I had another amazing experience at Hidden Grounds Coffee in Wilmington. I come here every time I…read morevisit thks city, and the atmosphere is unlike any coffee shop I've visited -- the dinosaur-themed decor and cozy outdoor patio make it both fun and relaxing. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the service was quick even though the shop was busy. The coffee itself was outstanding. Their specialty drinks are creative without being over-the-top, and everything tasted fresh and expertly made. The Marlboro Man coffee drink is my favorite! I especially love how much personality the shop has, from the unique menu items to the laid-back backyard seating area. It's easy to see why locals and visitors rave about this place online. Customers consistently praise the coffee quality, fun vibe, and friendly baristas. If you're in Wilmington and want a coffee shop with great drinks, a memorable atmosphere, and genuinely kind people, Hidden Grounds Coffee is absolutely worth visiting. 100% recommended.

Could not decide what I wanted but ultimately got their Nanner (banana pudding drink). It normally comes quite sweet but they were happy to modify it to less sweet. Their lemon cruffin was fluffy and very lemon filled, crunchy sugar coating all around the outside. Also, look out for Wilma the velociraptor! She's quite awesome.

It's a cute quaint coffee shop with great trinkets, stationary, mugs, cards and of course - Coffee. I had the Golden Gal (see photo). It was delightful. The baristas were super helpful and friendly.

Decor is…read moreso pretty and girly, drinks are pretty and good too - and the decor, stationary and shopping are so adorable. They offered custom crepes although I didn't get one because we had breakfast reservations elsewhere. I would have though! I ordered the prettiest drink which was called You're Like Really Pretty. A nod to Mean Girls I assume. It was tasty, I wish I could go back for another. I also wish we had something like this in Charlotte. Can't wait to return on a future visit.

This genuinely might have been the best coffee I've had! I got the red velvet latte, and while it…read morewasn't necessarily red, it tasted like a rich and delicious mocha.

Maven takes a different approach to coffee, skipping the standard heavy syrup you find in most places and instead focusing on carefully crafted pieces of art. I would describe their style as a hybrid between the craftsmanship of fine dining, the flavor blending of craft cocktails, all wrapped up in an artistic display. The people working here are skilled and very friendly and happy to explain their menu My wife had the campfire latte, which was a gentle s'mores flavor with freshly crumbled graham cracker topping in a marshmallow they toasted right in front of you as a top. Most importantly, it was very coffee forward on flavor with very minimal but appropriate use of sweetening flavors. I had the chocolate cherry truffle latte, which was again very coffee forward with very subtle and perfectly balanced flavors. Most interestingly, the drinks were a very fair price, because with this level of artistry in presentation you'd expect it to be expensive. This was a great little stop on vacation, and if I was local I would come more often. They are definitely stepping out of the mold of the traditional mainstream coffee shop, And doing a great job.

The place is wedged at the edge of a neighborhood that backs up to one of the main city streets. I believe I saw about six parking spots total in the gravel parking lot. ZOLA's coffee menu is a unique blend of spiced lattes and especially sourced beans. There's just a couple breakfast bar type food items to choose from. After looking over the menu a few times, a barista stepped out from behind the coffee bar and started talking with me about the menu options. I tried the cumin latte which definitely peaked my mind. I then explored the diverse selection of used and new books in the space. Most of the reading selections were unknown to me, a rare experience. I picked up a journal on women's spirituality. There is something for everyone at ZOLA's.
