Fast food chain LEON is introducing a £3.99 meal deal to stores next week.
The restaurant, which prides itself in healthy food and a vast menu, will be adding two rice pots to its All Day menu.
Customers can choose between two flavours, a BBQ Chicken or Black Bean Chilli rice pot, and pair it with a drink for £3.99.
The drinks included in the deal are below, alongside usual prices:
- Karma Drinks, regular-size draft soda or can – both £1.79 each
- Dash Water – £1.79
- Trip CBD Infusions – £1.99
- LEON bottled still or sparkling water – £1.79
On its own, the BBQ Chicken pot would set you back £3.49 while the Black Bean Chilli costs £2.99.
So if you bought the BBQ Chicken pot alongside a bottle of Trip CBD Infusion, you’d save a maximum £1.49.
Glenn Edwards, managing director of LEON Restaurants, said:
“LEON is committed to its founding mission that our food should taste good, do you good and be kind to the planet.

“We always aim to serve naturally fast food made with the best quality ingredients for the most reasonable price, and the launch of the rice pots deal is another way to ensure this.
“We will continue to check in with our valued guests and respond to their feedback as it will only help us to bring accessible, well-loved dishes and innovations to our menu.”
If you opt for a BBQ Chicken rice pot, you’ll get Italian brown rice topped with chargrilled chicken thigh, garlic aioli, barbeque sauce, mint and parsley.
The Black Bean Chilli is the vegan option, taken from a traditional Brazilian feijoada.
It also includes Italian brown rice, this time flavoured with black beans, carrots and onions spiced with sweet and smoked paprika and oregano.
The change will be implemented across LEON’s 80 stores in the UK and the Netherlands.

Elsewhere, Pret A Manger has launched a range of budget sandwiches in a bid to tackle rising costs.
The range includes eight new Made Simple options which went on sale last month, starting at £2.54 for an egg mayo.
There is also a BLT, tuna and cucumber, mature cheddar and pickle, chicken salad, ham salad, and hummus and veg — all for £2.99.
The prices are a big drop from Pret’s upmarket products — with a posh cheddar and pickle baguette costing £5.45 and even an egg mayo sandwich usually selling for £3.40.
However, it’s still no cheaper than other lunch deals.
Greggs, for instance, sells a £2.75 tuna crunch baguette. It also offers a range of meal deals, the cheapest of which being a breakfast deal for £2.60.
The breakfast deal means you can sink your teeth into a filled roll with any hot drink. Or a bottle of orange juice, if you’d rather.
Elsewhere, Tesco offers a £3.90 deal, including a sandwich, drink and snack. It’s even cheaper for Clubcard members at £3.40.
Boots also offers a £3.59 meal deal in UK stores outside of London, although inside the capital it’s £4.19.
But that’s a whopping £4.70 saving, of course if you buy a chicken triple sandwich for £3.35, a trek power millionaire shortbread for £2.25 and a vita coco natural coconut water 500ml for £2.69.
