Review of Leon

I've seen the future 
I've been aware of Leons for quite a while, but there's never seemed to be one nearby when I'm looking for quick healthy lunch, however last Sunday on a break from the Designer's Bloc show finally had the chance to visit with friends to their Spittlefield Market branch.
Very impressive place, which gets a lot of things right. The menu is packed with healthy tasty meals, wraps, salads and smoothies that you rarely get in the UK but find all over the US. Better still the menu isn't limited to one type of cuisine, so you can get everything from a middle-eastern wrap or Indian Curry to an English breakfast.
The décor too takes the best of retro, nostaligic Britain/Americana/Continental style and gives it clean, modern update with big canteen style tables mixes with more intimate booths. Lastly and best of all, everything is super-affordable (most meals under a fiver). If they continue to open as many places as they have over the last year or so, 'd love to see Leon become a real Pret competitor.
