1st off it's an amazing space still under construction but it's pretty slick. The coffee is delicious I highly recommend the latte.

Finally stopped by the place after moving to the neighborhood a month ago and I’m so glad I did! Perfect place to work or study, plenty of outlets and tables/bars. Great coffee and multiple vegan snack options! Haven’t tried the beer or weekend waffles, but I’ll definitely be back to do so. Good vibes all around.

Love this place! Lots of outdoor seating, and indoors they have a garage they open up when the weather is nice. Very spacious, good coffee, and super friendly staff. This place has become our (College Movers) new office! Highly recommend checking it out, atmosphere is great and the honey cinnamon latte is pretty solid (Get the large, it's got FOUR shots of espresso!). The dirty chai is very dirty, so whatever you're drinking, your bound to get a caffeine buzz

Best coffee spot in Wilmington. With its cute decor, simplistic theme, and relaxed atmosphere, this is a great place to get work done. The staff is incredibly friendly and always greet me with a smile. The food sold at the attached Mess Hall is mouth-watering. There's plenty of options for shaded or sunny seating -- this has become my go-to when I'm trying to get out of my home office! highly recommend trying their honey cinnamon latte!!

First off, I am so happy that Bespoke Coffee is closer to home for me, with this new Bespoke Outpost location. When you first pull in to park, the first thing you notice is the building, itself. It appears to be a military barrack or warehouse storage building on the exterior...but once you cross the entryway door inside, it's "industrial-chic" decor & vibe have you ready to relax & enjoy a cup of Wilmington's best. The interior is smaller (approx. 500 sq. ft) than it's parent store downtown, but make no mistake...they still keep the flavors consistent from one location to the other. BEVERAGE: Iced Vanilla Latte w/ Whole Milk. I love this drink at the downtown location, it quickly became one of my top 2 coffees & the Outpost mimicked it perfectly. Robust flavor from, what appears to be, a darker roast bean, complimented by fresh milk & the right amount of sweetness throughout the entire cup...not just sitting at the bottom. 4.8 STARS!! SERVICE: The young lady working was pleasant, not pushy & handled with effeciency. Although I did not catch her name, she did well. 4.6 STARS!! OVERALL SCORE: Bespoke Outpost is equally as good as my previous reviews on Bespoke Coffee & Dry Goods on Princess St. in downtown Wilmington. The Outpost kept the "Bespoke" brand consistent and excellent, once again. Keep on doing what you do, Bespoke! 4.7 STARS!!
