Nando's Menu With Updated Prices in South Africa 2026

Nando’s Menu With Updated Prices in South Africa 2026

Prices last checked: October 2026. Prices are taken from the official Nando’s South Africa online menu and recent SA menu sources. Nando’s prices can differ slightly from one restaurant to the next, and delivery apps usually charge more than ordering in store or for collection, so always confirm the price at your specific branch before you order.

Nando’s is the home of flame-grilled PERi-PERi chicken in South Africa. What started in 1987 as a small chicken restaurant in Rosettenville, Johannesburg, has grown into one of the country’s most loved restaurant brands, famous for its African Bird’s Eye Chilli heat, its tongue-in-cheek advertising, and chicken that is marinated for 24 hours before being flame-grilled to order.

The Nando’s menu is built around choice. You pick your chicken — a quarter, a half or a full bird — then pick your heat level, from the gentle Lemon & Herb all the way up to Extra Hot, and finish it off with sides like PERi-PERi chips, spicy rice or a flame-grilled mielie. On this page you will find the full Nando’s menu with updated prices in South Africa for 2026, including burgers, pitas and wraps, sharing platters, salads, kids’ meals, desserts and drinks.

Deals and Best-Value Options at Nando’s

Nando’s does not run a fixed, year-round “specials” menu the way some burger chains do — its promotions change with the season and are announced on the Nando’s website and app. The reliable way to save at Nando’s all year round is to order the bundles instead of separate items:

Deal / Bundle Description Price (ZAR)
Full Chicken + 2 Sharing Sides A whole chicken with two sharing sides. Bought separately the same items would cost R250.00, so the bundle saves R39.00 — enough food for 3–4 people. R211.00
1/4 Chicken + Chips + Drink A complete single meal — chicken, chips and a drink — for under R80.00. R79.00
Cabo Sosatie Snack Platter Sosaties and 20 winglets with wedges, garlic rolls and dip — a group starter that works out cheaper than ordering the items one by one. R390.00
Big Platters (Serves 6–8) Any of the four large platters works out to roughly R91.00–R121.00 per person for a group of 6–8. R725.00

Two more money-saving tips: in-store and collection prices are lower than delivery-app prices (the same platter listed at R725.00 on the official menu appears from R906.00 on Mr D Food), and adding a single side to a burger, pita or wrap (usually R16.00–R27.00 extra) is cheaper than buying the side on its own at R36.00.

Allergens Values of Nando’s Menu

Nutrition Values About Nando’s in South Africa

Flame-grilling makes Nando’s one of the lighter fast-food options in South Africa, especially if you choose Lemon & Herb or Plain basting and swop chips for a salad or mielie. The figures below are approximate and vary with the cut of chicken (breast or leg), the basting and the portion served.

Menu Item Approximate Calories (kcal)
1/4 Chicken 280–340
1/2 Chicken 550–640
Full Chicken 1,100–1,280
10 Winglets 620–720
Chicken Burger 520–600

Hotpot with Spicy Rice ±450

Is Nando’s Halal?

Many Nando’s restaurants in South Africa are Halaal-certified, and Halaal outlets display their certification in store. However, certification is done per restaurant, which means not every Nando’s in the country is Halaal — a small number of outlets are not certified, and a few (such as the Savoy store in Johannesburg) are Kosher instead.

Before you order, check the certificate displayed at the specific store you plan to visit, or use the store finder on nandos.co.za, which shows the details of each restaurant. If Halaal status matters to you, confirming at your exact branch is the only way to be completely sure.

Location and Contact

Nando’s has over 300 restaurants across South Africa, from large sit-down stores in shopping centres to smaller takeaway outlets, so there is almost always one nearby. Opening hours differ by store, with most restaurants trading from around 10:00/11:00 in the morning until 21:00–22:00 at night.

  • Website / Online Ordering: www.nandos.co.za
  • Store Locator: Use the “Find a Restaurant” tool on the Nando’s website for your nearest store, its hours and its contact number
  • Delivery: Order through the Nando’s website/app, Mr D Food or Uber Eats (delivery prices are higher than in-store prices)
  • Social Media: Nando’s South Africa on Facebook, Instagram and X (@NandosSA)

FAQs

How much is a quarter chicken at Nando’s South Africa in 2026? A 1/4 chicken on its own costs R60.00. Add any single side and it is R72.00, or make it a fuller meal with chips and a drink for R79.00, or chips and a Nando’s roll for R84.00.

How much is a full chicken at Nando’s? A full flame-grilled chicken on its own costs R152.00. Bundles cost more but work out cheaper per person: R182.00 with 4 rolls, R211.00 with 2 sharing sides, R241.00 with 3 sharing sides and R264.00 with 4 sharing sides.

What is the cheapest meal on the Nando’s menu? The cheapest single item is a Nando’s roll at R9.00. For a proper meal, the Hotpot (with spicy rice or Casa pap) and the 1/4 chicken on its own are the cheapest options at R60.00 each.

Does the PERi-PERi heat level change the price? No. Whether you choose Plain, Lemon & Herb, Mild, Hot or Extra Hot, the price of your chicken, burger, pita or wrap stays exactly the same. The heat level is purely a flavour choice.

Is Nando’s halal in South Africa? Many Nando’s South Africa restaurants are Halaal-certified, but not all of them. Certification is per store, so check the certificate at the branch you are visiting or confirm on the Nando’s website before ordering.

Why are Nando’s prices higher on Mr D Food and Uber Eats? Delivery platforms add their own markups and fees. For example, the big sharing platters are R725.00 on the official Nando’s menu but are listed from R906.00 on Mr D Food. Ordering in store or collecting yourself is the cheapest way to buy Nando’s.

Conclusion

From a R60.00 quarter chicken to a R725.00 platter that feeds the whole table, the Nando’s menu in South Africa has something for every appetite and every budget. The simple side pricing — R36.00 for a single and R49.00 for a sharing portion — makes it easy to build exactly the meal you want, and with five heat levels at no extra cost, everyone at the table gets their chicken their way.

Remember that prices were last checked in October 2026 and can vary a little by branch, and that delivery apps charge more than the in-store menu. For flame-grilled chicken with real flavour, Nando’s remains one of South Africa’s favourite choices.
