| My first visit to this Pub. It was quiet on a Week day after noon, my two Pints of Deuchars IPA and Singapore Noodles were delicious. I will return. AuldJimmy - 27 Mar 2012 18:45 |
| Four ales on when we visited yesterday - Old Speckled Hen, Doombar, Deuchars and Harveys. Stuck to the Doombar and Harveys, which were perfectly drinkable, especially the latter, and around £3.85 a pint. When we arrived at 3pm it was quiet compared to some of the other rammed boozers in and around Covent Garden on St Patrick's Day. Helps that it is tucked around a corner, so easy to miss. Gradually filled up, though, and within a couple of hours it was rammed. Still not a hassle to get service at the bar, as the bar staff were very efficient - and friendly, to echo a previous comment. Bit of a schlep to get to the toilets, though. Randomly a gents' downstairs and upstairs, and the ladies' only upstairs. It's a one-room pub with a few seats upstairs. TV above the door showing live sport, although not loud enough to be oppressive. Were serving Thai food when we arrived, as well as some other pub grub, which looked very decent. Did say on the menu they were serving until 9.30pm but stopped early so we went to the Thai restaurant round the corner which was particularly nice. Anyway, decent boozer. Harp has a better selection of beer, but this place tends to be a bit quieter and you can generally get a seat or at least some elbow room. duchyjim - 18 Mar 2012 13:51 |
| An absolute gem of a pub. It has a cheeky sort-of smallness to it that feels immediately charming. Welcoming staff behind the bar; very warm and friendly. There's also a tiny little room upstairs. When I visited they had Harveys, Deuchars IPA, Doom Bar on tap. The IPA was very drinkable and the Harveys (perhaps an acquired taste to some) sharp and hoppy. There's a Thai food menu, but a plate of chips for £2 was went down a treat. What's quite interesting about The Lemon Tree is that the punters seem really relaxed and chilled out. I know that sounds like a weird thing to say, but I think it's because everyone is thinking the same thing: "What a nice little pub I've found". 9 Goldings - 11 Nov 2011 14:06 |
| Visited here on Friday night. Was pretty busy but i got served quickly by a friendly barman. Nice to find a pub like this in the area that is not full of gimmicks or takes an age to get a drink. Very friendly atmosphere on a summers evening with local office workers drinking outside. Will definatley go back soon!! missbow - 22 Aug 2011 22:47 |
| Just tried this place a week ago! The Harp was jammed so off around the corner to the Lemon. New looks from the last visit two years ago. Doombar was good and the place is a nice alternative. THX LT! richardo - 20 Jul 2011 20:09 |
