Reviews Leon Manchester Piccadilly

The Piccadilly is situated on the street leading down from Manchester Piccadilly train station to Piccadilly Gardens (that's a lot of Piccadilly's in one sentence! lol). Very central location, making it an ideal place to pop into if you're shopping in Manchester. It is a pub which does food too - like a Wetherspoons type of place, but cheaper :) I don't know what it's like in the evening, but my mum and I popped in last month during a weekday lunchtime and were very impressed! We just wanted a quick lunch, a sandwich and chips or something along those lines. The Piccadilly stood out for us, as it has a bright red sign outside advertising food for £3.99 - and I'm really glad we tried it! It's a large pub with lots of tables and a restaurant-type seating area - we sat at one of the big tables at the back, next to a window and with a lovely comfy sofa to sit on! The food was typical pub food, cheap and cheerful - nothing too exciting, but the sort of thing you want when you're just after a quick lunch. We both had the BBQ chicken - chicken, bacon, cheese and BBQ sauce with chips and salad. As mentioned before, their meals are a fantastic-value £3.99 during the day, which we thought was brilliant considering Wetherspoons do exactly same thing for £7 or £8. The food was well-cooked, and arrived quickly obviously it's nothing spectacular for that price but it was nice, and filled us up! 2 meals, a coffee and a J20 came to £10.20 which I thought was very reasonable. Definitely take some ID with youI got asked for ID as soon as I walked in, and I'm nearly 22 (although admittedly a young-looking 22 - but bearing in mind that this was the middle of the day and we weren't even ordering alcohol, and I still got askedso I can imagine they'd be quite strict of an evening!). The barman was very friendly when he asked though, and in fact all staff were lovely to us throughout our visit. All in all, the perfect place to take a break from shopping in Manc and get some lunch - well worth a try.

Great vegan burger, fries a bit cold. Order online for 30% off your first order. Pink latte was interesting...

In need of a quick but healthy lunch, LEON was an ideal choice. I got the Aioli Chicken Box as a meal (slaw for side, matcha for drink) as well as another side of Truffle & Mushroom Arancini. The creamy Aioli really made the Box for me. My food was prepared and served pretty quickly, too.

Mia is the most fantastic server I have come across. She was very smiley, quick to suggest options, and just a delight to encounter. She changed the entire vibe of the tribe. What a hero and credit to the company.

5 stars for serving healthy and sustainable food. Enjoyed breakfast while waiting for our train. Glad to see clean ingredients in their sourdough muffin sandwiches and porridge. Food nowadays is full of additives and ultra processed. I am glad LEON is moving away from that to create a healthier food environment. Happy that they encourage reusable cup use by giving a 45p discount for customers who order with one. Would be a bonus if they promote recycling in store.

Ordered the peanut satay chicken & rice box w/ double chicken. This the type of food to heal your soul. I’ve never had such a gorgeous peanut satay in my life. Immaculate taste and texture. The food was so good I decided to take the time to sign in and actually make review, which I never do. 10/10, major props to the chefs.

I had an issue with Uber Eats (my food did not arrive for around an hour because the drivers kept cancelling on me) the restaurant were super understanding and helpful, they also kept my food warm the entire time 🫶🏻
