As a tradie constantly working in different spots, I’m always on the lookout for a solid place to grab a bite. Around Dulwich Hill Station, there are three cafe options, and Busy Bee Cafe holds its own just as well as the other two. What you’ll find here is good cafe food done well, and great service . The Hangover Burger was spot on, and their fresh juices are the perfect way to wash it down. Will I be back? Absolutely.

cozy cafe with excellent coffee and greatest food that we could find in Dulwich Hill, all wholeheartedly made by Michael, Lily and the fellow staff. I had their newly invented Lemongrass Chicken Rice Bowl at lunchtime today and it was beyond expectations, well seasoned chicken thighs with top quality vegs and rice. Definitely recommend this dish and this cafe

I had an amazing experience at Busy Bees! I ordered the pandan pancakes and truffle burger, and both dishes were absolutely delicious. The pandan pancakes were perfectly fluffy. The truffle burgers was juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The ambiance of the cafe is cozy, and the service was friendly and attentive. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great meal! Will definitely be back soon.

Absolutely delicious food. Probably the best smoked salmon and smashed avo on toast I've ever had. The matcha latte is also delicious and a must try!!! The atmosphere is absolutely amazing, so inviting and peaceful. They have a beautiful outdoor garden that's surrounded by flowers which they use to garnish their food with such delicate precision. The staff are absolutely lovely as well, so inviting and accommodating and were so understanding about dietary requirements and changes we wanted to make to our orders. The food and drink is presented like a true work of art here. If I could rate this 100 stars I absolutely would. Thank you so much for your incredible service and delicious food and drink and hospitality. It was incredible! Also best Caramel milkshake I've ever had!
