Café des Deux Moulins
The scene
The Montmartre brasserie where Amélie waits tables is a real, still-trading café, its long zinc bar and mirrors much as they appear on screen.
How to visit
An ordinary working café open daily for coffee and a bite, so come for a drink and a look rather than a tour; it gets busy with fans at weekends. It's a short uphill walk from Blanche metro.
