I’ve just discovered this cafe, and now anytime I drive up island I plan to make a pit stop!
They are a very clean and cheerful atmosphere, friendly staff and very yummy menu! I appreciate how welcoming the staff are.
Thank you for being “the bees knees!”
I ordered a catered breakfast from the Bee's Knees Cafe and picked it up from the new location. Having only been to the original location before, I was excited to see what they had in store for their 3rd street spot. It went above and beyond my expectations- the ambiance was lovely, the staff were helpful and kind, and the food and drinks were high quality, as usual. It's definitely worth a visit!
Wow! What a fantastic place! Atmosphere is perfect. Service is beyond perfect. The food (I had the peanut yam soup and chocolate torte with a London Fog) is superb!! I will definitely be going back and also highly recommending Bees Knees to everyone.
One word………. Delightful.
The atmosphere is an eclectic mix of furniture, relaxing music and amazing customer service. It is so very clean, smells delicious and tastes it too! My mouth is watering as I sit here waiting for my portobello breakfast wrap.
I truly love going to the bee's knees. Their coffee has been consistently brewed to perfection year after year. For me, there is nothing better than the A'sh soup. The blend of veggies, beans, lentils and chickpeas, loaded with herbs and spices is both delicious and nutritious. Hands down my favourite soup in Nanaimo and I highly recommend it to any vegan / plant based eater looking for a high quality meal at a fair price. 5 stars.
I order catering/lunches for education I support around both Alberta and BC and I have to say The Bee's Knee's café is the best services I have had to date. Not only is the food phenomenal but their communication is quick, efficient and always professional , they always try to accommodate even with tight deadlines and provide clear professional invoices and billing (which if you need to expense meals at all is AMAZING, especially when ordering for virtual sessions like I do quite often). I will never use another restaurant when in Naniamo and if they had The Bee's Knees everywhere I would use it everywhere I went!
PS The café itself is beautiful, staff friendly, and honestly 10/10 all round.
I have eaten at many cafes around Vancouver island and especially Nanaimo. I would easily say the food and deserts here are made with the most intention / best ingredients and you can tell. I’m glad they’re doing well in there new space also. Good work 🐝‘s Knees 👍
