Drift Cafe Wrightsville Beach

We arrived around 8:15 am and were seated right away, there were four in our party. We ordered breakfast from our friendly waitress plus a smoothie and ice coffee, both were good albeit served in very small glasses given their cost. I ordered the Pulled Pork Benny, the pork was dry and lukewarm, what saved the meal were the two perfectly poached eggs and the sauce on top. Roasted potatoes were seasoned well and crispy but again, just lukewarm. Everyone in our party agreed the food was tasty but not served warm enough.

Have enjoyed dining here multiple times now. Excellent coffees and pastries. The food here has always been excellent, sweet and savory options for all tastes. Great atmosphere and service as well. Highly recommend.

We were very late and had coffee. They made coffee by the cup so it was very good, and low acidity. Place looked nice, would want too try their food next time. Cozy inside with view of boat dock. Nice patio outside and a special coffee to go pick up area.

Brunch here was delicious! We went around 11 and were seated right away by the kindest staff members. Food didn’t take too long to come out. We got the crispy chicken sandwich (great batter, great crisp), grain bowl (delicious and filling), and breakfast burritos (also so delightful with great flavors). We also ordered a side of crispy potatoes, but I don’t think it was worth the money since we got about 5-6 pieces for $5. My friend was a little annoyed about this - so overpriced! Overall the experience was chill and the entrees were well worth their prices. I would recommend this cafe and would definitely come again.

Drift is an absolute must for breakfast/brunch!
I got the sweet stack and a chai latte and let me tell you what, they did not disappoint.
We asked for outdoor seating and only had a party of two, so we did not have a wait.
Our waitress was friendly and attentive. Service was fast.
Food was DELICIOUS!
Don't pass it up!

I came in for breakfast one day and was not overly impressed by food or coffee (both seemed more concerned with being instagrammable than tasty), but the service was excellent. They made great use of the space as well, and the interior had a nice amount of natural light! I don't see this being a regular coffee or brunch spot for me, but it's worth visiting once for the ambiance.

Wonderful spot for coffee and breakfast. Coffee sourced from Annapolis roaster-Ceremony. No burnt beans here. Perfect cappuccino. I had the chia seed breakfast and my husband had the generously portioned pulled pork Benny-delicious. Prompt and cheerful service.

Well done drift 👏🏼👏🏼 full service restaurant here! We thought the new location would just be another counter-order coffee shop/kitchen, but it’s a full blown sit down cafe. Larger portion sizes, more menu items, reasonably priced. Such a classy but casual brunch spot. Much needed in Wilmington! I hope the lavender coconut flat white can be a permanent menu item. I will say I personally prefer the pancakes at the original Drift, but these are so pretty. Annnd they serve alcoholic beverages at this location! Their staff is unbelievably friendly as well. I love their outdoor patio dining too. It’s great that they add “limited during lunch” to some menu items, I think that transparency is admirable since so many restaurants are facing shortages. A++

The food is always incredible! A great spot to go solo or with your pals. I love their cocktail menu, they include some great choices along with some Mimosa options… but cant go wrong with a coffee drink :)
Im a huge fan of their french fries and I lovee their aioli! Had the best pulled pork Benedict this morning. The staff is great, everyone is so friendly and nice!

The flavors are absolutely phenomenal. One of the best brunches I've ever had, can't wait to eat here again. Our waitress Madison B was super sweet, attentive and gave great recommendations!! Grain & egg bowl and coconut latte pictured.
