This is a good pastry and coffee shop with a good selection of desserts and bakery.
They do have sandwiches etc.
The french toast was not great. It was a multigrain toast i guess. Two bites were enough.
The mini tarts and coffee were good
This is an adorable little spot hidden away in the corner of a residential neighborhood, that's easily missed if you don't know what you're looking for. Like other Amelie's locations, they are mostly well known for their pastries and coffee, but I went with a friend to sample their other menu items.
I ordered a wrap, and she, the French onion dip(officially, some kind of toasted beef sandwich with melted cheese that you dunk in the bowl of French onion). Both were incredibly hot and fresh. It was delivered to our table in a timely manner, and it tasted pretty consistent with other locations.
Not too expensive, and the decorations were fun and lighthearted. I attached images about the surrounding visuals just so you can get a better sense of the atmosphere. I give it top marks for a chill afternoon rendezvous.
When we arrived it was already black dark out, but the place was still fairly packed. I figure they must be doing something right. Not exactly my scene, but I completely get it. We were there for about 3 hours talking, and the staff didn't bother us at all.
I wouldn't recommend it if you're looking to study, or write over your coffee. It was much too loud for that. Many parents brought crying children, and they seemed almost encouraged to let them run around at a breakneck pace. Don't come if you expect relaxation. It's more like a tiki bar, or a mall terminal. Teens and young adults are heavily encouraged to visit.
4/5 is fair.
Fun kitschy place with the best coffee I’ve ever had, this side of the Atlantic! The twice-baked almond croissant was perfectly flaky and perfectly delicious. Wish there was an Amelie’s in my area.
