I enjoyed a lovely Saturday morning exploring aisles of vintage items. Vendors were pleasant and…read morepersonable. The only thing I didn't appreciate was the high price for a lot of extremely used items. For example, there were items that were clearly boy gently used, but priced as if they were new!! I needed up purchasing only one shirt that I couldn't pass up. However, I enjoyed window shopping with locals.

The CLT VTG, Charlotte Vintage, pop up (one day) event was really good for NODA and Charlotte. It…read morebrought a group of vintage dealers under one roof, Amelie's Annex, where customers could peruse through their offerings. Additionally, the building itself added nicely to the vintage mood as could be expected from the owner of Amelie's. Each vendor had a unique and distinct theme of merchandise so there was a purposeful variety, which gives two thumbs up to Amy H. for thinking ahead about customers' needs and bringing this concept to Charlotte; this type of gathering is more common in bigger cities, so it is refreshing to see it here. Items ranged from old Americana, Atomic '50s house-wares and lighting, clothing, art, to Chinoiserie furniture, and more. The event had such a huge turn-out that the ample on-site parking did not suffice, leading to some minor issues in the parking lot. Rest assured that this site does have ample parking, but this event received attendance that exceeded expectations, which is a good thing. Perhaps for future events the vendors could park in the rear, as I noticed that they had parked near the entrance. They should really have unloaded near the door, and then moved the vehicles to the very rear, as what happened was a bit inconsiderate to the patrons. But this was the only real problem with the event's organization, which is amazing for a first effort in the Queen city and very professional. I'm looking forward to more of these events. Maybe I'll camp outside overnight for the next one.

In fact, when you get down to the last sip, you are still drinking delicious chai instead of a sugary syrup (I'm talking about you Starbucks!). It was served hot which is great because at other places it is only luke warm. If you get a punch card, your 10th chai is free! Parking was pretty easy although the lot is small so keep that in mind. Friendly service. This place is great!

Throughout the middle of COVID they made it easy to phone in orders, have been really active on social media and even had curbside pickup! Now they're back open to a limited number of shoppers and continue to go above and beyond for their customers. Highly recommend if you're looking for a gift or something special for yourself.

The book prices are particularly good and make it easy to take a chance on an unfamiliar author or genre. The café serves very good coffee. On this visit I had a cortado, which was strong, smooth and well made. The staff were friendly, helpful and attentive without being intrusive. What I like most is the atmosphere. During my visit I saw families browsing books while enjoying a drink, friends meeting for coffee and people having informal meetings. It feels like a place where you can spend time rather than simply stop by. The balcony seating looked especially appealing for reading or quiet study, with a good view over the café below. A place with plenty of character, and one I will be returning to again.

From the Owner Aubreys' super sweet and charming personality to the entire vibe of her shop, it's a must visit. I was in the Market for work meetings and stopped by to visit her shop. She has so many amazing smells and scents here that I knew I was going to buy something. You have to lol. I noticed a candle sitting under what I thought was just a lamp so I asked her what it was and she said it was a candle warmer. She explained to me that it melts the wax slower and the candle lasts longer. She also hand pours all her candles and makes the scents!! I was sold! I purchased a candle and a candle warmer and it's legit my new favorite thing ever lol. I always love supporting a small business, but this one is extra special to me now. Thank you Aubrey for such a great time with you and for this fun new addition to our home!!!

It was such a great atmosphere and I had such a nice time picking out my scents and decorating my candle! Aubrey was so nice and helpful! She gave me honest advice on my scents and helped me achieve what I was looking for. She was also just great to talk to, would check in every now and then but also let me get in my zone. The whole thing was 25$ which personally I think is a great price for a good quality candle that you get to customize yourself as well as decorate, And the container is reusable. Highly recommend 10/10 experience. Great little thing to do alone or with others!
