Thistle & Leek is a cozy destination, inspired by London’s modern gastropubs. Located in the heart of Newton Centre, it is a casual neighborhood refuge offering the ideal venue for a midweek celebration, date night or a drink and a snack on the way home from work. The menu is composed of small plates with a theme of local seasonality and is inspired by chef-owners Kate & Trevor Smith’s travels through Europe. The wine list is old world. The cocktails are earnest and straightforward. The hospitality is warm and casual.
