I was really looking forward to trying this place. Beer was okay but service was just not nice. Disappointed overall.

Not a local but a local at the same time, come up to speculator to spend time with friends and family either in the summer or coming winter, The Lemon Tree has come to be known as a staple here in this little town we love, I highly recommend and will always recommend you go there for some late night music or quality time in front of a fire with friends and family, contrary to previous visit I was greeted by a very welcoming smile and friendly attitude. Went so far as to even mentioning upcoming events here, which encouraged my return Saturday

Nice place to stop for a snack and a brew. Plenty of space to spread out and enjoy a fire, games or friends. There's wine and Uncle Charlie's in the fridge for those that aren't into craft beer and even bottled water.... I mean Coors Light. Having an option to run a tab would have been helpful. Each order was independently charged without ever asking to hold our cards. Ended up with 5 transactions on my account alone by the time we left. Unfortunately, they allow kids and we had to watch as Mom changed her infants diaper on the floor in the main sitting room next to the bar. Very pleasant. Aside from that, we would swing back by. Nice staff and decent beer selection.

Bartender was uninviting when we walked in. Rude when we ordered or asked a question. Seemed like she was annoyed because we were there. And continued to treat all customers that way. Beautiful venue. Beer/Hard cider was good. Food was okay microwave bar food. So much potential!!!

Terrible service. Both employees behind the bar were rude and unwelcoming. Not a friendly experience at all. Will not be returning.

Food was great and they had an awesome beer selection, but the service was a nightmare. The two employees behind the bar greated us with stone cold blank faces, and didn't say anything. As we checked out the menu we were gawked at by the two employees, until one of them, sounding rather annoyed, asked if we wanted to order. I didn't feel welcome at all. No suprise the place was empty.

As soon as we entered the brewery, the bartender was extremely unfriendly. She seemed simply inconvenienced by our presence, despite our attempts at pleasantries. Food was not good. A member of our party disclosed having a nut allergy, and asked for the “Caprese” sandwich without pesto, but she was flat out denied due to the inconvenience of the request (apparently). Will NOT return!

Only eating establishment open in town. First time visiting this place. It was very nice inside. Very rustic. Clean and well done. Parking was in the back and you have to walk around building to enter in the front. They do have handicapped parking in front. You order at a counter then sit while you wait for your food. Multiple options for seating. Counters with stools, traditional style tables and big comfy chairs by a fireplace. When your food is done you go up to counter to get it. The menu is not huge but it has a fair variety. It was hot and tasty. Prices were reasonable. Al in all it was a nice experience.

Lovely, friendly little place.
Lots of wood in the architecture and there's a musician setting up. Wish I had time to stay longer.
Guess I'll have to come back....
NB: The Sasquatch IPA is very tasty.

We enjoyed Lemon Tree they let us bring dogs in the garage area and order food and their beers on tap were good. It's a nice spot across from the park in Speculator which has lovely walking trails.
A sad excuse for a “brewery” We paid $18 for two beers for it to be handed to us ino a plastic cup (instead of a glass) from the most miserable worker Save your money and get beer from the store and enjoy the beautiful scenery Speculator has to offer

Woman working was very rude. Beer was ok, not worth the amount of money they charge for it

Really more of a tap room than a brewery. They had one beer they brewed on tap but the rest were an eclectic selection of NY Beers and ciders. The pretzels we order we excellent. A bit pricey but there's not a lot around this area so it makes sense.
Maybe we hit this place on a off day but the general vibe was disinterested and uninviting.

Not sure why this place is called a brewery when there is only 1 beer on the tap list made by them.. regardless, staff were kurt and rude while ordering, the QR code outside and menu didn't match what was listed inside on their board, and the food was not worth the $14. Caprese sandwich was lacking all of the ingredients, and when there was a request to fix the problem, they offered a refund for half the sandwich since my mom begrudgingly ate one half and no apology for the sad excuse for a sandwich. Only have two stars because the building set up is great , too bad nothing else is.

Terrible. Unfriendly service. Had the Caprese Panini, $14 for probably the worst sandwich ever. They did re-imburse me for half. Go to Logan's Bar if you want good food with great portions.
