This little sandwich, soup & salad place is TERRIFIC! Delicious recipes that are not run-of-the-mill. Friendly staff, really tasty food, small but attractive area. My mission is to try every menu item. Bakery next door for more dessert items. read more

Great, healthy choices for lunch. The combo meals allow trying two menu items...we loved it!

My cousin and I met there for lunch because it was centrally located for us. I read about it online and it live up to the reviews. The sandwiches were great and it was a good place to sit and catch up. Would definitely go back. read more

The food is excellent! One of my favorite spots in Tarrant County. Only issue is they close way to early at 2pm!!!

I stumbled upon this place while in the area for work. The atmosphere and branding is great, and the staff is super kind (which seems to be rare in most places). I got the Chicken Salad sandwich and it was so delicious! I also grabbed a red velvet cake ball from the bakery and I was not disappointed! I will be going out of my way to come back here. read more

See all

I love The Hive!!! The staff is so nice and food is delicious! I always get the B.L.A.T. and it's so good!!! Definitely recommend.

Very good Sandwich. I am in town for work, and needed a quick lunch that wasn't fast food. Ordered the Italian sandwich and small salad. It was toasted, perfectly vinegary, and not oily. My only issue was the wilted spring mix in the middle. I've never had a hot sandwich with fresh green leaves. Sautéed spinach would make more sense. Strange. Still, tasty! Another reviewer mentioned the sandwich was watery or leaking juices...it's because they use fresh ingredients and it's just a product of these being heated up. They might also use vinegar. For me, it was good. This happens when you heat up fresh ingredients, like pickles and tomato. Go get a subway if you want a dry sandwich. :). read more

This is a great little sandwich shop. The service was great and it has indoor and outdoor seating. The only downside to this place is that the are only open from 11:00am to 2:00pm, hence the name "Daytime Eatery." And the only reason that is a downside is because their food in great! I had a soup and sandwich combo and it was fantastic! I highly recommend it and I will definitely eat here again! read more

Great lunch place! Not a huge menu, but a quality menu... Great sandwiches, excellent soup, specialty iced tea. All in all, very very good!!

I just ordered a B.L.A.T. to go and the jalapeño jelly cream cheese takes that sandwich to another level. I thought I could eat half of the sandwich now and have the other half later but once I took a bite, I couldn't stop. With the pandemic happening right now, they are offering to bring your order to your car at your request. Just call ahead! read more

This place is a must try during lunch if you are in the area! They have a limited menu but the food is off the charts full of flavor!! The Tomato soup is my favorite! Love The Hive!!! read more

Great lunch spot!!! My office is close by so it's easy to walk to. I had the blueberry havarti sandwich. Delicious! I did the half salad/half sandwich. Salad was the fruit & nut. Really good! My only reason for a 4 star is I wish they were open longer...like maybe to 3 or 4. Sometimes I go to lunch at 2 and they close at 2. That's just me though! Overall, great lunch spot in downtown Arlington!! read more

I can't put into words how much I love this place. I have never ever had a bad thing here. The menu is small but exciting with local and fresh flavors. The GOAT is the kind of sandwich you have dreams about and then have to have the next day for lunch. If you are lucky you will be there on a day when they are inventing and trying new Ideas.... and get to sample one! The soups are homemade and make you want to slap your momma they are so good. Don't forget you can pop in next door and get a sweet treat afterwards at Sugar Bee Sweets. Their cake pop is the perfect small treat to end the meal. read more

Amazing service and the food was so good! I got a southwestern soup and grilled cheese and my friend had the chicken salad sandwich. We will define back again! read more

As a foodie who travels for work, this was a great find. First the sandwich and homemade chips where delicious. I had the boot sandwich, everything is fresh and they use whole ingredients nothing processed. read more

Changing my one star review to three star because 1) manager responded very quickly 2) Everyone makes a mistake 3) A one star review is brutal for a restaurant that pretty much only gets great reviews...I'm usually an easy 5 star I was with my 82 year old mother because she had a medical procedure that morning. She was unable to eat or drink since midnight. She has a very sensitive palate and cannot eat anything spicy. She wanted soup so I suggested The Hive which I had been wanting to try. Unfortunately their only 2 soups were Tomato (too acidic for her) and chili (way too spicy ). I offered to go elsewhere but she said she will make do. We did not read all the details in the menu but she saw chicken salad which has always been one of her safe foods. I ordered the Tomato Soup. She took one bite of her sandwich and said that something in it was burning her throat. I went and looked at the menu closer and it said it had a "subtle jalapeño kick." She cannot do any jalapeños. I read the Simple Bee ingredients and they looked fine for her. She is too nice, never complains, but could not eat the sandwich. She took it back to the counter, told them she can't eat it, and asked for just a plain croissant (she was hungry). I mentioned that she could eat The Basic Bee. I was ignored and they gave her a plain croissant. I said out loud that she just paid 9.50 for a piece of bread. I understand that they gave her what she asked for. I could have been more forceful and could have asked them to give her a different sandwich. At $9.50 a sandwich they can afford to lose and replace the occasional sandwich to make a customer happy. We were first time customers and she made an understandable mistake. I sat brooding as I ate my soup and watched her eat her bread (ruined much of my day as I could not stop thinking about it and my review). I finished my review at the table and right as we were about to leave one of the staff visited our table, asked about our food (I always say fine), and offered us a sandwich to take home for later. Either they figured out I was writing an unhappy review or the manager called after I posted it. I refused the sandwich because I was not happy. We went there to try a new place with great reviews and wanted a pleasant lunch experience after a tough morning. Instead she had a $9.50 piece of bread and I ate only ok Tomato Soup. Besides I have food at home and do not eat out to take food home. read more

