New takeaway with a 'similar vibe to Nando's' opens on busy Sherwood high street

A new chicken shop has opened on Sherwood’s high street. With plenty of takeaways to choose from, people have say they’ll give Perigo ‘a try.’

The new takeaway on Mansfield Road has a menu including burgers, wings and, of course, other chicken options. In Sherwood, people voiced their views on the newest addition to the eatery scene in the area.

Hairdresser Sam Wheeler, 35, who lives in Sherwood, said: “It’s a similar vibe to Nando's with the whole peri peri thing but it looks nic; I did see the balloons out the front on the first few days they had opened. A lot of different people pass through Sherwood or the time of school kids - people finishing work or parents doing the pick up on a school run so I’m sure a new takeaway will go down well.”

Sherwood sales assistant Michelle Burton, 44, said: “It looks nice from the outside so hopefully the food is good too, I’ll give it a try. Sherwood has so many fantastic places to eat whether you’re eating in or taking away so I hope these do well.”

Perigo will be open everyday apart from Sundays, 12PM-10PM. Retired Jackie Bradley, who is 56 years old and from Carrington, said: “It’s nice to see new places replacing places that have closed down, I’m interested to see what a Room Full of Butterflies turns into.

"People always go into takeaways and chicken shops. I'm sure they’ll have their loyal customers.”

Another new chicken shop is to open in Sherwood, and Chick and Shakes will specialise in ‘original handmade crispy chicken.’ While the aforementioned A Room Full of Butterflies, a gallery and a shop, closed earlier this year.
