fully loaded chips’
The hitmaker, 41, treated her crew to the flame-grilled peri-peri-style chicken restaurant ahead of her performance in Murrayfield, Scotland.
The Crazy In Love singer ordered 110 chicken burgers, 90 pittas and nine chicken thighs for a bill of a whopping £1,800.
To make sure her entire crew had something to eat, Beyoncé provided the restaurant’s full range of spices and vegetarian options.
Instead of staying under the radar by using a false name for the order, the superstar’s team used her real name.
