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.
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.
Nandos fans say as Aldi stocks a replica range - including their peri-peri fries for just £1.49
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.

Average house price forecast to jump £86,300 by 2029
House price growth expectations have been reduced for this year amid wider global uncertainties, according to a forecast. But the potential for house price growth over the next five years has been upgraded, due to a more relaxed approach to mortgage affordability tests, according to the predictions from property firm Savills. It expects to see house prices across Britain rise by 1.0% on average across this year and by 24.5% over the next five years. Previously, it had forecast house prices to increase by 4.0% this year, with a 23.4% rise over the next five years. Recent economic and geopolitical uncertainty has contributed to a weaker first half of 2025 than previously anticipated, Savills said. It said market activity in 2025 had also been complicated by how buyers reacted to stamp duty changes, with a surge in activity early in the year as buyers rushed to beat the deadline. Stamp duty applies in England and Northern Ireland. However, many mortgage lenders have recently made changes which potentially allow people to borrow more. Savills said the more relaxed approach to mortgage affordability tests should support both house prices and the number of house sales. Based on its new forecast, it expects the average house price to increase £86,300 by 2029. It is forecasting an average house price of £448,600 by the end of 2029, up from an average of £362,300 by mid-year in 2025. Lucian Cook, head of residential research at Savills, said: 'Interest rates have fallen as expected, giving buyers a bit more financial capacity than they had a year ago. 'But a lot has changed over the last six months. Greater geopolitical uncertainty – including tariffs and trade wars – has made predicting the precise path of further cuts more challenging.' Savills said it expects concerns over the prospect of future tax increases to weigh most heavily on the top end of the market. Mr Cook continued: 'Recent easing of mortgage regulations, including more flexibility on affordability stress tests and higher allowances for loans above 4.5 times income, is likely to boost transaction volumes, particularly by helping more first-time buyers get on the ladder.' House sales across 2025 are projected to reach 1.04 million by the year end, in line with previous forecasts. While elevated supply levels may temper price growth, Savills said that it maintains a positive outlook for 2025 overall despite the slow start. Emily Williams, director of research at Savills, said: 'We anticipate that buyer demand will pick up heading into early autumn, particularly among first-time buyers and mortgaged home movers, driven by an expected base rate cut in August and a more competitive mortgage market.' Land Registry and Nationwide Building Society data was used for part of the research. Here is the revised house price forecast from Savills for growth over the five-year period between 2025 and 2029: North West, 31.2% Scotland, 29.4% Wales, 28.2% Yorkshire and the Humber, 28.2% West Midlands, 27.6% North East, 26.4% South East, 20.4% South West, 20.4% East Midlands, 20.3% East of England, 19.2% London, 15.3%.

The average British house price is set to surge by 2029
House price growth expectations for the current year have been significantly scaled back amidst broader global uncertainties, according to a new forecast from property firm Savills. However, the outlook for the next five years has been upgraded, largely attributed to a more relaxed approach to mortgage affordability tests. Savills now anticipates average house prices across Britain to rise by just 1.0 per cent this year, a notable reduction from its previous forecast of 4.0 per cent. Conversely, the firm has increased its five-year projection, expecting a 24.5 per cent increase over that period, up from an earlier estimate of 23.4 per cent. The property expert noted that recent economic and geopolitical instability has contributed to a weaker first half of 2025 than initially foreseen. Furthermore, market activity in 2025 has been complicated by buyer behaviour in response to stamp duty changes, which saw a surge in transactions early in the year as buyers rushed to meet deadlines in England and Northern Ireland. However, many mortgage lenders have recently made changes that potentially allow people to borrow more. Savills said the more relaxed approach to mortgage affordability tests should support both house prices and the number of house sales. Based on its new forecast, it expects the average house price to increase £86,300 by 2029.

Minimum level of retirement income needed to prevent surge in pensioner poverty, MPs warn
Ministers should ensure a retired people have a minimum level of income to prevent a surge in pensioner poverty, MPs have warned. It comes after the work and pensions secretary Liz Kendall said Britain faced a 'tsunami of pensioner poverty' without major reform to the system as she opened the door to an increase in the state pension age. Age UK has found that two million pensioners are already in poverty, with the number expected to rise. Now MPs on the Commons Work and Pensions Committee say a new national strategy to tackle the problem among older people is needed. They have urged the government to set and deliver a minimum level of retirement income, enough for a "dignified, socially acceptable standard of living" in later life. The report also warns that, as people age, the health and social care systems risk becoming unsustainable if ministers fail to tackle the effect poverty has on ill-health. Among the worrying long-term trends that "threaten to undermine pension adequacy", are people renting into later life, the report adds. It also calls for ministers to ensure those entitled to pensions credits of up to £4,000 a year receive them. Current take up is under 70 per cent, with an estimated 700,000 households missing out. Receiving pension credit can also help older people access other benefits such as housing benefit, council tax support, the warm homes discount, a free TV licence, and help with their dental treatment. The report warns: "After a decline in pensioner poverty in the 2000s, the number of pensioners in relative low income started to rise again from 2010. This has been exacerbated by increases in the cost of living since 2021." It continued: "In practice, this means cutting back on essentials, like food, energy use and seeing friends, in an attempt to manage costs. Health experts explained the implications for health. Financial hardship can accelerate the ageing process, making it more likely that an older person will enter hospital or need care." Debbie Abrahams, the Labour MP who chairs the committee, said: "To boost incomes, the government needs to come up with a strategy to increase pension credit take-up. It's a scandal that so many have missed out for so many years, often through an aversion to claiming benefits altogether, or lack of support.' She added: "Ultimately, the government should decide what it thinks is enough for a dignified retirement, and then work to ensure that all pensioners are on at least that level. "Faced with a combination of high energy costs, ill-health and ever higher rates of pensioners in more costly privately rented accommodation, tackling pensioner poverty is not simply a DWP (Department for Work and Pensions) issue. So, we're calling for a nationwide, cross-government strategy for an ageing society that should be rooted in equity and wellbeing." On Tuesday, chancellor Rachel Reeves said that a review into raising the state pension age is needed to ensure the system was "sustainable and affordable". The state pension age is currently 66, but will rise to 67 by 2028. A government spokesperson said: "Supporting pensioners is a top priority, and thanks to our commitment to the triple lock, millions will see their yearly state pension rise by up to £1,900 by the end of this parliament. "We have also run the biggest-ever campaign to boost pension credit take-up, with nearly 60,000 extra pensioner households being awarded the benefit, worth on average around £4,300 a year. "But we know there is a real risk that tomorrow's pensioners will be poorer than today's, which is why we are reviving the Pension Commission, to tackle the barriers that stop too many people from saving." Caroline Abrahams, charity director at Age UK, said: "We warmly welcome this thoughtful and wide-ranging select committee report, which comes closer to providing a thorough and progressive strategic overview of the issues facing older people on low incomes and proposing workable solutions than anything successive governments have produced in recent years.'
