Bring your enthusiasm, customer service excellence and enjoy a fun & welcoming work environment at the Queen Bee as a Lead Barista!

The Queen Bee provides a unique experience, serving delicious sweet and savory crumpets and specialty coffee! We are looking for a coffee enthusiast to join our exceptional team!

The Queen Bee is dedicated to all strong, resourceful mothers and nurturing women. Aegis Living's owner Dwayne Clark started the Queen Bee in 2014. His mother, Colleen Clark was the Queen Bee in his family, and created the Queen Bee in her memory. Colleen was a single mother of British roots who provided for her family as a hard-working line cook. Her skills as a mother mirrored her skills in the kitchen. Colleen kneaded into her son the self confidence that he could do anything, sifted that together with a generosity of spirit, tempered that with a sense of humor, and added a dash of flamboyance to spice up life.

Whether your taste buds crave savory or sweet, Queen Bee offers traditional English crumpets (also called a griddle cake) in a new way with locally sourced products and produce in tasty combinations along with a cup of Middle Fork coffee or espresso.
