Nando's responds to Teville Gate restaurant rumours
In February, the owners of the site next to Worthing railway station submitted a planning application to Worthing Borough Council.

In a short but to the point response, a spokesman for the company said: "We aren’t one of the household names."
This comes after the popular poultry chain opened a restaurant in Eastbourne last month.
