Located in the underbelly of the Cyclorama Building in the South End, The Beehive has the look and feel of a spacious artist’s studio. The former boiler room, with its rough brick walls, comes alive nightly with striking decorative murals and live entertainment from local musicians.
The “starving artist” menu offers a collage of rustic, artisanal fare from Europe, the Mediterranean and America. Behind the bar, an all-star roster of talented bartenders pours some of the city’s most sippable cocktails.

Raised in Glen Falls, New York, Chef Rebecca Newell spent much of her youth traveling with her family to Old Quebec City, Paris, Italy, and Holland along with several other interesting places. By experiencing these different cuisines and cultures, Newell was exposed to what she now credits as an important part of developing her own unique style of cooking.
Newell attended the University of Maine in Orono on a swimming scholarship and later graduated with a degree in English. She then attended New England Culinary Institute to broaden her food knowledge. After culinary school, Newell moved to Naples, Florida and worked at Bistro 821 and Quail Creek Country Club. From there, she moved back to New England and trailed Kevin and Jill Crawely at Coriander Bistro and then Stephen Sherman at Union Bar and Grille. From Union Bar and Grille, Newell was promoted to Chef at Aquitaine Bis; and in October 2007 accepted the position as Executive Chef at Boston's The Beehive.
With a go-hard-or-go-home mentality, Newell strives to please all her guests. For every need, allergy, whim or quirky dietary restriction that any of her guests may present, she always tries to make her diners happy so they will want to come back again and again. By providing a dining experience that always runs smoothly "like a dance", Newell wants her patrons to receive the best meal possible.
When not in the kitchen, Newell loves to visit her home on Lake George, New York, explore Boston, go swimming, spend time with friends, and try new restaurants.
