So glad I stopped here while in Charlotte! This place is so kitschy, affordable, delicious and a great place for solo travelers or groups!! I got a Tiramisu Latte (fantastic) and the Chicken Salad Sandwich (so so good, and a great portion for a great price). The best part is definitely the artsy-French inspired art that I was told is all done by the owner — brava to her!!! Before I left I snagged a few macarons and a fruit tart that were delish If I’m back in town I’ll be coming back for sure! ❤️

What a cute place! I walked by on a holiday weekend and the line was basically out the door. On Tuesday, I was one of the few people there and able to grab a bit quickly. I tried the brownie cheesecake and loved it. The decorations are what really make this place, though: just fun, quirky furniture, chandeliers, and more that give a real Parisian feel.

I read very good reviews so I went there with great expectations. It came true to certain extent. There sandwiches were good and had quick service. Coffee was awesome, we tried Salted caramel mocha and tiramisu flavor. We had 6 different types of macaroons- vanilla, raspberry, chocolate ganache, Cafe au lait, cookies and cream and s’more. All were good, but little on sweeter side. Their decor was very different, they wanted to emphasize on French decor and they succeeded in it. Its very big place – more of restaurant than a café. If they can keep it cleaner it would look great. It had a little gloomy look.

The decor in this place alone makes it worth visiting. The macaroons are amazing – we wanted to go back for more. Lovely bakery with create your own sandwiches, and plenty of freshly baked pastries. Highly recommend!

Come for the food, stay for the quirky atmosphere! The different chandeliers are so fun, as well as the random art all over the walls. We got a Samoa tart and pistachio petit four. Both were AMAZING! Parking is tricky, we had to park a few streets over because there was no parking in front for the time of our visit. The staff were very friendly, patient (there’s so many things to choose from!) and helpful.

A breakfast cafe of the playful style. Not only with a variety of sweet pastries and Danish, the bakery also has a lot to offer. The eye doesn’t get bored. Each lamp is artistically individual. After ordering, the prepared self will be picked up. No table service. There are many types of coffee to taste. A nice way to start the day. There are enough seats on different levels.

The staff were very friendly, and the atmosphere is incredible, with great music and a wide variety of beautiful desserts. Personally, I found some desserts to be quite sweet, and the matcha latte and café mocha had more foam than expected, which slightly took away from the latte flavor compared to other locations but I still love Amélie’s and always enjoy coming back.

The eggs: cold, spinach getting bad, French toast: hard. Not what you’d expect from Amelie’s. If you go for pastries and coffee it’s great. Seating areas are amazing.
Recommend: Get a chef that cares about food immediately.

Lovely décor and a calming ambience—perfectly peaceful during a weekday lunchtime. I noticed quite a few people working, which added to the relaxed vibe. The hot chocolate was thick and creamy, just how it should be. We also tried the chocolate croissant and the gâteau—both were absolutely delicious. Will definitely be coming back!

We loved this French Bakery while we visited Charlotte. It’s is a casual service style restaurant where you order your treats at a counter and then pick up your order at a window, but it has all the comforts of a dine in restaurants; there is no table service. It has a beautiful interior with wonderful artworks and designs all over the restaurant. It gave it such a relaxing atmosphere. We only went for the delicious pastry and tried the quiche. They did not disappoint and the prices were so reasonable. Highly recommend it if you are in Charlotte for a stop as it is convenient to the Charlotte Convention Center and the Uptown area. They serve French style breakfast and sandwiches as well. Maybe when we are back in town we will be able to try the other items on the menu.
