4th Friday Festival in Downtown Wilmington

Thalian Hall Bluegrass Bash

Restaurants

• Indochine - Asian Food; Zen Garden outside is nice if the weather allows it, the inside speaks for itself! • Flaming Amy's Burrito Barn - A Wilmington staple, tex mex, tacky, giant burritos, the jalapeno salsa is famous. • Johnny Lukes - The short ribs are killer! • Seabird - if you're feeling fancy and seafood, BOOK IN ADVANCE • Olivero - probably already booked out, but it's getting national attention. $$$$$ • Savorez - Latin / Panamanian food, smaller menu, big taste. • The Rooster + The Crow - best fried chicken hands down, soul food! • Double Happiness, chinese/asian food • Wondering Cone - Icecream ! &lt;3

Bars

• Bluepost - packed on the weekends, best to go when play darts, games, pool when it’s less busy, unless you like to wait to get into a busy cool place! • Barbary Coast - DIVE BAR, everybody is friendly, drink with locals. • Satellite Bar and Lounge - it's a short uber or drive away from downtown (5 mins) but it is one of the best places in town. Very welcoming. • Blind Elephant - Speakeasy located in the alleyway of Front Street Brewery, there is a fee to get in, worth it! • Fly Trap, local small brewery that is located in the Brooklyn Arts District • Ibis - Coffee/Record bar in the soda pop district, check their IG for DJ nights and times, limited seating. • Jimmy WB - this is WB's busiest beach bar with dollar bills taped to the ceiling, I don't know what else to say. • The Palm Room at WB is laid back and usually cuts on live music later in the evening on the weekends. • Fat Pelican CB - this place is a fire hazard LOL such a great bar 10/10.
