usually while reviewing local cafes i try to avoid low stars such as this… but this was cruel.
the decorations were very cutesy, and it was very clean on the interior. lots of others seemed to think so since it was PACKED. which somewhat threw me off guard, though i know the cafe can’t control this.
the actual food itself… $7 for a cinnamon bun, AND forcing me to leave a tip?!? for putting a bun in a box… i’m sorry?
that isn’t the end of the nightmare. the cinnamon bun tasted just like bread.. and the cream cheese frosting?? um i think she accidentally slabbed on plain cream cheese, cause it tasted like i was eating a bagel. i’ve had raisin bread more cinnamon bun tasting than ts. and id also get like three loaves of said bread for the price of ONE cinnamon bun.

I bought a regular iced matcha latte with oat milk and it came out to $11 without tip. It was basically completely milk and had barely any matcha in it.

Expensive!! 2 16oz oat milk lattes were $19 before taxes.
Amazing food, we were licking our fingers at the end. The cafe is adorable and beautifully decorated and such a pleasant place to spend time in. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful - can’t wait to eat here again! My only gripe are the prices, I found them a little steep.

We love The Bee’s Knees! Such a fun, cozy, eclectic spot with lots of bright windows, plants and cute bee decor. Their coffee is always great, food is tasty and fresh and service is consistently warm and friendly. There are many seating options at tables and a couple cozier spots by the fireplace. Bathrooms are always tidy and clean (which, to me is a huge bonus, especially when coming with kids). Would easily recommend :)
