The Beehive Pantry - Bristol

Great baked goods, coffee, and light lunch/dinner items. Don't miss their restaurant on Franklin!

We also bought some freshly made flax bread, which they sliced for us on the spot. Wow! It was incredible! While I'm not a frequent bread eater, this one was exceptional. Its texture, softness, and flavor were all spot on. It’s perfect for toasting or making sandwiches. I highly recommend both the cupcake and the bread! My only disappointment came when I tried to order the bread online, as it wasn’t available like the other baked goods. I called to have one set aside just in case they sold out on a busy Saturday, but the person who answered the phone refused my request. She stated there was a long line and that it was first come, first served. I was taken aback and disheartened by this response. Fortunately, there was still a loaf available when we arrived later. I’ve rarely encountered a business that would turn down such a reasonable request from a customer. I would have gladly paid for it over the phone if that was the concern. So, that was a downside to the customer service. However, once we got there, the service was fine. The atmosphere was busy yet cozy and laid-back, featuring two small round tables with two chairs each outside for dining.

The Beehive catered our brunch for 25-30 people. I have gotten so many compliments about the food. We had quiches, sandwiches, stromboli, calzones, muffins, ginger scones and more. All our guests were so impressed. Emily was so responsive and easy to work with. The delivery person was on time and so professional. I can't say enough good things about our experience.

We had a fantastic experience at this restaurant! The gluten-free peanut butter cookie was a hit—it was delicious for both of us. The turkey club sandwich featured the best bacon and was perfectly pressed in a panini press, all served on fresh bread, which made it incredibly satisfying. We also took home a box of four different types of brownies to share with some old friends, and everyone loved them. We couldn’t stop nibbling! Although we didn’t try the coffee, Craig, who recommended this place, swears by it as his top choice. There’s no indoor seating, just a few small tables outside. We really enjoyed our visit! Dietary options available: gluten-free.

Love this place! The food and customer service is always 100%. Get the grilled cheese it’s amazing and the coffee is the best I’ve ever had!
