Busy place, but the wait wasn't long. The server was friendly and efficient. The food was standard breakfast fare. The location is great, eat and shop all the great shops on Main Street. There is limited parking behind restaurant and nearby lot across the street.

My waitress Kimberly was an absolute amazing and made the whole experience worthwhile, she gave me excellent recommendations for a milkshake, appetizer, and main course. Highly recommend the Jägerschnitzel after Kimberly suggested that for me, as well as the rocky road shake. Kimberly was very attentive, made me feel so welcomed and at home, with speedy and efficient service. Will definitely be coming back time and time again for the amazing food and absolutely amazing hospitality Kimberly gave me, what a rockstar.

Cool spot. Food was mediocre and server was not very friendly which did not fit vibe unfortunately.

Good food, great looking dinner with that 50s and 60s vibe. Service is hit or missed. Shakes are pretty decent and the Tuna melt was good and nachos are the bomb. Burgers are great and well cooked. Would recommend for the vibe and food. Just be cautious about the server you'll be getting

Love Busy Bee. I always come here. I just wish Main St would open the street.

It’s always a great experience when we stop by to grab a bite! The aesthetics are always top notch with a table top jukebox at your fingertips. The variety of food selection is amazing whether you’re looking for a good old fashioned burger or traditional dinner. Lily is always a great server who provides exceptional customer service with a smile. A fave place in downtown Ventura!
