I'd heard such good things about Beehive so I was excited to try it. My salmon fillet was $13 and quite delicious! I wasn't a huge fan of the orzo pasta but they had lots of options so next time I will pick differently. Their baked goods looked soooo tempting but I tried to make healthy choices!! There's no seating inside but they have 4 patio tables outside that each seat two. read more

Delicious Calzones and baked goods. Great cinnamon buns and turnover. Try the meatloaf calzones.

Dropped in for a coffee, but they were already out of the panini I wanted at 10am. The line was long, and the staff came off as unfriendly and unwelcoming. Tip options began at 20%, even though the woman at the register made me feel like I was an inconvenience. Not quite what I was hoping for. read more

Just came in here for the first time and it was so delicious. It's not the cheapest place around, but they really don't compromise on quality or flavor so it was totally worth it. We got hot chocolate and a London Fog, two sandwiches and a pastry and everything was delicious. Would 100% come back because they have such a good hot chocolate. The service was good and they had little tables outside so we could sit out. read more

The most friendly owners! Always present and helpful. Went in today for lunch. Everything is prepared and fresh. I got the cranberry pecan chicken wrap and it was so delicious. My boyfriend loves the chicken cutlets and orzo salad, and of course the PB balls for dessert. Love it! The salmon is also top notch. read more

Hi Sherry: We were not looking for a full breakfast however the selections were limited or sold out at 11:30. We settled on the panini but expected much for the price $11 it is more in relation to the overall size of the bread where the diameter is small or sub standard size compared to others. The thing we objected to in terms of attitude was how we were asked with her hand gestures to move back. Of course we would have obliged on our own if we felt as if we were in the way. After reading other reviews it appears several customers feel the same . My sister and I stopped there on our way out of town for a quick breakfast bite . We were very disappointed with both their rude behavior and the limited selections and the price of half a panini(11.00) Will not return, and do not recommend it. read more

I love this shop! They are the "pantry" to the Beehive Cafe, in downtown Bristol. They sell pastries, take and bake items (like cookie dough, Mac and cheese, pizza dough, etc.), cakes/cupcakes, premade food (such as seasoned cooked chicken breasts, salmon and sides) and other goodies. They also offer some items for a quick breakfast/lunch. This includes coffee, tea, two breakfast options and two lunch sandwiches (along with anything in the windows). There are usually lots of staff members working, so there is never a wait. I came in for the chickpea seasoning, which they use in the Cafe. Making roasted chickpeas with this flavor is one of my meal prep staples! Absolutely recommend a visit! I assure you it will become a regular stop for your errands. read more

I found dog hair in the frittata and let the staff know. I did not ask for anything in return and just wanted to bring it to their attention. The prices felt high for the quality and the level of service. Disappointing overall. read more

Delicious drinks and prepared food and very convenient. Staff always kind, even when there is a line out the door

Great food and great location. My wife loves the Watermelon Mint Refresher after our walk

Great coffee and grab-and-go food. I highly recommend this place! They have several specialty drinks that are delicious. Today I tried the Chai Express and a breakfast brioche with mozzarella, tomato and pesto. Yum! read more

Any RWU ceramics student will tell you this place is great! I always stop here before heading to the studio. Everyone here is super sweet, and they also are really connected to the community. They have some of the best of the Beehive menu for takeout, make at home, and also great coffee and smoothies. read more

All the star is very kind. My food and drinks is always consistent and great. They have great cupcakes and cookies. Highly recommended mango smoothie. read more

We went to both the cafe and the pantry today (don't judge me, we are on vacation!) I liked the pantry better - but that's because I'm a savory over sweet type of gal. Due to the reviews, I had to try the butternut squash calzone. Definitely NOT what I would order, but my curiosity was peaked. Wow! Just wow. The crust was so thin and delicate - much different than others I have had. My husband chose the pepperoni calzone and tomato soup. Let me tell you - these people were not stingy with the meat!!! The soup was the best tomato soup I've ever had. read more

The oatmeal cookies are good but sometimes hard. I purchased a slice of lemon-vanilla cake and was very disappointed! Cake slice was stale, hard and awful! Please make certain all items you sell are fresh and delicious. Hopefully, my next slice of cake will be fresh and tasty. . Please read more

The BEST matcha I have had in my life. I ordered a large cranberry matcha and the staff was so helpful and sweet! Will be back.

small place - only place to sit is outside ...the coffee is delicious!! The cupcake was fresh and the frosting was a mile high! Beans are smoooth....will come again to try the sandwiches and other items in the store. read more

I enjoyed the pastries and drinks from this place. The staff was nice and accommodating.

