    Good service, we ordered smores, a coffee and espresso martini. Everything is done on an app. Warning: Smores were really messy but really delicious. Will be back to indulge again!

    Amazing coffee and pastries by morning and an extravagant and fun cocktail experience through the evening. Right now, the space is in high Christmas decor, so you definitely want to check it out. Plop down by a fire pit, enjoy the lively scene, and sip a tasty beverage. Great for a romantic date or with friends or colleagues. The evening bar runs from the backyard of the Front Street Inn, with loads of martini options, and it's largely an outdoor experience. On Saturday nights be prepared for a likely line.

    Straightforward cocktail bar with great scenery outdoor seating with a fire pit... cocktails taste good they are pretty strong. You order using a QR code that assigned to a table. truly have nothing bad to say about this place other than if you're in the North Carolina area come try it.

    Got one of their special drinks, the pistachio tiramisuiced latte($7). It came out in a few minutes. The drink was sweet with notes of coco and vanilla. The outside patio was very gorgeous to hang out and could accommodate a bunch of people. A very solid coffee shop with good drinks and good vibes. Drink(50%): 7.8 Staff/service(25%): 7.0 Value(25%): 7.0 Overall: 7.4/10

    I wanted to like this place more than I did as they have an outstanding menu. We stumbled upon this place when looking for a cup of coffee. As it was a Saturday after 3pm, they said they could not seat us but we could order to go. So, we did. My friend finished her order first, then I finished mine, then a gentleman in another party finished his. My friend's coffee came out almost immediately. A short time later, so did the gentleman's coffee. I kept waiting. I was eventually asked after about 10 minutes if we were waiting on more coffee. They found my cup of coffee just sitting inside. I'd ordered the butterscotch rosemary coffee with whipped cream and toppings. By the time I got it, the whipped cream was melted, any toppings had sunk, and I couldn't taste much butterscotch or rosemary. I was sorely disappointed that I paid what I did for an anticlimactic cup of coffee.

    One of my favorites if not my favorite espresso bar in downtown Wilmington. It is located in the perfect area of downtown WILMINGTON because there is generally better parking because it's not at the heart of the river. But it's not far enough that you can't just walk down the road and go to the river. The location is perfect. It has its own little parking lot and when there's not enough parking, there's municipal on the street parking, etc. they have a great outdoor area in the back with s'mores stations and outdoor seating. They do events that are fun. Great for group gatherings great for business meetings. Great to just have a cuppa coffee in the morning after you drop the kids at daycare or school And just a hint I've probably done that about eight times now lol they have a variety of drinks you could even make up your own concoctions. I love that in the afternoon it turns into an alcoholic beverage bar in addition to a coffee bar. It's a great place to get friends together or even have happy hour. They have an old school glass window in case sunroom attached to the back clearly this is one of the old-fashioned houses from downtown Wilmington and back in the days which has now been converted. The only thing is the entrance is a little bit tight so if you see a line, please try not to squeeze through the front door to fill up the foyer we live in North Carolina, not Colorado When cold is cold here it's not as cold as up north or to the west lol other than that, the staff is always friendly and kind. I love having the events and I will say I sat at a table with the owner and her husband one night and they were absolutely fun from Long Island represent New York!!! And as a former New Yorker now North Carolina, I enjoy them bringing this business here! It definitely feels like a touch of Home down south! There's not a lot by the way of pastry or sandwiches, etc. but that's fine. This is a beverage bar and so limitations on the foods is great because honestly it's more attention on the beverages lol. For the s'mores bar, you could also do crackers and cheese, which I love because not all of us want to do s'mores And we like savory! Plus, it goes great with the alcohol lol definitely recommend this is a place to hit up if you're in downtown WILMINGTON either visiting or if you live here, I'm actually going to have a business meeting there in two weeks as well as meet a new friend on Tuesday for a cuppa coffee in the morning before work! Thank you to Jamie and her husband and I look forward to many more events and seeing you guys!!

    The Concorde Espresso Bar is located inside the Front Street Inn at 215 S. Front Street in Wilmington, NC. It it the cutest espresso bar that features a travel-inspired atmosphere, reflecting the international flair of the boutique hotel. The space incorporates aviation-themed decor. The espresso bar offers a creative menu with sizes named after airplane classes: Main (12 oz), Business (16 oz), and First (20 oz). Since it was too early for Espresso Martinis I opted for a Caramel Macchiato & a Flaky Croissant. I can't wait until I can visit one evening and try out the Martini Flight and s'mores in the beautifully lit espresso garden. While I was there they were decorating for the holidays so it's about to get real LIT. If visiting at night for martinis it is suggested to make a reservation in order to secure a spot.

