The Honeybee Cafe

We are from out of town and tried this cute little spot for breakfast. The food was delicious, the staff was kind, the drinks were awesome. We loved everything about it! We've been trying to experience different places while out here and we loved the Honeybee Cafe so much, we're going to come back again tomorrow!

New startup with really good food and service!

Food was disappointing. My table of three ordered fairly basic breakfast items. I had a ham and cheese omelet which was alright, although the ham seemed highly processed and the presentation of the food was below average on the plate. Not too bad overall. I ordered a side of sausage to go with the main meal and that was a disaster. It was super oily and seemed undercooked. I took one bite and didn't eat anymore. I asked one of the others in my party to try it to see if it was just me, she thought it was bad as well. Bacon on her plate was very unevenly cooked. Burnt spots on some parts, but undercooked on others. The worst part was the third person with us who ordered a stand alone blueberry muffin with her meal. First couple bites were okay, but then I saw her face grimace suddenly on the third bite. She said it tasted fishy, and so didn't eat anymore of it. Service staff seemed okay, although obviously new at the job. No napkins or silverware provided, I had to go up and ask for some. Not a big deal I guess. The main server seemed to be training the second during her shift, so that's probably something that will improve over time. We're normally pretty laid back and forgiving of restaurants and we're not the type to complain to a manager or even post a bad review. But the bill for this experience was around $50 and we just felt it was not even close to what we expected. I hope this business can get these growing pains figured out and standardize their cooking processes for a more consistent experience. I support local businesses but this place needs improvement if they want to stand the test of time.

I order a hot chocolate freezy today, and it was absolutely delicious! They were easily able to accommodate adding oat milk instead of dairy milk

Staff is amazing and friendly. The drinks are amazing

Espresso macciato was like steamed milk without the espresso. A waste of $4.

Isabelle was so incredibly nice! We have two little girls and she was so accommodating. The food/ coffee selection was perfect and delicious. Can’t wait to go back again :)

The best energy drinks in the area and very well priced! Staff is very friendly and the owner goes above and beyond! Will be going again for sure!🙂🙂

I was super excited to try this place when they opened, and support one of the local businesses nearby. My expectactions immediately dwindled within the first minute of being there. The workers were very disorganized and we were met with a load of attitude. The cinnamon rolls were tiny for the price, hard, and not properly iced. The coffee was weak and bland. Extremely overpriced menu for the quality (or lack thereof.) The owner is rude and degrading. There's a wonderful coffee shop in Ellsworth (20 minutes away) called Precipice Coffee, the owners are wonderful, down to earth people with aaamazing coffee and treats. I suggest you spend your money there instead!

Adorable and cozy! Locally owned! Yummy food and amazing drinks!!

Locally women owned and run! Coffee drinks and redbull drinks are amazing! Don’t forget to check out the many vegan breakfast options! Very friendly and welcoming baristas!

I recently visited The Honeybee Cafe and tried one of the Barbie girl energy drinks and wow!! I barely made it out the door with it, it was so good! And their paninis?? I’ve lived in this are my entire life and I’ve never had a better panini. The service was amazing, the girls who run it are very sweet, and have the best recommendations. And the prices were VERY fair (I live and work on MDI, so the comparison is insane!). Couldn’t recommend them enough and I can’t wait to come back!

Lexi and her staff are kind and welcoming! Food and drinks are delicious! A must try for sure

I absolutely love this cafe! They atmosphere is so, SO cute, the staff is beyond friendly & they never make my coffee wrong! If you haven’t tried the new holiday flavors- you’re missing out! Reasonably priced & those muffins are unmatched!😍

Overpriced and underwhelming. Nasty owner.

A great place for breakfast and some sweet specialty coffees, though the specialty coffees vary in taste based on who's working. However, the service is great and the woman we got making our drinks did offer to remake any that didn't taste right. They had some amazing specialty breakfast sandwiches that were vegetarian, which was a pleasant surprise! Would definitely recommend it and go back on our next trip!

What a cute hidden gem!! Super friendly staff, amazing breakfast sandwiches, and great espresso drinks! Loved all of the fall flavors as well. One of my favorite touches, though, is the lactaid at the front register 🥺🥺 while they offered alternative milks, it was literally the most thoughtful addition I've ever encountered at a coffee shop. Would definitely stop by again!

Fadt service with good coffee.

Just stopped by on our road trip through Maine had a wonderful latte and grabbed some homemade goodies to go along with it. Staff was super friendly and accommodating with my Unique latte requests!

Everything was delicious!
