Autumn has arrived, and so has LEON's brand-new menu—made extra special as the beloved restaurant celebrates its 20th anniversary.
To mark the occasion, LEON has brought back some of the dishes customers have “loved the most over the years,” so naturally, I had to try it for myself.
My team and I headed to LEON in Holborn, where we scoured the entire menu to decide which dish would bring the most satisfaction to our palates.
Although I’m usually a wrap enthusiast (LEON’s Smokey Paprika Chicken Wrap is my personal favourite), I opted for the new Chicken Caesar Burger (RRP £6.99).
The burger consisted of a crispy-coated chicken thigh with rich parmesan honey mustard mayo, provolone cheese, lettuce, and zingy pickles.
Despite its questionable presentation, the chicken was surprisingly succulent and paired beautifully with the sauce.
Given that LEON is a fast-food restaurant, I wasn’t expecting the picture-perfect burgers from the advertisements, but I was pleasantly surprised with my choice—it’s something I would gladly order again.
My colleague Amy chose the Sicilian Chicken Meatballs (RRP £6.99), inspired by the flavours of Sicily.
LEON’s chicken meatballs are made with Italian cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, capers, and fennel seeds, served with their signature tomato sauce, a dollop of basil pesto, and brown rice.
She was happy with her meal, accompanied by classic waffle fries and a TripMy other colleagues enjoyed their choices as well, eagerly diving into wraps, burgers, and rice boxes, with the Chicken Caesar Burger being the crowd favourite.
The new birthday menu also features items like the spicy 'n' saucy loaded Korean Kimchi Fries (RRP £3.99), the Honeycomb Latte (RRP £4.20 for regular), and the Lucky Katsu (RRP £7.99), which consists of golden chicken nuggets coated in a creamy katsu sauce.
Our experience at LEON was exactly what we expected—delicious, quick, and a fantastic lunchtime option.
LEON’s Autumn menu is now available at all LEON Restaurants.
