Sleeping Bird Coffee

YUM! This place is amazing. Every food item I’ve gotten here has blown me away. Don’t get me wrong, the drinks are amazing too, but the cookies, bagels, biscuits, blondies…. Oh my god. I didn’t know cookies could be that delicious. And the bagels are 100% the best you will find in Wilmington (they’re from a Philly bagelry). The drink flavors are so fun and unique, and my iced lattes have been made perfectly every time with smooth espresso. Lots of seating here and super friendly staff!

If I lived in DE I would go every day! These folks were kind, patient, and super prompt with both their espresso beverages and food preparation. Their menu is packed with intrigue and lots of intentional planning, making it easy to zero in on the perfect snack or sammie to get you going.

We got the sparrow, dove, and chickadee sandwiches as well as a couple of oat milk lattes and a cappuccino. Everything was prepared perfectly—the best oat milk texture I have had in a long time.

Their space is clean and cute, with plenty of cozy nooks for studying or sharing a sweet moment with a friend. I will be back every time I’m in Wilmington!

Love this place bagels and maple biscuits are the a favorite of mine always fresh and delicious.
Also I enjoy the specialty coffee ☕️
Location is perfect and the staff are always very friendly.
I make it there on a weekly visit and the place is always very welcoming

Traveling from Bucks Co. PA to Southeast VA near 476/95 JCT. Was craving a good breakfast sandwich. Asked Google to find coffee shops. This popped up in a mix of Wawas, DDs, & Starbucks'..... Reviews and pictures looked good and was just a light detour off 95.

What a treat! Coffee was excellent. Barista skills on point. Bagel sandwich was A1! Plus they're using bagels made by a great local company.

Great quality everything and great value considering the quality.

On top of that, I left my winter hat and gloves. Which was not realized until we got home; hours away. Called up and they were willing to mail them to me! True hospitality.

Will definitely stop back every time we make that trip!

A spacious place to hangout. Coffee was good! I wish I would've got the coffee in a cup/mug instead of paper cup (but that's a minor detail). Got the turkey sandwich. Bread wasn't toasted but sandwich was good.

Great coffee shop. Glad to have found it on my way through the area. The avocado toast is very delicious.

Place was nice. Small space. Was full when we were there. They had coffee beans to purchase.

Double shot with absolutely no crema. On top of that, their website shows a wide selection of delicious looking pastries. On a Sunday morning I had a choice of a cookie, brownies and a cinnamon bun. Very disappointed on every level to be honest.

It all starts when you walk through the door. The décor is simple, inviting and warm. The staff is very very nice! They're helpful and they're kind. I wear a uniform and it has my name on it and they notice every single time and always call me by my name. They have a small menu but this enables them to focus on quality instead of quantity, which I like. I have tried a few flavors of coffee there but I suggest the honey cinnamon latte. I have also tried a few of their baked goods and they are always fresh and always flavorful. So if you're looking for a quiet little shop to get an excellent cup of coffee with great service I highly suggest the Sleeping Bird.

Stopped in for a quick sandwich and coffee and was impressed with both. The autumn turkey sandwich was delicious (apples, cheddar on sourdough) and an iced coffee with pumpkin chili flavoring was also delicious. Friendly service and while I didn't bring my kids, they were kid friendly and had books and a play area for them. I will definitely be back.
