Our story

From humble beginnings

to a dream with a pool.

Tipsy Bee was conceived between two friends and a bottle of wine back in 2018.

What started as a dream quickly became an inside joke. One day, some day, a guy with a bar would convince the girl with a bakery to dive headfirst into the world of hospitality.

Fast forward to 2021. After many twists of fate, those two friends fell in love and, in the midst of a global pandemic, decided to finally bring Tipsy Bee to life. He brought over two decades of experience in the service industry and a passion for cocktail experimentation (along with a questionable sense of humour for cocktail names). I brought the words: the wit, the warmth, and the instinct for building a brand and design that felt bold, playful, and unmistakably ours.

Together, we imagined a space where bold spirits met bold storytelling, where every label had a wink and every sip told a story. Tipsy Bee became our creative playground: part bar, part kitchen, part studio, all heart.

In February 2025, the idea of The Hive was born. We poured our energy into creating a space that reflects everything we love about Tipsy Bee: thoughtful design, impeccable service, and a sense of fun that is unique to our personalities.

Over the years, we've learned that while we adore crafting cocktails, curating menus, and obsessing over every design detail, what we truly love is hospitality. The kind that feels personal, familiar and of course, a little bit cheeky. The kind that leaves your smile lingering more than usual.

Welcome to the sanctuary we built upon the sand.

Love,

Pavel & Rosh
