Whether you are passing through Knoxville or happen to live there, you will want to try out the Honeybee Coffee Shop in Farragut.

It is conveniently located on Kingston Pike – but the sign doesn’t stand out very well so look carefully or you may miss it.

Do not be concerned about the lack of appeal when you first view it – the exterior looks like a warehouse! But take one step inside and you will have a different picture. The wall of windows gives the coffee shop plenty of light. The bar is in the center of the main room and it is surrounded by small tables.

There are two more rooms off the main room. One has some comfortable chairs and couches and the other is big enough to host a meeting in. This means there can be many customers in Honeybee without it feeling crowded. And you are likely to be there with quite a few other people as it is definitely popular!

The servers are friendly and helpful. The menu consists not just of coffee, but also tea and beer. We have enjoyed their cappuccino, regular latte, honey lavender latte, brown sugar iced latte and IPA – and all of them were excellent! There is also a small selection of baked goods and yogurts available if you are feeling peckish. We didn’t eat anything so I can’t comment on how good they are.

Honeybee opens at 7am on weekdays and 8am on the weekends which means you can stop by for breakfast. It stays open until 9 or 10pm (closes at 7pm on Sundays though) so also a great place to drop in for evening coffee. The variety of seating options makes it a great venue for people wanting to chat, or for those wanting to work.

Honeybee does have a second location in South Knoxville. Be sure to try out one of them when you are next in the area!
