This quaint white shop is beside the town park across from Ocean Isle Creamery. My husband and I…read morecame in for the first time Monday around 1 PM and the shop was filled with people! We had to wait about 10-15 mins for our bowls but they were well worth it. It gave a good impression considering they're newer and this busy! My husband got the 8 oz Carolina bowl (Ube sorbet with blueberries, banana, granola and honey on top) and I got the 16 oz Witches Rock (mango sorbet, granola, blueberries, pineapple, cocoa nibs, and honey) with matcha sorbet as well. For anyone who is hesitant to try new/different things, it is essentially a smoothie-granola bowl. The added toppings give the sorbet/smoothie extra texture, taste and nutrients. We were both pleasantly surprised and really enjoyed our bowls! Aside from that they were not cheap, coming out to be about $10 each but everything was fresh and delicious so we will definitely be back again.

A must visit when in NMB! We had found Shaka-Laka Bowls before taking our family vacation to NMB &…read morebookmarked it as a must visit! It wasn't until day 5 of our vacation that we were able to go & to our surprise - we'd driven by it every day going to Cherry Grove beach! It's truly a hidden gem! My husband and I are avid Açaí bowl fans & when I say this was the best we've ever had - I truly mean it! I would absolutely order their signature Shaka bowl again (and ask for extra PB & Nutella!). My advice is to get there RIGHT when they open! We did and we were so glad. The place really filled up! My only "con" is there's not any drinks - or much right nearby. So if you're a coffee person, bring your own! Do yourself a favor & check them out!

My family lives on the island so I've been coming to Drift for years. It's a bit pricey, but you…read morecan tell they use high quality ingredients and whoever curated the menu put a lot of time into it. The avocado toast, the veggie breakfast burrito, the coffee cake, the smoothies, and the iced black amber are my go to's and they never miss. The service is quick, even though I know they get crazy busy during the summer. As someone who understands service/cafe biz, I will always give leniency to workers who are busting it during high volume seasons. The people who don't understand that a wait will be expected when you have one good coffee shop on an island that hosts thousands of people every summer are dense. Be kinder to your service workers, people. The most recent time I visited Drift, I was excited to try the Acai bowl. After I ordered, I was told that unfortunately they were out of Acai. They refunded my money and I ordered a smoothie instead. I was ready to pay for my smoothie when the employee told me the smoothie was on the house since they were out of Acai. Great customer service. I've been visiting Ocean Isle since there were rinky-dink water slides in operation across from what is now Drift. It's been wonderful to see a successful, quality coffee shop on the island.

We chose Drift based on Yelp reviews and the menu choices available…read more It's a little coffe shop with a limited, but thoughtful, menu. The coffee was a good, bold brew. Mr. And I both ordered the market bowl. Quinoa, sweet potatoes, avocado, tomato, and a spring mix w a fried egg on top. It was beautiful! Then we bit into it. The sweet potato was barely on the brink of being frozen. The Quinoa was also cold...not just room temperature, but ice-cold! Avocado was way too cold as well. So, you can imagine what this did to the beautifully cooked egg... yep - turned it cold in a heartbeat. Really off-putting to bit into. Mr. went back inside and asked if they had a microwave to heat it up and the 'workers' just said that was they way it was supposed to be. Mr. tossed the entire thing in the trash and simply said "well, it's disgusting". You would think there would be a simple offer to heat it up, or some kind of remedy for the situation. They didn't give a crap. I'm pretty sure they flipped us the bird on the way out. Nice.

Next day I went back for the same in a regular size. Some reviews mentioned it was not sweet. The açaí itself is not but the original has honey on top plus the sweetness of the fruit is enough. The fruit they use for toppings is fresh and the granola is crunchy and delicious. I also like that they don't nickel and dime you for adding toppings. They also give a generous portion of toppings. I generally have to pay for extra granola but that was not necessary. Service was friendly and patient. The first day it took a minute for me to decide. Second day I got there right when they were closing, well technically it was roped off already but it wasn't quite 5:50 so I was able to order. They are actually inside the mall.

First thing I noticed was the giant evil eye pendant hanging on the wall facing the customers. Message received: behave yourselves and be kind... the café is watching. Honestly, I respect the energy. You order at the counter, which keeps things simple and relaxed. My husband ordered the ahi tuna poke bowl, and I went with the Green Goddess salad with tofu. My salad was excellent. It had kale, carrots, onions, chickpeas, tofu, and avocado, and everything tasted fresh and well balanced. The tofu was actually flavorful (which tofu lovers know is not always guaranteed in the wild). It felt healthy but still satisfying. Chris really liked his poke bowl too and cleaned the whole thing up, which is always a good sign. The café itself is super cute and cozy, the kind of place you can imagine popping into regularly for lunch or a quick healthy meal. After a slightly disappointing dinner elsewhere the night before, this place felt like the universe saying, "Here, have some redemption food." We'll definitely be back. And we'll be extra nice... because that evil eye is clearly keeping watch.
