i came here at 5 to get dinner and realised it said they should be open by 530pm for dinner online so then i waited around with my young family starving and came back on time for dinner service. then there was no sign they were opening i called the shop and they rang out. so i realised mayb they dont do dinner service. no signs to say otherwise and i missed out trying this place while i was in town and went to brunos instead. i was super disappointed and would have not be so upset if they had of changed your google opening hours and put a sign up in the window. idk if i will be back again. plus menu was super super pricey!! its a 1 star from me. edit your social media has a picture of dinner menu. so i didnt see you werent open for dinners as i go off google as a the local guide i am. dont worry i have editted the google opening hours. you may need to see if they are correct now!? from my experience and travels your prices are definitely at...

Last week I was looking for a venue for a Dinner on Sunday evening in Lightning Ridge. With 20 people in town for my husbands farewell on Monday. The Bowls Club weren't interested suggested we just order at the counter . A friend suggested Busy Bee, even though they are not open Sunday night Steve & Emily & staff gave us a night to remember, the meal was first class & the customer service could not be faulted. Good to see 2 young people who will go that extra mile. They also catered for the wake the next day. Needless to say while travelling on Tuesday I received a message from the bowls club asking to speak to them about my query about a...

The Busy Bee Cafe is a nice country cafe, it’s clean, welcoming and well set out. This cafe is set up for tourists especially tourists who have money to spend. The food is nice and you get a good serve, but don’t expect to get much change out of $40 if you want a burger, coffee, cake and maybe a cold drink. Even without the cold drink you are going to need your $40.

It’s nice to stop once maybe twice but if you are in town for an extended time, buy your food from the supermarket and make it yourself or go over to the newsagent and get a coffee. Better still have a look around town for others...

Visited this lovely place for the third time already. Liked the decoration and theme of this place but food is very average even though it looks very nice. Both dishes lacked seasoning and burger had no sauce whatsoever. Food was plated on very small dishes and it was hard to eat without spilling any food on your clothes or table. Tacos vere the best part - tasty but also very messy to eat. Overall a decent place with a lovely theme but a bit pricy underseasoned food.

So impressed with the lovely team from Busy Bee Cafe. I messaged and then ordered a Sweet box for a friend's Birthday on Monday morning and it arrived within 20 minutes to their house! I think it was a bit less in time, incredibly quick! So quick to reply when I messaged and extremely helpful. Awesome sweet box for a friend's Birthday. Highly recommend this lovely cafe 🥰 Thank you so much for your help, it was perfect in every way 👏👌
