Absolutely love this little coffee shop. They have so many great regular drinks and their special/seasonal menu is always on point. Cold foam in every flavor you can think.
I’ve loved the Cookie Butter Latte and the Anne Boney

The beach house latte was SO good – perfect mix of espresso flavor and syrup. Not overly sweet, just right, and you can tell they use Maven beans because it has a great taste. The wait was out the door so it took about 30 minutes to get two coffees.

I come here all the time with my son and it’s easily my favorite coffee place in the area. The staff is super friendly and helpful and one of the main reasons I continue to come back. I’ve never had to wait very long for my coffee and it always tastes great. The closest thing I have to a criticism is that sometimes I wish the coffee was a touch hotter, but it’s never been enough of an issue for me to bring it up while I’m there. If I did, I’m sure they’d remake it because they’re terrific that way.
If you want good coffee, come here instead of giving your money to some soulless corporation.

I love Calico! I try a different drink every time and they’re all delicious. Great bakery items to choose from. I find excuses to drive to that side of town so I can get my caffeine fix.

After moving from LA, I’ll be honest I was on the hunt for a coffee shop that felt like home. Calico offers great coffee, genuine vibes, and staff who actually care. From day one, the staff has been nothing short of amazing welcoming, kind, and consistent. They remember faces, orders, and somehow always manage to brighten your day even when you just need caffeine and silence. The coffee? Chef’s kiss. Thoughtfully made, smooth, and clearly crafted by people who take pride in what they do. This place quickly became my go-to, my reset spot.
And to anyone scrolling through reviews: don’t be turned away by the negative ones. This shop is full of heart and genuinely good energy. Yes the wait times can be long, and the line can be out the door on some days, however, that’s what happens when you have the best coffee in town.

Love love love love Calico Coffee. I am not even a coffee drinker & constantly find myself here. Best coffee I’ve ever had – by far. Also, the cutest atmosphere and sweetest employees!

Do you like coffee, pirates, plants, and great vibes?? They are very kind and attentive here. Their coffee is absolutely delicious!! The subtle pirate theme, the plants covering the space, and the lack of “big lights” (my fellow neurodivergents will understand) make the atmosphere superb.
If you are planning to come in and grab coffee to go come any time! If you are coming to find a place to study, get there early as this place gets busy!
This place also does punch cards!

Absolutely love this local coffee spot! ☕ From the moment you walk in, you feel the cozy, welcoming vibe. The coffee is rich, perfectly brewed, and the pastries are fresh and delicious. The staff is so friendly and always makes you feel at home. It’s the kind of place that brightens your day and makes you want to come back again and again. Highly recommend supporting this local gem!

I’ve been here 4x in the last couple weeks and each time I’ve tried a different drink and each one is so good (and I’m the type of person that usually only finds 1-2 drinks I like at each coffee shop and just stick with those 1-2). Most importantly, the espresso flavor is perfect— best in Wilmington! They also have the best ambience. Love all the details. So happy they opened! Highly recommend!!

The best coffee I’ve ever had! I’m glad I don’t live locally because they are pricy but definitely worth it. Creamy delicious ice coffee and my husband like the food they had
