Stayed for 2 nights (writing this on my last night, sat still hungry in my room!)First night meal was good actually, though service was a bit haphazard given I was one of only about 4 people in the place. Tonight different story, place was packed (turns out it’s quiz night), so even worse service, followed by the absolute worst steak I’ve ever been served (hint: either buy better quality or invest in steak knives because they’re inedible and impossible to cut otherwise), joined with the least peppercorny peppercorn sauce (at least if the sauce was good it would have masked the crap steak a bit). It was also just this side of Luke warm. Given the waitress was also the barmaid I can appreciate she was struggling. Impossible to complain as I never saw her back at the table so after 30 mins just left the whole lot congealing on the plate while I waited patiently at the bar for another 20 mins being ignored just to pay for the crappy food I didn’t eat. As you can tell, I’m grumpy when I’m hungry. Would be good if they just explained that a quiz was due, especially when the quiz master said that the quiz would have to be delayed as ‘apparently people are still eating’ like we were bloody pariahs or something. Unimpressed.Thank you for taking the time to share your views with us.I am sorry you did not enjoy your dining experience with us. We were unusually very busy for our quiz night and therefor our bar team were extremely busy.We have had lots of glowing comments about our food including our steaks so I am disappointed that you did not enjoy yours. I am sorry that the waitress was not able to check on your meal once you had been served, due to how busy we were. Had you have mentioned your disappointment to the bar man when paying, we would most certainly have offered to cook you another steak and bring it to your room or taken it off your bill.We value all comments both good and not so good so thank you once again for taking the time to review us.Kind regardsTracy BalenOwner

Leon

Reviewed By MrShaw2015

Leon is a fast food restaurant that is all about quality and freshness. It certainly was!I had two Vegan Love burgers over 2 visits.. no I'm not Vegan by the way! They just looked good in their images.. and sounded very tasty. The fact I've now had 2 tells it's own story!Just over £6 they're not cheap (could be due to being 'trapped' inside Center Parcs Woburn!) but they were well worth it. Tomato, pickle, lettuce and their own vegan burger sauce (obvious dill herbs too) it was gorgeous. A thick slice of smoked vegan Dutch style cheese really added some boost of flavour.The patty itself was a mix of plant proteins and had the consistency of a good meat burger. It wasn't trying to be meat.. nor was it a dry veggie imitation. Definitely something I've never tried before. It was really really good.On another visit my family tried some other dishes.GFC gluten free chicken nuggets! My son loved them. Crunchy outside.. soft inside. No nasty additives. They disappeared very quickly.My daughter had the waffle style fries. Hot, crunchy and nicely spiced. They looked a bit more processed than I expected from Leon's.I had the plantain carribean curry. 8 or so plantain slices, coconut, creamy, gentle spice and heat. Sweet too. Served on large grains of natural rice. A huge amount of rice.. could have done with some more sauce really. But, very tasty. Never had plantain before.. I will again. This dish was recommended by a lady working there on my first visit.. she said most staff ate it.. and I can see why.The last dish we tried was morrocan meatballs. Really filling, large portion. Meatballs rich and flavoursome. The sauce and salad all mixed together well and the whole dish tasted fresh and felt like you were putting quality produce into your body.The fact I had 3 meals there.. all Vegan.. shows how GREAT the food is! (From a meat eater!)Craft beers in a small tin around £4 and other soft drinks available. Fair prices I guess for staying in.The restaurant is airy and unique in it's decor. Service at the counter was always friendly and fast. My only grumble is that Leon is all about clean, quality, environment etc. But we had to eat using plastic knives and forks. In a world rapidly removing single use plastic.. this was surprising.All in all. Well worth a visit.. and try something animal friendly instead of the norm. You won't regret it.
