12 Hottest Restaurants in Wilmington, North Carolina

"One of the newest additions to the Brooklyn Arts District, the Jelly Cabinet is a small-scale bakery that has been regularly selling out since opening this past July. The cinnamon rolls practically have their own fan club, and owner/baker Phillip Jones changes the flavor monthly. Depending on the day, the bakery case might also include savory biscuits, coffee cake, s’mores brownies, and slices of sheet cake (a recent iteration was a chocolate cake with dark cherry and pomegranate filling, a vanilla Swiss meringue buttercream, and chocolate ganache.)" - Matt Lardie

I love visiting Jelly Cabinet every weekend! They always have a different selection, which makes every trip exciting. I especially look forward to seeing their Paris-Brest, corn cream puffs, and the many unique kinds of cakes they bring back — treats you don’t find at other bakeries around here. Their strawberry matcha and blueberry matcha drinks are also so refreshing and the perfect complement to their desserts. It’s a special place that keeps surprising me with new and delicious creations. Can’t wait to see what they come up with next!

The Jelly Cabinet is one of the best bakeries in Wilmington! Although only open on weekends, it is definitely worth the wait during the week. Their coffee cake is delicious, and we recently tried one of their specials which was a goat cheese and banana pepper focaccia bread. It was warm when we ordered it and didn’t even make it home, we ate it right away! The staff is always pleasant and very informative.

Come for the cinnamon rolls and stay for the smells! Seriously, this is the best smelling place in Wilmington. Everything is good, but the big cinnamon roll is AMAZING! Possibly the best cinnamon rolls I've ever had. Arrive early for best selection. Items can be pricy but the quality definitely makes up for it.

Peaceful quiet atmosphere. Great Vietnamese cold brew! Really enjoyed the cinnamon roll and cheddar and chive scone. Solid choice for a sweet treat

This bakery is amazing! Those cinnamon rolls….delicious! We’ve tried the cinnamon rolls, both the regular and the special August peach cobbler flavor, cheddar biscuits, blueberry biscuits, and cookies. They were all so good! We also got a lemonade and the Vietnamese coffee which were both great. The owner Phillip and his mom and sister both work the bakery and are as kind as can be - you feel like part of the family when you walk in. Can’t recommend this place enough and we’ll certainly be back! Great addition to Wilmington!

We were in town for work and when visiting a new city we love to find locally owned businesses to try. Well we started searching for bakeries and were not coming up with a lot of places. I was searching instagram and came across The Jelly Cabinet. I am so glad we did. We read the story of how the bakery came about and were just thrilled to try it. The cinnamon rolls were calling us from the moment we saw them on social media. We were waiting in the parking lot for them to open. The bakery is delightful and inviting. The cinnamon rolls are simply amazing. They are not too sweet and the frosting is perfection. If you are in the area, please pay them a visit. You will not be disappointed.

Wow wow wow! So yum. We got a cinnamon roll, cheddar chive biscuit, blueberry lemon coffee cake, and passion fruit cupcake. Each one was so delicious. Small bench outside so definitely more of a grab and go place. SO worth getting up early on a Saturday!

The best bakery in town! Family owned and operated. Nothing is cloyingly sweet. Fresh, bouncy, airy dough and beyond delicious!!! Cookies, cinnamon rolls and a peach cobbler cinnamon roll- also very friendly

Ventured downtown to give this place a try . It was easy to find parking on the street and walked right in. It smelled absolutely wonderful, it was after 11:00 so there was not a lot left . The cinnamon bun caught my eye , it was enormous. The staff are super friendly and very fast to help you . I took my cinnamon bun to go , figured I'd share it since it was so large. It was perfectly cooked , nicely baked and not a ton of icing. The icing was very pleasant - not annoyingly sweet . The bun had great flavor , just the right amount of cinnamon on it . Definitely a place to go back to .

What a great little bakery in the Brooklyn Arts District. They had a great combination of savory and sweet options. I got their Cheddar and Garlic biscuit, it was flakey, cheesy and packed with garlicky flavor. The Strawberry Nutella cinnamon was incredibly, it had a great balance to it and was not overly sweet, but just right. Will definitely be back to try out some more of their creations.

My first visit to the Jelly Cabinet & I was so impressed! They had a great selection of both sweet and savory treats ranging from scones, to biscuits & cinnamon rolls. For the month of February they even had a few specials on rotation: strawberry biscuits & strawberry Nutella cinnamon rolls. I got the strawberry Nutella cinnamon roll & I must say it was delicious. The roll was layered with strawberry jam and topped with the perfect amount of cream cheese. All while not being overly sweet. Looking forward to coming back and giving the blueberry biscuits a try.

Food at The Jelly Cabinet is fabulous and very creative! Some of it looks like pictures in a magazine! I've always had great customer service and the ambiance is quaint and charming! It exudes a feeling of warmth and coziness like a grandmother's kitchen! Give it a try and you won't be sorry!

Great cinnamon roll, nice and fresh. The roll was soft and fluffy, and the icing not too sweet, which is a big plus for me. Coffee was nothing special, just your average cup-o-joe. They had other bakery items that definitely looked worth a try!

Tried the feta and Havarti biscuit, blueberry biscuit, and cinnamon rolls. They were all great. Biscuits were buttery and soft. Cinnamon roll was soft with a good amount of cream cheese frosting. Besides the baked goods, beverage options were hot coffee, Vietnamese iced coffee, lemonade, or iced green tea. Got the Vietnamese iced coffee, which was not very good, but nice try.

I had an adorable and delicious heart-shaped strawberry scone here. It was so tasty, I bought one for a friend. The place is cute as a button and service is top-notch!

This was my first visit to TJC and I was not disappointed by the offerings. My friends and I got cheddar biscuits and they were so good. The staff is friendly and we were helped rather quickly. The shop is a small shop but it's quaint and the workers/owners(?) were happily serving us and others.

Absolutely fantastic little spot! We can't wait to go back! We came here late Saturday morning, around 11am and they had cinnamon rolls, yeast rolls, savory scones, apple betty, blueberry scones... and more! All still in stock! Blueberry scone wasn't too sweet which I appreciate. Very good and fresh tasting blueberries. Savory Scone - This was also fantastic, perfect consistency and great flavor. We loved it. Apple Betty - this was the highlight! It was SO SO good and they mentioned it is seasonal so get in there and get at least one if not two of these! They have plenty of seating inside, plenty of street parking and the service was impecable! They were so sweet!

I couldn't decide so I took one of almost everything. My favorites were the coffee cake, cinnamon roll and the chocolate espresso cupcake.

Came from Leland for the famed Cinnamon Rolls on Father's Day. Had to choose between classic and honey cornmeal. Chose both (along with a blueberry biscuit and a bourbon caramel chocolate cupcake). Absolutely incredible! No longer need to drive to Myrtle Beach for Cinnabon on my birthday and Father's Day.

Great new spot for delicious baked goods. We tried a biscoff cinnamon roll, cheddar cheese biscuit, blueberry biscuit, key lime cookie and watermelon lemonade. All were amazing! I could eat the cheddar biscuit everyday!!! Yum!

Well worth the visit. Brought back home a box of baked goods and everyone was thrilled. Local gem. Service was great and I love the location in the Brooklyn arts district.
