Nando’s said it champions its heritage by working with South African based designers across all aspects of its restaurants. At Nando’s Chorley this includes intricate ceiling features, geometric wall patterns, and striking Southern African artwork, inspired by the landscapes of South Africa.

Councillor Alistair Bradley, Leader of Chorley Council, previously expressed his excitement about the new addition to the Market Walk.

He said: “I’m delighted that Nando’s is seeking to set up shop in Chorley.

“It’s one of the most recognisable restaurant chains across the country and their decision to choose Chorley really highlights the success of Market Walk and the wider town centre offer.”
