Customer Review Summary
Friendly staff are the most frequent draw. Reviewers call them kind, say they remember faces and regular orders, and describe a manager who sorted out an ordering mistake without any problem. Coffee and other drinks get praise, as does breakfast, which one regular calls healthy, fast and customisable. Others mention fresh, tasty food, allergens clearly displayed on the ordering machine, and good wifi and phone charging. Single tables look out at the building used as Gringotts bank in the first Harry Potter film. Food draws the sharpest complaints. One reviewer found the aioli chicken lukewarm and low on flavour, counted only a handful of pomegranate seeds, and noted the gluten-free buns are no longer available. Another described dry, chewy rice and reports a food handler working without gloves. One more calls the food just ok for balcony food. Dirty tables come up in two reviews, including a reviewer who had to ask for a table to be cleaned and found used tissues on the floor, though another reviewer calls the place clean.

“I love Leon for breakfast. It's healthy, delicious, fast and can be customised. What makes this particular branch stand out is the manager Andrea. She was fantastic when I made a stupid ordering mistake and sorted my issue out without any problem. It was a great customer experience and creates deep customer loyalty. Leon can be proud. Thank you.”
