Food should taste good and do you good. And the Mediterranean diet, our inspiration, does exactly that. It’s full of plants, fresh herbs, spices, good fats from olive oil, seeds and nuts and well-sourced meat. Michael Pollan said it best in his book “In Defence of Food:” “Eat food, not too much, and mostly plants”.

When it comes to our little ones, we take their nutrition seriously. Our children's menu is thoughtfully designed, following guidelines for balanced and nutritious options. We've made sure to minimize sugar, salt, and saturated fat, so you can feel confident about the choices you make for your kids.

You'll find nutritional figures provided on our menu pages, serving as helpful guidelines. We strive to keep this information accurate and up to date, though occasional variations may occur due to the provenance and seasonality of ingredients. But rest assured, we're committed to serving you the best.

We work closely with nutritionists to make sure that our menu offers options for everyone, whatever you requirements. We also use Children’s Food Trust guidelines to help create a balanced and nutritious children’s menu, keeping sugar, salt and saturated fat to a minimum.

All our nutritional figures on the menu pages are provided as guidelines. They are all correct to the best of our knowledge but may vary occasionally with ingredient provenance and seasonality.

We use a range of nutritional symbols to help you quickly identify the dishes we have on offer.

At our core, we're on a mission to make a positive impact on our planet, and we've set our sights on three exciting goals to make it happen:

Let's Go Green: We're all about boosting the plant power on our menu! We're constantly exploring ways to bring in more delightful and nutritious plant-based options to satisfy your taste buds while reducing our environmental footprint.

Embracing Renewable Energy: We're stepping into the future with a commitment to renewable energy sources. By harnessing the power of the sun, wind, and other sustainable sources, we're making big strides toward a greener, cleaner tomorrow.

Kicking Plastics to the Curb: Plastic pollution is a global challenge, and we're not taking it lightly. We're actively working to cut down our use of plastics, seeking eco-friendly alternatives that keep your experience top-notch.

But wait, there's more! We're just getting started on our sustainability journey. Our next exciting aim is to become carbon neutral, striving to balance our carbon emissions with eco-friendly initiatives.

Together, we can create a brighter and greener future. Join us on this eco-adventure, where every delicious bite brings us closer to a sustainable and thriving planet! Your support means the world to us! 🌍✨

A significant amount of our menu is vegan or vegetarian and the focus is on those dishes being as tasty as they can be.

And with meat, the emphasis is on serving less but better quality, and using plants to fill the gap. 

Leon is committed to meeting the welfare standards set by the European Chicken Commitment for 100% of our chicken by 2026 throughout our European Supply Chain.
We support the work that the Humane League have done in campaigning towards the European Chicken Commitment and encourage them to go even further and work with farmers to help them supply this product in a sustainable way that is also affordable to customers.
We always endeavour to work with and support the most sustainable suppliers and partners and we will continue to work with the Humane League to find a clear and transparent solution to the CO2 and sustainability impact the new method of chicken farming brings, as it becomes commercially available.

We have made great progress with our sourcing in recent years. We meet a number of the Better Chicken Commitment promises: our chickens are never caged or in multi-tier systems and always have high-quality air on their farms. They have perch-able space, hay bales and other peck-able things to keep them stimulated.

We visit our chicken farms regularly and we know our chickens have room, daylight, and are well looked after. Our sourcing has a low carbon footprint, though we do know the more sustainable option is to increase the number of plant-based dishes on our menu so we’re working on that.

We’re constantly trying to reduce the amount of plastic we use. Earlier this year we replaced plastic cutlery and straws with biodegradable and paper alternatives.

In the restaurants where we’re responsible for our waste, we’re always zero waste-to-landfill, meaning our waste is given a new lease of life.

Food waste is unnecessary and expensive. All of our restaurants must stick to the target of having nothing leftover at the end of the day. We make our food fresh to order and judge our forecasts based on the weather, the day of the week (we know you prefer salads on Mondays and Tuesdays, and burgers and wraps at the weekend), and the sales we had on the same day last year. This means there’s almost nothing left over at the end of each day. But whatever is left is sent to anaerobic digestion.

Alternatively, if you know of a charity near to any of our restaurants who might want to pick up any leftover food, please let us know.
