      I went once to pick up a halloumi wrap meal for the wife, damn set me back £13. Expensive slightly healthier fast food.

      They started out great, food was tasty. They expanded rapidly, got sold to some equity firm I think, and then profit took over everything else.

    4. Sunshinetrooper87 on

      Never heard of them. Then again we don’t get much up in Inverness. 

    5. Pale_Goose_918 on

      Presumably some locations are now extremely unattractive since they’re no longer trying to sell to Asda and petrol station customers.

      I remember them being pretty good when I last went years ago but went back recently and it was disappointing. They pride themselves on potato waffles now that are a bit shite (always make sure your self declared “signature” isn’t written in turd) and I swear the wraps used to be far better.

      I usually get breakfast/lunch paid for and have to frequent services.

      Healthy food, especially at breakfast is always an option I try and get. However, their prices got ridiculous to even justify (when it wasn’t my money).

      A small breakfast bowl and coffee was something like £13, whereas McDonald’s on the kiosk across was £6 for more food and a coffee.

      The food wasn’t awful, and in the early days Leon was really nice. But later on it just seemed uncompetitive in every way

      If you are the same price as some independent, cool and unique place for a wrap. I will just got the independent. Like why not?

      I live in London, why would I ever go for Leon as opposed to anything else if its all 13 quid?

    9. itsheadfelloff on

      I get a lot of offers to use at Leon but I’ve never actually seen a store in the wild

    10. Glad_Librarian_3553 on

      Never even heard of them, that’s probably got something to do with it lol

    11. Atlantean_Raccoon on

      Granted I’m from the countryside, but I’ve never even heard of this place

    12. Exxtraa on

      I actually enjoy their wraps. Shame. Had always hoped one would open up near me but looks unlikely now.

    13. Ok_Bumblebee_2196 on

      I just grabbed a Leon while passing through Kings Cross station for my commute home and it was absolutely heaving. Always is.

      One of the few safe gluten-free fast food spots, hope they will continue to sell their nuggets and waffle fries in supermarkets.

    15. Reallyboringname2 on

      The only time I’ve ever had food poisoning in my life. Will not be missed.

    16. Zephinism on

      I don’t think they’re a thing here. I feel sorry for everyone who is losing their jobs right before Christmas.

    17. Wipedout89 on

      The only takeaway place that does loads of proper gluten free. It’s expensive but I always paid it because it made me feel like a normal person who’s entitled to eat chicken nuggets like everyone else

    18. Sad-Peace on

      Ahh this is a shame, I wondered why their branch near me was closed today. I really liked their rice boxes for a healthy fast food type choice.

    19. FireRedStudio on

      When it first opened in London on the strand I’d go all the time, but over the years the locations increased and the food got worse. I went maybe 6 months ago and the food was grim, overpriced and sloppy service.

    20. mashupthedance on

      Only ever see them in service stations, tried it once, overpriced and bland

    21. rainbowyOctopus on

      Used to love Leon but the last few rice boxes I’ve had have been 3/4 rice with virtually no topping. The only things that I’ve had that have been okay are the salads and hash browns. Can’t say I’m surprised this has happened.

    22. Olliebkl on

      Recently me and my partner quickly stopped on to get one large waffle fries each, a medium hot choc and a can of coke

      Cost us £9, it all showed up ok the receipt but for some reason £5 or so was taken off???

      Not complaining lol

    23. existentialgoof on

      I went out of my way to try their food at motorway service stations on my way down to and back from France last summer (I live in Scotland where we don’t have this chain). On the way down, I had some kind of spicy chicken wrap which I wasn’t that impressed by. On the way back up, a veggie burger that I can’t remember. It’s a bit of a shame to lose one more option at motorway services in the south of England (if I were ever to be driving back that way), but my overall impression is that they’re somewhat overrated.

    24. AffectionateComb6664 on

      The waffle chips and the breakfast pots are elite. I hope the London Bridge one can stay open somehow

    25. Tortoise_247 on

      I saw this coming from a mile off. Their prices were way too high and they didn’t do meal deals. It’s such a shame as I have gluten intolerance and this place has healthy gluten free options at services unlike most others. I like the chain but it seems they got greedy with pricing

    27. ADenyer94 on

      Noo! One of the few reliable healthy places to get fast food

    28. cocky-funny on

      With their subscription is was actually a very decent place if you’re in central London

    29. MaterialFollowing4 on

      It’s nine quid for an egg, some beans and a filter coffee. Fuck em.
