Busy Bee is the best place to get breakfast in the city, hands down. It is cash-only, but the prices cannot bee beat. You can eat in or take out. Inside, you’ll find a traditional diner setup: a counter with swivel stools and a few booths. The waitresses are all friendly and adorable and are well-acquainted with their regular customers. The gentlemen who run cook the meals (and own the place) are fantastic as well. I like to come here before work to grab a breakfast sandwich because the service is fast, the price is cheap ($0.92), and the food is absolutely delicious. Definitely a diamond in the rough that everybody should check out.

It’s a family run American Resturant.
It has an old fascinating look .
The food is really good.
The owner is friendly and also helps to tailor any menu item to your taste.
It’s a must visit breakfast place if you are in downtown.

Stepped back in time entering the Busy Bee this afternoon for lunch with my father-in-law, wife and sister-in-law.

The prices are straight out of the 70s. A breakfast sandwich for $0.92. That’s not a typo, under a buck for an egg and cheese sandwich on an English muffin.

I went with a Rochester tradition of the garage plate, well their version of it. Hot dogs. Fries. Chili. Mac salad and mustard and onions. Quite a meal.

Father-in-law had the same meal he’s been having for 55 years. 2 eggs. Bacon (limp). Home fries and a tall glass of milk.

We also had a grilled cheese and the 2-2-2 at our table and everything was spot-on.

If diner food is what your craving. Don’t pass up on the Busy Bee .

Excellent old fashioned diner, from the food to the decor to the friendly older fellas who have been at it for over 40 years. Everything is authentic, delicious and cooked fresh.

It was alright… just not what I expected from a NY diner. DO NOT order the coffee.

Hash browns and omelette were good.

One of the best deals downtown. The food is very good and the prices are fair. I can see why they were very busy before the pandemic but now Downtown Rochester is a ghost town and they have very few customers. If you get a chance give them a try. I’d recommend the BLT club sandwich. Note: they are cash only, but they do have an ATM.

Very cute diner with great service. Everyone was kind and the food was so good. My boyfriend had a western omelette and still has not stopped talking about it. I had the 2-2-2 and was pleasantly surprised about all the prices. Would recommend to all I know!

I only had a few minutes between appointments and hadn’t had time to eat breakfast or lunch. I didn’t think they would be able to cook me anything, but stopped for a coffee. The waitress told me they could make me pancakes and eggs in a snap, and she went kidding! Less than 5 minutes and I had a hot meal made fresh AND a coffee she put in a to go cup so I could take what I didn’t finish with me.
They only have margarine, not real butter, but they have a secret ingredient in the batter that made for rich flavor…I only used a tiny drop of syrup and found the pancakes were delicious on their own. Granted, I don’t eat a lot of sugar, so a little sweet goes a long way for me, but the sunny side up eggs broken over the hotcakes was a very filling meal. Held me over from 1:20 PM until a very late dinner…and the low price was an unbelievable deal.
I was told the spaghetti is worth going back for, and the lunches being cooked up did look and smell tempting
They do an egg breakfast sandwich for only $1 WITH tax included!
Sadly, they are only open until about 2 PM, which is why my night owl schedule has kept me from discovering this gem, but whenever I’m out and about early enough, I’ll be back for the efficient and helpful service.

But bring cash, to keep your meal cost reasonable, they don’t take credit cards.
