Portuguese Roll sits 8th of 16 on price in Nando's Dips & Extras section, at £1.00 and 278 kcal. Updated 12 September 2026.
Our rustic Portuguese roll, riding solo. Baked in the UK and served with a side of butter.
The £1.00 figure came from a third party listing rather than from Nando's, which means it may reflect a delivery menu. Delivery prices sit above in restaurant prices before any fee is added, so treat this as the ceiling rather than the till price.
Allergens Nando's declares
Shared kitchens mean cross-contamination is possible. Ask in the restaurant if an allergy is severe.

Everything You Need to Know About Nando's Portuguese Roll
How to order Portuguese Roll at Nando's
Counter, kiosk and app all carry it. The Nando's app adds collection and delivery. It is filed under Dips & Extras. Availability is set per branch, so a smaller site may not carry it at all.
Nando's Portuguese Roll price in 2026
The Nando's Portuguese Roll price in 2026 is £1.00 on the figures we hold. The figure came from a third party listing rather than from Nando's, so read it as a ceiling. Within the Dips & Extras section that puts it 8th of 16 on price. Expect more at airport, motorway and station branches than on a high street, and more again through a delivery app.
A lighter choice in the same section
Garlic PERinaise sits in the same part of the menu at 176 kcal, which is 102 fewer than this for £1.00. That swap is the single biggest change available inside this section, and it needs no substitution or special request at the counter.
Where it sits on price
7 items cost less than this one in the Dips & Extras section and 8 cost more, out of 16 we hold a price for. The closest thing to it on price is Cheddar Cheese at £1.00, so those two are the real comparison when you are deciding.
What 278 kcal means here
278 kcal is well above the Dips & Extras average. That is a normal single course for most people, and it leaves room for a side. 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.
Diet marking
Nando's marks this as vegetarian. That is the chain's own classification of the recipe rather than a statement about how it is cooked, and vegan marking in particular sits alongside shared equipment at most of these brands.
Pro Tips for Ordering Portuguese Roll
How much of it you actually use
A dip or sauce figure covers one pot as served. Two pots is double, and this is the part of an order people forget when they add up a meal. It is also the easiest thing to halve without noticing.
Allergens declared
Nando's declares 3 of the 14 allergens UK law requires to be listed for this item: cereals containing gluten, milk and soya. 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.
Protein for the calories
It gives 2.1g of protein per 100 kcal, against a menu average of 5.3g across everything we hold for Nando's. That is a weak ratio for this menu, which matters more than the raw protein figure when you are comparing two items of different sizes. On raw protein it ranks 8th of 18 in its section.