Wonderful salad and soup. Very clean restaurant. Food was prepared fresh by friendly staff. Afterwards a trip next door to the sweets area! Yummy. Would suggest regular tea in addition to the flavored tea that was available. read more

I ordered delivery and after the comments I guess I expected too much. Don't get me wrong it was good, but not great, for the price especially. read more

Ate here today and just loved this little Hive. Food and soup was fabulous and then went to the bakery for the best chocolate chip cookies I have eaten. Will be back to try another sandwich!! read more

Family friendly! Great spot to meet up with old friends and have a bite to eat! Highly recommend!

I love love this place!! I've had just about every sandwich on the menu, and each and everyone of them is amazing. I don't think I could pick a favorite. The tomato soup is the best I've ever had. I crave it somedays! The cucumber water they have available is a great little refreshing touch. My coworker and I have made this spot our regular. You have to try it! read more

I've been here twice now and both times have been soo good! I take my food to go but the customer service is great and the sandwiches are so fresh. I sub out the chips for the salad because they're salads are really good too! This most recent time I had my dog in the car with me and they even brought out my to go order to the car. So wonderful! read more

Haven't had a such a tasty sandwich in a while. I had the BLAT. Come with enough chips to make you be tired of chewing the crunchy kettle cooked salty delicious chips. They have a sugar cane soda machine. Very very tasty. Over all healthy amount of food for its price. Price wise it's a little expensive for a sandwich it's size but you get complimentary chips with it so it kinda equals out. Came in hungry and left relatively full. I consider it to be a healthy full. Full enough to be satisfied with the money I spent specially for it's taste, but not full enough to feel like a pig. read more

Best lunch spot I've been to in a long time. Perfect portions, unique sandwiches, and good atmosphere. Kind of an off the path location, but will be back whenever I'm in the area. read more

Pretty pricy, but delicious! The chicken salad on a croissant was some of the BEST I've ever had. Wish their hours weren't as limited - only open 11-2 during weekdays. I'll be back when I can make it work in my schedule! read more

The Fruit and Nut Salad is LIFE ALTERING! Every sandwich I have tasted has also been amazing. The Boot Is my current favorite. I have been a long time fan and Sugar Bee Sweets and I am just as impressed by The Hive! read more

My new go-to! Finding fresh salads and homemade soups is no small task. The Hive has a selection of options with house made dressings and sourdough croutons. I love the attention to detail and creativity in their menu. My other half swears "The Boot" is the best sandwich he's ever had. The Hive has a chic and welcoming atmosphere with plenty of shaded patio space. The staff has always been friendly and helpful whether dining in or picking up curbside. Don't leave without loading up at fresh baked treats from Sugar Bee Sweets. read more

Wow. I have never in all my life been so disgusted by how an owner treats her staff... So turned off by the overheard conversation, and the food? Not even close to the quality I enjoyed a month ago. I won't be coming back. read more

Yesterday was the first time we tried the Hive. OMG! The sandwiches were amazing. My daughter had the basic bee (Turkey/Grouda cheese) sandwhich and I had the Boot (Italian) sandwhich both were very delicious and the bread was crunchy not soggy. Then we tried the bakery I had the hummingbird cupcake and my daughter had the champagne strawberry cupcake. The cupcakes were super moist, the best cupcake I ever had. My hummingbird cupcake was like a light spice cake with pecans and topped with lots of cream cheese frosting, it was so good and very delicious. The champagne strawberry cupcake had strawberry jam filling topped with amazing frosting. The Hive is hidden in the heart of Arlington. You have to go there. This will be my favorite spot to meet up with friends or family. Ok I went back the next day and tried their B.L.A.T sandwich made up of BLT plus avocado with jalapeño smear cream cheese it was so delicious one of the best sandwhiches. And of course I had to get their cupcakes. You have to try this place, you'll love it. read more
