Nando's Bradford - Centenary Square

You're right in the thick of Bradford's retail heartland here, perfectly positioned for refuelling between shops or catching up with mates after work. The floor-to-ceiling windows give you prime people-watching real estate over Centenary Square, and the buzz inside matches the energy of the city centre crowd streaming past. The chicken's as good as any Nando's – that familiar peri-peri hit done properly – but what sets this branch apart is the location and the staff who actually seem to care. Service moves at a decent clip even when it's rammed with families doing the Saturday shopping circuit. At around £12-15 for a proper feed, it's solid value in the city centre, especially when you factor in being able to collapse here after battling the crowds at Broadway or Kirkgate Market.
