  <RestaurantDetails>The Hairy Lemon - Stephen Street, City Centre South - 01 671 8949 - angelacooper5034@yahoo.com - Mon-Wed 9am-11.30pm Thurs-Fri 9am-1am, Sat 10:30am-1am Sun 12pm-11pm - The enigmatic Hairy Lemon Pub was christened in memory of one of the city’s great characters who was a dog catcher in the 1950’s. He was reputed to boast a lemon shaped visage and a stubble of gooseberry like hair. 

This most enjoyable drinking establishment is just about as unconventional as it’s namesake. Even the 19th century house in which it resides is a little ‘outside-the-box’; with years of memorabilia a sitting room suspended in mid air, High Nellie’s, wellies and even Granny’s Kitchen, the block buster film ‘The Commitments’, lives on in the Hairy Lemon Pub. Many scenes were filmed using the snug and bar counter from the pub. Unknown to itself, the Hairy Lemon has become one of Dublin’s Trendiest Pubs.

So….

“Here’s to the first drop-the one that destroys you; there’s no harm at all in the last”. 

Great food, service and a friendly atmosphere, but watch out for huge crowds at the weekends. 

Now Serving Breakfast! Monday to Friday: 9am to 12pm.  - New Lunch menu at €7.90 is very hard to beat in Dublin city centre! Had the Club Sandwich... Wow! It was so nice, chicken was tasty and moist, egg was a lovely touch... will definatly be spreading the word in the office... best lunch menu around! </RestaurantDetails>

    <comment>I went into the Hairy Lemon last Monday and ordered the Irish Stew.  In all honesty it was the nicest stew I have ever had.  The lamb was so tender and it was really tasty.  It was served with home made brown bread and a baked potato. I'm still craving it now!  I had a cup of tea which was served with a home made short bread biscuit.  One word delicious.  The service was quick and very friendly.</comment>

    <comment>Came in here to shelter from the snow and wait for the traffic jam to subside - and had a great cottage pie and chips. Very generous portions, and a good selection of choices!</comment>

    <comment>Very good food and customer service. Lovely little pub atmosphere right in the middle of the city centre. Next time I'll order the chicken stir fry, with noodles, it was sooo good!</comment>

    <comment>Went to The Hairy Lemon last week and it had a great Atmosphere about the place, staff were very friendly and helpful.
I ordered Seafood Chowder to start and it was delicious, so creamy and yummy and for my main I got Beef and Guinness stew, the meat was so tender and full of flavor. I really enjoyed my meal and felt I got  value for money! Will defiantly call back again in the near future :)

    <comment>This is my reg haunt when i'm in town.  For me, it ticks all the boxes. The menu is excellent, good atmosphere, food is always delicious. No matter who is with me we leave happy as there is variety and there is always specials on. The reason I am posting this is I rave about the deals here all the time &amp; I always find them fantastic. I was in just before Christmas, I had the Christmas special. I had the chowder followed by Lamb shank. Couldn't fault it, good value €16.95. I hope they keep it on as a special. We shared the homemade baileys cheesecake, there was a row over the last spoonful!</comment>
