Rae’s Kitchen — Restaurant in Fairhope

My husband and I ventured out for lunch yesterday, looking for a really good sandwich. At the urging of my daughter, who works nearby, we decided to give Rae’s Kitchen a try. And boy are we glad we did!! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was cozy and the staff/owners were amazing.

I had the Mallory Melt and my husband had the 1/2 turkey with avocado with a side of mushroom goat cheese soup-delicious!! We purchased some chicken and dumplings and a lemon bar to go, which made for an equally scrumptious dinner. We’ve eaten at a lot of local restaurants in Fairhope over the years, some good and some not so good, but this experience was definitely the most pleasurable we’ve ever experienced. We highly recommend a visit and hope you are treated to the same hospitality we were.

The side of pickles were literally 2 slices of pickles. Not spears two slices. Sad. The bread which is usually the cornerstone of a great sandwich restaurant was typical store...

Wish this place was a normal good quality sandwich shop. All the items are purposefully eclectic without substance. With good ingredients, a simple roast beef on French bread is wonderful. However, I left hungry without ordering anything due to the menu, brought the to go menu to my wife and we agreed it's not quality but rather eccentricity. Creating a sandwich shop like we have on the West Coast out here would be an easy win...
