NANDO’S has confirmed it will open its restaurant in Bridgwater’s Northgate Yard unit in one week’s time.

With a social media post, Northgate Unit said Nando’s will open on Wednesday, June 28.

The South African-Portuguese-inspired chicken chain will be located opposite Scott Cinemas, which opened in October at the town's entertainment hub.

Earlier this month signs were installed at the site along with window signs that said: “A new home for PERi-PERi, opening soon.”

The chain's menu offers butterfly chicken, thighs, wings, burgers, wraps, pittas, salads, and platters.

It also has vegetarian and vegan options such as its great imitator wrap, beanie burger, and grilled mushroom and halloumi pitta.
