Lemon Tree

The Lemon Tree is a Chinese takeaway on Great Western Road at the Cowcaddens end of the road, before the street opens up into the west end proper. The kitchen is fully halal, catering to the significant Muslim population in the surrounding postcodes, and the menu covers Cantonese and Chinese-style dishes with gluten-free, dairy-free and nut-free options flagged — an unusually thorough set of allergen accommodations for a takeaway of this type. Online ordering with delivery available across the surrounding postcodes. The kitchen opens in the late afternoon daily and runs into the late evening, making it the kind of dependable neighbourhood option that local families return to regularly.
