Best chocolate shops

Hi yall! I’ve lived here for almost 15 years and have still been ordering chocolates from my favorite hometown shop several states away.

I reckon it’s time to find a local spot! Can anyone recommend me one? TIA!

A wild funnel cloud today over wilmington.

I thought that I was about to witness a tornado touching down. Thankfully, it stayed just how it is in the photos. Also, we need a weather flair.

Anyone have good recommendations on small local bands for a gig?

My boss is looking to host a public event at my work with live music, and I wanted to get some recommendations on local bands! The genre he is thinking of are classic rock, blues, and/or jam band. He would prefer if the group would do more covers, but original work would be fine. The event would be in the Glen Mills area on September 25th. If the bands have a website or any contact info, please link it as well. Thanks!

Looking to make new friends!

Hi everyone! I’m a 31F moving to Wilmington this November and I’d love to make some new friends and find my people in the area!
I’m definitely a mix of introvert + extrovert — I love going out and being social, but I’m also perfectly happy staying in with a good book.

I’d especially love to find a book club (I read mostly dark romance but will read anything tbh) hiking buddies, people to grab coffee with, explore Wilmington with, or just others looking to make genuine friendships!

I have ✨social anxiety✨ haha

Dart reroute proposal for November 15th 2026

Good news for people in trolley/delaware avenue area and downtown/riverfront residents. The infrequent route 10 thru Delaware avenue is being replaced by the 33 to improve OTP. If you live in downtown, trolley, del ave, or the riverfront, you now have a much more convenient and frequent bus to the mall,Christiana hospital, trolley square, and UD. Good decision by dart imo.

MY NEW POLLING CARD IS HERE!

In spite of all that is lacking, Delaware does get it right from time to time. If you haven't received yours yet, ivote .de .gov. If anyone needs assistance or a ride to the polls, I am at your service. This is a service for republicans in Wilmington because gas ain't cheap! That was a joke. Everyone needs to fulfill their civic duty.

Moving to LOMA area

I was looking into the LOMA area of Wilmington and I was wondering if I had chosen a safe area or not. I’ve been through the area but not at night yet due to distance and daytime obligations.

Lost Dog Sighting

At the corner of 8th and Van Buren, I spotted a loose dog. Large light brown boxer mix. When I tried to call her over she jogged down Van Buren towards Cool Spring Park. I couldn't get a picture in time which I know isn't helpful but I wanted to post this for tracking purposes in case someone is looking for her.

Selling lightly used items (under a year) due to cross country move!

Hi yall! Please message if interested.

The projector is a Formovie short throw laser projector. This is ideal for those that like projectors and understand a good projector is not cheap. My price is fair against its retail. Please do your research before messaging me. I would appreciate it!

I wanted to get some insight on the Brandywine Village neighborhood more specifically between N Washington and N market and W 24th and W 27th streets. Is it safe in this area? I know you should be cautious anywhere you go but just want to be prepared. Thanks!

Requested for trash pick up -still there?

I called the city to schedule a trash pick up for an old mattress since we recently got a new one. They told me to put the mattress out where we usually put our trash out after 6pm yesterday (Friday), but as of 1:30pm today, the mattress is still on the curb. Does anyone know when it will actually get picked up? I hate contributing to trash in the city and want to be sure I’m doing the right thing
