Yellow Bee Market & Cafe

Update : So I recently tried the Strawberry Creme Bee Puff to go at the YB Cafe because it was new and looked amazing, but do yourself a favor and Skip it. First off, I had to wait 20 minutes for them to make it, which was already annoying . After finally tasting it, I was disappointed. It was literally just whipped cream and not-so-fresh and hard strawberries stuffed into a soft puff, then drizzled with condensed milk. Nowhere near what it was advertised, and honestly, a huge letdown in both taste and value. After all that waiting, I expected something special, but this was below average at best. Definitely not worth it. * * I couldn’t be more excited about the opening of Yellow Bee! This new addition to the neighborhood is exactly what we’ve been needing. Open from 8 AM to 8 PM, it’s perfect for everything from a morning coffee or matcha to a quick lunch or dinner. Walking into Yellow Bee, I was immediately struck by the vibrant and welcoming atmosphere. The store’s bright colors, modern decor, and chill music make for an enjoyable shopping experience. Navigating the wide and well-organized aisles was a breeze, and I found everything I needed without any hassle. The coffee espresso bar is definitely a standout feature. I tried the matcha latte, which was superb. The grab-and-go section offers a variety of quick and nutritious meal options. I had the grilled chicken Banh Mi sandwich, and it was absolutely delicious. The baguette was perfectly crisp yet soft, and the fresh, flavorful ingredients really stood out. I’m looking forward to trying their vegan options next. Yellow Bee’s pricing is very reasonable, making it accessible for everyone. I was also impressed by the extensive grocery selection, including fresh meat, seafood, fruits, and vegetables. It truly is a one-stop shop for all your daily needs.

I just love this store! They have a very good selection of asian snacks, groceries, and day to day items. It’s so convenient to have a market like this in the neighborhood! Also love their food options. Their bagel banh mi is EXCEPTIONAL, so flavorful and fresh. And the fruit teas never disappoint. Very nice that they offer vegetarian options too. The layout of the store is very thought out. And they keep adding new items, every time I go in I get excited to browse around. Oh and they have WiFi and a work station, if you’re looking to get some work done! The staff is also amazing, super friendly and helpful!

Yellow Bee Market is an awesome shop, place to grab a bit, and an overall great addition to the area. The variety of grocery options was very impressive (imported snacks, produce, meats, wine, beer, etc) and I appreciated the coffee and sandwich menu. The food we tried was quite good and overall had a great shopping experience. I would recommend they install a self check out area so that customers who are grocery shopping do not also have to be in the same line as coffee patrons eetc. Definitely will be back!

Beautiful store layout, CLEAN, smells good. And the store smell isn’t affected by the deli station either. Very impressive. Their deli selections are outstanding also, delicious food

Great store in Yesler Terrace neighborhood. Great neighborhood small grocery store. Good thing to bring to the neighborhood. Liquor is available too. American and foreign foods. Great customer service. Bus routes 27 and 60 and Street Car.

I know ive been out the loop for awhile but im back :). I recently found this market that sell amazing bagel banh mi! Didn't know that existed so i came during the morning and got myself a pork bagel banh mi and it did not disappoint. The bagel stayed in piece after each bites. I thought the ingredients would fall all over and it would be messy, that was not the case. The pork was sweet and but nicely balanced by the veggies. I ended up craving more, i do want to try the actual sub for lunch so i will update the review when i do. Aside from the bagel the market is filled with a lot of variety and i would compare it to a mini H mart. Parking can be tricky as with any places in Seattle, i parked across the street at the park and walked up not which wasn't bad i definitely recommend checking this out whether is for a little shopping or some of their delicious bagels/banh mi.

I am so excited to have this market here. The prices and variety are incredible. The sandwich was fantastic as was my latte. This place blew my expectations out of the water compared to any of the other corner stores around.

WOW! SO excited to write this review! Yellowbee just opened today 06/20/24 and it is EXACTLY what the Yesler area needs. I live in the apartment complex where the shop is located and I am SO excited that they just opened! Yellowbee is a deli/compact supermarket that offers a convenient and vibrant shopping experience, offering daily necessities, with a handpicked selection of fresh meat, seafood, fruits, and vegetables, as well as a large selection of beer/wine/spirits! One of the highlights of Yellow Bee is its coffee/espresso bar, where you can indulge in a variety of specialty coffees and beverages, including bubble tea! The sitting area provides a cozy space for friends to hang out, catch up, and enjoy their drinks, creating a sense of community within the store. Not only is Yellow Bee a grab-and-go market, it features a variety of quick and nutritious food choices, with a special focus on Banh Mi, a Vietnamese sandwich known for its delicious flavors and healthy ingredients. 10/10!
