Excellent location. Always easy to grab a parking space. Interesting/different rotating taps and right next door to a fantastic ice cream and burger joint so how could you go wrong?

Can’t rate the food because we didn’t have any. Simply checked it out for the beverage options that it had. We went in kind of an off time so got a lot more specialized attention than if we’d have gone during a busy time. It’s a cool atmosphere and has a lot of good beverage options. Worth a visit even if just To stock up on drinks

Weirdly sloppy on weekend nights. Feels like bartender brunette is running a private trashcan club. Super drunk and loud people, dogs off leashes barking and pissing on the turf.While trying to get a drink one particularly drunk dude ranted at me about birth replacement rates. Same bro intentionally scared my wife with his dog later. Told the bartender, she looks at bro with her friends and kicks me out.Used to be a regular, but thankful for the push to go explore Wilmington's many other better options.✌️

Oh my goodness! It's a late summer afternoon... okay, maybe an early evening in September and I am LOVING the vibe. I'm sitting out on a covered porch area with an ABUNDANCE of upholstered giant booth cushions... imagine 20 people around one table if you wanted. Edison lights in the trees provide poetic ambiance. Tunes are playing and, omg, I think my husband has that "wanna dance?" look in his eye. The young guys at the next table just brought a couple of yummy-looking beer flights over. (Why didn't I think of that??) ;) There are picnic tables and a small band area just beyond the porch... and just across the pet-friendly green area is a Seafood Food Truck. I'm jamming' on some fish tacos. Does it get any better?? Uh oh. My man just brought me some banana pudding cheesecake.... Gotta' go! Delish is calling my name! (Kudos to the Seaview Crab Company and the Chef's fish tacos and shrimp tacos!)

Great spot to grab a drink with friends. Will have to come back for drinks outside with live music.

My boyfriend and I enjoy the relaxing atmosphere at Palate. Their vast selection of wine and craft beer made it easy to try new things. There's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating with a fully fenced-in patio. So don't fret, and go ahead and bring your best pal along to grab a drink at Palate.

I LOVED this place! The vibes are very chill and laid back, which was perfect. It was also walking distance from where I live but also other fun places as well. I ordered a citrus ginger cider, which was good, and then a Boozy something that tasted like an orange soda (7.5% ABV was very dangerous because it tasted 10/10). We even went on open mic night and everyone that stepped up was great (especially for a Wednesday!). The service was also great and everyone was very nice and attentive, which I appreciated. It was pretty busy when I got there, but I still got to the bar easily. I can't wait to go back!

After not visiting for a long time because of a baby party with kids doing cartwheels over and over. Sad choice for a baby anything. Several reasons which I don't think I need to point out.I was hoping for a glass of the peach basil sangria, but it was just peach. It was the only thing I liked, but without basil it's not even tolerable. What happened to the strawberry basil sangria? We were just trying to enjoy a beverage but it was not enjoyable due to all the activity.I was at least hoping to enjoy it.I wish I had a better review.

super fun spot! I attended to see a drag show and it was great. Just be aware it’s just beer and wine and they have a food truck on a rotating basis. The venue itself was adorable. I’ll definitely be back.

Nice local place with a chill vibe. It is a great place for relaxing with a glass of wine or a cold beer. Staff was very friendly and helpful in picking out some wine to go. Nice outside patio area and dog friendly.

The most magical bar on the East Coast. Immaculate vibes, cozy seating, and an atmosphere that elicits the best conversations.

I tried talking to the owner to explain what was going on but he hung up on me. I called back thinking it was a mistake and his receptionist hung up on me. I would never visit here again
