Welcome to The Bees Knees — Cape May’s Worst Kept Secret
Can you find us? Tucked inside the iconic Marquis De Lafayette Hotel right on the beach, Bees Knees Kitchen & Speakeasy Bar is the hidden gem everyone in Cape May is talking about.
We’re not just a bar — we’re a full culinary experience. Join us seasonally for breakfast, lunch, and dinner featuring bold flavors, exotic dishes, and creative small plates designed to savor. By night, our speakeasy comes alive with unique handcrafted cocktails, local spirits, and an intimate, cozy atmosphere.
Voted a perfect hidden little place that’s not so little, we offer daily live music, specials, and events just steps from the sand at 501 Beach Avenue. Whether you’re craving a beachfront breakfast, a craft cocktail after a day on the boardwalk, or a late-night bite with friends, Bees Knees is your escape.
