Welcome to Sweet Bee's

Artisan pastries and locally-sourced breakfast & lunch fare, crafted fresh daily in small batches.

Featuring seasonal menus that celebrate regional flavors, paired with locally roasted coffees and carefully selected teas.

Our Story

Sweet Bee's Sunrise Eats was born from our passion for creating a warm, welcoming space where community comes first. Joseph and Kelly Barnstorf envisioned a place that embodies the Danish concept of hygge — that feeling of cozy contentment and well-being.

Every morning before sunrise, we're in our kitchen crafting small batches of pastries, breads, and seasonal specialties. We believe in the power of local partnerships, working closely with nearby farmers, beekeepers, and coffee roasters to bring you the freshest, most flavorful ingredients our region has to offer.

More than just a bakery, Sweet Bee's is a gathering place where neighbors become friends, where every cup of coffee comes with a warm smile, and where the simple pleasure of breaking bread together creates lasting connections.
