"The Charcoal Pit has been around since 1956, and its black-and-white tiled floors, red leather booths and giant neon sign feel like something straight out of Grease. This spot is a Wilmington staple with a menu of cheeseburgers, fries, onion rings, ice cream sundaes, and black-and-white milkshakes. It’s the kind of place you used to go with friends all through high school, and now take your kids to as a special treat on Friday night." - maddy sweitzer lamme
