Core Restaurant Info
Open every day from 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. at Lumina Station, minutes from Wrightsville Beach. We close only two days a year: Thanksgiving and Christmas.
We’re at 1900 Eastwood Rd #44, in the Lumina Station shopping village off Eastwood Road, near Mayfaire and UNCW and minutes from Wrightsville Beach. Parking is free in the shared Lumina Station lot — out front, around back, or off to the side.
On weekdays between September 1 and May 1, yes — call (910) 239-9258 and the host will set it up. On weekends, and through the summer from May into early September, seating is walk-in with the Yelp Waitlist. We don’t take weekend reservations at any time of year.
Join the same-day Yelp Waitlist from the Yelp app, our website, our Google listing, or by phone. Check in at the host stand within 10 minutes of your quoted time or the spot is released and you’d rejoin from the bottom. To cancel, reply STOP to the confirmation text. Arriving before 9:30 a.m. or after 1:00 p.m. is the easiest way to skip the longest waits.
Private events aren’t offered at the Wilmington location. After-hours private buyouts are exclusive to our Barefoot Landing location in North Myrtle Beach — call (843) 281-0048 to inquire.
Very — high chairs are available and the portions are big enough to share. There’s no separate kids’ menu, but the sides make easy smaller plates: eggs, bacon or sausage, chicken sausage, fries, fresh fruit, grits, biscuits and gravy, or a blueberry muffin.
We’re gluten-friendly, not a certified gluten-free kitchen. We offer gluten-friendly substitutions, and all of our salads can be prepared gluten-friendly. Because we handle wheat throughout the kitchen, anyone with celiac or a serious allergy should ask for the manager on arrival so they can talk it through.
Parties of six or more have an automatic 20% gratuity added to the check. It’s printed on the menu, and you can always add more.
Yes — the patio is dog-friendly, and we’ll bring a bowl of cold water on request. Indoor seating is for guests only.
Takeout is rare here — we often can’t do it on weekends or through the busy summer, so call (910) 239-9258 to check before you count on it. We’re not on any delivery apps.
Menu & Favorites
A great place to start is the Blueberry Crème Brûlée French Toast — thick-cut challah dipped in vanilla custard, topped with blueberry cream cheese icing. The Blueberry Pancakes and Sweet Potato Pancakes are favorites too.
The Charleston Shrimp & Grits and the Crab Cake Benedict are guest favorites. If you want something hearty, the skillets are built for it.
Yes — the Blueberry Pancakes are made with real buttermilk and fresh blueberries, with blueberry syrup and whipped butter.
Every omelette is made with three eggs and comes with a side. Try one like the Mediterranean, the Creole Atlantic Seafood, or the Carolinian, or compose your own.
Start with the Blueberry Hushpuppies — blue-cornmeal hushpuppies with honey butter and blueberry compote. The lump crab cake and the fried green tomato are easy to pass around too.
All of it is on thick-cut challah: the Blueberry Crème Brûlée French Toast, the Bananas Foster and Walnuts French Toast, the Cinnamon Roll French Toast, and a plain version.
Yes — a Belgian waffle and the Blueberry Ricotta Waffle, plus a gluten-friendly waffle if you need it.
Mimosas and Bloody Marys from the full bar, and 100% Colombian coffee. Fresh-squeezed orange juice if you’re keeping it simple.
