“An adorable little shop that you must experience if you live in Athens! Their bakery selection has plenty of the “classics” as well as unique fun flavors that you won’t be able to get anywhere else in town (Thai tea cupcakes, red bean croissants, kimchi scones). Their cakes are on another level as well! And I’m always surprised at how low my total is (they’ve got great prices). Bonus: they normally have a few gluten free options!Vegetarian options: Most of the pastries are sweet rather than savory. So by default, most are vegetarianDietary restrictions: Gluten free and vegetarian options!Parking: Free parking on either side of the building“

“Starting off, the food was very good. I had a breakfast burrito with added sausage and it was killer. The portions were also pretty large which was good. We also had the pumpkin muffin which was also very good. The service was good as well, we had to wait a little bit because she was on the phone but other than that she was very nice and even help us change an order we needed. The overall interior was very cute, a converted house to the restaurant. Had a great experience, only downside was the price. For two people we spent about 40 dollars, which is honestly fine for what we got.“

“Such a staple small businesses in Athens! Every Saturday they do slices of pizza bianca and my favorite are the slices with Romano and basil. The bread is super fresh and I actually was actually not too heavy and doughy. I only wish the ends weren't as crisp.“

“I am getting ready to order my 5th birthday cake from Bee's Knees and decided to go on-line to look at what others have ordered to get ideas. I noticed that on Yelp they had less than a five star review and decided to investigate. I was surprised at what I found....2 didn't like their phone etiquette, 1 received a sample from next door "okay, one man from CT gave 1 star because they didn't serve coffee and one said something about the taste of the cake being a little dry but loved the icing! Seriously, this is why you give a 1 or 2 star review to a small business!?! First, they are really busy at lunch with their sandwiches, bakery items, preparing for catering and baking cakes and cupcakes!!! I find them to be direct and to the point when they answer the phone but not rude. It's lunch and this isn't Publix or Kroger, it is a small, independent business. Give them a little understanding. Be happy they answer the phone in these times! I'm glad to have a human and not please select a number or leave a message. To the man that gave one star for not having coffee....seriously!? Well go to Starbucks, enjoy their service and whatever you can find worth eating. Does that really qualify a one star review??? All I am saying is think before you leave one star. Give some grace....at least sometimes. Oh and one woman raved about the cupcakes but didn't like ONE of their flavors (she gave 2 stars)!!!! My experience has been wonderful. My husband absolutely LOVES their cakes as does everyone we have celebrated with. They are most accommodating in helping with a budget, short time in creating a masterpiece, helping decide on decorations, size and flavors. I'm always overjoyed with my cakes. I am going to post a picture of the last cake I ordered. It was perfect and tasted delicious!“

“Amazinggggg. We usually come here for coffees but the chocolates are great as well. I highly recommend a caramel latte. The flavor of the coffee itself is incredible but paired with their house made caramel just takes it over the top. You won’t find a better caramel latte in Athens.“

“the bundt cakes and bundtini cupcakes were DIVINE and everyone at our wedding had nothing but compliments to give for this company. they were fluffy, tasty, and not dry at all. the only problem I had was that they forgot the only important cake: the bride and grooms cake ??‍♀️. thankfully, our wedding planner got right to fixing that and they came back to deliver our cake free of charge.“
