OMG. loved the food. Haven’t had a fried chicken sandwich ever. The minute we walked in the staff was super nice and answered all our questions. Everything is gluten free there except the pitas. The food was amazing and I will be returning. Absolutely amazing food and service

Limited menu, but will expand in the future because it’s a new restaurant. Everything is clearly marked. Staff is very knowledgeable. Everything is baked, so no issue of contaminated fryer. There’s a location in DC I frequent, so I was thrilled to see one closer to home. Really delicious and I recommend the spicy chicken nuggets!

GF chicken nuggets! Very high quality “fast” food. All sandwiches can be on GF bun. Chicken is baked in a nut and sunflower seed encrusted coating, delicious.

Good food and choice. Everything labelled on the ‘menu’. I double checked an item and the manager came to discuss and went through the allergen list too. Felt safe and no adverse reactions.

NOT SUITABLE FOR COELIACS. "It's not going to happen, but we cannot guarantee 100% no cross contamination". They were very kind and informative, but it is not safe. Just had a latte :_)

Overall acceptable food, I had chicken nuggets and waffle fries. The fries were a little soggy but well seasoned. The chicken was okay, but I remember from a past life when I could eat gluten that the nuggets from McDonald's were more peppery and had more flavour. Overall taste acceptable, especially if you really crave fast food, usually the choice is scarce. Service super fast. They have a good range of rice boxes that I haven't tried this time, but they are all gluten free. They offer takeout and dine in, they also deliver. The toilet at this establishment specifically was a nightmare, with 1 accessible unisex toilet for all customers, highly wouldn't recommend, but I used it because I knew there would be an infinite line for the ladies restroom inside the train station.

Leon had been advertising for their new gluten free nuggets and I wanted to try them. The employee behind the cashier could not guarantee them being free from cross contamination but would oversee my order. It took some time to get my food, but honestly that felt promising in which the staff actually took my allergies seriously. The nuggets were fine nothing special. Would probably not buy again, but it was a fun experience:)
