AppleTree Cafe &amp; Bakery

I've always been an "it's the little things" kind of person, but today what was a seemingly small…read morething felt really big in my heart. I decided to eat a good breakfast while getting some major admin work done and went to Chicken Run. I ordered the Hiker's Benedict since I was specifically craving Eggs Benedict. But being neurosparkly has its challenges that show up in the weirdest ways. While I have a very open palate and can be a total foodie, I can get very weirded out by textures. So when my meal came with all of the toppings chopped up into small cubes, I simply couldn't enjoy it. The waitress asked about it, and I told her it's my own weirdness and not to worry about it. They still took the meal off even though I fully planned to pay. I don't share this so that people will abuse their kindness, but so that people will know that this is a business with heart. At a time when I'm feeling like especially sensitive about being too much, this little thing meant so much to me. I will absolutely return here. Thank you, Chicken Run - Lubbock. Your compassion matters.

I loved the Parisian Benedict! I would eat it again. The coffee was fresh and delicious. The…read moreservice was nice and friendly. My non-breakfast loving husband wasn't totally impressed with his burrito. He thought it had to many eggs and not enough chicken friend steak. But I would highly recommend.

The Strawberry Banana Waffle was AMAZING!!!

On top of that, they ran out of steak, so part of the order couldn't even be made. Then, when the food finally came out, I ordered mashed potatoes and they gave me French fries instead. At this point, it feels like nobody is paying attention to the orders. I understand restaurants get busy, but this was beyond frustrating. Extremely slow service, missing items, wrong sides, and terrible communication. One star is honestly generous. NO TAP TO PAY

Everyone at the office got apple tree for breakfast this morning like they do every Saturday. This was my first time and I'm a picky eater so when I got the biscuits and gravy and asked to have sausage crumbled on top the friendly and pleasant staff was nice and accommodating. It was fresh hot and absolutely delicious. The gravy had a amazing flavor. Would recommend this place to any and everyone, now I see why everyone loves getting food there from my office and why we constantly have their cookies around. And on a side note the fresh baked deserts and cookies looked amazing I will defiantly be going back for more very soon!! read more

My family was excited tr try Apple Tree Cafe after reading the reviews. However we walked in with a small 9lb SERVICE DOG who works for my DISABLED VETERAN husband & were told we COULD NOT bring him in. We have service ID, tags & leash for this animal. The place only had 2 other customers in there.The dog is & was very well behaved This is against the law for them to refuse entry. We will NEVER do business with this place nor any other that refuses USA VETERANS. Thank You read more

Not only is the food amazing but the staff is so friendly! It's a family owned business by some of the sweetest people! They are a Greek family who put a great twist on classic food! They have breakfast all day, sandwiches, burgers, chicken fried steak and all sorts of other things including Greek and non Greek deserts!

My favorite place in town now I think. The dr. Pepper cookies are amazing. Great breakfast and great lunch. Had the patty melt with a fried egg on it and it was delicious.

The sandwiches were bland, but they have a great serving of meat and each plate includes a dressed salad and chips with dip. The bread was really good. The location could be better, since the restaurant is at the back of KKs. The perimeter of the restaurant does not conceal very much of your view of the booths. I wish there were windows and a better view, but the atmosphere was still fine. The bill was more expensive than I expected, but the food was pretty good and I had a positive experience. I'll come again to order the peach tea and pie, but I will probably try a different entree.
