For those days you want to go to Paris but can’t hop on a plane… just drive to Amélie’s Bakery.

I usually go for their pastries, but today I grabbed the chicken pot pie soup, the bacon brie & fig tartine, and an iced chai. And yes… I still took some sweets to go for later.

No matter when I come, it’s always busy, and that’s how you know Charlotte loves it.

Have you been to Amélie’s yet? If not, definitely add it to your list.

Be sure to save this and follow me as I keep showing you the best of Charlotte. 🧁

... Read moreIf you’re craving a genuine Parisian bakery ambiance without leaving Charlotte, Amélie’s Bakery is the perfect destination. Beyond their famous pastries, the menu features unique savory options like the chicken pot pie soup—comforting, rich, and heartwarming—and the bacon brie & fig tartine, which balances smoky bacon, creamy brie, and the sweetness of figs on artisanal bread. These offerings make it a standout spot for brunch or a casual lunch. The iced chai is also a refreshing partner to the sweet and savory dishes, catering to both coffee lovers and tea fans. The bakery’s charm comes from its ability to combine French-inspired culinary artistry with Southern hospitality, reflected in its consistently busy locations. Amélie’s has established itself as a cherished local institution, with four accessible locations across Charlotte, making it easy to indulge your taste buds wherever you are in the city. Many visitors remark on the warmth of the staff and the attention to detail in every dish. It's not just a place to eat—it’s a community hub where locals gather to savor quality food in a cozy atmosphere. Whether you’re a Charlotte native or a traveler exploring the city, adding Amélie’s Bakery to your culinary itinerary offers a delightful experience that evokes the spirit of Paris right in North Carolina. To truly appreciate Amélie’s, consider trying a variety of items across multiple visits: go for the pastries to start, sample the soups and tartines for lunch, and don’t leave without some sweets to take home. The vibrant, bustling vibe coupled with the delicious flavors make each visit memorable. Plus, its popularity is a testament to Charlotte’s love for rich, authentic bakery experiences amidst the city’s growing food scene.

#lemon8diarychallenge I'm excited about the changes! I don't believe in miraculous science, but consistency is key! Girl, use any creatine. Do your research, buy a small, affordable bottle to try first, and if you don't notice any side effects, then invest in a higher-quality option.
