Bespoke, a Neighborhood Bar and Coffee Shop in downtown Wilmington, was reimagined by designers Patrick Di Rito and Janine MacKenzie as a seamless blend of espresso culture and Italian aperitivo tradition. The space now reflects the ease and intimacy of European cafés, balanced with the precision and warmth of Southern hospitality. Richly textured materials—painted brick walls, brass and opal glass light fixtures, and detailed, warm oak wood and brass tones of the bar and bar back —ground the experience in old-world charm. The back bar inspired by vintage Italian bottle shops houses North Carolina’s largest amaro collection, while the bespoke millwork and warm leather seating offer a tactile, welcoming elegance. This transformation honors the legacy of the beloved coffee shop while ushering in a new, all-day ritual for the neighborhood.
