The New Description[edit]
The Beanhive is a beautiful whimsical world in which many car-less Knox students find a way to escape from Knox. This establishment has saved countless lives and sanities and we don't know who we would be without it. It's a great place to study, hang out, get breakfast or lunch, and meet people from outside the Knox bubble. It has great vibes year-round, and to this day the chai and baked goods are fantastic.
The Old Description[edit]
An excellent local coffee shop located about a block and a half from GDH. Formerly Kaldi's, it is now officially the Beanhive (though familiarly known as "Mary's Living Room"). This is Knox's favorite cafe. It's a great place for many things including drinking coffee, studying, and open mic nights. They host Knox open mics a lot of the time, and have delicious chai. That may not sound like much, but people get there. They also have free wi-fi(with any purchase) access so they are a favorite place for studying and doing homework. The current owner, Mary, has been in charge of the Beanhive since 2013! She has made the place a venue for local and Knox-friendly open mics, literature/poetry readings, and the occasional punk rock show. This is cafe is a gem and a comforting environment. There are many places to sit, magazines, games, and you will usually run into professors grading papers here.
