    Very cute shop with cool nic nacs, gifts, art. Really neat place to stop by and take a look. They also serve breakfast burritos. Great service, excellent vibe. If you're just wanting coffee, this isn't my favorite place for that.

    Love this cute little shop in down Surf City! Service is family friendly, lots of coffee flavors to choose from and the coffee is excellent! They have some baked goods too, regular and gluten free, but we didn't try. They have really nice jewelry and handmade trinkets for sale, just not much for seating inside. Will definitely be back!

    The surf city coffee is combined with a mini art gallery. Beautiful art and stuff was wonderful. We arrived and looked at the menu, we got four large coffees for around 25 bucks. The service was super fast. The coffee was amazing. Definitely visit back here on my stay.

    Great coffee and WONDERFUL service. They helped recommend drinks to my siblings and myself. My mom had a white peach tea, I had a decaf latte, and my sisters had iced coffees and an iced matcha. All were so delicious. We looked at the fun art while we were there too. I really liked the gluten free options.

    This is the place. Fast, cheap and always good. Not like others where they over charge and try to make you buy every little thing possible.

I had looked up the business and reviews before we came and was lured in by the flavor list and great feedback. I'd give this place 5 stars if they actually let customers sample the ice cream before you purchase the scoops/cups/cones. This is the first place I've encountered that doesn't allow you to try samples, and it might be that they used to allow it but because people abused the system they quit doing it. Either way, it's a frustrating result. My ice cream was great and the employee was nice, but if samples were allowed and if there was any indoor seating so you could enjoy the AC I'd have given 5 stars without a second thought.

We got caught in the rain so when we walked in we were cold. I got an Americana which they make with 2 Espresso shots. It was strong and fabulous. Then I got 2 scoops of icecream because I couldn't decide... Fat Elvis and Exhausted Parent. This icecream is so freaking creamy and you can taste all the ingredients if says is in the flavor. Best icecream I've had in a while. They also.have a little shop with a few Turkish lamps and lots of things with the evil eye on it. I learned today it translates to evil wye, but it wards off evil. Learned something new! The folks in there were great. Friendly and super helpful. Definitely willbe back!

    Since moving back to NC in September bestie and I have been geocaching and dining our way around…read morecoastal NC and having a blast. We wanted to start our new year off with a bang so, January 1 found us here on our 1st stop to pick up a cache. I was quite surprised to find the Cafe open and even more surprised to meet the new owners! We talked at length about their new café and about geocaching and how we were glad to find a cache at a local business. It was a very cold and blustery morning so when we found our way in from the cold I had the most delicious hot cocoa I have ever had in my life. It was made with whole milk, whipped cream and even had a smattering of chopped peppermint as a topper. Bestie had herself a coffee that she also said was delicious. Because it was cold we didn't have any of the ice cream offerings but I am a gelato aficionado and told them we will most definitely be back in the spring/summer months. If you find your way down to Surf City, you'll be doing your taste buds a favor by stopping in for your preferred beverage or pastry. They even have protein items to dine on! I didn't get any pics of the interior or my cocoa but bestie did and hopefully she'll post a review soon too. Thank you for the wonderful conversation and even more so for the best hot cocoa in my 60 years! It warmed both my body and soul.

    Bestie and I stopped here to snag a geocache on New Years Day and were greeted in the parking lot…read moreby the new owners wondering what we were up to and welcomed lol. So after a lesson in geocaching we of course had to check out this little cafe and we were pleasantly surprised! First off the new owners were super friendly and welcoming, and an absolute joy to chit chat with on a cold winters day. The shop was adorable, with comfy seating and even a fireplace! The hot mocha coconut latte was the perfect drink for a cold day and bestie said her hot cocoa was divine, probably the best she'd ever had. I even had an adorable heart on my latte! Next time I need to snag some of the protein bites in the case to go with my latte. We will definitely be back the next time we are in the neighborhood!

I was in Wilmington when I tried out my first and wanted to find a closer location which brought me to Tiki Turtle's Ice Creams and Mocktails. Right away I was greeted by the staff and they walked me through ALL the different types to choose from. You could do coffee, milk based, and even lemonade (and this may not be news to anyone but it was to me!) I told her I had tried a fruity one and wanted to branch out a little and she suggested if I like coffee to try one of those bad boys. I got a vanilla coffee with honey bursting balls and it was VERY good. Once I ordered and was waiting, I looked around the place and before I knew it, she was handing me my drink! The location is hidden back in a shopping complex, but is not too hard to find and overall this was a great experience. I 100% will be returning and trying more Boba (I am thinking a Lemonade next time).
