The Hive - East Coast Kitchen & Coffee Bar

So good! Loved our waitress and atmosphere! We were on vacation and HAD to come back!

Best frittata I have ever had. Chef came out and checked on us. My group was feeling goofy this morning and the waitress was very patient and helpful with us. The Goetta was delicious. I recommend going upstairs to check out the lounge/coffee shop area if you’re not feeling a sit down meal. Yahoo!

I honestly was so excited for a new brunch spot close to home. But was truly disappointed in this experience. We were sat within 5-10 mins of arriving with a group of 5 on a Sunday around 10. Which was great…. But the food was less than satisfying.
First off, we had two toddlers 2 and 4 who were trying to order while we ordered for them. Our server actually listened to them and put in they’re food orders without confirming with us. So we got extra orders of food that we did not want or need. She ordered us two extra orders of bacon which were not even fully cooked. And extra biscuits which were so dark and hard that we and our kids were not even able to eat. Then we ordered the kids eggs scrambled with cheese. The cheese was literally just thrown in top. Not melted not anything. Must’ve forgot until they were about ti send it out about the cheese. Then the kids potatoes were cold as well. I was also so excited about the French toast which was so hard I was unable to chew. I wasn’t even able to cut it so I had to pick it up with my hands.
The final straw for me was that on the weekends, they will not serve “speciality” coffee which is anything other than just hot coffee at your table. You have to go upstairs to get those. They do not have that posted online or even in the restaurant itself. Nor did the hostess let us know that while we waited. Overall less than stellar place. Willing to potentially give it another try in future when the restaurant has worked out a few kinks. But it won’t happen on a weekend !!!

Now open is The Hive. This quaint restaurant has a nice e choice of breakfast and lunch items. Great coffee choices or have a mimosa with a breakfast bowl or waffle. Great service and very good food. Don't pass this breakfast up in Erlanger Ky.

Disappointing. Pick up order 30 min later then I was told it would be ready by. Tomato Bisque looked like Pizza sauce. French toast did not have syrup and tasted like buttered garlic bread. MY bowl wasn't hot enough to melt the cheese that was on it even with the gravy on top. Parking was horrible to navigate. Hostess was less than friendly and helpful. Multiple older people complaining about the large staircase to get up to the bakery/ cafe. Good idea. Bad planning.

This is the Best place ever in Erlanger! I had the Gotta sandwich and a bloody Mary!! It was rocking! The we got the 4th of July dessert! U gotta go if u are in Erlanger! I forgot to take a pic I was so hungry & hungover! But the food was superb!!💕

I wasn't super impressed. The food was... okay. Small portions and high prices. Our bill was $69 (before the tip) and I'm still hungry. For those reasons alone, I don't see myself going back, but the service was pretty good. We were taken care of quickly and everyone was really nice.

A little pricey. However, It's hard finding a good place for breakfast. So, if I can find somewhere with good food, great service and amazing Cappuccino, I'll spend the time and money again. And those are my thoughts when I think of The Hive.

Neat little place! We went for our lunch break. Food was really good. Service was solid and had a pretty quick turn around. We'll be back for certain!

The food is crazy good!! I came and had the Italian beef and my mind was blown away with how good it was. The space is so pretty, filled with amazing art work! 5/5 recommend!! :))
