I’m not generous with my reviews. But this little gem? 5 starts well earned. Quality. Cozy. And a sweet, dedicated staff. It’s grammar’s house, love and food…just at a cafe. Well done. Very well done. The biscuits and gravy are home away from home and I’m a hard sell on that food item. My finicky one year old is eating them! The coffee is great. And I hate coffee. If I lived in Minnesota, I’d want to be here every day.

Stellar service from the staff! They offer many gluten-free entrées as well as desserts. The coffee was crafted with care and accompanied a delightful flavor. Our family had several nutritional questions and Tony went the extra mile to be as helpful as possible to our inquiries. If you can’t decide what to order, Tony is great at food suggestions! They make all their desserts from scratch including the gluten-free ones!

The girls do a great job here. Love coming in to have coffee and conversation. They also have wonderfully prepared food options, as well as a broad food sensitivity menu.

I was pleasantly surprised to find a great coffee shop with delicious food and gifts at all price points. Their waffles are fabulous, served hot with your choice of toppings. The gifts are in every price point and all high quality. You could find a gift for anyone in there.Kid-friendliness: There are toys and books to look through

My husband, 9 month old and I stopped in for a late lunch on our way through town on HWY 23.It was so nice and relaxing! Our kiddo needed a break from her car ride and the calm environment and sweet natured employees were just what we needed at the time!We each had a sandwich (BLT and a build your own w/ Turkey)I enjoyed their coffee a lot, I should have found out what brand they were brewing!The cute little items for sale were fun to look at too!Would stop again if traveling that direction!Thank you!

Long story short the kid's working there have no communication skills didn't know the menu...I never got a friendly greeting or a hello !my lunch was well ...anyways I was trying to help out our small and local businesses, but unfortunately I won't be back! Please train your staff to be respectful of the public trying to keep your door's open. They should be mindful of customers ,welcome us make it a nice experience for all not to much to ask right? And a smile wouldn't hurt either.

This is a wonderful coffee shop and boutique. If you want something different than fast food, that has a clean, like-home atmosphere this is for you. Always an enjoyable experience. Nice homemade gifts too. Highly recommend!

The Bee was a lucky find when I exited 169 on my way to Brainerd because I needed coffee. I walked out with the BEST Americano I've had in a long time, though I wish it hadn't been such a short visit due to needing to get back on the road. I had just a few minutes to browse while I waited for my drink, but they were enough to see the high quality of the jewelry, personal products and other items for sale in the shop. I'll be back!
