Café des Deux Moulins Cafe

The café where scenes from the famous film "Amélie" were filmed, now a pilgrimage spot for fans of the film from around the world; simple decor largely unchanged from the 1990s. More of a nostalgic experience than an exceptional café, worth a short visit mainly for those who know the film.
