- WHO WE ARE -
Pearly Queen is a collective of urban beekeepers whose ambition is to keep and protect bees and help educate the public about these wonderful creatures.
Our range of products reflect just some of the things we can get from bee hives, and by supporting us you can help do your bit for bees and our community of urban bee keepers. The proceeds of what we sell go back to further the bee movement and continue to support the precious bees!
- LONDON HONEY -
London Honey is unique. It's the huge array of plants and flowers, and the diverse nature of our landscape which really makes the honey from our fair city so special.
Each part of London even has its own distinct flavour and taste, and this is why we make sure we have the location on our honey - that and it shows where our amazing urban bee keepers are! From the light floral Hackney, to the deep molasses of Enfield or the nutty hue of Dulwich, each hive will produce its own individual taste for you to enjoy.
All of our honey is natural, and not blended. It is exactly how the bees have made it - we don't add, treat or mix anything to it as it is delicious enough as it is. It will contain traces of naturally occurring good bacteria and pollen - with this mix found no where else on the planet!
- OUR HONEY -
All of our honey is natural & raw. It is not blended. It is exactly how the bees have made it - we don't add, treat or mix anything to it as it is delicious enough as it
Contact us if you are interested in getting some amazing honey!
We have a number of different varieties of honey from all over our city - each one different from the next, but each just as delicious.
Enfield - hints of chocolate with a syrup and toffee taste
Dulwich - aromas of sherry with flavours of dates and fig
Balham - warm and rich with a herbal, nutty flavour
Walthamstow - light citrus notes with a caramel flavour
Hackney - Light sunflower front notes with rounded hints of apricot
Harrow - Clean and fresh flavour with a subtle taste of cucumber and watermelon
Finsbury Park - Delicate hints of rosewater and a subtle citrus undertone
- OUR STOCKISTS -
As all of our honey is only harvested with the bees health our priority, we only harvest once a year and therefore stock levels in our regular stockists may vary.

- MEET THE BEES -
Here at Pearly Queen, we are not just about selling honey, we also want to help people learn and understand how amazing our flying friends are.
Throughout the summer, we run Bee Experiences, where the public can learn all about how a hive works, how bees communicate and get up close and personal with the bees themselves.
Our Bee Experiences make fantastic gifts, either as a voucher or combined with one of our gift boxes for an all round bee fan.
It's a great way to spend a few hours and is suitable for anyone keen on bees! If you are interested in attending the next one, send us a message!
Our Bee Keeper Experiences 2023 Dates:

As well as being able to meet our bees, we run other events through the year.
Our screening to the award winning 'Queen of the Sun' documentary (97% on RottenTomatoes.com) with an exclusive Q&A session with one of the film makers, Sarita Seigel as well as the Pearly Queen beekeepers was a great success.
There was also bee related food and drink - you will be able to try the amazing Pearly Queen Honey Pale ale, made with London honey.
