Decided to stop and grab some coffee before playing a round of golf nearby. Both my matcha latte and my husband's regular latte were good. We also shared a muffin which was fresh and tasty. If I was on the area I'd stop by there again. read more

Came here while visiting from Virginia last month and am still thinking about it. AMAZING coffee. I got a mocha latte and a chocolate croissant, both of which were sooo good. Flaky buttery chocolately croissant, yum. The guy serving the coffee was really fun and friendly too. I spent like two hours there shopping at the book and toy store. Reasonably priced books and a great selection that's easy to browse through. I usually have no interest in toy stores but this one was SO cool. Also has many comfy places to sit and chill, drink coffee, read, etc. The vibe of this place is unmatched. I will def be back when I'm out this way again! read more

A small, artsy coffee shop near Bethany Beach. They offer small eats and both inside and outside seating, although if you choose to sit in their small upstairs area it smells like sitting in someone's attic. I ordered my usual latte and it unfortunately, was ok at best. The milk was way too hot and not appropriately textured for a latte. The result was a little bitter aftertaste. They don't offer real mugs which is a pet peeve of mine so overall, not what I was hoping for. read more

Quite a hidden gem! Where do I start? The quaint bookstore? The vintage atmosphere? The quick service? The friendly faces? All things worthy to mention. But the best part? The tasty coffee of course! I got my usual--iced latte with whole milk. The espresso was bold, blending perfectly with the milk. There was an array of indoor seating options from cozy couches to studious two seaters. They also offered many outdoor seating options. It would be a crime to dismiss the connecting bookstore! We went early morning so the main section of the bookstore was not open, however there was still a decent selection open to early morning coffee go-ers that you could purchase at the café. The eclectic (a word I've seen used countless times to describe this shop) and "homey" atmosphere left me wishing I was a regular at Drifting Grounds. The slight complaint we had was the cleanliness of the bathroom. Although I did not find this down point worth losing one star as our main focus in visiting the café was not to tinkle. All in all I would highly recommend visiting Drifting Grounds whether you're visiting Bethany for a beach trip or just passing through! read more

In every post-apocalyptic scenario there arises an epicenter of what's possible--for me the embodiment of pandemic endurance and transformation is Drifting Grounds. The coffeehouse most know shut down opening on for curbside caffeine service; then it moved and opted for a food truck arrangement which lasted a near interminable amount of time as it slowly rebuilt a Third Place. Today DG has a place without wheels nestled in a unique and brilliant compound shared with artists and the Book Lounge in Millville. On a recent Saturday we arrived, as did a good portion of LSD, sharing space in a pandemic world quaffing delicious drip coffee and my pungent and strong Cortado. And we reveled in the wonderful place away from home and work like we used to... reading books, chatting with neighbors and tourists in a Third Place I'd only wished was closer to my home. read more

What a great coffee shop. Four of us arrived in the morning for coffee on a weekday, huge line. Plus They had mobile orders. They seemed to be pretty efficient at everything they are doing. I would recommend them hanging up their coffee flavor signs somewhere visible when you face the register. The cashier had to tell me what the flavor options were because I wanted to try a new flavor. Definitely recommend. They have moved locations since a previous time, but this one is connected to another family business/bookstore. read more

Ocean View Restaurant

What a surprise gem with solid gluten free options. This homely restaurant is planted square in the…read moremiddle of an unassuming town just outside Bethany beach. Did not expect the genius cocktails and gourmet dishes. This is the real deal hidden in plain sight. They had a gluten free menu that spanned from plain ol home cookin to creative modern plates - blackened salmon w fresh chutney and pesto on roasted heirloom fingerlings. Spot on. The GF deviled eggs with double smoked bacon on a bed of fresh delicate mixed greens were to die for. My daughter had the Caesar and cream of crab which she could not stop about. The waitress was lovely and made sure we were feeling very confident about our orders being GF. She said chef has celiac disease so takes GF very seriously. What a win. We will be returning.

First off, there's no Ocean View, just in case that's important to you…read more The place was cute inside and the staff was nice. Prices were higher than expected, as much as $15 or even more for some dishes. I had eggs florentine and I'd give the place five stars if my eggs were cooked. Gah! Poached eggs are not supposed to be slimy. Just no. Hubs enjoyed his food, so I just took off one point. Please. Cook your eggs. The potatoes rocked.

I always get eggs Benedict but this one was delicious. I also had the coffee and a few espresso martinis. This wasn't the first time we visited and we've had good experiences each time! If you're on the fence, I'd say just try it out for yourself

A bright, open environment with spacious tables and booths makes this a great place for breakfast.

To describe, I ordered the lobster mac and cheese and it was scrumptious. First, the cheese sauce was creamy and cheesy, but not overpowering. Likewise, the lobster was tender and had good flavor. Also, the Ritz breadcrumb topping was great. It added a nice crunch and worked well with the cheese. On the contrary, my only problem with the mac and cheese was that there wasn't enough pasta in it. However, it was still one of the best lobster mac and cheeses I've had. Over the long run, Northeast Seafood Kitchen is a very good seafood restaurant.
