About The Wilmington Coffee Passport

We’re Will and Ellen, a couple of coffee lovers who believe a great cup can do more than wake you up - it can connect you to a place and to each other. Although our orders couldn’t be more different (I’m happiest with a bold espresso while Ellen loves a signature latte), we share a passion for discovering the perfect “third place.” On weekend mornings you’ll often find us huddled over card and board games in a cozy cafe corner, savoring new roasts and new friendships. Whether you’re here to kickstart your day, support local businesses, or simply explore Wilmington with fresh eyes, this passport is your invitation to sip, play, and connect.

What began as our own quest to dive deeper into Wilmington’s vibrant coffee scene soon became a community mission. The Wilmington Coffee Passport is our way of highlighting those hidden gems - handpicked for their unique atmosphere, craft-focused brews, and welcoming spirit - with fellow enthusiasts. With each stamp you earn, you’re not just unlocking rewards, but joining a growing family of coffee explorers who celebrate the stories, people, and moments behind every cup.
