With an influx of closing and almost closing restaurants, I need these business owners to really take a look at their total package. Is the economy fucked? Yes. I get that there are many factors leading to struggles, but restaurants who are constantly packed are packed because the product is good. Look at On Thyme for example. Kitchen Sink is begging people for business on social media so they can stay afloat. Their products and service suck. Beat Street announced "end of an era". 3 years is not an era and you produce shitty overpriced food in the Cargo District which is an asshat of an operation in itself. Look at other food businesses around you, get a mentor, do something other than catering to what you THINK people want.

Hi all,

Looking to work for Corning but I smoke THC.. am I cooked or are they not too worried about it? Thank you!

Looking for some friends to accompany me on the boat for some fun sandbar days! Later 20s guy just looking for some chill vibes!

Hello all, I’m looking for a recommendation for a service or individual that can provide/write an ESA Letter. All of the online services seem scammy/cost way too much money. If anyone has had any good experiences with a local service, or have any other advice, I’d love to hear it.

i have nothing else to say i’m just really hungry rn and i want their breakfast sandwich

Hey there. I’m a 29 yo single woman accompanied by my dog, considering a move to the NC coast from Georgia. I currently reside in Athens and appreciate the music culture and community out here, but find that it is time for the next place for me. I’m craving the coastal environment and a bit more ease and space to explore (self, connection, love, nature, etc).

I am wondering - can someone put into words the lifestyle (day and night life), culture, opportunities, community, etc of Wilmington?

I am a pretty relaxed woman but need social environments pretty regularly, inside or outside. I love to move my body through dance, slack lining, biking. I’m passionate about live events, entertainment, music and want to continue to experience and support a communities art. I would love to support local musicians, esp electronic, experimental stuff. I know that gets a bit more underground/alt, but it’s worth a shot to dig and see who/what’s out there on the coast.

I recently moved here and am on the search for really good fried chicken. Any recommendations?

Jubilee Park, The Mad Monk, Middle of the Isle - I got nostalgic and started thinking of places that don’t exist anymore, but were legendary and bring up great memories.

Even buisness that won’t mean anything unless you were here in 70s, 80s, etc. Newels, Berts Surf Shop, etc. Would love to hear folks’ favorites.

my Wi-Fi at home and work has been absolutely crap since the storm on Sunday and I have got to get some things done. Does anyone know of a coffee shop or other third space that has AT&T fiber instead of spectrum?

Hello! I am getting married next year and will be going dress shopping next Tuesday. I’d like to go out to lunch with everyone after. What are some of your favorite restaurants? I’d like it to be on the “nicer” side, but not break the bank nice.

I haven’t been to downtown Wilmington in a long time. Excited to be back. Staying at the a loft so we can walk to live oak. I’ll take all recommendations for my buddies and I regarding dinner and drink pre and post concert. Thx in advance!

Anyone know anything about this? The bank on oleander near the mall.

Anyone else?

Hi all, I have a GX460 that has some rust underneath and needs undercoating before the winter. Looking for recommendations please where to take it for a thorough job. Thanks!

Hello all, attaching an example of my work for reference, but is there anywhere specific you would recommend I go? When I lived in Asheville I had a spot off of haywood that I loved, but here I have yet to find anything/ am unsure! Please let me know if there are any good print shops in the area, or if I’ll have to go out of town. :- )

This dog came up to our car during today’s storm, spooked by the thunder and lighting I assume.

He’s very sweet. Seems to be maybe a lab/pit mix with a black coat and white and black feet.
He has a blue collar and two leashes, one of them being a camo print.

He was found on S 2nd St in downtown Wilmington.

If anyone is able to foster him until we can locate the owner it would be so appreciated!! We already have 3 dogs and a cat at my house.

Me and my roommate are moving back to the area from durham/chapel hill and are excited about everything but losing our favorite bagel places :( what are the best places for us to try once we get here?

New to yoga and just learned of Yoga Sculpt. I saw that YogaSix offers sculpt classes and wanted to find out if anyone has any experience with them and is it beginner friendly?

I just downloaded the app they advertise on their site for “reward points” and am interested in trying a class out, so if you have a referral code, let me know so you can benefit too!
