Such a cute spot for a glass of wine at happy hour! Love the ambiance, and their market side has fantastic to-go items. I'd absolutely recommend the chicken salad croissant, or the soups!

Leek and thistle has THE BEST frozen meals and having them is great for a tasty night at home. But the biggest hack, and reason we regularly stock up even though we moved out of town, is that we take them with us when we were doing weekend trips and the kitchen situation is unknown or suboptimal. It's so much healthier and cheaper than takeout and it avoids the annoyance of having to take everything with you only to find that your Airbnb doesn't have a cutting board or decent knife. The pork pazole is our most favorite but everything is always fantastic!

What a FIND! Leak & Thistle has some amazing frozen meals including my favorite, the chicken pot pie. Today I had an opportunity sit at the bar with a four glass sampler while enjoying a conversation about wine with Master Sommelier, Robert Jones.

The best food in Richmond!!

Coronation chicken salad, British pies, interesting seasonal stews, soups, vegetarian friendly and a top notch wine bar with monthly wine dinners. This place is a gem on Main St.

Always an amazing time. Thank you, Robert for always making my friends and I welcome. Thoroughly enjoy grabbing a take home dish for the next day or the veggie wrap for lunch!

I got a chance to visit today to help out family with meals during a surgery. They don’t have many restrictions (so I thought) - no red meat or tomatoes. I was going to get a meal for today and a meal to freeze. I looked at the salads and sandwich options and the first item I see is a quinoa salad that expired 2/23. All of salads and sandwiches but one had an expiration of 3/23. They looked alright but I was hoping for something more fresh and plentiful looking. I checked out the frozen selection hoping for anything but I didn’t see options that didn’t have tomato, red meat or freezer burn. I looked the freezers over a few times but couldn’t find anything that fit that criteria. I guess if the dates in the coolers aren’t being checked on, I shouldn’t expect staff to come over and check on me clearly rifling through every item in their freezers. I was going to ask someone for assistance but everyone looked too busy to be bothered swiftly walking around or leaving for the day, so I called it. 3 stars for looking inviting and having some sweets I would’ve added to my purchase. Thanks.
Butternut, sage and apple soup, Delicious! All the Burittos but particularly the Chorizo and the Veggie. Chicken Pot Oie is next level. Love this fresh, small batch from scratch healthy foods. Wonderful food. The chicken salad is the best I've ever had. Lovely proprietors too.

Your Guinness stew was delicious. Better than my own!

After trying different ways to have convenient yet healthy and wholesome dinners, including Home Chef and Clean Eatz, I am really impressed by Leek & Thistle's meal selections, which include meat and meatless dishes, soups, sides, and even burritos and dessert entrees. The chorizo, egg, and black bean breakfast burrito for example was absolutely delicious and filling!All meals are frozen so I can put them in my freezer and defrost them as needed, so no more leftovers to throw away. Also, unlike the single portions of the other companies, the portions come in 16oz or 32oz containers, so I can get two to four meals from one container. That's a much better value for the money I'm spending. There is also a small refrigerated section of fresh pre-packaged sandwiches and wraps, and a large selection of wines and a bar. I highly recommend Leek & Thistle!

Our kitchen is being renovated, and this is so convenient being right around the corner. The food is delicious, and a much healthier option then eating out. Well done - my wife and I will be back.
