A French Bistro Lunch in DC: Introducing Amelie’s New Mid-Day Menu

DC has a new place to experience the comfort and charm of a Parisian bistro — now in the form of a leisurely, flavorful lunch. Amelie, known for its cozy ambiance and thoughtful French-inspired menu, is now open for lunch every Thursday and Friday from 12:00–3:00 PM.

The new lunch service highlights everything guests already love about Amelie: seasonal produce, beautifully executed classics, and dishes made for savoring rather than rushing.

To complement the menu, Amelie is also offering special Happy Hour drink pricing during lunch — including cocktails, wine flights, and the Wine of the Day. This makes Amelie one of the most compelling options for a weekday lunch in Washington, DC, whether you’re hosting a work meeting, taking a personal break, or exploring the neighborhood.

With its intimate atmosphere and thoughtful culinary approach, Amelie brings a distinctly European rhythm to the DC lunch scene.
