Everything You Need to Know About Nando's Fairtrade Hot Chocolate

How to order Fairtrade Hot Chocolate at Nando's

You can order Fairtrade Hot Chocolate at the counter, at a Nando's kiosk, or in the Nando's app for collection or delivery. It is filed under Drinks. Availability is set per branch, so a smaller site may not carry it at all.

Nando's Fairtrade Hot Chocolate price in 2026

There is no verified Nando's Fairtrade Hot Chocolate price for 2026. Nando's prices per branch and publishes no national list for it, so the accurate figure is the one your own branch shows in 2026. Any site quoting a single exact national price for this item is guessing, and we would rather show the gap.

Finding it near you

We list 488 Nando's branches across 4 of the four UK nations, with the London W postcode area holding the most at 17. Menus vary by site, so a listing here is national rather than a promise about your nearest one. The Nando's app confirms it in seconds.

Sugar in plain terms

25.6g of sugar works out at roughly 6 teaspoons. The adult reference intake is 90g a day and the NHS free sugars guideline is tighter at 30g, so one of these covers a real portion of either figure. A smaller size, or fewer pumps of syrup, moves this number more than anything else on the order.

What 185 kcal means here

185 kcal is well above the Drinks average. On its own it is a small addition to a day rather than a meal. The 2,000 kcal figure printed on UK menus is a reference intake for an average adult, not a target, and it is the number these percentages are worked against.

A lighter choice in the same section

Mimosa sits in the same part of the menu at 84 kcal, which is 101 fewer than this. That swap is the single biggest change available inside this section, and it needs no substitution or special request at the counter.

Pro Tips for Ordering Fairtrade Hot Chocolate

Ordering it the way you want

Size and milk are the two levers on a drink like this, and both move the calorie figure more than any syrup does. A smaller cup with semi skimmed milk lands well below the same drink made large with whole milk. Nando's publishes figures for the standard build, so any change you ask for moves you off the number in the table above.

Protein for the calories

It gives 5.6g of protein per 100 kcal, against a menu average of 5.3g across everything we hold for Nando's. That is a little better than the menu average, which matters more than the raw protein figure when you are comparing two items of different sizes. On raw protein it ranks 2nd of 61 in its section.

Allergens declared

Nando's declares 1 of the 14 allergens UK law requires to be listed for this item: milk. A declaration covers the recipe and not the kitchen, and every one of these chains prepares food in shared fryers and on shared surfaces. For a severe allergy the only reliable check is asking staff on the day.
