Busy Bee Cafe

About this business

The Busy Bee is a hometown favorite for no-nonsense, down-home cooking. The locals outnumber tourists, a telling indicator of the Busy Bee's style. Red faux-leather booths line one wall, opposed by an old-time diner-style counter with red false-leather topped stools. No fancy New Southern pretenses here, just bona fide Dixie standbys like fried chicken, oxtails, smothered pork chops, fresh fried corn, greens, and candied yams. The marriage of soul food and Southern tradition is a happy one, and it comes pretty cheap, too.

The food was AMAZING and definitely worth the wait! I had the fried chicken, macaroni & cheese, and key lime cake and my husband had the half chicken, baked beans, rice, peach cobbler, and we both had sweet tea. Everything was delicious!!! I will visit every time I go to Atlanta!
