I came in around 2pm on a Tuesday, but their kitchen had closed, so I just ordered an iced mocha and a vanilla loaf. Both were great! I will definitely come back another time--earlier in the day--to try one of their breakfast sandwiches, which all sounded good! The two attendants were lovely, and the service was very quick! The seating area was also adorable! So many cute and fun pieces of merchandise! I'll have to take a closer look next time I come in! read more

Food options were unique and delicious. Definitely recommend the seasonal drinks. 1 bathroom but it didn't get too crowded. Ambiance is a small business, popular cafe place. Lots of take out orders. read more

It's small and parking is a bit iffy. Coffee was pretty good and sandwiches were ok. My family liked it. I was not a fan. The service was just ok. The worst part is the people it drew in. And they can't control that. Place is cute enough. Just not a fan. read more

What a nice cafe!!! (and I'm not just saying that because my pet bunny's name is Scout too haha) Immediately upon entering, you're greeted by the inviting, warm atmosphere. So much natural light and cute yet serene decor. The staff was super friendly as well. We ordered iced vanilla lattes and breakfast sandwiches. Everything was super tasty and made for a perfect breakfast before our full day of exploring Wilmington. Truly a great spot that the locals of Wilmington are lucky to have! read more

I am surprised I have not reviewed this place yet seeing as I come here almost everyday! The coffee is delicious, I love their seasonal cherry blossom latte. The coffee itself has a good balance, no burnt taste at the end. They always have fun flavors and baked goods. The lemon lavender pastry is my favorite and the halloumi sandwich is a must try. It is a bit small but they have plenty of outdoor seating. The service is always prompt and polite. I highly recommend this coffee shop to my fellow coffee lovers. read more

My partner and I both ordered the Sprout breakfast sandwich - mine on sourdough, his on GF bread with a white mocha latte and iced americano. They were super careful handling the GF bread to not cross-contaminate. Sandwich was DELICIOUS. The hot sauce was the perfect balance to the sandwich and not too spicey. Plenty of outdoor seating. Super cute spot with little trinkets for sale. Highly recommend! read more

Came with some friends on a lil Delaware coffee tour we planned. We got the flight they were offering, all the drinks were absolutely delicious. I enjoyed the pairing they chose with the biscotti that came with the flight. We were really well taken care of and the vibe was very comfortable. The baristas were all so kind and kept the place very tidy even with how busy they were! Will definitely be back to try more food as I'm seeing they have a bunch of good food reviews. Definitely worth the stop. read more

Cute little coffee shop. We grabbed a Caramel SF almond Latte. And a Chai. They had these little sesame seeds and Chocolate bars. Which were both GF and DF. We were in town visiting all the museums in town. Service isn't quick due to how busy that they are. But the drinks were worth it. We will return next trip read more

We're a little obsessed with Scout Café. Every time we're in Wilmington, my husband goes every single morning for his Hummu-licious Toast and latte -- it's basically his happy place. I love switching things up and haven't hit a bad choice yet. My favorites: the Deli Turkey sandwich (so good), the Avo Toast -- always with an extra egg -- and for drinks, I bounce between their smooth cold brew and the cozy, maple-y Lumberjack. The vibe is just as good as the food. The staff is genuinely friendly and welcoming, and the back seating area is bright, cozy, and perfect for hanging out or just enjoying a slow morning. It's the kind of place you end up coming back to again and again -- easy, welcoming, and consistently delicious. read more

Charming little cafe. Parking was a bit challenging (street) but the cafe itself and the atmosphere were both excellent. My vanilla latte with oat milk was fantastic. One of the best I've had in a while. Very cute spot, will definitely return! read more

What a little Jen in Delaware! I picked my sister up from the train station and we wanted someplace to stop and get a quick breakfast sandwich before work. Man oh man did we find the right place! Bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich on rye, and my sister got a bacon, egg and cheese on a croissant. Funny enough, of course I didn't manage to snap a picture of either come, but we ate them quickly. we grabbed a cappuccino to go, as well as an almond croissant. Both were fantastic. We were saying this is a great place if you need somewhere quiet study, or just hang out. Fantastic ambience. We will definitely be back. read more

