**UPDATE** This is my most favorite coffee shop to spend a lot of time in. Since the big remodel, it is even better than before! They do serve alcohol and their menu looks pretty delicious. If you are looking to set up your laptop and study, or get some work done, this is the place to go.
So many coffee shops, so little time! Finally made it to Lux and I was not disappointed! I wasn't there to connect to wi-fi but if I had been well this is the place to go. However I was there to meet a large group of people (enter shameless plug for said group here...Indie Music Meetup group) and I must say the outdoor seating was great. Big picnic tables and benches ample enough to squeeze in all 12 of us. Granted it is hot and humid this time of year and sure that wasn't great but that is no fault of Lux! Upon entering inside I realized it is a pretty hip joint and by that I mean all the local hipsters hang there. But all in all it was a good mix of people working on their laptops right down to our group of indie music fanatics. Time to order some coffee and a snack; seeing as how it was later in the evening I ordered a iced decaf soy vanilla latte and a strawberry corn muffin. I had ordered one of the muffins that didn't sell too many that day and since they don't like to throw things out I got another for free, can't beat that! Well, if velvet had a taste I'm pretty sure that it would taste like the coffee I drank. I am generally leery to try decaf as it never quite seems to taste the same or a lot of places don't put much thought in to decaf since "who orders coffee without the caffeine?" I love coffee, especially GOOD coffee and I will take the decaf as long as it is as delicious as the leaded version. Lux nailed it for me and I will be back no doubt!! I can't wait to try something else....maybe just a simple cup of coffee with cream.
