The Big Cheese a juicy new burger packed with grilled halloumi, red pepper and pineapple salsa, creamy avocado slices, and slathered in the new Churrasco PERinaise.
But it doesn’t stop there. Halloumi lovers are getting another treat with Halloumi Sticks and a brand new PERi-Honey dip – a sweet, sticky twist that fans are already calling “addictive.”
The Halloumi Sticks & Dip with PERi-Honey will cost £4.95. The dip will also be available as an extra for £1.25.
Also landing on the menu is a new Summer Grains salad which is a mix of chickpeas, dried apricots, lemon oil and yoghurt dressing.
The Summer Grains salad will cost £4.25.
It’ll also be adding Charred Corn, slathered in a garlicky sauce and finished with PERi-Salt and spring onions, all for £5.
And to wash it all down, Nando’s is bringing out a new summer drink.
The Tropical Quencher will retail for £4.25.
New menu items
Here’s what’s coming to Nando’s stores this summer:
- Halloumi Sticks & Dip with PERi-Honey (serves 2) £4.95
- The Big Cheese, £9.25 / £15.50
- Charred Corn, £5.00
- Summer Grains, £4.25
- PERi-Honey, £1.25
- Tropical Quencher, £4.25
Nando’s is also inviting customers to help decide which limited-edition sauce should return to the menu.
Options include former guest flavours such as Smoky Churrasco, Garlic BBQ, and the Fanta collaboration.
The winning flavour is expected to return later this summer.
This initiative follows the recent recent launch of Extra Saucy Wings, now served with PERi-Flamer—a previously off-menu sauce that had circulated among loyal fans online.
PERi-Flamer is now formally available in restaurants and through delivery, marking its first official appearance on the menu.
More recently, Aldi recently launched its own Nando’s-style dupe range, sparking debate among fans about whether it could match up to the real thing.
The new range had a massive variety of menu classics, including a half chicken (£3.99), chicken breast sizzlers (£3.69) or chicken thigh fillets (3.29).
There even offered yummy appetisers, like spicy mixed olives (£1.69) or halloumi sticks with chilli jam (£2.49) to choose from.