Loved the aesthetic of this adorable cafe not far from Brandywine park. Had the hummulicious sandwich on sourdough and a cafe latte. I appreciated how you can choose your bread. There is a delightful outdoor seating area. read more

Damn, I love the Lemon Pound cake here. Taste just like the way my grandmothers would make them. Great pastry place in the city. Lots of different pastries on the menu. Nothing is expensive either. I will be back. read more

A cute cafe on the corner of a busy highway, perfect for coffee, pastries, and sandwiches for breakfast and lunch. They have a lot of seating, both an indoor space and outdoor space. Their drinks are better than most places in the area - I grabbed their seasonal Ube Latte which was very beautiful. read more

Best-priced coffee around! I always get cafe au laits. They have fun new flavors every season. My fall favorite was rose pistachio, my winter favorite was ginger cardamom, and now my spring favorite is honey ube. The larges are big, priced so well, and the ambiance in here is great. My favorite coffee shop in Wilmington. read more

Quick Update: -1) it seems like they finally scrubbed off some of the black mold. If so, then thank you! :-) -2) They hired a new barista, who we believe is named "Lexi". While she's still new & a little inexperienced, she truly seems like a very nice, warm person (& not faking it like Scout's usual baristas, who seem to use the cafe as their own catty, hang out place when Nick isn't present that day). Also, the short blonde girl with glasses (who usually works in the kitchen) is also nice. -3) Still solid drinks, but nothing flashy In short, Scout Cafe is a cozy, pleasant neighborhood coffee shop - just go on off hours (or sit outside), & when the nicer baristas are working. read more

Finally was able to make my way to Scout after relocating from Wilmington. I will def be back! The coffee was so good and so frothy! Service was super friendly and the mix of people was inviting. I hope to be back soon and check out the outdoor space. Great spot. read more

I have wanted to go to Scout Cafe ever since they opened. I'm not sure what took me so long. But it won't take me so long to go back! This little place is so incredibly charming. The atmosphere is so carefully curated. I would have loved to have stayed and enjoyed my breakfast while reading my book, but I chose to arrive after First Saturday Mass... prime Saturday breakfast/brunch time. The cafe was absolutely packed, both inside and out. We're in the middle of a very hot summer, so I decided to take my order to go. But I can't wait to go back another time to be able to stay and enjoy my time there. The employees are absolutely fantastic. They are so friendly and kind. Each one called me by name once I ordered. The sweet employee who took my order gave me a really meaningful compliment without even realizing it would be meaningful to me. I was very touched. I ordered the iced caramel latte with almond milk and strawberry toast. Both were so lovingly prepared. They take their time to make each item with care, and it shows. Both my latte and toast were absolutely delicious. I would highly recommend Scout Cafe. I can't wait to go back! read more

Everything was delicious and tasted homemade! We ordered the Mrs. Van Buren and split it between 2 people. It came with chips and was the perfect size. Tasted fresh and loved the toppings on it. We also got the lemon pound cake and double chocolate cupcake which were also amazing. I ordered the lumberjack latte as well which was a maple latte and came with a delicious cookie on top as well. Overall this was a great lunch spot and I also love the outdoor garden seating area. read more

Lovely exterior. Cozy and airy interior. I stopped in later in the day for a quick bite and was greeted immediately upon entering which is always nice. I settled on the hummu-licious sandwich: hummus, tomatoes, cucumbers, red onion, falafel and everything bagel seasoning. I also noticed a theme that most of the sandwiches have sprouts in them.. just an fyi, if you don't like them I'm sure they can always be opted out. The sandwich was soooo yummy ! I was blown away at first bite. Everything was really bright. I would've loved more hummus since the name is in the title, also towards the end the falafel was a tad salty but that could've been my palate. They also don't seem to have other bevs besides coffee/tea and since it was lunch time I wish they had other options like a fridge with bottled options or a selection of curated non caffeinated drinks. Great little eatery on a nice day to sit outside or inside with a good book. read more

