After noticing the Dutch Brothers Drive-thru coffee place that opened up on Central and Camelback, I was taken by surprise to notice that Lola Coffee had opened up about a block from it, and another two blocks away from Lux. I'm pretty serious about my coffee and so I was excited to check it out. Right as I walked in, I was amazed at the amount of space and light that filled the room. Their pastry selection was pretty good too. I opted for the orange olive oil cake and a beverage called the Matador, which is basically a mocha with cinnamon on top. Eager for my coffee (which is roasted on the premises), I sat at one of their super comfortable couches only to find that their coffee is SUB-PAR. The beans were either over-roasted or the shots were not pulled correctly. I was disappointed but returned a few days later to do some work and give them another chance. The second time around, I encountered the same problem. Burnt-tasting espresso shots and a dried out tart. I have come to the conclusion that either their espresso machines are not calibrated correctly or they just don't know how to do espresso. If you end up there, go with the French Press, but again, be wary as their beans might just have roasted a little too long for anyone's liking.
