Em's Kitchen At Hawthorne Drugs
975 Hawthorne Ave Ste B, Watkinsville, GA
Crema's Take
“Tucked inside a charming Watkinsville drugstore, Em's Kitchen fills the air with the aroma of freshly baked goods and home-cooked warmth that keeps families and friends coming back. The owners clearly care about fresh ingredients and thoughtful details—from generous gluten-free options to daily specials like their shrimp wraps—making it the kind of neighborhood spot where you feel genuinely welcomed the moment you walk in. Whether you're lingering over coffee on the outdoor patio or grabbing a made-to-order sandwich, this is comfort food done right.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Light food on the menu. Family friendly.

The ladies were nice. $10.25 for this though wasn’t really worth it. Especially when it came to the eggs. Very small portion🫤
Very impressed with Em’s Kitchen. I walked in and it smelled like freshly baked goods. The place was clean and the workers were friendly and welcoming. I had the egg salad sandwich and it was amazing. The egg salad was tasty and it was served on toasted marble rye. YUM.
