| - Why I (initially) gave Lux 2 stars:
-Definitely not the most intuitively arranged coffee shop I've ever been to. The space offered for your 5 minute wait for your cup of coffee is cramped.
-I've only been there four times, but three of those four were unpleasant experiences. They either messed up my drink, forgot to give me my food, or served me improperly prepared (very bitter) coffee. The last time I visited (my 4th time, in total) I ordered a decaf americano, and I was pleasantly surprised. After last time, I'm going to give them another chance.
-Parking. Is. A. Nightmare.
On the plus side, they have really good dinner foods (mac n cheese) and an (overpriced) wine bar, if you're into that scene/old enough to enjoy that.
Why I updated my review to include a third star:
I visited an old friend for coffee, and she insisted we go to Lux, because she really likes it there. So, we went, and I got a simple cup of their light roast coffee (only $2. Not horribly expensive.) and was, once again, pleasantly surprised. It was smooth enough to drink without cream, milk or sugar.
It was a Friday at lunch time, and it wasn't so busy. There was room to sit down, room to talk, room to wait for my cup of coffee without worrying about stepping on others' toes.
It was my first actual /nice/ experience at Lux, and I'm happy about it.
