Lemon Tree
Tucked away on Ocean Drive in Vero Beach, Lemon Tree is that kind of spot you just stumble upon—and instantly want to tell your friends about. Located at 3125 Ocean Dr, Vero Beach, FL 32963, this cozy eatery blends a classy yet casual vibe that works whether you’re brunching with the kids or catching up with friends on the outdoor patio.
One of the first things you'll notice? The energy. There's a soft buzz of conversation that gives the space life without overwhelming your eggs-and-coffee moment. It’s friendly, relaxed, and just the right amount of lively.
Now, let’s talk food—because that's really where Lemon Tree shines. Their Eggs Benedict is a crowd favorite, and for good reason: perfectly poached eggs, silky hollandaise, and just the right balance of flavors. Craving something sweet? The French Toast here is golden, fluffy, and unapologetically rich. And don’t sleep on the Lemon Blueberry pancakes—they’re bright, citrusy, and have that homemade feel that hits just right.
Seafood lovers, you’re in for a treat too. The Crab Cake Sandwich brings a coastal punch with crispy edges and tender crab inside, all tucked in a soft bun. If you're the type to judge a brunch spot by how they handle a simple dish, try the Poached Eggs—they’re consistently on point.
Whether you’re rolling in with a group or just flying solo for a late breakfast, Lemon Tree nails that laid-back Florida charm. It’s stylish without being stuffy, perfect for a lazy weekend morning or a spontaneous weekday bite. You’ll find locals who’ve been coming here for years—and it won’t take long to see why.

A bustling breakfast spot with excellent service coffee and food. You are welcomed with a mini muffin on the house and excellent fast service. I've tried everything from the lemon blueberry pancakes (still dreaming about them) to the eggs Benedict. Excellent. The line out the door tells it all
Stayed at hotel on the ocean and went to lemon tree every morning for breakfast and it was excellent. Avocado toast, French toast, and yogurt granola all excellent. All the staff are super friendly.
Great mom and pop brunch/breakfast spot on the main strip of vero beach. They don't take reservations, but only waited about 30 minutes for a party of 11. Split the blackened chicken sandwich and breakfast sandwich. Both were delicious and came with a side. We also sampled the lemon pancakes which were very yummy. They also give you yummy muffins to start. Service was great and super friendly. Definitely recommend this spot if your in town!
1st time today. We went after the Vero Bch farmers mkt which was good. Lemon tree is a cute place!! We chose bkfst; husb had the bkfst sandwich on a croissant, he had sliced tomato as his side; he loved it. Also had a fruit bowl which had a nice mix of pineapple, blueberries, strawberries, banana, cantaloupe and grapes. I chose 2 eggs, well done sausage, biscuit and home fries. Eggs cooked nice, home fries were crisp and not greasy, sausages were not the usual they were really good (I'm generally not a bkfst meat liker, I mostly dislike all), biscuit was soft. Fresh ice tea. Ashley was our server and she was terrific! She offered a complimentary house made sorbet sample, we each tried flavors of raspberry and also lemon. Quite good. Definitely will want to come enjoy again.
Always delicious food, always busy and they do their best to keep things on track with service and everyone seems to enjoy coming to eat here! I know I do, it is my favorite breakfast place near the beach.
