A buzzing local favorite. Stop by during the day to enjoy the patio for a drink or your favorite game on one of the many TVs. Come by later at night for a buzzing 20-30s crowd getting their night started.

The closest thing downtown Wilmington has to a “speakeasy” this beautiful bar is located in the alley in between Port City Java and Front St Brewery. You know they are open only by the elephant sign hanging and lit up in the alley. Very good cocktails!

Goodfellas is the typical last destination for the young crowd. Had a few drinks already? Perfect, this is your spot. Head downstairs for a dance party or enjoy the patio upstairs, either way you’ll be one of many people closing this club down.

This little gem is a local favorite! The place isn’t much to look at and there isn’t much seating, but the tacos and burritos will ABSOLUTELY make up for that.

Quite possibly my favorite downtown restaurant. The vibes, sushi and sake are all top notch at this establishment. Definitely recommend making reservations if you have a group and don’t want to wait. (If you do end up waiting, put your name on the list and grab a drink downstairs at The Husk).
