1. 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.

Revisiting, the St Helena is as good as ever. We all voted the amuse bouches, our choice of starters and our main courses outstandingly delicious and beautifully presented. The goats cheese starter comprised layers of whipped goats cheese, basil, roasted peppers, filo pastry and avocado with beetroot puree and carrot crisps; the haggis and corned beef hash starter came with potato galette, fried duck egg, black pudding crumb, English mustard and tomato chutney. Wonderful combinations, full of different flavours and textures. Our main courses of fillet steak, lobster & fish, and pasta were equally exceptional. We all rated them as distinctly superior to those served at another renowned (but more pretentious) restaurant. The St Helena is an elegant house, and the waitresses were all friendly, helpful and smiling. Our one regret was that the noise level from tables around us made conversation difficult.
