I was in town visiting a friend and she took us to Lux Central. It was a great atmosphere. I had the Margarita it was tasty and not too sweet! My friend had the espresso martini and I think I can say with confidence that that was the best espresso martini I've ever tasted!! We also got coffee drinks to go that were also amazing! If I make it back to Phoenix in the future I will make sure to try some food because the menu looked great! Definitely stop in to Lux Central if you are in the area, if you're not, make the trip!!

So this was almost a perfect experience. My initial interaction with the front counter and while I was asking questions was cool. But then when I went to order my food, the young man definitely had an off putting attitude. Like many people in the reviews have said; it's this "too cool for school attitude". It's unfortunate how one interaction can definitely throw the rating off. I was happy that even though he told me that breakfast was over; there were still brunch items on the lunch menu. However, the young man with the hat in the back? He had good energy. He was very friendly and helpful. The food was overall good but the pancake could have been a little bit warmer. Bacon was good. Like other people have said, the front room is too loud. I would say it was overall a positive experience, and I will definitely be back to try it again.

I’m visiting Phoenix, from Northern California, in town for the two day Metallica concert. I was wondering what to do around here on the day in between sets. I wanted to have a good, light breakfast and some coffee at a special spot, so after a little online searching I decided on Lux. I arrived just two or three minutes before breakfast service ended and the place was PACKED. A really cool dude weaved through the crowd and pulled me over to bar, saying he would take my order there because he didn’t want me to miss the breakfast. The breakfast and coffee arrived quickly. I have never been to any restaurant or coffee shop with such great staff before, this blows my mind. On top of all of that, the breakfast sandwich was simple, but probably the best I have ever tasted. The coffee was great too. I am really understating how good that sandwich was.. It was just what I needed after a night of heavy metal. I also got an espresso martini. I’m not one for these types of drinks but it was so damn good. Every time I visit AZ, I am floored by the friendliness and quality of the people and businesses.

Flew into Phoenix to visit a friend and this was close by. It's a little confusing inside only because they have such a great space and just one register, but the staff is super friendly. Smiles all around and I overheard multiple staff members asking people if they've been helped and what they're waiting for. On top of that, when they took my name for my drink, the 2 who spoke with me made sure they called me by my name. I'm not used to it, but it's a touch to be great with service. Their cold brew was great black and had great flavor. It's not watery, it's not a weak roast, and it's not packed full of any flavors that outweigh any others. Great danish too

Really cool unlabeled spot. Great iced coffee and delicious breakfast, although I was bummed my eggs were burned. It was a little confusing when we entered because a barista told us to not order with them at the front but to go to the bar at the other counter.. then that bartender told us to go to another room in the back and order there. The guy that served us was very nice thankfully but it shouldn’t be confusing to order food and coffee. I would definitely come back next time im in Phoenix!
