Sunday set lunch
£42.00 per person
Multiple dates available
On Sundays we offer a family style set lunch in the restaurant priced at £42 per person. The menu changes weekly but will typically centre around a large porchetta roasted slowly over the wood fire surrounded by seasonal antipasti, pastas & contorni with our tiramisu to finish. We are more than happy to accommodate vegetarians and other dietary requirements, if you could select from the meat or vegetarian menu add ons when booking that would be greatly appreciated. Reservations on Sundays are for our Set Lunch Only while the more casual breakfast and lunch in the cafe is a walk ins only affair, so please feel free to just pop by if you wish to dine in the cafe. Thanks!

For me, this is perfection. I am so glad to have found Leo's after a few of my favourite restaurants closed in the past years. It is a very humble venue with kind of super powers, A top top team. I ate here twice, six months apart and dream about the next time. Thank you to the entire team!

Although expensive, the food was incredible. Ambience amazing. It's been a long time since I've enjoyed a meal that much, and I wouldn't usually go back to the same restaurant twice but this is an exception - especially as the front and back of the restaurant have such different vibes it would be like trying a new restaurant.

You can't get wrong with Leo's! From the beautiful burning wood cosy smell to the welcoming front room with the bar and warm back room, where you can see the chimney and the chefs in actions, to the friendly team and outstanding food that will take you to a journey through a well balanced and carefully prepared flavours, with a crossover of top quality ingredients that we'll make you enjoy every single dish! The wine list is carefully sourced and it matches perfectly the chef's menu. Repeat and repeat!

Everything was fantastic, and we definitely plan to return! However, since we booked a later time, most of the main dishes were unavailable, except for one. While this isn't a fault of the restaurant, I recommend reserving an earlier slot if you're looking for something specific. That said, this place is wonderful—the food is delicious, the service was attentive, and the ambiance was excellent!
