Nando's food hygiene ratings
There are 495 Nando's sites in the United Kingdom with a published food hygiene rating. Each is inspected by its own local council, the chain does not rate itself, and a rating earned in one town says nothing about the branch in the next. 36 sites are in Scotland, which uses a pass-or-improve scheme rather than a score out of five, and so are not counted in the figures below.
How Nando's scores
99% of rated Nando's branches hold the top score of 5, and 100% hold a 4 or better. The chain averages 4.98 out of 5, a strikingly consistent record, well above the roughly 70% of all UK food businesses that manage a 5.
| 5 out of 5 | 448 | 99% | |

| 2 out of 5 | 1 | <1% | |

A further 41 branches are awaiting inspection, exempt, or in Scotland, none of which sit on the 0–5 scale.

Questions about Nando's
What is Nando's's food hygiene rating?
Nando's does not have a single rating. Every one of its 495 UK sites is inspected and rated separately by its own local council. 99% of them hold the top score of 5, and the chain averages 4.98 out of 5.
Is Nando's clean?
By the only measure a regulator publishes, 99% of Nando's branches were found to have very good hygiene standards at their last inspection. But a rating describes a branch, not a brand, and 1 branches score 2 or below.
Which Nando's has the worst hygiene rating?
The lowest-rated branches are listed on this page, worst first. 1 hold a rating of 2 or below out of 454 rated sites.
Who inspects Nando's?
Not Nando's. Environmental health officers at each site's local council carry out the inspection, unannounced, and set the rating. The Food Standards Agency publishes the result. A chain cannot rate itself, and cannot change a rating.
