Consistency is why I LOVE BB Lemon! My lunch was perfect, patty melt was exactly how I wanted it and the patio dining was wonderful. See you very soon.

Needs to be part of our brunch rotation! BB Lemon executes classic dishes so well - everything is delicious and approachable. My mom raves about the Ruben, she always wants to try different things but can never convince herself to order anything else. Staff and setting are excellent. Staff is always so friendly and accommodating. The space is so fun with a wide variety of seating choices - tables for date nights overlooking Washington Ave, big group tables in back, bar seating for happy hour, patio and true outdoors. So versatile and so fun. One of our favorite places to go out and bring the kids along with us. So glad this is part of our community

Great parking upon arrival. Well received when going inside. Showed us a place to put down our umbrella due to rainy day. Made sure our orders were accurate. Delicious food. Fun location in close proximity to downtown.

We had a wonderfully festive brunch at BB Lemon! 🍋 It was a beautiful sunny Sunday, and we were seated outside on the patio. Food was also fantastic. Don’t miss the Crab 🦀 Beignets and Pigs in a Blanket for starters. The Club Sandwich and Banana 🍌 Pudding French Toast were also standouts for our group.

Overall, ok. Had very good service. The clam chowder was excellent. The fish and chips, however, were disappointing, mediocre at best. Too much batter and a little greasy. Fries were average, a little soggy for me. The banana pudding was very good, but very sweet. Think it was the marshmallow in it. Not too happy about getting 0 points for the visit, but I knew in advance they don’t award points. Spent over 100, but whatever. Should have gone to the butchers across the street. And had to valet park!

Wasn’t expecting a menu change and dishes seeking to order are not on menu. Spoke with Manager. Discussion with corporate needed.
