Leon RestaurantsNewest Review: ... not vast and they only serve a handful of items so if you were to go daily it would become boring. What they do make however, is always healthy and of the same quality every time. Their dishes are often 'Modern European' and they have a selection of hot meals (such as curry or meatballs), salads or wraps. They also serve some desserts and a great selection of drinks from fresh juices to hot beverages. There is nothing from the menu that I cannot vouch for. Everything is wonderful. If you're in a hurry this is the place to go if you want to be healthy. I can strongly recommend the chicken supper food salad. Yes, it might be more expensive... more |

Leon is an ethical and healthy fast food chain in London. They pride themselves on ethically sourced and healthy food for people in a hurry. I have only been to the Carnaby St outlet so can only comment on that one. The food served a Leon is simply delicious.

Do you want reasonably priced food and drink in London with a strong commitment to ethical sourcing. May I suggest Leon, one of my favourite places for a cool drink, a coffee or a light snack. Leon is a London mini chain comprising of eight restaurants located all over the capital. I have passed by the Strand branch and ate in the Cannon Street and Ludgate Hill ones. Leon serve a range of simple freshly cooked tasty food and drink from breakfasts to lunch and dinners and all the bits in between. Leon is a very right on chain and have a commitment to using fresh seasonal produce and where possible organic and fair trade. All their meat and eggs are free ... Read the complete review

Leon is an absolute must if you are after refreshingly healthy fast food in London. I'm surprised that there aren't more branches across the UK. My favourite is the Moroccan Meatballs set. The curry set is OK, but I find it a little dry. The cookies are very nice too. You end up eating a lot, but never feel guilty for doing so as the food seems to be full of vitamins and feel-good items. I have been to many branches all over London and the quality of the food is the same in each one, but the atmosphere in each is different. Some are quiet in the evenings with candles that make for a nice romantic meal, other are full of tourists and ... Read the complete review

Leon is one of my favourite places to eat in London. See the website for the full menu but what I love about Leon is the fact the chicken is free range, there is a daily special and the prices range from £5-£7 for a meal. I haven't been to McDonalds in some time but I think that comparing a large value meal from McDonalds and a large, tasty, nutritious meal from Leon is really uncomparable. My favourite dishes are the chicken and aoli which comes with fresh slaw and a flat bread. This fills me up all day [although I can usually squeeze in some delicious pecan pie or brownie!]. If I was being critical there are a couple of things that I don't enjoy ... Read the complete review

I absolutely love Leon! The surprising find of this wonderful restaurant has really lifted my spirits for lunch times - I was on my last sandwich from M&S and Pret, and don't think I could have stomached any more bread and calories without breaking down and weeping! I've never sat in Leon for dinner so can only comment on it's lunch. Branch: There are as many as 8 branches dotted around London but the the branch I visit is the Spitalfields one. It is tucked in between Scarlet bar and Kanteen and well located to the market itself. It has stiff competition from the rest of the surrounding restaurants, but despite this, I always see it busy at lunch ... Read the complete review