Tiny local spot that feels homey and welcoming. Food and coffees have been amazing during multiple visits. It's the type of place you want to spend a rainy morning or afternoon in with a craft coffee and delicious pastry with a good friend, get cozy and lost in conversation. read more

Cute coffee shop located in Wilmington. This new coffee shop is a welcome addition to the area. The inside is warm and inviting. I was greated immediately as I walked in. I can see this place filling up especially on the weekends. I ordered a hot chocolate and the strawberry toast. The strawberry toast was delicious! Definitely a place worth checking out. read more

I agree with everyone that talks about what a lovely neighborhood coffee shop this is. At first, I preferred the food to the coffee, but I've become more and more of a fan of their coffee over time. I do wish they had a few more cushioned chairs to sit on, and will probably mention this the next time I'm in. The owner is a real mensch, and I feel like the other employees are generally super sweet as well. read more

Coffee was great and the pastry was delicious. It is cozy and ideal for a get together with friends for coffee, pastries and finger food. The business is one of its kind in this beautiful historic neighborhood. An ideal place with a relaxed atmosphere to meet for conversations, sips and pastries. Customer service was excellent. Check it out! read more

This place is super cute, has great service and the iced tea was good, but the food is awful. Everything in the display case looked dried out and old and I ordered the Van Buren sandwich and it was truly terrible. The chicken was that pressed, microwave "chicken breast" that has a spongy, wet texture. I ate some of the bread it came on (also dried out) but I couldn't eat more than a bite of the chicken. Between the food & parking I wouldn't come back, especially when Sleeping Bird is just right around the corner. read more

What a breathe of fresh air. Friendly owner, pleasant location and décor and yummy breakfast. (tasty without being greasy or over filled with spices and sauces). Wish the owner much success on this brave venture - wish it was a little closer to I could walk as parking is not the best fun, but maybe next time we will ride our bicycles here! read more

Scout is such a gem of a cafe. Not only do they sell awesome coffee and tea beverages, they also have fresh pastries and fun stickers. There is a host of other adorable items as well. Every time I visit Scout Cafe, the service is simply heart-warming. A fun thing they did this past summer was the Matcha Tea Flight. There were four different tea drinks with varying matcha strengths. And the matcha was excellent in every one of them. With selective food items (I love the turkey deli sandwich and other stuff), the menu is delicious. Scout Cafe is a wonderful experience. read more

This is very close to me so I am bummed it's not great. I've had a cappuccino (not made correctly, milk just overheated with no foam), avocado toast, chocolate croissant, and tea. The tea is really basic Bigelow tea. Also had a spinach and feta hand pie. Bleh. Gave it a couple tries but will try my best not to go back. They do have a cute outdoor area behind the cafe though which is cute. Service is sufficient. read more

Okay Wilmington GO OFF. This spot is so freaking cute and definitely busy. I stopped in on a Sunday and we didn't have to wait for a seat but people were in and out all morning (for the hour I was there). It's super cute and trendy inside and I was blown away by their bites options. The toast did not disappoint. My coffee was fantastic and served in a glass cup which is just bonus points! read more

This adorable new coffee shop is the perfect addition to this little neighborhood! I love that it's walkable for so many people nearby; in the time we were there, we saw parents arriving with their children on scooters and elderly couples taking a stroll over. For those who need to drive, there's plenty of street parking around the cafe. We visited on the Monday morning that happened to be MLK Day and arrived in time to snag the last two bar seats by the window --- the small collection of tables were packed! Our lattes were delicious, and my breakfast sandwich was excellent with slightly sweet Maplewood Bacon, egg, and Havarti Cheese. I'm very much looking forward to going back to try their lunch menu, especially for some of the Mediterranean options! read more

I'm not sure what took me so long to try Scout as it's delightful! Solid cold brew and yummy avo toast. Varied food menu to suit all palates and the friendliest service. Indoor seating for around 20 and strong wi-fi. Highly recommended. read more
