I still tell people about this place. Good GOD the salmon salad was so fresh... I all but hugged the server. It almost goes without saying for *a bakery*, but do not skip dessert here. I'm not a big dessert guy, but it brought life to my weary bones. The cafe vibes were second to none. Bright and charming cafe with tons of seating. Bring your homies. Contemplate life. Though some of the kitchenware displays are a little overwhelming (and may disrupt the flow of traffic), they're loaded with perfect gifts for any foodie. The staff were astoundingly attentive, not to mention helpful when I got stuck between options (a habitual problem of mine I admit), yet never seemed bothered even when I stayed til close. 10/10. read more

A spot on the way to the beach, this busy corner outlet offers hot breakfast and baked goods. I stopped in seeing the option to order a salad for breakfast. I considered some baked goods, but they looked a little indulgent and I wasn't in the mood. While I was happy to have my salad, the portion size was quite weak. The lettuce barely came halfway up the bowl, and it was a very light thing to hold. Even given a vacation spot premium, I just wasn't that satisfied. The quality of ingredients was fine, but I ended up needing more food quickly. For some that want to sit in and eat something more substantial, it may be a worthwhile thing to do. read more

Came here for lunch after a half marathon and the meal really filled me up! Parking was easy in the lot and we were able to easily order at the counter. We then found a table and our food came out in about 10-15 minutes. I ordered the Birria "Taco" Grilled cheese. The size was very big with lots of meat. I really enjoyed the parmesan chips. The inside is cute and emphasizes lots of local businesses. I also ordered the seasonal hot chocolate which I was had a little more flavor. The price was fair, about $20 for lunch. Overall this was a nice meal after the half marathon. read more

Terrific iced coffee. Even had the coffee infused ice cubes adding to the coffee flavor. Only artificial sweetener I saw was Truvia. I'm a Splenda guy. Not sure if I missed it or it's their conscious decision based on the "healthy" vibe of the place. Very large and comfortable seating area with a nice variety of tunes. read more

Delicious Chicken Salad sandwich! Huge chunks of chicken and thick fresh bread. Way better than chicken salad chic and bigger. Very good service. Nice and helpful! read more

Yikes. $6.50 for a 12oz americano. I give up. Not a latte, a coffee. What stage of capitalism is this?

I had some friends from out of town visit and we stopped in for brunch- a variety of food was ordered by everyone- compliments all round.....fresh ingredients, presentation of food and flavors was amazing! I had the Ruben sandwich with an iced coffee and it was ridiculously good! The cafe ambience reminds me of quaint places I have visited in Europe and the team was very attentive and helpful! Spoonfed is a hidden gem in Wrightsville Beach and is just fantastic! read more

We went to a wedding recently catered by Spoon Fed and I have to say they knocked it out of the park! Passed hits were prime rib on crostini with horseradish and arugula, lamb chops with a heavenly Dijonnaise, clam chowder shooters, authentic lobster roll with potato buns, I could go on but... Then they had the main courses- taco bar on one side and a southern one on the other with the most delectably fried chicken with jalapeno honey, mac and cheese and greens. Absolutely no one is going home hungry after an event catered by this place. 10/10 I would definitely recommend!! read more

We dined in as a party of 9. Everyone truly enjoyed their meals. I ordered the waffle for myself along with the egg and cheese biscuit. I am in love with their egg and cheese biscuit. Next time I go I will definitely be getting another one of those. The staff was friendly and attentive to our table. I look forward to trying other menu items at my next visit. read more

I've been here a few times for brunch! Love their Chilaquiles with a fried egg, quiche and coffees!! It's a very hip and cool place with local goods, fresh bakery items, cold salads and so many more delicious goodies along side a full menu! During covid19 they are doing a Private Chef to-go meal! You can check their website for the meal options and call it in the day before! They were super polite on the phone and happily answered all my questions! For $12 a persons, my husband and I got the bacon onion jam meatloaf, roasted veggies and a broccoli apple salad!! The house smelled so good while I reheated the meatloaf and veggies in the oven! I loved the mix of brussel sprouts, carrots, potatoes and beets in a herb sauce! So much attention to detail and very healthy items with great portions! It was so easy to pick up and reheat! Everything had so much flavor and was prepared perfectly to take home! Definitely give this to-go option a try! I can't wait to dine in after this crazy time is over! read more

