The BEST coffee experience I’ve ever had, globally. These guys are precise and you can tell it’s a level above the rest and yet it feels like you’re a student of their art in there. Love it!
Maven coffee was an unexpected highlight of our trip to Wilmington. I’ve only had a pour over made with such care and precision from Seattle or Portland third wave shops. The beans are roasted perfectly to enhance and allow one of the most exceptional and distinct flavor profiles I have ever tried. Every step of the preparation process was tailored to the specific drying and roasting process for the bean, from temperature to grind. We tried the strawberry and the geisha and they were both top five coffees I have ever had. It is clear Nico is passionate and knowledgeable about his craft in a way that few are. It was an utter delight to visit Maven and I will visit every day that I am in Wilmington.
What a great little shop to grab the best coffee I've ever had—honestly. Also, I bought a bag of their coffee that they ground for the specific brewing method I have at home.
I am highly impressed with this little coffee bar. Being a bit of a coffee lover, I’ve drank coffee from one coast to the other and will seek out the best coffee shops in an area when I go to different locations. This coffee shop is top 2 on my list in the US and has stolen the spot for #1 in Wilmington. All of their coffees are top quality in taste but their signature blend has me coming back. I drive out of my way just for this place. Also my girlfriend absolutely LOVES the matcha here! Thanks for bringing joy to my tastebuds
One of the best coffee shops I've been to! The coffee is great, and they even work with farmers in Colombia to get the best beans to roast. The barista I spoke with was super friendly, and was happy to explain everything about the coffee. I will definitely be back!
i'm always in search of the perfect cuppa and have learned there are many in Wilmington (unfortunately, none in Leland). Maven hit a home run with the rich deep taste of the coffee, organic milk (i prefer to take my hormones and antibiotics separately and only when absolutely necessary) at just the right temperature to enhance its sweetness. Owner Nicholas gave me an overview of what makes the best coffee experience and his vision for his shop--a place for people to learn (vs. be engrossed in their laptops) and engage. Can't wait to take his coffee class and try the other blends he roasts. I will be back soon!
I love this shop!!! The hospitality and kindness in this place comes second to none- The owners are so sincere and friendly. The atmosphere of the shop is peaceful, modern, clean and inviting (and also esthetically pleasing for pictures). In regards to the coffee itself, all I can say is the QUALITY!! They truly serve the best specialty coffee with exquisite, unique flavors and carefully selected roasts. It’s 100% worth the price for the best coffee in town. I would also absolutely bring every one of my friends here and hope every person in town discovers this gem in Wilmington.
Owner was extremely knowledgeable about his coffees and techniques of bean roasting and brewing. The best pour over I have had. My husband had a decaf cappuccino. Excellent decaf. Great bold flavor
