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!

Cool spot with some really good ciders. Homey, warm feel with a music vibe - played on LPs behind the bar. The Roots were spinning while we were in there. Fav cider was the Carmen Sandiego, crisp and refreshing. Service was great.

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

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!!
