Great breakfast favorites, delicious coffee, friendly service and a fun atmosphere that makes you want to stick around for a bit to enjoy the ambiance. I was stressed out this morning and stopped here to have a coffee while I did some work on my phone, and left relaxed. Love this little hidden oasis! read more

3.5 stars- cute little cafe in Clyde Hill that I met up with a friend on a Saturday morning. Place was busy enough that small lot was full, parked on neighborhood street which was easy enough. Tried the original Queen bee latte which was good but agree with other posters that coffee felt slightly watered down. There were some hot food sandwich options but did not try any of them. Don't think I'd come specifically for this but would come back again if I happen to be in the area for something else read more

Five stars for the friendliness of the employees. However, the wait times for your order to be ready and the fairly frequent unexpected closures without notice, earn it a 2.5 stars. read more

Beautiful space, super friendly staff, and great coffee. However, the music played is loud and jarring rather than calm and relaxing, which I think most people who visit coffee shops are looking for. Lounge/club music is not a good fit. Would be nice if management could look into this. read more

The coffee was good, but they didn't follow the order and skipped me and made it for their familiar customers first. read more

Queen Bee Cafe - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Clyde Hill, Washington

Made a yelp account just to spread the word. This was one of the worst coffee experiences I've had. The barista handed me my drink and said, "Thanks, man," which was incredibly disrespectful and completely off. All the coffee shops I go to in Seattle have never misgendered me based on how I look -- it's not hard to be mindful and treat people with basic respect. On top of that, the coffee was absolutely terrible. It tasted burnt & bitter like it had been sitting there all day. Between the misgendering and the undrinkable coffee, I won't be coming back. This place needs serious training in both customer service and coffee read more

I am writing this to share a disappointing experience I had today. I came in to order a smoothie and was not asked for my name, while other customers were. Several people who ordered after me received their drinks before I did, and no one offered an apology or update. When I went to the counter to ask about my smoothie, I was told, "He'll get to it when we get to it," which felt dismissive and unprofessional. I was unaware of the smoothie or the name of the drink and the person I ordered it from proceeded to go tell another employee about the situation and then laughed about it as if it was a joke. Highly disappointed in this establishment, and the service I received today. read more

Cute little cafe in Clyde Hill. As a person who lives for a great cup of coffee, the coffee was pretty underwhelming. I added a dash of cream and immediately saw how light the coffee was- not full bodied in any way- disappointing. The cafe itself is cute- love the honeycombs and bee's. I tried the breakfast sandwich which was tasty. It was served with some pretty sour grapes. Service was welcoming. Overall- it meets the need for coffee if you need some caffeine. read more

Visiting Seattle and dropped in for breakfast. Service was great and food even better. Cute & quaint cafe. I would definitely visit again!

After walking across the 520 to Medina, my friends and I stopped to brunch at Queen Bee Cafe. It's a wonderful tucked-away little cafe with great vibes and a nice selection of foods. FYI, it's a walk up and order then sit yourself down place. I was super curious about their drinks but just decided on the Prosciutto and Arugula Sandwich. I thought the sandwich was super yummy albeit a bit small, but I had a couple of qualms. One, there was chicken in the sandwich.. which I loved, but it was unexpected since it wasn't listed on the menu board. I was a little sad b/c brie was mentioned as an ingredient but I felt like there was barely any. But honestly, the sandwich was so good that it wasn't a big deal! Next time I'm in Medina I'd love to come back. read more

This is my favorite spot in Seattle! It's all the way out in Clyde Hill. They used to have a location in Capitol Hill, but it unfortunately shut down. The cafe is so thoughtfully decorated, with a warm bright interior and tons of honeycomb and bee inspired creations. The crumpets I had were heavenly--they were warm and paired with whipped cream, a drizzle of honey, fresh honeycomb, and even edible flower petals. They offer a wide selection of lattes too to pair something a little bitter with the sweet. If it weren't so far, I'd be there all the time! It does close fairly early in the afternoon, but it seems like a good spot to work (not too busy, lots of others reading or on their laptops, and outlets available). They also have savory crumpets that I would love to try, with one featuring Beecher's and blueberry compote. It's on the pricey side, but after a long walk or workout or on a perfect Sunday morning, Queen Bee hits the spot! read more

First time here and NEVER again. The service was quick but the drink was insanely terrible. I got the iced white chocolate mocha asked for it to be made with soy, the guy made it with whole milk. The neighborhood was so lovely, calm & fancy but they chose such terrible music for ambiance. The cashier was nice but not very outgoing, we tried to have a conversation with them but they didn't seem interested, totally ok but not a great first time experience. read more

Beautiful space to meet up, or enjoy a coffee and/or food. The patio is nice too. Coffee is great. Paninis are great. I wish they had salads. Chocolate chip cookie was good too. I'll definitely come back when in the neighborhood. Service is friendly and pretty fast. read more

