Nando’s is bringing its world-famous flame-grilled PERi-PERi chicken to the Big Apple for the very first time, launching an exciting East Coast pop-up experience packed with food, culture, music and community – and best of all, it’s completely free.
Opening from Saturday 27th June, the Nando’s NYC pop-up invites New Yorkers to experience the brand’s iconic menu in the heart of SoHo. Whether you’re discovering Nando’s for the first time or reconnecting with a long-time favourite, guests can enjoy signature dishes including the Sunset Burger, Wing Roulette and the legendary PERi-Salted Chips. The famous sauce station will also be in full effect, featuring unlimited access to Nando’s beloved range of flavours, from the classic Lemon & Herb to the fan-favourite PERi-PERi Saka.
Nando’s has teamed up with local institution Utopia Bagels for a special limited-edition collaboration. Combining Utopia’s renowned freshly baked bagels with Nando’s signature PERi-PERi flavour, the exclusive creation will be available on Saturday 4th and Saturday 11th July.
The celebrations extend far beyond the menu. Nando’s is bringing together an exciting lineup of talent and community events throughout the residency. UK rap star Aitch and streamer Max Khadar will kick things off with a UK-meets-New York watch party for the England vs Panama match, combining football, food and plenty of lively debate. Elsewhere, Nia Archives will host a special evening of music and PERi-PERi, while global music platform NTS Radio curates a night featuring A$AP Nast and special guests. Additional events, including an exclusive watch party hosted by Marlon, will continue throughout the pop-up’s run.
Beyond the food and entertainment, visitors can explore a rotating selection of local creatives, independent vendors and interactive experiences. From fashion and accessories to handmade art and custom pieces, the space will spotlight brands including Coco Cultr, Stitched in the City, My Perlitas and Xtina’s Werld, helping to showcase the creativity and energy that define New York culture.
With free food, live events, exclusive collaborations, limited-edition merchandise and surprise guest appearances all on offer, the Nando’s NYC pop-up is set to become one of the city’s must-visit destinations this summer.
The Nando’s NYC pop-up runs from 27th June to 19th July, with event tickets released every Monday. For the latest updates, follow Nando’s on Instagram and keep an eye out for further announcements, special guests and exclusive experiences still to come.
