| - I am a recent Lux convert.
I was dragged here by a friend a few years ago, before the remodel/expansion, and I HATED it here. The girl that took my order was snobby. The line was long and awkward, and I wasn't impressed by the drip I received.
Over the years I'd get pulled here by various friends, and it never failed to piss me off. There's no sign. It's difficult to find. Where the DOOR? Where do you order what? I didn't understand the craze.
Lux is esoteric. It's snobby. It's hip. And it has grown on me.
The quality the last six months or so has shot way up. Rumor is they have a new roaster, and goddamn, GODDAMN, if he isn't good. When I buy beans to take home, my entire kitchen is swallowed in that sweet smell.
Vegan donuts? Pimm's cups with real muddled fruit? Much, much better customer service, attention to detail, and expanded food/bar options? I'm impressed, Lux, I really am.
Good job.