My daughter accidentally left her favorite teddy bear here. We came back looking for it several days later and the staff said they remembered it but it had been thrown away. Very disappointing and inconsiderate given that they have a lost and found. read more

We ran across this cafe by chance driving By & decided to try it. Coffee was great, both had really great flavor. The Orange Chocolate Mocha was an interesting flavor. They have an extremely limited menu, so it's not the best time to stop by if you're looking for food. Pretty decent amount of tables/chairs that were spread out. The decor is really cute inside. I would come again for the coffee! read more

I have always liked it here. Great area nice size cafe. Indoor and outdoor seating. Good prices good coffee. Parking is not very hard to find either. read more

Their location in cap hill was good, if slow. But this location served their crumpet with a tiny tab of pesto and a huge pile of smoked salmon - could have been really good, and I'm always glad to have extra salmon, but it was just bread and salmon - which isn't really what you're paying for... that was fine, not bad, but the coffee was mouth burningly hot ... I mean, these are all very small things compared to the suffering int the world, but if one is comparing coffee shops, then this particular visit made be skeptical about going back.... It was just fine, like, 51:49 not recommended- but with other options......in a pinch it's fine,.. and maybe it was an off day. read more

Super bland, watery, burnt mud water coffee... expected so much better in such a nice neighborhood. I have an appreciation for a good drip black, esp in the morning... was tired so thought I'd treat myself instead of making it. Gross. I went home and added a double shot of espresso, milk and sugar. Don't waste your money here if you want real coffee. Ginger molasses cookie was 3/5. I like that it's soft and chewy. Not much Ginger flavor tho. read more

Everything there is amazing! The staff is also friendly. Love that it is family And pet friendly. read more

Really nothing special. And 'Cafe' isn't accurate. It's a place to get to go coffee & sandwiches. My turkey panini was not great. Definitely won't get that again. On a hot dog bun, but put in a panini press? Put in panini press long enough to make the bun hard & crunchy, but not long enough to make the sandwich inside warm. Just kind of not cold I guess. Kind of worse than leaving it as a cold turkey sandwich frankly. I was also really bothered that they serve everything in to go containers. With plastic forks. I wanted to eat in, enjoy a coffee & a sandwich. In a cup. On a plate. But it's all served in to go containers. Very disappointed. I abhor plastic utensils!! So even if you eat here, inside the 'cafe', you're essentially getting to-go food. Inside was cute. Order & pick up at counter. Grab yourself a seat style. Coffeehouse. read more

Beautiful space and charming outside. coffee very disappointing to any real coffee drinker - I mean paper cups!!! I would expect better from the fancy location. I get great coffee beautifully presented on my Seattle street. espresso in ceramic on its little tray with sparkling water in small glass. Not just my street but several places within 2 mile radius. what's up with Hunts Point? I wasn't able to sample the food on this occasion but I'd like to get back and would hope for better coffee experience. read more

You will be embraced by the warm homey atmosphere as soon as you step in. Limited menu but good quality. Service was fairly quick even though it was packed on a weekend. I had the avocado toast and orange chocolate mocha. Both were actually quite good!! Only downside is the street parking. If you happen to come on a weekend, be prepared to walk!!! read more

The coffee here is heavenly. The food is also heavenly, I mean, they have CRUMPETS! We ordered a smoked salmon crumpet along with an E.P. I.C (a hearty croissant sandwich with egg and bacon) and I didn't talk through the entire meal cuz I was chewing every bite. I love their bee-themed interior and the way they are kinda tucked away almost secretly in a nature-y residential area just adds to the charm. Their service is quick and polite even though there was a long line gathering for Friday brunch, I was very impressed. I will bee back to try their waffles!! read more

Cute little cafe in a neighborhood. Coffee was good and had interesting flavors that were honey forward. Staff was friendly and the vibe was cute and chill. read more

We used to frequent the Tully's here and would stop in occasionally before school pick ups for something to drink and something sweet. We were sad when it closed especially because of the friendly staff. The new cafe is cute with its sweet design and what feels like so much more natural light and beautiful greenery outside. My daughter enjoyed the cookie and ice tea we tried. We will definitely be back. read more

What an enjoyable experience nearly every time! The coffee is great, the staff is friendly, the restrooms and nice/clean, and there is ample seating. The prices are a bit steep but I've seen worse. It's a great place to meet someone for a meeting because parking is ample and there is usually somewhere to sit. During the warmer seasons, exterior seating is a great choice, especially if you enjoy watching fancy cars drive by. I'd like to see 1 free drip refill here, and some other establishments that charge for refills on drip--I don't understand why you would charge for refills when a consumer can go to a restaurant, order as good of quality of coffee, and get as many refills as they want? One free drip refill seems reasonable. That said, I do love the concept of this place and the fact that all profits go to charity. If I'm going to spend the money, I would rather here than some faceless corporation. One bit of feedback is there's a weird scenario that's happened here a few times where the place smells like something is burning. I don't know why this occurs but it detracts from the experience. All-in-all, I would recommend this place wholeheartedly to anyone. Oh, and they use the Joe coffee app so you can order ahead and get rewards. read more

