Our Story

A Florida family legacy.

Since 1989, Jay Bees has been a staple of the Lake Wales community. What started as a small family dream has grown into a beloved restaurant and lounge where neighbors become friends and every meal is served with a smile.

Stop in for a Keen Burger, stay for a cold drink and the kind of easy conversation that keeps people coming back year after year. Many of our sandwiches are named after the lakes, ranches and small towns that make this corner of Polk County home.

"Thank you for letting our family be part of yours."
