Don't let the line fool you--they move quickly, and while you wait, you can soak in the charm of their beautiful backyard oasis. My go-to order is the Salty Dino, a perfect blend of salted caramel and vanilla that never disappoints. If you're looking for something a little more fun, the Dino Campfire comes topped with a toasted marshmallow and feels like a cozy treat in a cup. And whatever you do, don't leave without a pastry. Their homemade Pop-Tarts are absolutely elite and worth every bite. Between the incredible coffee, delicious baked goods, and fun merchandise to take home, Hidden Grounds is the kind of spot that keeps you coming back every time you're in Wilmington.

Order, go out back, and wait for your name to be called. Lots of Dino's and seats available, including swinging chairs. Lots of fun merch options from tees to hats and stickers. Marlboro man- half sweet and iced- very good. Brown Sugar- Shaken espressso with brown sugar and cinnamon- made mine with oatmilk. It overly sweet and can still taste the coffee. 2 Minty Matchas (mint chocolate chip ice cream taste) 1 strawberry- strawberry shortcake taste They offered some food options- mostly pastries and a few cookies. No down size, wish there were other options for eating, but main focus here is the coffee and they do it well.

When we arrived around 11 a.m. on a weekday, it was very quiet, which created a peaceful atmosphere perfect for hanging out with friends or reading a book. If I lived in the area, I would definitely visit more often. The ambiance feels warm and welcoming, inviting you to relax and unwind. They also have a lovely selection of knickknacks for sale, including books, crafts, and paintings, which add to its charming character. Overall, what a wonderful little coffee shop =) definitely a hidden gem worth checking out! Great service!

Avocado and egg x 3: Lots of avocado, egg, tomato jam, soft brioche- melt in your mouth delicious. Bodega (ham and cheese on brioche with caramelized onions): savory and a good combo per my husband. To go: Banana bread with berries and whipped to go- my daughter thought the bread tasted a bit burnt/after taste- but fresh berries.

First and last time visiting. Management needs to address service and accessibility…read more I was really hoping for a good experience for our first visit, but it was a letdown from start to finish. The Parking/Greeting: The outside hostess had zero flexibility or empathy when we asked about handicap parking. She flatly told us no, and said the closer spaces were for overnight guests only. We had to drop our guest off and find parking a block away. The Food/Drinks: The espresso martinis were very good. However, do not order the "s'mores for four." The portion is not enough for four people, the marshmallows are too large to heat efficiently, and the ratios are completely off. Plus, the kit only included 3 sticks and 2 hand wipes for a party of 4. The Service: Our server, vanished after our initial order went through the app. He never returned to check on us, and we had to ask other servers for basic assistance. Between the lack of accessibility accommodation and the ghost town service, it was not a pleasant evening.
