The Apothecary Kitchen - Dundee

Hear great things about this place was looking forward to trying it. Came on Friday afternoon at 1. In this day and age no excuse for not updating your hours online or at least having a note on the door if you're going to close early or something came up... Really disappointed

Relaxing atmosphere and delicious food. The workers were very pleasant and welcoming.

We look forward to our Thursday/Friday lunch at The Apothecary Kitchen every week! The menus are not only SO creative, but every single item tastes delicious too. The food is so fresh and presented beautifully. Honestly can't rave enough about how tasty everything is! So happy we found this spot!!

Took a charcuterie class here with a few friends, and it was so fun! She provided everything you need to make your own board and explained all the tips and tricks of how to elevate your board.I got some Blue Collar hot sauce that was delicious! I'm excited to come back for lunch sometime!

This is an interesting spot in downtown Dundee. Located on the fringe of the business district in what appears to have been a residential property built several decades ago, it is done very nicely inside with a very inviting ambiance. It has an attractive appeal.I am giving this place the benefit of the doubt with four stars because it is a bit of a mixed review. Our experience was mostly positive, however. As mentioned, the decor is quite lovely. It exudes the country style ambiance and I like the way their front counter is set up to present a country store look. But it seems to be a country store and deli in one. I think they could do a good job of this except they really don't quite have the space to pull it off as well as they could. It's a bit cramped and the seating space is very, very limited with perhaps enough room for six or eight patrons. We were fortunate no one else was there when we visited such that we were able to sit at one of the tables to have our lunch. To be fair, they may be targeting take-away patrons more than eat-in customers. They may also have tables set up outside during warmer weather months.Another aspect of the mixed reviews was the food. First, I have to say that I loved the creative names they presented for their daily fare in honor of Christmas, using the Home Alone movie as a basis. For example, I had the Look-What-You-Did-You-Little-Jerk Chicken Sandwich. The menu was rather limited in number of offerings, but there were enough. The soups were quite tempting with Stuffed Pepper and Baked Potato available. Both were excellent. My wife made a lunch just from the Stuffed Pepper soup. The J Chicken, however, did not have much j to it. It might have been better named Exemplar or Paragon Chicken, because it was not at all Jerky. In fact, it was rather plain and dry. I saved half and used a mayo/mustard combo as a dip when I ate my leftover...and it was much better. I will note, however, that the portion was very good. It was more than I needed to eat in one sitting.The prices also took me a little aback. For two cups of soup, one wrap with chips, a coffee, a latte, a cookie and a gift container of five macarons, our total bill was $43.00. Take away the macarons, which were not part of lunch, and it was still $27. But given that my wife's lunch was a cup of soup, a latte and half a cookie, $13.50 per person is a little steep. Maybe it's just that everything is getting over-the-top expensive everywhere, but this just struck me as a bit much.Overall, it was a very pleasant little shop with good presentation, good coffee, tasty soup and nice sweets. The wrap needed a little something extra (which I added later) but otherwise, it was pretty good. I'd like to give it another try sometime.Parking: Street parking is not bad to find.
