Another popular edition to the growing backlot of Park Road Shopping Center, Amelie's biggest location gets a strong start! We stopped in around 9am on opening Saturday to enjoy some breakfast and experienced a fast-moving line and plenty of smiles.
You know the drill: salted caramel brownies, mouth-watering flaky croissants, and traditional cafe drinks. This visit I enjoyed a raspberry streusel muffin and we got back in line to grab three more croissants to save us a trip for the next morning.
The funky decor permeates throughout three different seating areas, including a large main floor, some elevated seating on the right when you walk in, and a large patio that will certainly get more use once the dog days of summer depart.
I'm glad I tried the lavender + honey soda, as it was a refreshing way to start the day. This Charlotte staple is now more easily accessible for the Myers Park crowd and certainly will stay busy, so I wonder how much the nearby Caribou Coffee will take a hit in business? With Dot Dot Dot speakeasy-style bar and Midwood Smokehouse BBQ, you could spend a whole day eating and drinking around the backlot of Park Road Shopping Center!
