"Came in for a quick lunch. I love the atmosphere and the way they use the bee theme. Jessica was our server and she did a fantastic job. Very friendly and I loved getting the bees stickers. Very fun. I got the shrimp and grits and it was very delicious. Wish we had time for desert and rink because they looked very good. On the high price for things but everything was good quality. I would come back."

"Great place. Unsure about the parking. If you park across the street it will cost you $25 😡. Food is very pricey. It taste ok. I wouldn't say it was jaw dropping the best but it was good. There is an service fee that will be added to your bill so keep that in mind. Get one salad and split it with someone or get the half salad. $18 for greens and a few fruit, yeah not worth that, maybe $12. Piano player was a nice touch, he can't hold a tune or a beat but he can play a piano 🤣. Yes you can make reservations and i would suggest that, but they do take walk-ins too."

"If you’re looking for a unique dining experience and atmosphere this is the place. We had a great lunch experience, made reservations right at opening time. Service was exceptional. Must try the pork belly lettuce cups that are out of this world. I’m not a pork belly fan and they were fantastic. Also the dish and chips were incredible. Really enjoyed our dining experience."

Nightlife in Colorado Springs
Remnants of a 19th-century English pub were discovered in a warehouse in New York City in the 1950s and moved to the Broadmoor site where the original mahogany bar, wood carvings, mirrors, and tin ceilings still define the Golden Bee's charm. The old-fashioned bar features a piano player leading sing-alongs. Watch out for the bees—as part of a long-standing tradition, they flick bee stickers into the audience during the show.
