Leon is a British fast-casual restaurant chain that built its identity around healthier fast food with a Mediterranean influence. It opened its first restaurant in London's Soho and expanded to branches across the capital, in railway stations, retail centres and other United Kingdom cities. The cuisine is Mediterranean-inspired, with wraps, salads, grain boxes, burgers and breakfast items, and the menu emphasises natural ingredients, vegetables and clear nutritional labelling. It sits between a sandwich shop and a casual restaurant, aimed at people who want something quick that feels less processed than conventional fast food.

The listed signature dishes are the chicken aioli wrap and the Love burger, a plant-based burger that has been a long-running menu item. Other offerings include sweet potato fries, hot boxes with rice and vegetables, salads, soups, smoothies, juices and coffee. Breakfast is a major part of the offer, with porridge, wraps and pastries. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten-aware choices are widely labelled, and nutritional information is printed on the menu.

The branches are bright, modern and efficient, with counters, order screens and a limited amount of seating, often with communal tables or stools by the window. The mood is quick and practical, with the busiest service at lunchtime. There is no dress code and noise is moderate. Drinks include fresh juices, smoothies, soft drinks and coffee, and a small number of branches may serve beer or wine, though this should be confirmed locally.

Reservations are not needed, as the model is order-at-counter or takeaway. Listed hours are daily from 07:00 to 22:00, but hours differ by site, and station and airport branches may open earlier or close sooner. Prices are low to moderate, with a main dish costing roughly the price of a typical London lunch in pounds sterling. Because the address is listed as multiple UK locations, visitors should check the specific branch for hours and menu variations before visiting.
