If you are looking for a casual yet stylish place to eat in Plymouth, your first port of call might be the city centre, but don't neglect the suburbs. Take Elburton village for example, just off of the A379 to Kingsbridge Road. 3rd left at The Elburton roundabout. Tucked away here is THE LEMON TREE CAFE 'BISTRO just past the co-op then next right after the zebra crossing, 50yds to free car park on the left.

Came across this place on the off chance. It's so lovely. We had a couple of sandwiches which were excellent. So fresh and tasty. I had the Biscoff milkshake which was by far the best I've had in a very long time. Place was so clean and staff so lovely, smiley and polite. It was an absolute gem of a place. Prices were good too.

Small & intimate and friendly cafe/restaurant. I've always enjoyed the a la carte menu and meze evenings. Good value. Particularly the meze which is different, imaginative and much tastier than other eateries I've been to. No freezer catering pack food here thanks. Never visited during the day time so I can't comment on lunches etc. 3 course dinner is £30 pp and booking is essential. A big bonus is the free public car park adjacent to the restaurant.

Odd to see this place in a national guide. Small 5 or 6 table caff catering it seems mostly for pensioners with fixed priced lunches, a few specials and more complex evening options. Didn't warm to the ambience but the food was good value and OK. Not helped by this fringe suburb being a soulless sort of place. Can't really recommend. Maybe if you were very local. Not worth travelling to.
