An excellent local coffee shop located about a block and a half from GDH. Formerly, Kaldi's, it is now officially the Beanhive. 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 access so they are a favorite place for studying and doing homework. the Beanhive is kind of Starbucks-esque. 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.
