I was looking for a neighborhood joint that wasn't a chain and I found one with Lux.
It's a neighborhood coffee in the truest sense. You've got all your regular characters - dude who looks like Jesus, hippie chick in her cool hippie skirt, aspiring artists (one overweight hipster even wearing a beret), couples pulling up on bicycles, old guys reading the paper. Truly local people with a sense of silent comaraderie - you just KNOW not to be yapping on your cell in there.
You can feel comfortable and feel like you can disappear for a few hours. Good, solid espresso drinks, free WiFi. If you live in the area, you should definitely be a patron and support this local spot (as opposed to Starbucks down the street on Lola up the street).
I dig it.
