The Beehive Cafe was fantastic. We got the Egg sandwiches, one as is and one with added bacon. We also got cortados and a dirty chai which were both fantastic. We got lucky there was available seating (a non-holiday Saturday at 215pm) because I can see how they can easily run out of seating in the winter time. There is a bunch of outdoor seating for the warmer months that I would imagine greatly helps. Overall a fantastic experience, all the employees were very welcoming and willing to help or provide anything needed. They use cool animals to mark the tables when waiting for your food. We had the blue whale. You order at the counter, you wait for the drinks and they bring the food to you.

Amazing! The food was incredibly delicious — so far the best French toast I’ve ever had! The staff were friendly and welcoming, and my order came out quickly. Definitely a 10/10. I’ll be back for sure!

Absolutely love The Beehive! I’ve come here so many times and I can’t believe I’ve never left a review. The food is always consistent and delicious. My go-to is the avocado toast, it never disappoints. I’ve also tried several of their lattes, and every single one has been great.
Lately, I’ve been hooked on their watermelon mint tea refresher; it’s so refreshing and perfect for summer.
This weekend, it was super busy and we had quite a wait, but the staff was incredibly kind and accommodating. We ended up taking our food to go and enjoyed it at the park by the water. Such a great brunch experience.
Highly recommend!

This was easily our favorite place to eat and hang in Bristol, RI when we visited. The atmosphere was both fun and it was buzzing even though it was raining on the day we went. The egg sandwich plate was filling, but was not too much. The bacon strips were well seasoned, cooked well, and were thick. Eating upstairs was a fun experience and there’s even a little deck with seating. One minor thing they could do better is orange juice. They give you a small 8 oz bottle.

Visited Bristol today! Had to check out The Beehive cafe. They give you animal figures as your table marker. I ordered the not your mom’s meat loaf. Definitely, not my mom’s meat loaf. The flavor had a lot of anise seed in it. I am not a fan of anise so it tasted like licorice to me. The onions were sautéed, still had a bite not very caramelized. There was too much onions as well. The white bread was toasted to perfection. The spiced ketchup was very odd. It tasted very overly sweet bbq sauce and did not pair well with everything. My hash was not seasoned and only one side was crispy, and the other side was cooked just not as appealing as crispy hash browns. My partner got the Beehive mixed salad. There was more mixed greens than ingredients, no balance between the ingredients. The balsamic vinaigrette was nice and complimented the greens. Service was great! There’s a seat yourself dining room. They only maintain the bus bucket, not really the dining room or restroom. Chia latte was excellent! Maybe they are more appealing for breakfast.

Went here for breakfast and this place was very nice. You first walk in and there are menus to your right. You place your order and they give you a cute animal table place holder!! Then they have upstairs seating where you wait for them to bring up your food. Their food was really good and their staff is very friendly. They have a small patio on the 2nd floor and infront of the restaurant for Summer time. You have to clear your own table and place empty plates in designated area. They only have street parking.

Finally stopped by the Beehive after passing it many times while in the area. Went with a breakfast burrito and added sausage. Thought it was okay. Not a fan of the sausage, would likely try bacon or something else next time. Gets a little pricey when you add and use the online ordering. $24 for a breakfast burrito needs to be a home run. Burrito and side of hash browns was filling.

Easily one if the best cafes in Rhode Island. Period. Quick and friendly service, with great and creative drinks, while serving top-notch brunch food. Easy to understand why it’s so popular even in the dead of winter. Will absolutely be back.

The beehive is appropriateely named because there is always a buzz around it. If I’m looking for coffee and something to eat, and maybe a bit of local news or looking for something local to do I’ll stop by and check out their community board (Personally I think they have the most thorough community board in the area, I’ve found so much I had no idea was available locally from their board) they are usually busy and for good reason because they have lots of good food options for breakfast and a light lunch for reasonable prices and their coffee is just right :). I took my mom here shortly after moving back to the area and she loved it so much! The Baristas are always kind and thoughtful, they are great at knowing good recommendations off the top while keeping the line moving. I also like stopping here and if there isn’t space to sit at the cafe, I’ll walk down to Independence park and sip there.
