Nando's Dover - St James

You know the drill with Nando's, but this St James location is where Dover goes when it wants something better than a chippy without the faff. It's the kind of place where families pile in on a Saturday, groups of mates grab a table mid-week, and you're never quite sure if you'll queue at the counter or bag a booth. The peri-peri chicken is reliable—genuinely good if you're not expecting haute cuisine—and the sides actually matter here (the corn's a winner). It's casual enough that you won't feel out of place in your work gear, but put-together enough that it works for a low-key meal out.
