Amélie's Uptown | French Bakery & Cafe

EC L 2 months ago

Came here because it’s supposed to be one of those iconic movie-related spots in Charlotte—specifically, because of the "Hunger Games" macarons. The atmosphere is truly unique; it feels like a cross between an art gallery and a film set. The macarons are decent—they have quite a bit of artificial coloring, but a good texture and flavor. The coffee was just average, too: nothing spectacular, but not bad either. They offer regular milk, almond and oat 'milk'

Whether you're stopping by for breakfast, lunch, or a sweet treat, Amélie’s consistently delivers exceptional quality and flavor. The cozy ambiance, unique décor, and attention to detail make every visit special. If you're in Charlotte and looking for an authentic French café experience, this place is a must-visit!

Amelie’s at the College Street Shops in Uptown Charlotte has a lot of promise as a workspace café, but my first visit left something to be desired on the food and beverage front. The matcha was underwhelming - average in flavor and noticeably undermixed, which affected the overall quality of the drink. The crème brûlée, unfortunately, had a distinctly burnt taste that made it difficult to enjoy. That said, the café’s layout is genuinely impressive for anyone seeking a productive work environment. The space offers an abundance of seating options and plentiful outlets, making it one of the more accommodating work-from-café spots I’ve visited in Uptown. I would be open to returning and trying additional menu items to see if my experience improves, but I would temper expectations around the food and beverage offerings based on this visit.

I have been here twice in the week and a 1/2., both times for breakfast and I have to say not only was the food delicious, but the interior is gorgeous, this location is just exquisite in the atmosphere. So many amazing touches, and you can sit outside or inside or upstairs or downstairs. You can people watch in uptown Charlotte. What could be better than this place?
