RESTAURANT chain Nando’s is re-opening another 94 of its restaurants for delivery and collection.

Staff wearing PPE began preparing food at 54 more of its restaurants today. It said it will expand this to a further 40 restaurants from tomorrow, with customers able to order food for collection or deliveryon its website.

Last month, Nando’s re-opened the kitchens of four restaurants in London and two in Manchester for deliveries.

It said it is now re-opening sites in cities such as Glasgow, Edinburgh, Aberdeen, Liverpool, Birmingham, Coventry, Leicester and Belfast, after “successfully” running the trial.

The chain said it will serve from a “reduced” menu but will still serve popular items such as peri-peri chicken wings, butterfly chicken, halloumi sticks and peri chips.

The company said that all click and collect orders must be placed online via Nandos.co.uk to avoid queues and keep customers and staff safe.

Customers were also “encouraged not to travel to the restaurant unless they are picking up a collect order at their allotted time”.

Nando’s said there is PPE available to staff to wear and they have also been encouraged to wash their hands more regularly.

Restaurants at Springfield Quay in Glasgow and Fountain Park in Edinburgh are now open for collection and delivery while the branch in Belmont Street in Aberdeen is open for collection.
