Sleepy Bee is open Monday-Friday from 7 a.m. Known for using healthy, locally sourced, farm-to-table food, and our Specialty Pancakes, Savory Omelettes, and Delicious Seasonal Sandwiches, with amazing local coffee, bee pollen smoothies, Chai Lattes to pair. Hutton and Gross plan to offer catering services and host annual bee-themed fundraising dinners to do their part for bee conservation and awareness. Sleepy Bee boasts unique bee-inspired kiln-formed glass light fixtures and local artwork, including custom tiles in the dining room and restrooms that feature vegetables that are fertilized by hardworking bees. The restaurant showcases bee-centric art made by artisans from Brazee Street Studios of Glass and C-Link Local. Some of the restaurant’s signature dishes include “Killer Bee” cookies, gluten-free Bee Cakes and the Queen City Bee breakfast, which features locally made goetta. The menu, created by chef Frances Kroner, also caters to the health-conscious eaters with the Buff Bee lineup and offers creative, “real” food for kids. Sleepy Bee serves breakfast, lunch and brunch with a focus on local, organic, and hormone-free produce, meat and dairy products. Hutton and Gross wanted to get involved, and to them, a restaurant seemed like the best way. The idea for Sleepy Bee came from the recent dramatic decline in the honeybee population. John Hutton and Sandra Gross, owners of Oakley’s blue manatee children’s bookstore and decafé and Brazee Street Studios, also own the café. Sourcing from farms and suppliers nearby, we have created a delicious, wholesome and satisfying menu, served in inspired spaces, surrounded by original, local art and friendly people. We honor and emulate the bees - our muses - and their role in the wellbeing of diverse, local ecosystems.
Oakley’s newest restaurant, Sleepy Bee Café, opened its doors the week of December 16 at 3098 Madison Road. Sleepy Bee was founded in 2013 by a doctor, an artist, and a chef.
