    I probably shouldn't be all that surprised that this is actually a chain of coffee shops, and in a way it seemed to be a lot like Prets (as they call it in England). The odd thing was that I don't seem to remember seeing a lot of them around, but that is probably because I wasn't paying to much attention. It wasn't too bad, and I did appreciate their ready to eat breakfast options, including the sausages and eggs, though I have to admit that it is certainly not like a proper breakfast that you get at a proper cafe. The tea was okay as well, though I can't say that it really stood out. Then again, what would you expect from a chain store in the middle of Heathrow Airport.

    Meatless meatballs
    Liz S.

    Leon is a London-based, Mediterranean-inflected fast food chain with a large presence at Heathrow. I was looking for a pre-plane meal in T2 and this did the trick. Their options are reasonably priced and semi-healthy, with lots of thought around dietary restrictions. The meatless meatballs, made with eggplant and olives, were super flavorful. Service was good and food came out quickly. Branding is on point. This chain would do well in the US.

    Oh my God, I travel a ton, close to 200,000 this year over 4million since the airlines started counting This place is my savior... I will book all Euro flights they here hair so I can have some real organic and gluten free food. Nothing like ordering and hearing "all our plates are gluten free" !! Yea! Don't miss this spot

    Welcome to Heathrow T2 en-route to Ireland

    Had a 10 hour layover in Heathrow en-route from Indiana to Ireland for my father Leon's funeral. Gob-smacked when we arrived at Terminal 2 and saw this. My father was also a Taurus. Needless to say we ate there a couple of times.

    Chicken Aioli Box
    Jason S.

    The food is pretty solid for an airport, but outside an airport, I probably wouldn't eat here. The food is pretty cheap, but it's pretty bland, especially the rice. Only adding heaps of the moderately spicy red sauce will make it somewhat exciting. Though it is filling, the chicken box doesn't actually come with much chicken but it is a pretty good combination of ingredients. The hummus was pretty decent for a fast casual place, though the accompanying pita was bad. The fries were solid but also lukewarm, so make sure to ask for fresh ones.

    Just arrived from SFO and connecting onto Cologne. We stumbled upon LEON and nice to know they have vegan options :)

    I had the full English breakfast poached egg pot, and I would highly recommend, it was lovely! Sausage, beans and bacon on top of a poached egg at the bottom of the tub, a really fab gluten free option Staff are genuinely lovely and work really well in busy times when there are long queues, two chaps in particular had a great repor with customers, they'll have you smiling by the time your order is ready trust me!

    Ruby red porridge and Strawberry lemonade
    Thomas L.

    Leon's is my go to place for tasty food that isn't too heavy but packs a punch of flavour. As my return flight out of London Heathrow was a bit earlier, I tried out some of their breakfast options. The ruby red porridge was great - yummy oatmeal topped with an incredible cashew butter and berry topping! Great comfort food coupled with a refreshing strawberry lemonade. I will need to come back to try their poached eggs bowls.

    Got the grilled chicken sammich no tomato so as to not make a complete mess on the plane. Great food. Co pilot said it's all natural and told me the breakfast is great too. Will try next time I fly through LHR.

Sure, we more or less mastered the fast casual movement with spots like Chipotle and Noodles & Company, but we haven't seem to have perfected a place like Leon yet, which has for years now been among my favorite chains in London. Fortunately, the Heathrow Terminal 3 location doesn't drop the ball. Star 1: How were the service and atmosphere? For an airport location, the T3 Leon spot does a fantastic job of replicating the proper stand alone spots scattered across the city. Service is snappy even when the lines get lengthy, and the folks behind the counter maintain their charm. The one notable downside is that the menu is pretty severely reduced, and I was disappointed to find that several options were missing from what I'd spotted in the city a day prior. Star Granted. Star 2: How were the portions relative to the cost? I was fully expecting to pay ten pounds plus given I was at Heathrow; so you can imagine how far my jaw dropped when I saw that my Chicken Hot Box came in at under seven pounds for a good portion of grub. Great deal. Star Granted. Stars 3 and 4: How was the food? This was good stuff - fresh brown rice with fresh and flavorful chicken accompanied by cabbage and a garlic aioli that brought it all together nicely. Spot on. Dual Stars Granted. Star 5: Would you eat here every day if you could? I love Leon, and would gladly eat there daily, but this location loses a star for having the reduced menu. No Star Granted.

Stopped at Leon before my flight back to the US. They had a selection of quite reasonably priced (for London) items ranging from poached eggs, porridge cooked with milk, to smoked salmon muffin. The girls behind the counter were so nice. I mean, they were working 7am Sunday! Bless their hearts. A good sign of whether it's a good restaurant is whether the airport workers eat there. In this case, all the bobbies were grabbing their morning teas/ coffees here. Very good sign as those fellas are pretty disconcerting! Only minor criticism is that the porridge is quite rich - cooked with lots of cream or milk - tasty as it maybe, I am a lactose fiend and my tummy was struggling a little on the flight.

Nestled in a bustling area, the restaurant's ambiance is warm and welcoming, characterized by its casual yet stylish decor. The interior is a blend of rustic wood, bright murals, and quirky light fixtures, creating a lively and inviting atmosphere that is perfect for both casual lunches and fun dinner outings. The food is undeniably the star of the show. Known for their flame-grilled peri-peri chicken, the menu offers a variety of spice levels ranging from mild to extra hot, catering to all palates. The chicken is juicy, tender, and bursting with flavor, perfectly marinated in Nando's famous peri-peri sauce.

The addition of bottomless soft drinks and the self-serve sauce station enhances the overall dining experience, allowing guests to customize their meals to their liking. My favorite dish to order is the Chicken Butterfly, which is delicious and has a bold, tasty kick. The entrée includes two butterflied chicken breast filets that are flame-grilled to perfection. The chicken is marinated in Nando's unique peri-peri sauce and is full of smokey, spicy, and tangy tastes. You may personalize the heat level to your preference, from moderate to extremely hot.The meal comes with your choice of two sides,I prefer to serve it alongside hot rice and grilled vegetables.

We were able to place an Uber Eats order and had it delivered to our hotel for when we arrived and I was way more impressed with the food than I thought I would be. The menu is fully vegetarian with vegan modifications for any items that are not fully vegan because of using dairy cheese. There are too many options to choose from, and prices are very reasonable. We had to try a little bit of everything: BBQ Chicken Lollipops, Masala Fish, Margarita Pizza, Doner Wrap, and of course the famous Warrior Fries (a must order!). Everything=chef's kiss. I couldn't believe it was all vegan, especially the fish: I had to do a double take! The Warrior Fries seem to be one of the big things here and I see why: I couldn't stop eating them! Super Singh's is true vegan comfort food. The customer service is also phenomenal: I found them on Instagram and, being the indecisive person I am, reached out asking for recommendations. I got prompt and kind responses for every question asked! The fact that they are responsive on social media is a huge deal for me, especially when there are questions that need answers. And the portions are pretty darn good for what you pay-just do yourself a favor and go order you some vegan junk food from Mr. Singh, you won't regret it!
