Nando’s Ordering Hack Claims £3.50 Saving by Using Two Kids’ Meals

Whether it works can depend on staff discretion rather than a stated policy.

Overview

  • Money-saving influencer Jordan Cox says ordering two children’s chicken breast meals at £6.50 each can deliver roughly the same food as a Chicken Butterfly for £3.50 less.
  • Each kids’ meal includes two small sides and an apple juice, bringing the total to £13 and adding drinks you would otherwise pay for.
  • Nando’s lists the Chicken Butterfly as two grilled breast fillets, with nutritional information citing about 330 calories for the chicken alone.
  • Readers report mixed experiences, with some saying staff routinely allow adults to buy kids’ meals and others doubting they would follow through once in the restaurant.
  • Coverage notes no official company guidance and suggests enforcement varies by branch, a point gaining traction as diners look to cut costs at the 470-plus UK and Ireland outlets.
