An Edinburgh Nandos restaurant has been forced to close temporarily after a number of food shortages affected the popular chain.
This week, around 50 sites across the UK have been reported to have shut their doors for a short time after supply issues and staff shortages caused huge disruption.
Known for their famous peri-peri-chicken and large selection of sides, Nandos confirmed to Edinburgh Live that a host of restaurants have been impacted, including one in the capital.

On Tuesday, the chain updated their website to inform customers that the Ocean Terminal eatery will be temporarily closed, with remaining staff being sent out to support suppliers.
Currently, the Lothian Road and Fountain Park sites are still open to customers.
According to Nandos, it is hoped that Ocean Terminal, along with two closed restaurants in Glasgow, will be able to reopen from Saturday (August 21).
A spokesperson for the chain said: "The UK food industry has been experiencing disruption across its supply chain in recent weeks due to staff shortages and a number of our restaurants have been impacted.
"However, since Monday, a team of our brilliant Nandocas have been supporting our key suppliers onsite – working in partnership to help get things moving again, and this has already had a positive impact on affected restaurants.
"From this Saturday, as a result of the hard work behind the scenes, it is our intention that all of our restaurants will be open again, and all our customers can enjoy their favourite PERi-PERi chicken.”
