Darling neighborhood bakery with plenty of options for those with a sweet tooth or those looking…read morefor bread options for the week. My visit was during the morning rush so there was a line to order but aside from it allowing me more time to choose my breakfast treats, I was also able to watch the baker pulling out fresh bread from the oven. It's truly a working bakery. The blue and white exterior is very eye catching as you arrive in the area and the warm natural color tones inside the bakery are soothing and elegant. The staff who took my order, as well as the one who made my coffee order, were very friendly and calm, despite having a decent line of eager customers hoping what they wanted wasn't taken by the customers before them. Tight quarters inside so not really a place to sit and savor your selections but they do have seating outside, in a patio area next door. If you purchase loaves of bread, you are able to have it sliced! I'm looking forward to trying the bread next time I'm in town. Definitely add this place to your next visit to Athens!

I worked exclusively with the owner, Jefferson, via phone to design the arrangements. I realized they made cakes. So I ordered a German chocolate cake to the order. I am so happy I did. They delivered all the arrangements and the cake to the restaurant. The flowers were beautiful and the cake was probably the best I have ever eaten. The cake was very moist and the chocolate icing was like eating fudge. I wish I had taken a picture of the cake but I was so busy singing happy birthday before I cut it. I will definitely use Bulldog florist and Careaway cakes again. They were fantastic!

The secret to any great party is a great cake and Bee's Knees Bakery consistently delivers! So…read moremuch so that I felt like I needed to update my review and add pictures. Not only do the cakes look stunning but the flavor and texture of the cakes are absolutely phenomenal. I've been using them for every special occasion and birthday party for me and my daughter for over nine years. I can honestly say I will never go anywhere else. My personal favorite and the flavor I get the most compliments on at all my parties is the vanilla cake it reminds me of angel food cake but more dense giving it the perfect cake texture and flavor. The cake isn't overly sweet so the sweetness of the icing compliments it very well making for the perfect bite every time. I also love the pink champagne cake. It's a gorgeous pink cake with an almost bubbly flavor with the tastiest fluffiest icing. I'm for real obsessed. They also do cookies and cupcakes in an assortment of flavors that you can order or find in their case each day so yummy! The hummingbird, pink champagne, the Italian and the s'mores cupcakes are our favorites and ones we always pick up for a little treat when we are in Athens. The staff is always friendly and accommodating and they are fantastic at what they do! My daughter's birthday was this past week and they made a beautiful pastel vanilla cake that we have been eating literally every chance we get. It's just so good!! I included pictures from my daughter's birthdays over the years. 10 sweet years of beautiful cakes! Enjoy!

The menu is extensive and is made up of various baked goods designed in the UK, France, and Italy (and maybe more). Megan had a chicken salad sandwich that had bacon, some fruit, and was on focaccia. Megan enjoyed it a lot. I had some butternut squash soup and a steak pie. Both were mighty tasty. I had a good laugh when the owner said to be sure to use all the gravy. LOL you dont know me, I will take two gravies! We had a few baked goods to go including a pasty, croissant, and a bear claw. These were good but as with all freshly made baked goods you need to eat soon, don't let it linger! Oh yeah, looking at my photos the reason that we went to FWS in the first place was to pick up some baguettes to make banh mi sandwiches, and those were great.

I dropped in the next morning and was greeted by the owner. His smile and friendly demeanor are a welcome treat. He told me about the selections, how to best enjoy them and which he suggested. I left with more than I planned, but it all looked so good, smelled so good and he was so passionate about his craft that I just wanted to try them all. The chocolate croissant is still my favorite, but the blueberry scone is a close second.
