The breakfast sandwiches and BLT are decently executed, but I'm REALLY not a fan of their bagels. Their bread (particularly the baguette) is fantastic, though. Note: it sells out quickly. You can still pick up your to-go order without having to deal with people. They now have a cute bookshop inside. They make their own cream cheese! Cons: If I'm paying $1.50 for an avocado add on, PLEASE don't let it be oxidized and brown and gross. This makes me sad. Parking is still a nightmare. See above about the bagels. I'm prepared for the hate I'm about to get, but I prefer Bruegger's...which is sad, as I'm sure they're produced and come in frozen. Prices have gone up, but that's to be expected. I would love, however, the option to not add on a side for less moolah. I don't want their straight from the bag chips, random baby carrots, or (somewhat icky) fruit. Depending on the timing, you may be able to get a seat. Or you may be fighting a soccer mom with 4 screaming toddlers just to pick up a to go order. Still a fan, but know what you're getting.

Around April 2026, Amelie Coffee came under new ownership. Since then, it has become one of my…read morefavorite spots - not just locally, but across all of Huntsville/Madison - to get a coffee. The interior is still clean and feels thoughtfully designed, so despite its small/moderate size everyone can find a spot that feels "right" for their needs. I've come to socialize with friends and also to read/write and regardless of the presence of other guests, I always feel the right amount of privacy and quiet. There are a few new touches that make it feel even cozier and homier, such as their choice of background noise/music (often, you can hear Bob Ross painting softly on one of the tvs) and art. There are also a few activities for kids to do, like coloring sheets. The owners themselves can often be found working behind the counter and have always treated me with warmth and courtesy. They're a younger couple who are obviously working hard to figure out ways to improve the business. I've enjoyed using my punch card. :) Their coffee is delicious and they are regularly dreaming up new flavor combinations for the season. My favorites in the past few months have been their banana pudding matcha and, currently, their latte made with fresh figs. It's so incredibly well-balanced and delicious! The syrups are made in house and it shows. They also offer a variety of freshly baked pastries; I finally tried one (a pumpkin spice scone) and it was also delightful! Perfect texture and the extra sweetness from the glaze gave it a great punch of flavor. I encourage all Cove and OXR residents to try this business if they haven't already, or try again if you went prior to the re-opening. It's honestly worth a drive from elsewhere in the city if you're a coffee connoisseur. I'm so happy to have this place and look forward to many more visits. :)

This coffee shop seems pretty out-of-the-way (to me at least -- but I'm not a local so maybe I'm missing something), to the point where I thought maybe my GPS was wrong. But it wasn't, so if you check this place out, have faith in Google maps! Lol. The signage is a little small but I promise it's there! It's near Austin High School and behind a small gas station/mini-mart. There's a spacious parking lot out front and a small patio for nicer days than the day I visited. It was super quiet and cozy inside, and it smelled great! I saw one person working on his laptop, and I'd definitely agree that this is a great place to hunker down and focus. It's mostly a table and chair setup but there's a couch too, iirc. Service was a highlight -- the barista was super kind and bubbly and eager to help with all my questions. She listened to what I liked and provided several excellent recommendations. I can't remember the exact name of the drink I got because I delayed too long between visiting and writing this review, but it was a specialty mocha of some sort, either the Smithy Special or the Beam Bonfire. I'd guess the Smithy Station as I'm not usually super into marshmallow stuff. Whatever I had, it was sweet, smooth, creamy, beautiful, and an appropriate size for the fairly low price. I'd get it again! They have small, typical coffeeshop snacks (think pastries, etc) and change up specials depending on the time of year. I'm in Decatur somewhat often for work, especially during the winter months, and this may be one of my new preferred coffee shops. Thanks for a nice first visit!
