The Bee Hive Tea Room is located in the heart of downtown Salt Lake City in the historic Clift Building, on the corner of 3rd South and Main Street. Decorated with an eclectic mix of second-hand furniture, the Beehive gives an atmosphere of having "stepped back in time" when tearooms in cities like New York and San Francisco were bohemian hangouts frequented by artists and writers. 
 
At the Beehive we have over 35 loose-leaf teas served English style in teapots, as well as delicious David Rio Chai, French Press Coffees from Rimini, and hot chocolate, Italian sodas, and tea smoothies. Drop in for some of our homemade English scones, or order from our light-lunch menu of daily soup, sandwiches, salads, and specials. The traditional "Afternoon Tea" service is also available every day beginning at 2:00. We prepare Afternoon Tea according to our reservations, therefore, we require reservations at least one day in advance. The Afternoon Tea  is served in the traditional style, with finger sandwiches, scones & jam, sweets, and a choice of tea, American hot chocolate, or French Press coffee.

We have recently added a small selection of beer to our menu, with extended hours on Friday and Saturday evenings.

Planning a party?

We have two different rooms (the Willow Room or the Study)  that can be scheduled for a shower, birthday party, or small gathering,  depending on your number of guests. Afternoon Tea is served for all party reservations.. Please call ahead for reservations and availability. All parties must be paid for in advance. (See "Hosting a Party at the Tea Room" for details).

 

We have a small gift area where we carry an assortment of teapots and gift items, and any of our loose teas may be purchased by the ounce.
 
Free wireless internet access is provided through XMISSION.

 

While you're enjoying the atmosphere at the Beehive, be sure to check out the art of our current "Artist in Residence," Bob Moss. Borrowing images and themes from Utah culture and history, Bob creates unique art pieces using a combination of woodburning, photo, and paint techniques. CD's of his banjo song stylings are also available.
