Wilmington Food Guide

Planning a beach trip? Here are my favorite Wilmington (and Wrightsville Beach) restaurants!

Drift — Great coffee + a delicious (and healthy) breakfast and lunch — I basically live here!
Waterman’s Brewing — The Flat Rock Semi-Tart Blackberry Cider with the Waterman’s Wedge Salad or the Sol Fuego Shrimp are my go-tos.
Boombalatti's — Going out for homemade ice cream is my favorite kind of date night!
Brasserie Du Soleil — If we have something to celebrate this is always my first choice.
Artisano — They have the best pizza in town, and I’m working my way through their gelato menu (so far a scoop of strawberry and a scoop of mascarpone is my favorite combo).
Poe’s Tavern — We often grab supper at Poe’s after a day on the boat!
The Original Salt Works — For an old-fashioned burger, try Salt Works. It’s also a great lunch spot if you want to eat outside under the Live Oaks.
Zeke’s Beans and Bowls — They have the best acai bowls!
Ceviche’s — This Panamanian restaurant has a great atmosphere and a killer margarita!
Dockside — When I want seafood + a view of the water, this is where I go!
Origins — This restaurant just recently opened, so I’ve only been once, but I had to add it to this list! The space is gorgeous and it’s a great option if you’re looking for something a little fancy.
