About Lemon & Duke
Our head chef Anthony Duffy has focused on fresh and local produce and created a menu that borrows heavily from both European and Asian food styles.
Lemon & Duke serves small and large plates for lunch, dinner and brunch at the weekend.
Lunch consists of high quality gourmet sandwiches with bakery fresh breads alongside healthy salads, select meats and the freshest fish.
Dinner will have the same small or large plate options – a starter or something light – of mains prepared with the best ingredients Ireland has to offer.
Brunch items will be integrated into our evening menu at the weekend to accommodate everyone – whether it be a classic eggs benedict or a great steak.
Then, to finish, our decadent desserts are all made in house and served as little pots of joy. Sigh.