Great food and friendly service I go there all the time and the food is always fresh .. Delicious specials daily their calzones are great, and the pastries are sooo delicious and she made the best gluten-free birthday cake for a birthday party ever !!!! people still telling me where do I get it and I keep telling them the beehive pantry !! Owner is so friendly and accommodating especially to allergy needs. Which is GREAT LOVE it there read more

I am torn about my rating but allow me to explain. I came across the Beehive Pantry through their social media and was immediately excited about the look of their donuts. Apparently donut Saturday is a big deal here so I had to partake. Based on pictures and reviews, it appeared that we should arrive early to make sure we didn't have to wait in a line. Their posts always say, "Come get them before they're gone!" My husband went when they opened on a Saturday and not only was there no line but there was also no donuts. We weren't aware that they weren't available until later in the morning. Bummer. Luckily they had some, but not all, made. My husband basically had to buy all that they had, although it was only about 10 donuts to begin with. He also got me a chocolate chip cookie and about $40 later he left (a bit pricey). We sampled the donuts and were very impressed by their old fashioned donuts. We were sad we didn't get to try the chocolate or their special but we did try cinnamon sugar and glazed. When I say these donuts are amazing, I am not kidding. I was not expecting them to be so good. The only negative about the old fashioned was that it tasted as if the frying oil was shared with something else like fries or something similar to that. It was slight but I could taste it. They're still very good though. The other donuts., however... We dug into the yeast raised next. We both took a bite of the plain glazed and looked at each other like, "How are these so terrible and the other ones were so insanely good???" They were chewy, tasteless, and honestly it felt like I was eating pizza dough. Very odd. We gave the coffee cake yeast a taste and it was the same thing. We didn't even want to try their strawberry yeast because we were too grossed out. I did give their peanut butter cheesecake filled a chance and had to spit it out. The filling tasted like spoiled milk and again it had the chewy pizza dough taste. What was happening? I have no clue but I really could not eat it. I must say their chocolate chip cookie was yummy but nothing memorable. So...in conclusion, go for the old fashioned donuts and do not bother with the yeast unless you're into that sort of thing. And I'm not sure what time you should go but I guess take a chance and figure it out for yourself. If they can perfect their yeast raised then they could certainly earn high ranks among the other RI donut gems. I will have to try some of their other goodies before completely turning them away but I am still confused about this place! read more

This place fell way below expectations. We stopped for something sweet. Malasata and banana fudge donuts were all they had left; We tried both. The banana fudge was ok, it tasted like banana bread with chocolate, nothing spectacular. The malasatas (Portuguese dough fried with granulated sugar) were so squishy they seemed like they were filled. They weren't, just very greasy and flavorless. Even the sugar coating didn't seem to change the greasy flavor. Paid $10.80 for 3 donuts. Bottom line: the donuts wet so disappointing we would not come here again. read more

The Beehive Pantry - Malasata on top and banana fudge doughnuts. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Bristol, Rhode Island

Tasteless macaroni salad. Don't even think they bothered to add salt. What happened?? This place used to be so good.

I went today for the first time . I was excited about going after reading all the positive reviews. I was sadly disappointed by one of the counter staff. She was abrupt and seemed like she wasn't interested in me looking around. It was more like hurry up and get out. From what I could tell it had a nice selection of coffee and tea. Pastry looked good. It was the end of the day so I'm sure there's more to choose from if you hit it in the am . I purchased two salads that looked great. I went because it was recommended by another yelp member. I noticed Some outdoor seating. I don't fault the business but it's important to feel comfortable when walking into a bakery/ cafe. Why would I want to share this new business with friends if you don't feel welcome. Hence the four stars. read more

Thank you to the entire Beehive Pantry team!!! You've made throwing a graduation party with 40-50 guests such a breeze! We served a number of dishes but the orzo salad was the star of the culinary show and a crowd favorite -- it's fresh, with orzo, arugala, fresh corn, feta, and it's filling. And the chocolate chip cookies are amazing -- the perfect desert for our event! Everything was excellent and the ordering, payment and pickup process was pleasant and simple. read more

Great pastry & sandwiches with several Gluten free options! They even have gf cookies! read more

Smoothie was freshly made, nice yogurt flavor. They let you combine fruits when you order.

WOW!!! Went there and got 2 coffees and pastry with my wife... Sate at open downstairs table and were enjoying the treats.... Waitress comes over as we are still drinking our coffees and told us "you have to leave or go find another seat upstairs.. We have a group of 8 coming in"... This was just the table where 4 or 5 people sit on a bench that has the condiments on it and its near the door... Well, what a rude thing to do... They don't have reservations (it' a coffee shop!) I thought of a lot of things to say when I left... NEVER AGAIN... Very inconsiderate thing to do... read more

I've been here several times, and live right around the corner. This should be my favorite go to spot that I can't resist. But it's not. I find the Customer Service less than ideal, impatient. I think they do get some regulars and they think everyone should just walk in and slam out an order. It's very cramped inside, and the seating outside is right on the parking lot. I'm a foodie but I've never found anything here I just had to have, again. It's got such a different vibe from the Beehive Café. Even though that place is much busier, it still has a comfortable feel to it. Here you walk in instantly you have people staring you down if you don't order right away. The difference has much to do with the design, it's very small. read more

It was my first time coming here (...and most likely my last). Disappointing experience as someone who also works as a barista and recently moved to Bristol. The two staff that served me did the very least and had awkward mannerisms. Ordered a latte but didn't get asked how I wanted it made. Dude had his undies snapped over his tee and other lady kept staring at me. Don't ask why I tipped them, I'm questioning myself too on that. One pro about the place tho is the cute yellow aesthetic and their wide menu. read more

