Downtown Wilmington, North Carolina is home to The Little Dipper. The idea for this restaurant was developed from a love of fondue which is highly matched by our love of Historic Wilmington and its surrounding beaches and community. The building was established in 1937, so along with such a rich history came a total up fit of interior design that would recreate a modern, but cozy feeling while maintaining the integrity of the old building. Happily, The Little Dipper hung its hand-carved sign and opened the doors July 15, 2005.
Our full course menu includes a cheese fondue, salad or soup, entrees to be cooked at the table, and chocolate fondue. In addition to the full course menu we offer an a la’ carte version including our cheese appetizers, salads, various grilled meats, gourmet grilled cheese, seafood and dessert fondues which can all be enjoyed in the bar beside the jellyfish tank or outside on the back deck when the weather is warm.
