"I live very locally to this branch of Nando 's and have eaten here several times before with family members. I won 't be visiting ever again, and it 's making me think twice about ordering a delivery from any restaurant! I 've just walked past at about 7.30pm, and as I did, I saw a delivery driver standing in front of the delivery window, turn his head to the right and proceed to place his hand against his nose, blowing the snotty contents onto the pavement next to him. He then turned his head back in to the delivery window, and carried on waiting to take the order he was about to deliver to some poor, unfortunate, and unsuspecting customer! So, I 've telephoned the restaurant and asked for the Manager. Joao answered, and assured me that he is the Manager. I explained to him what I had just seen happen, and his response was that it was unfortunate that you had witnessed that, but, we are not responsible for the behaviour of the delivery drivers, and that it was a Deliveroo driver. I responded that it was Nando 's food that was being delivered, and that indeed he was responsible! He asked for my name. I declined. What difference does it make if he knows my name or not? This kind of disgusting and unhygienic behaviour was NOT OKAY pre Covid, let alone now! You 've definitely lost mine and my family as customers. Joao, quality control IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY! It doesn 't stop when the food leaves that delivery window. This is why I always wash my hands after accepting a delivery from any restaurant, before plating up, and again before eating...and after seeing this foul behaviour, I really don 't think I 'm being too careful!"

"We 'd been meaning to go to Crafthouse for a while and finally managed it for a Sunday lunch on a blustery Sunday the offer was very reasonable compared to some prices £25 for 2 courses. We came up in the private elevator from the road a nice touch; but then were left waiting in a corridor for 5 minutes whilst staff rushed around a half full dining room, then taken straight to our seats in the bar side of the restaurant we would have had a view of Boar lane and South Leeds if the blinds across the windows hadn 't;t all been fully down I can appreciate there would have been some glare earlier in the day, but the sun had already set when we arrived and so half our view was of greige. Service was a bit 'by the numbers ' there was a set order they worked in and we wouldn 't be allowed to order food at the same time as a drink even though we were ready. Starters were OK cured salmon was tasty and well presented, though the accompanying slice of brioche looked a little mean and unevenly toasted; the prawn cocktail was very salty prawns with a limp and tired salad and not enough Marie Rose. Mains were where it all fell apart we were offered beef or lamb either well done or pink and both settled on well, as medium was not allowed; Both meats arrived rare, and though tasty were very tough and gristly cuts, with a lot of visible fat around and through the meat. Veg were OK, though didn 't;t feel particularly freshly cooked. With a (very good) rum old fashioned at £18 the total came to £76 including a 12.5% service charge. Ambiance was noisy, with some dance ish music a bit too loud for my tastes perhaps closing the door on the very noisy group in the glassed off 'private ' dining room would have helped. I 'm glad we went, but there are much better options for the price, or less don;t think we 'll return."