Coffee was terrible. No choice for medium or light brew. Service was okay nothing great. Food very overpriced. Never again. Two eggs & 4.50 and not cooked as requested. Well I am not concerned as we won't be back. I don't see how a young family makes it. I just wanted to add.sccidentlybput five stars. Big mistake. Should be non if it were possible. Sorry. Would like to edit. Should be no stars. Will not return. read more

A nice little cafe option that has outdoor seating now! They have lots of great breakfast options, coffees and kombucha on tap. We had a group of 6 and luckily we were able to be accommodated outside. I wish gluten-free and vegan options or more clearly marked. I asked the girl at the counter and she was also pretty clueless so I went with the chia seed pudding. Such a great choice! Everything comes in to-go boxes and served outside. The service was great! Would recommend read more

Brunch with friends. Two of us got quiche (sausage and cheese, and feta and spinach) and one got yogurt with granola and berries. We also had lattes and chocolate chip cheesecake bars. There are cool mixers, crackers, jams, etc at the front of the store. The order experience was fine. The quiches were really good, as was the yogurt. The side salads that came with the quiches had a "lemon vinaigrette" that was basically just vinegar and lemon. We weren't fans. The lattes were good- I got the cherry mocha and it was perfect. The cheesecake bars were also good. read more

I noticed as I was writing this review that Spoonfed is closed today which is a shame because even though I just had breakfast there yesterday I am seriously tempted to get in my car and have breakfast again there now. When you go into the restaurant there's a few clipboards with the menu. Take one, peruse what you'd like, them order at the counter. I ordered the toffee pancakes special. I was torn between that and the sausage biscuit but a friend was getting the biscuit (which she was raving about) so I went with the special, figuring I could always order it in the future. Ya'll when my breakfast came out I was like a five year old on Christmas morning. Pancakes, homemade whipped cream, crumbles of toffee, it was something straight out of Willy Wonka. Those pancakes were on point. Fluffy but with some substance they had a bit of texture so it wasn't like eating air. And the toppings? Oh emm gee!! Nothing short of amazing. Plus they have bloody Mary's and mimosas on Sunday! Amazing, just incredible. One more thing- Matt and his wife were incredibly kind to our group and supported us during a local fundraiser I participated in. Good food and good people? Sold. read more

I visited this place for brunch on Sunday with 5 of my friends. It was my first time. I was a little overwhelmed when I first walked in because it wasnt clear exactly what to do. But you basically can snag a table and then go up to order your food at the counter. The food was prompt. I ordered the French toast with lemon curd and it was fabulous. It was so good that it didn't even need the accompanying syrup. I also tasted a friend's quiche which was the best I've ever had. Great food that I would definitely visit again! read more

I really enjoyed our lunch at Spoon-fed Kitchen and Bake Shop. We were over near Lumina Station and wanted something different and I am so glad we decided on this restaurant. They have a really nice selection of baked goods and they even had some Mac and Cheese that was to die for. Our lunch consisted of a Caesar Wrap and chips and then the Chicken Salad sandwich and chips. We also got a blueberry lemonade and an iced vanilla latte which has coffee ice cubes in it which I always love (since it does not water down your beverage!). Really great food and really great customer service. (once specific waitress was so kind to my little one and sat and chatted with us a little). read more

I was a little suspicious. Like a kitten trying to cross a six lane highway. Many a yelp review yields 4+stars and many a time disappointed that my standards and the standards of others seem to be galaxies apart. Not this time. I can wholeheartedly agree that Spoonfed is worthy of as many stars as we can give them. Here... .have all 5 of mine. Why? Warm staff. Outstanding selection of frozen take away meals. Killer selection of cold deli items from crab cakes that look like Martha Stewart made them, to tuna salad that you would be glad to serve at any fancy soiree. And the reason for life itself....baked goods. Pies, cookies, scones...bars, and other delicacies that make me happy I live too far away to visit every day. I think they need to add some seating in the winter time. We once had to leave as there was no seating inside available. And trying to order brunch to take out would have been problematic. The pour over coffee is a bit strong but nice. They use Folks cafe which roasts on the Darth Vader end of the spectrum. I hope they offer a lighter roast for the pour over sometime... Which brings me to another awesome point...... Spoonfed's website boasts an attention to local sourcing of ingredients which makes me love them even more. I really hope they maintain the high quality of ingredients and warm staff. Wilmington surely benefits from the quality and obvious love of craft this place demonstrates. read more

