Crema's Take

Sweet Nel's is a charming Wilmington spot that brilliantly blends ice cream shop and casual café, earning loyal fans for their inventive savory crepes—especially the bacon egg and cheese with pesto—alongside their rotating selection of gelato and ice cream flavors. The friendly, helpful staff and family-friendly vibe make it perfect for a leisurely breakfast or quick pick-me-up, whether you're craving something sweet or savory. It's the kind of local gem where the specials feel genuinely exciting rather than an afterthought.

I know this is mostly an ice cream location but I love their crepes! It's always a big pick me up to have a savory bacon egg and cheese crepe, with the pesto sauce too :) Plus their ice cream is great! A wide selection of flavors, plus gelato too!

I visited this ice cream shop on a whim. It was close to my hotel. They had a lot of flavors of ice cream and they also have an assortment of gelato flavors. They had cones too but since Im gluten free I just had a small cup which was huge for 5.95. I had chocolate and mint chocolate chip. Very tasty. I would go again.

Great local sweets shop! We stopped here for some gelato and a crepe, and both were very good. The ice cream flavors were exciting went we enjoyed the ones we got. And they even included a free "Nelly" on top, which is a mini scoop of any flavor we went to try. My husband really enjoyed the coconut flavor! The only complaint is that you can't get any free samples. But they do allow you to get two flavors for the small size + the Nelly on top, for a total of three flavors. Overall, it's a great place and definitely recommend it.

Stopped in to grab some breakfast on a Sunday morning. It was good overall. We had a crepe with ham, spinach, and egg, with spicy pesto. It was very good! The waffle we had was a little disappointing. The fruit toppings were super fresh but the waffle itself wasn't very soft and didn't have much taste. The lattes we had were good. We didn't have ice cream but they have a lot of selections if that is what you are interested in.