My daughter recently got married in Bristol and we were looking for food to be delivered as the bridal party got ready for the wedding. A friend suggested the Beehive Pantry, and we are glad they did! The food was delivered on time, and it was delish!! The sandwiches we ordered were the turkey bacon brie, ham and swiss, and mozzerella, tomato and pesto. We also got a variety of salads - Crunchy Carrot Slaw, Greek Chickpea Salad and Curried Cauliflower. It's hard to say which dish was my favorite, because they were all wonderful! Em couldn't have been nicer as we were emailing back and forth, deciding on what to get. I am looking forward to other visits to Bristol, and will make sure a stop at The Beehive Pantry is at the top of our list of things to do! read more

I'm sad... I guess I should stick to baked goods here? I went today and ordered the Turkey with brie and bacon panini. My bacon was literally raw. I swear they must have put raw bacon on the sandwich and put it on the panini press and thought that would cook the bacon? The pre-made panini's in the case looked like the bacon on them was pre-cooked. It was horrible! I took all the bacon off the sandwich and threw it away. (I know I could have said something, but I'm always afraid of complaining and having someone do something nasty to my new order, if they offer me one.) read more

Here's the thing, I love beehive. I love how they have ample gluten free options. But I am disappointed that the pantry does not do their breakfast paninis/sandwiches on gluten free. I could understand cross contamination issues, then don't make them hot. I go to the pantry because it is quick and easy in and out. Please do sandos on gf bread please! Otherwise this would be a five star. read more

I love that you can stop by here and grab a healthy and delicious salad or sandwich to go (already made) and head off to the beach or park.

Products are generally well made and tasty, and somewhat pricey. The staff here all have an attitude of "what do you want?... okay now hand over the money and get out of here". The least friendly small business ever. And they have the nerve to present you with the tip screen when you pay. read more

Time to upgrade to a full five stars. Hands down, this is the best decaf ice coffee in the area. Yes, its pricey, but so worth it. I find myself driving way out of the way to get a coffee here. The food and pastries are all delicious as well. The kale salad and lentil salad make a great lunch and the hummus sandwich is so filling you can split it with someone. I'm quickly turning into a regular. read more

Good selection, great food, very cute! A bit pricey however, since it's take away and not much option for sitting down to eat. But we will continue to enjoy it, and appreciated them being open and welcoming through the CoVid times for really delicious and fresh food, baked goods and many veggies read more

Delicious food and baked goods in a little bakery space geared for carry out. I especially love their brownies and the Mediterranean lentil salad. Beehive Pantry is one of only two places in Warren I'd bother picking up a specialty coffee drink brewed with local RI roaster New Harvest beans. The pricing is reasonable for its high quality. Definitely a nice little stop for lunch, just don't expect table service b/c most people I see coming here pack up food to go or end up eating in their cars bc there aren't any tables inside. Good stuff. read more

Yo girl is a snack. And because she's so scrumptious she needs sustenance. She needs calories to fuel this fancy. Homegirl has been to the beehive numerous times, but on a Saturday afternoon, she knows better. So Homegirl jumped in the blacked out 'cedez and burned some rubber. She arrived at the small storefront ready for some treatz. Yo girl has had a long day. She had been in the hot summers sun for hours. Put some jelly on Homegirl, because she is toast. How did Homegirl become so exhausted? You try treading water with 4 inch wedges and hoop earrings. Homegirl arrived and ordered a medley of pre-made cold sides. Chicken salad, Asian sesame noodles, and a corn pesto dish. Also a gluten free peanut butter cookie. The chicken salad needed something. It was bland, and if only it had cranberries, salt and pepper, homegirl would ring a different tune. The Asian noodles were good. The corn and grape tomato salad was fantastic. It had cubes of bread, crustier than the corners of homegirls eyes. And the gluten free cookie was good too. It was indulgently sweet. Maybe a tad too sweet. Homegirl can not afford a cavity, so she only nibbled the crumbs. Plus she has got to be wedding ready and can't over indulge! Homegirl is not looking for any suiters, however she does get proposed to quite regularly. Yo girl wants to look good for those hidden engagement shoots. Homegirl usually gets them emailed to her even though she has to decline the gentleman. She has developed a little saying: Drop the male, it's no longer a fairytale. Wedding bells won't ring, but Homegirl girl gonna keep the bling. Overall, Homegirl enjoys the Beehive Pantry for a quick meal. They do however run out of things so it's slim pickings by closing times. Yo girl often takes her grub to eat by the water, where the only thing more beautiful than the view is Homegirl herself. Homegirl does sign autographs when in public. She's like a Disney Princess, except THEY take off their wigs and makeup at the end of the day. Homegirl sleeps with it all on. 24/7 she is DID. Next time she visits the Beehive Pantry she hopes the chicken salad has more flavor. But it was good enough for her to frequent again and try something different. read more