Today I ordered the avocado tartine and a side of bacon. Both were delicious. The tartine itself was very crispy but not overly crispy. The greens and avocado were perfect and were a little spicy. Just a tad. The bacon was some of the best bacon I have ever had. It was cooked perfectly. It came with a side Of greens with no dressing. I was alittle confused about that. The Diet Coke was in a bottle that needed a bottle opener which I didn't have so that was Alittle disappointing. Overall, I loved this meal. read more

Went here to pick up a chicken biscuit and mixed salad only to get through almost the entire salad to find a full dead grasshopper at the end of it. Not what I meant when I said I wanted something fresh and natural. I don't blame the staff because I'm sure they keep a tidy kitchen, but if this is who their produce providers are I don't know how much I want to support it. they never returned my call and i did not get a refund. read more

So glad this new restaurant opened here in Wilmington! Food is beyond yummy and fresh! The manager, Caroline is very hands on both in the front of the house as well as the back of the house of the restaurant. I was curious about an item and she went so far as to offer me a taste. I noticed the number signs which are used to determine where a customer will be sitting in the restaurant features advertising Paw Prints which publishes a small magazine to bring awareness of the hundreds of adoptable pets. Delicious and healthy food combined with personal customer service wrapped in compassion for furry friends is the ideal business model. It made me feel good to support this restaurant and the good they are doing in the community. I wish them many years of success! read more

We are obsessed with Spoonfed! We love their weekend breakfast - the biscuits, the sides, so yummy. Order at the counter and then sit down and they bring out your food. I do think the lunch menu is a bit limited, so I'd like to see more lunch options. read more

Loved this gem! We first visited for a dinner the owners were hosting for a big group of friends. We tried lots of delicious goodness but my faves were the rich beet and cheese crostini, tasty seafood dip and chips, simple perfection lemon pasta with arugula and parmesan, the fresh supper club salad and yummy roast sweet potatoes. Oh and can't forget the incredible brownie and delicious key lime pie with fresh berries! Dinner was so wonderful we came back for brunch the next day. Hands down the best quiche I've ever had and my husband had the sausage egg on fresh biscuit. I also picked up a homemade chocolate chip cookie for later. Love! Love! Love! Keep up the great work team Spoonfed! read more

Came for breakfast. Left impressed. I'm a foodie so I'm picky about food. My wife is vegan so she's extra picky about food. Her chia pudding breakfast was simply superb with balanced flavors, gentle sweetness, fresh blueberries and freshly toasted slivered almonds. Health food? Sure. Great tasting? Hell yes. My eggs, requested over easy, we're perfectly cooked using a steam method. The biscuit that came with it was clearly freshly baked with that stunningly beautiful crispy outside and soft buttery inside. It even came with French raspberry jam which was excellent. Then there was the bacon. I don't know where they're buying it from but it was some of the best bacon I've had in the US. Yes it would be called Canadian bacon but it was a great balance of cooked just right with caramelized crispy edges. Coffee? Excellent. Vibe? Active, fun bright and happy. Come here. Eat. Leave happy. Enough said. read more

Brunch is my favorite and I am so excited to try all new places - first stop, Spoonfed. ERMAWHGOSH. I cannot wait to go back and enjoy breakfast and the lunch menu, or shall I say BRUNCH?!!? I went with a few friends and it was super great. I ordered the special - pancakes with blueberry compote and blueberries inside with a side of scrambled eggs. They got the special omelet and this green goddess sandwich (vegetarian). So, the pancakes - delish. You didn't even need syrup they were so sweet and tasty; there was a huge dollop of whipped cream on the side. Thank god it was whipped cream, I took a huge bite and thought, please don't be butter. BUT, the next time I go, I am definitely getting the green goddess sandwich. Whatever it was called or whatever it is because I had a bite and WOW. The flavors were soooooo delicious, I want it so bad. Also, the staff was super kind. Very attentive and when they forgot the omelet, they gave it to us for free. Friendly and all. I would highly recommend going here at least once! read more
