"Wilmington: Gems in a Small City" Top 5 Page for this destination Wilmington by hochbeam


Wilmington Travel Guide: 145 reviews and 168 photos

Welcome to Wilmington!

I'm a big fan of my little home town, and I started this page to bring notice to some of the little out-of-the-way restaurants that can be found in the city. There are plenty of good restaurants in the city not covered here, like the Green Room at the Hotel DuPont, that can do their own marketing. I'm here to help the little guy, except for a few personal favorites among the established places. Now I'm expanding the page from just restaurants to other topics, with an emphasis on the Trolley Square area where I live. [Thanks to Johane Cherico for doing restaurant reviews with me. By the way, this is a totally noncommercial page, and I am not affiliated with any of the businesses reviewed here.]

Pros and Cons
  • Pros:Everyone knows everyone else here.
  • Cons:Everyone knows everyone else here.
  • In a nutshell:A good city, on the rise.
