The coffee is amazing. Best coffee in Wilmington so far, and we have tried many spots. Staff are…read morefriendly and helpful, with genuine smiles and fast service. I enjoyed the owl latte art for my flat white. We grabbed some Ethiopian Yirgacheffe beans for our pour overs at home later. I love the shipping container aesthetic in the cargo district, with the open air vibe. Inside spots you can sit with air con for those hot days.

I looked at other people's reviews before visiting and saw the very pale matchas, but there were so…read moremany reviews that said it was good that I went anyway. The matcha is terrible. I got a matcha latte with whole milk and it tasted like sweetened milk. They up charge for oat and almond milk. My boyfriend got the banana pudding latte and didn't taste anything like banana? just a lot of cinnamon. The coffee itself was okay. Neither of us finished our drinks, we poured them down the sink.

Such a cute coffee shop with a huge heart and mission! I am a sucker for supporting places that…read moretruly make a difference and this place does. They support the community, putting their resources back into those in need. The coffee was fresh, fun seasonal flavors, and the staff was incredibly friendly. Immediately upon entering Harriet and Colin greeted us with big smiles. They answered our questions and took the time to talk with us while making our coffees. They were so darn friendly it was refreshing. The location is cute with a fun brick exterior and open concept interior with seats and space to connect or work.

I noticed the coffee shop driving through the neighborhood. I wasn't sure it was actually big…read moreinside until I actually went in. They have an outdoor patio in the back which has lighting for the evening. There are two entrances one is on 16th and one is in the parking lot. Upon entering the facility, there was a smell of water residue, which kind of turned me off at first I won't lie. Walking in you can see they have a huge grinder with sacks of coffee beans, there essentially grinding their own coffee beans to then roast and create drinks. I found that to be a huge plus. You don't see that often. There are hallways with seating as well as a communal space that is shared with a new juice beverage bar, which opened up next door. I think the coffee Roastery may actually be new as well. Other than the scent inside, I felt like it was big spacious and clean. Seems to be a little hidden gem in an area with an expected to be! There are bathrooms within the hallways, not near the eating areas which is always a plus. They're also seems to be a meeting room that they're building which would be really cool if you are a work from home person and looking for a quiet place to have a conference call or maybe get the team out of the office to cook grab a cup of coffee and a snack. It has a slide or tour for privacy. Other than that, the staff wasn't really friendly unfortunately. They were talking amongst themselves. Generally quiet little music playing overhead. People that were customers were nice but they seem to mostly be working independently. So it wasn't too loud maybe a nice place to plug-in to email, etc. during the workday. I ordered an iced vanilla latte. Coffee taste good. Overall, I didn't eat any of the food, but it was general bakery items like bagels and muffins. I'm not sure who they were provisioned with. I'll try it again in the future just to see if the experience is a little better but like I said, I think between the staff not really communicating or socializing with consumer and the scent that was throughout the facility. I think those were the two things that kind of turned me off a little bit. I'll be back though and give it a second try.

This spot is very nicely decorated and has a great indie vibe! The staff was really friendly and…read morehelpful with questions I had too. Parking a bit crazy but I guess that's the norm here. I initially swung by to satiate my matcha craving, but it wasn't that great. It doesn't have much flavor so I added my own matcha when I went home. My friend said their coffee was good but nothing crazy. I would come back to try some of their food if I was in the area, they have so many great reviews so swing by if you're in town!

Last weekend I explored this coffee shop bookstore, basically an urban legend concept in most…read morecities these days. The place is wedged at the edge of a neighborhood that backs up to one of the main city streets. I believe I saw about six parking spots total in the gravel parking lot. ZOLA's coffee menu is a unique blend of spiced lattes and especially sourced beans. There's just a couple breakfast bar type food items to choose from. After looking over the menu a few times, a barista stepped out from behind the coffee bar and started talking with me about the menu options. I tried the cumin latte which definitely peaked my mind. I then explored the diverse selection of used and new books in the space. Most of the reading selections were unknown to me, a rare experience. I picked up a journal on women's spirituality. There is something for everyone at ZOLA's.
