CHICKEN is back on the menu in Basingstoke with Nando’s now open for delivery.

Both of the town’s restaurants, in Festival Place and St Michael’s Retail Park, are offering an online delivery service.

The fast food favourite temporarily closed its doors in March as the government announced the start of lockdown.

But now, after 11-and-a-half long weeks, the retailer is back open for business.

And to make your Nando’s even cheekier, both Basingstoke outlets are now offering free delivery, according to their websites.

Orders can also be made via the Deliveroo app.

The restaurant’s current opening hours are listed as midday until 9pm every day.

In an update to customers on June 9, a spokesperson from the company said: "We’re gradually firing our grills back up across the country for new Nando’s Delivery service and for a limited time offering free delivery too!

"If you’d prefer to pick up your peri-peri, most of our restaurants will also be offering Click and Collect available through online ordering.

"The safety of our customers and our team is our highest priority, so we’ve been working hard over the past few weeks to develop new measures in line with government guidelines.

"We’re still not open for eat in or takeaway orders via the phone or in person, but you can now get your peri-peri fix at home by ordering online from selected restaurants."
