  • On my way to lunch in the same plaza, I spotted Luci's - a place I'd been hearing about lately. I decided I would stop in after lunch, and did just that. What a cute place! I love the decor and love that there seem to be lots of treasures to be found in the market area. Since I didn't do more than take a cursory glance as I walked in, this review will be for the coffeeshop/bakery only. First... the good. 1. The two women behind the counter were both very friendly and helpful, which counts for a lot at any place I visit. 2. The display case of baked good was stocked with lots of really beautiful pastries. I found myself wanting a small bite of everything! 3. Even though it wasn't on the menu, I was able to order a cafe au lait - my current obsession. 4. Seating was plentiful and comfortable. And the not-so-good... 1. The strawberry cupcake, while beautiful and dusted with really pretty edible shimmer of some sort, was dry, crumbly, and not very good. The icing tasted great but left a very strange film in my mouth - sort of waxy, oily, greasy consistency. 2. I've been advised that it is not out of the norm for a coffeeshop to hand you your cup of heated milk/foam/etc. for you to fill on your own with coffee from carafes (not so with espresso-based drinks), but I'm really bothered by this practice for some reason. Luci's is the second place in Phoenix I've visited who does this. Maybe I'm just being fussy about it, but I think if I'm going to pay $4 for some steamed milk and coffee, the least you can do is top it off with coffee for me. 3. When I'm paying $4 to pour my own coffee, I expect the last 1/4 of the cup will not be filled with coffee grounds. This happened to me today (not until I got back to the office, of course) and I was very displeased about it. Luci's is a nice little place, the employees are very friendly, and the coffee (sans grounds) was actually pretty good. I can see it being a nice place to read, people-watch, or even do some work, so it does have a lot going for it. I'm not sure I'll ever go out of my way to visit, but if I'm in the area and it comes down to choosing Luci's over Starbucks (which is just across the street), Luci's will win any day.
