I can totally see why this place has such high reviews. The server/bartender was nice and quick to serve us. There's a great sound system and he was spinning some vinyl records while we drank. The overall vibe was chill and really pleasant. We only tried a flight of four of the meads, and they were not bad, even a tad above average I reckon with some fruity options, but the price was $22 for the 16-18oz of mead. We didn't see till about half-way through drinking the flight that there is a $2 charge for EACH mead added to the $14 flight price. That's our own fault really, as we just didn't see it, nor did we ask before ordering. Whomp. It looked like pricing for stuff you could take out the door was super cheap though (like $12 for four cans of mead). So not sure what's with the flight pricing, but if you're in the area, this place is certainly worth a visit.

I can't say enough about Bee Well. From the moment you set foot in the door, you're greeted with a warm atmosphere and friendly owner. The mead and cider offerings are extensive and of the eight that I sampled I can honestly say I didn't have a bad one in the bunch. The decor and music offerings matched perfectly with the drinks and the entire vibe of the bar. Co-owner Jeremy, was super friendly and a wonderful conversationalist who offered what turned out to be some amazing travel recommendations for Traverse City and the nearby area. This is one establishment that you HAVE to experience!!

We stopped in here before dinner! The Mead was okay, liked the Cider better! Loved the old school retro vibe in here. The bartender was super sweet!

The cider tasting was great! Our favorite was the Harrison. Definitely need to get another jug next time we are in the area!

We always make it a point to stop in for a glass or three plus something to take home whenever we're in Bellaire. Sometimes we even make a special trip up just to enjoy the magic that is Bee Well! The first time we stopped in the owner was behind the bar and was extremely helpful and friendly. They have a large vinyl collection that they spin behind the bar and I loved the idea so much I implemented a vinyl night at the brewery I was managing at the time, which led to me accumulating my own vinyl collection that continues to grow. The meads and cysers are my favorite, but they also have a large selection of ciders that are all made with locally sourced ingredients. Every person we've interacted with has been super friendly and knowledgeable, and we've always enjoyed our time here. Highly recommend!!!!
