Apothecary is an avant-garde cocktail lounge. Utilizing new techniques and tools like centrifuges, liquid nitrogen, sous vide, and pyrolysis we aim to challenge your palate and even your assumptions about cocktails. Expect cocktails that numb your tongue, have an octopus tentacle, or made from pasta sauce. We also carry beers, a curated wine list, and non-alcoholic drinks. Our chef team has been in the Michelin guide twice for food at our sister restaurant Rye and prepares a full dinner dinner menu. Apothecary has two sides, Archive and Alchemy. When booking you'll be prompted to choose a side. If you want to see both sides, please make 2 different reservations to assure we have space. Limited reservations are available, otherwise we are first come, first served beginning at 5 Tuesday-Sunday. We look forward to hosting you. Please note we do apply a 3% fee to all tabs to support our employee benefit fund. More information can be seen on our website. This fee can be removed via reques.
“If you are able to hit this spot up during the world cup DO IT. They will have a totally different menu inspired by the different countries. Every drink we had was complex and well thought out. Venture outside your comfort zone and you won't be disappointed.”
“If you’re looking for a truly unique cocktail experience in Dallas, Apothecary Cocktail Bar is in a league of its own. Every visit feels intentional and elevated, from the creativity behind the cocktails to the consistency of the service. The staff is always incredible, knowledgeable, welcoming, and genuinely passionate about what they do. They take the time to guide you through the menu and introduce you to flavors you might not normally try. Because of them, I’ve expanded well beyond my usual go to drinks and discovered a whole new appreciation for different spirits and cocktail styles. What really sets this place apart is the attention to detail. The cocktails are truly one of a kind, crafted with care and creativity you don’t find just anywhere. On top of that, the food is just as impressive, thoughtfully prepared and consistently top notch. It’s also clear that the owners are hands on and invested in the experience, which shows in every aspect of the bar. This is easily one of Dallas’s best kept secrets when it comes to food and beverage. If you haven’t been yet, you’re missing out.”
“Initially started great but then had some unfortunate experience. However, the management quickly resolved the issue and took care of us. Honestly more than necessary and we really appreciate their effort. This place might be bit hard to find as it is a speakeasy vibe, cocktails are very unique and we’d recommend to anyone looking for fun and unique drinks. If I could give advice, would be great if the servers look around the room every once while. It took about 20 minutes for the server to notice us. Food: (8/10) - not actually caviar, but good. Drinks: (9/10) - if you are into interesting cocktails, this place is great Service: (9/10) - fixed the issue though it’d be great if they saw us earlier. Ambiance: (7/10) - its cozy and nice, but not amazing nor very-speakeasy vibe.”
“Checked this spot out for Restaurant Week in Dallas and the menu did not disappoint. The oysters were probably the best I’ve ever had, no dressing needed as they come with it. Roasted vegetables with goat cheese were a great segue into the main course. The TX wagyu was a bit tougher than anticipated, but the gravy was nice. I didn’t know I needed to try popcorn on cheesecake, but it was surprisingly pleasant!”
“If you are looking for a speakeasy, this is IT!!! I have been seeing this place on google and never could find it. Today, I’m on the hunt for this place. I kept walking by the entrance multiple times until I noticed a wooden door with no sign and no light. I was wondering if it opened, but my curiosity couldn’t stop me. I grabbed the door handle and opened it anyway. Behind the blind curtain revealed a cozy chic space that transformed me back to Aspen chateau vibe. I was greeted with lovely and friendly faces. Their menus were out of the universe (or at least, I could say it was over the moon). I have dined my cuisines, but nothing could describe this eclectic juxtaposition creative culinary and mixology. Recommendations: 🍸Golden Gate No.3 🥃Honey Dew You? For my next visit: I would love to try their kitchen foods… from • charcuteries to • half shell oysters 🦪 raw and dressed, • crab caviar cannoli (doesn’t this sound like a music to my ears 🎶👂), • Jell-O banger (Yesss, it’s Jell-O shot, but from the kitchen), • mussels in white wine butter (how could you go wrong!? 😋), • Cacio E Pepe (egg yolk pasta🍝, grana padano; wild arugula, pink peppercorn, tobacco shallots), • ocean trout in coconut saffron lobster 🦞 bisque, black rice, topped with thai basil and lime leaf chili crisp) • and finish with this crazy dessert called “Kraut Cake” it’s dark chocolate cake, in sauerkraut (yes, you read it right), imagine how carrot 🥕worked like a magic in carrot cake, that goes the same with sauerkraut cabbage 🥬), it’s there to elevate the pallet with its emulsification, come with white chocolate 🍫 cherry 🍒 ganache at the boto, brandied cherriers, coffees and toasted Swiss meeingue.”
