The owners are always so sweet and personable. I love their chicken salad on a toasted buttery croissant the most. Also Their outdoor area is so pretty and peaceful.
Googled for coffee shops. It is in the back graden of a spa. There was a play ground for the kids and an outdoor seating area that was inviting. The store front was full of local products. Definitely recommend.
Cute little cafe with tasty pastries and good coffee! I'm excited to go back, what a great addition to the area!
Lovely beautiful nurturing small space tucked behind Spa Royale. Welcoming staff. Mostly outdoors with a charming array of interesting yard decorations, murals and even hammocks. Great quiet space to relax and hang out with friends. There's also a creative gift space.
This is such a delightful coffee shop! The coffee and baked goods were delicious. The staff were friendly and offered great suggestions. There are times and places for big-chains, but the Honeybee Café is a small, local business that beats big chains by a mile! Most of the seating is outdoors and it’s a beautiful and inviting place. It was a little hard to find, because I expected more of a front-facing storefront. You have to walk toward the back of the building to see the Honeybee. It truly is a hidden gem and worth experiencing!
Yummy pasta bowl and delicious tea. I’ll definitely be back to try the chicken salad!
This is by far one of my favorite coffee places in Gainesville! The owner is such a ray of light and the atmosphere isn't like any other place in the Ville. I cannot recommend this place enough! Do yourself the favor and visit here and enjoy both the place and it's delicious Costa Rican coffee❤️ PS you HAVE to try the Maple Muffin dipped in the coffee, SO DELISH
Sweet hidden gem! We cherish outdoor nature spots! I loved watching the birds, and swinging in the hammocks while enjoying our coffee and pastries! Friendly service from the owner! It was a lovely, relaxing treat! Definitely coming back and telling friends! Love the art by Visionary Fam on the building! It’s located behind Spa Royale! Fabulous architecture/woodsy location! 🐝💗
The owners are super friendly and sweet. So many choices and other things in this shop. Local honey, farm fresh eggs, candy of all kinds, coffee beans, chocolate covered coffee beans, and more. I didn’t know what to get, so they recommended their signature honeybee latte. I got it iced with oat milk and now I regret getting a small size. My husband got a Cuban and that is also delicious. Their chicken salad is very good. The everything bagel is not a small bagel and it is absolutely covered in everything. I plan on coming here any time in I’m Gainesville.
This place is awesome! The atmosphere is so quaint and the Honey Bee theme is adorable! The food is delish (chicken salad croissant!) and serviced servings are generous! And the staff is fantastic!!
I had the pleasure of visiting the Honey Bee coffee shop in Gainesville, Florida, and it was an incredible experience. From the moment I walked in, I was struck by the cozy and inviting atmosphere, and the welcoming smile of Mary, one of the owners of the shop. The decor was charming, with a rustic yet modern vibe, and the space was filled with the aroma of freshly brewed coffee. The menu was extensive and included a wide range of coffee drinks, as well as tea, pastries, and light bites. I decided to try their signature honey latte, which was simply delicious, with the perfect balance of sweetness and rich, creamy espresso. But what really sets the Honey Bee apart is the exceptional service provided by Mary and David, the other owner. They are both incredibly friendly, warm, and knowledgeable, and they truly make you feel like a welcomed guest in their home. They took the time to chat with me, answer any questions I had, and make recommendations based on my preferences. Overall, the Honey Bee is hands down the best coffee shop in Gainesville, Florida. The ambiance, drinks, and food are all top-notch, and Mary and David are simply amazing. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great cup of coffee and a wonderful experience.
The Honey Bee Café is one of my regular stops every time I come into town! Lots of great options including some food from local businesses and unique treats/gifts with a lovely atmosphere! The owners are so wonderful and always a joy to visit!! Definitely recommend!!
Great coffee from great people! Great selection of local treats and worldly merch. Nothing beats coffee on a hammock
Delicious drinks, quality service, and adorable atmosphere 😍
Amazing place for quality time and coffee! Owners are great conversationalists and prior service! Me and the wife came in before work and were very happy with our order. #D.ROD #AATW #80DUCE
My husband and I were looking for a quick coffee to grab after a doctor's appointment and found this lovely shop. The couple running the cafe where amazing. The coffee was delicious and the atmosphere was very inviting. The donuts hit the sweet tooth just right. 10/10 highly recommend. I just wish they were open later than 3p
Looks amazing. Unfortunately closed before a few of us got there to try out their coffee and croissant sandwiches.
YISSSSS! Definitely a must! The Lavender Honey Latte is everything! The amount of energy I got from this drink 7 hours later and still kickin got me 🙃😎 the everything bagel from Luke’s was stellar with the broccoli cheese soup. Super cute little shop with tidbits from all over. The owner David is super chill! There’s 4 hammocks outside in the trees, and some seating area outside as well. I tried to do suggest edit to relocate the google pin to the correct spot where the cafe is located but google wouldn’t let me. But there’s small signs on the ground at the sidewalk that lead you threw a gate and the coffee shop is down there on the left 🙃🙆🏽♀️
I stopped by to grab a coffee and let me tell you, this place is so adorable, and the coffee was amazing! I would highly recommend checking them out!
Amazing cafe serving up the BEST coffee, sandwiches, muffins, bagels, donuts, smoothies…alllll the yummies by wonderful people, Mary & David. They have created a warm & inviting atmosphere that makes you feel at home the minute you are walking down the sidewalk to enter the cafe. Colorful murals, outside seating & hammocks make this spot kid & pet friendly as well. Stop by The Honeybee Cafe & Hive it your way!!!