    Went here after seeing a ton of reels surrounding their Espresso flight. Oh my goodness, I can't rave on this business enough. Everyone was very polite and welcoming, both the inside and outside were decorated so cute and inviting. We are already planning to come back so we can reserve a table with a fire pit and take advantage of their s'mores offering. Would be a great place to have a friend's meetup or have a date night like us.

    What a lovely place! We found Concorde on social media and knew that we had to go on our most recent trip to Wilmington. I made a reservation weeks in advance as I had heard it can be tough to get in otherwise. It was well worth it as this place is amazing! We went on a fall evening and were greeted by a lovely fire and a large selection of drinks to choose from. We went with espresso martini flights and a s'mores platter. They paired perfectly together! You must try it! I can't wait to come back and try the other delicious sounding drinks on the menu.

    Great place for fun night out with friends and/or family! Great drinks. I LOVE the Gelato!!!!

    Just the most charming little cafe. First time in Wilmington, & we walked to this cafe. The coffee selection was so wonderful (I'm a sucker for house made syrups & speciality drinks). My husband & I tried the latte Fleur which was made with house GROWN rosemary (what?!). So delightful. We also tried the latte Olivia and it was amazing. The seating inside is cozy, and the outside area is so charming! There were fire pits to keep us warm and it was such a nice environment. Truly one of the best cafes I've ever gone too. Only thing that would make it better would be food options!

    Quite possibly the best drink spot I've ever been to. Such a unique experience in a beautiful setting outdoors with firepits, beautiful trees, and beautiful lights overhead. The drinks were so awesome that we had to get a second round from the super personable staff. And the music playlist was unbelievably good (electronic and house music). This place was the ultimately after dark Carolina vibe. This might be the coolest place in Wilmington, if not all of North Carolina.

    We were able to snag a day-of reservation during a trip to Surf City, NC. We wanted to visit…read moreWilmington for an upscale dinner, and Olivero fit the bill. We were guided by other Yelpers' reviews. When booking our reservation, we opted to sit at the kitchen counter, which I recommend if possible. It's quite entertaining to watch the kitchen flow and various dishes be made. To start, we ordered the dates, croquetas, and the salad. All were delicious and light enough that we were still able to enjoy our entrees - agnolotti and the rigatoni. I hadn't read many reviews about the agnolotti but it was the star of the show. The rigatoni is their classic and doesn't disappoint. We already determined that next time, we'll need to try the beignets and possibly the lasagna! There were only 2 of us, so we had to limit our dishes. Service was incredible (attentive and friendly) and the restaurant itself is adorable. I totally understand why this is one of Wilmington's top-rated restaurants!

    Dinner with friends, I normally like this place but Noah got over zealous with the salt and I am…read morethe kind of guy who likes salt but man.... The service is always decent and friendly, the drinks are good not EOD quality but decent, and the Dates as always were a winner. Watching Noah work the Fire is amazing. The manager is pretty good and although I hate zone service they do it pretty good here, not Artisanal (Boone Area) good but better than most. The Restaurant since they re-worked the entrance is actually better at accommodating visitors/guests and it is cozy place to sit and eat your Dinner, We will go back as I am 3 strikes and out guy, Noah could have had some salting issues.

    I've been to the Dram Yard a few times for cocktails at the outdoor bar and have always loved the…read moredrinks and the atmosphere with the fire pits but hadn't eaten dinner until last night. The whole experience was perfect. We had to wait a few minutes for our table to be ready. It was such a minimal wait that I didn't think anything of it. Our waitress came over to our table, apologized, and said they'd be sending out their little gem salad and brussel sprouts. Both appetizers were plenty for four of us. The salad was romaine lettuce with fish roe and had a umami style to it that I really enjoyed. The Brussels were exceptional. I'm a big fan normally and these were by far some of the best I've had. For cocktails I tried the man of war and the ghost town which was complex and amazing. For dinner I tried the fish of the day, which were scallops from Maine with ancient grains and a small green salad. The scallops were rich tasting and succulent. My husband had the burger and said it was really good. The whole dining experience was exceptional. The servers were attentive yet knew how to pace our experience. We never felt rushed or imposed upon or forgotten. With all the restaurant choices in Wilmington, Dram Yard rises to the top.

    Great spot for date night. They say the menu items are meant to share and come out as they're…read moreready, which felt a little awkward when our entree-ish items came out at different times. I had the chicken and dumplings, which was perfect for a chilly evening. Everything that our group ordered was great from the market fish to lamb and burger. I was disappointed there weren't any mocktails on the menu because I wasn't drinking, but the cocktails sounded good. atmosphere is upscale and modern. Looking forward to going back to try more!