Super cute little cafe kinda out in the middle of residential homes but a nice little parking lot! I met up with friends for some outdoor hangs and got the mocha frappe (yum) and their honey crumpet (divine!). The crumpet was very small (english muffin size) with a little dollop of whip, drizzle of honey and a small piece of honeycomb for $5. Definitely a bit pricey but satisfying! My friend is a frequent flier here and had reward points so if you're close by remember to sign up for some deals! read more

Fun place to get a coffee and some breakfast in the Clyde Hill/Bellevue/Medina area. There is a parking lot, which can be pretty fulling the morning, but you can also park on the street. Overall the staff are helpful and friendly and the food comes out in a reasonable amount of time. If you're in the area, stop by for a bite or some caffeine! read more

My husband and I went to brunch with my daughter. Food: 5 Stars Service: 4.5 Stars Atmosphere 4.5 Stars We enjoyed our meal. My daughter had a croissant and like it a lot. My husband had the lox dish and it was very good. I had the Belgian waffle with berries and it was an above average waffle. I also had a chai latte that was very good. We were very happy with our meal and will be back to try other selections. My only disappointment was they were out of the Egg Benedict and the Epic. Those were my first two choices. read more

Super busy early mornings and weekends the food is yummy and the coffee is delicious would go again but not during rush hours

Exactly what I had hoped for and beyond what I expected. Above average cafe food, excellent coffee AND tea, friendly and accommodating service, and a laid back but upscale ambiance. Not overly pretentious like some places get, but still very classy. read more

The hive crumpet was delicious. Smoked salmon crumpet was also good, but the hive was better. Unfortunately the espresso in the latte had a salty, soy sauce taste to it which I've noticed in some local places in the PNW. read more

This is definitely more of a 3.5 almost 4, but Queen Bee Cafe was a cute coffee shop with lots of coffee and food options. It's a nice cafe that definitely has good vibes and nice areas to work, chat, and spend time in. But for a coffee shop, their coffee was just really mediocre. The coffee itself was hard to taste in the latte, as it was way overpowered by the syrup. I think it was just too sweet and lacked that authentic coffee taste I look for in my coffees, but that definitely could just be a personal preference. The shop itself is laid out very well, and it a nice little shop to stop by. I will say that parking may be tough though, so be prepared. The workers were very nice though, and it was obvious that the quality of the shop was very well taken care of. Overall good vibes, but probably won't be coming back again just because of the coffee itself. read more

queen bee cafe is certainly cute, though the location is a bit far from central bellevue downtown. unfortunately, the price point is a bit high for its toasts and breakfast muffins, with small portions. the most worth it are the salads. read more

Food: **** | Service: **** | Value: ** Such a cute cafe! We ordered the grilled cheese with bacon, turkey panini, and "the hive" crumpet. The food overall is pretty good, and I was genuinely surprised by the crumpet - the presentation was beautiful and the crumpet was delicious. One tip (more like an accidental discovery): get the Nutella shake and add a espresso shot - you won't regret it ;) totally would return to this place! read more

Love this cafe! We've gotten a few different things but I think my favorite has been the breakfast flatbread. So much flavor! Also absolutely love that profits go towards charity! We've also gotten a breakfast sandwich which was good, but pretty standard - nothing special. Nutella Crumpet was super yummy but small. highly recommend checking it out! read more

Simply adorable! I loved the theme of the place, with encouraging words, bees, and honeycomb tiles. I seem to also remember seeing a sign that said a portion of their profits are donated. What a nice way to enjoy your coffee and give back too. Food wise, the staple on their menu is crumpets, served in a variety of sweet and savory styles. They are petite-basically the size of half an English muffin with toppings, but the crumpet is fluffy and soft. You get one per order. I had the crumpet with lox and pesto. It was just what I needed! Salty served on a soft, fluffy pillow of baked delight. My friend got the Nutella and strawberry. It looked beautiful! I didn't end up getting a picture of my salmon crumpet because I ate it too quickly (lol). Location wise, I really liked how much street parking there was right outside. The parking lot isn't big, but there is plenty of wide open street up and down from this café. It's just around the corner after the roundabout off 520, so super convenient but also far enough away that it feels secluded and relaxing. I'm a fan. If I'm in the area again, I'll definitely swing by for another snack. read more
