Kitchens run smoother on Lemon.

About us

We're Armin and Gauthier. We met studying in Edinburgh and we had both worked in restaurants. Lemon is the tool we wanted in our own kitchens, fast enough to use during service and complete when the inspector asks.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Lemon is a mobile app that replaces your food safety diary. It digitises daily HACCP checks like fridge temperatures, cooking logs, and delivery records, and exports them as a PDF in one tap.

Small restaurants, cafés, food trucks, bakeries, and multi-site independents who want to stay compliant without paperwork.

No, Lemon is designed to be learned in minutes. Staff can log checks straight from their phone with no setup.

Yes. FSA guidance lets you keep food safety records electronically, as long as they are accurate and you can produce them when an inspector asks. Lemon exports everything as a PDF, so you always have something to hand over.

You'll be prompted to add payment details (£19/month per site). You can cancel anytime, and your records stay yours to export.
