    Sandwiches and smoothies

    This is a drive through coffee shop. It's located on Freedom Drive across from the Thrift store. I had driven by daily and always wanted to stop and take a browse of the menu. This was my first visit and I wanted a drink with low caffeine and not very sweet. Something refreshing is what I was seeking and I hit the jackpot! I tried one of their seasonal drinks, the Coconut Cloud Matcha and it was DELICIOUS. The servers are friendly. The cost is minimal and the staff are all fast! Service with a smile. I'll be back for sure!!

    Been here about four times, the first time it was amazing! Following times, my coffee always has wayyyy too much coffee grounds which makes it not enjoyable. Might give it one last tru, I really think it depends on who is making the drinks. I like the service here, this place has so much potential but they really need to look to improve the coffee machines/makers

    Great Nitro Cold Brew! Being a Drive-thru business they are already set up for success for the pandemic. Two different lanes, one "speed" lane for online orders and one for regular drive up orders. The drive thru menu is easy navigate and there are more options than your typical place. The staff were very friendly and I was in and out with my cold brew in no time. Tried two different breakfast sandwich bagels that were solid and survived a short car ride home. Overall, I need to get coffee here more often, it was a great Sunday breakfast option and super safe while we navigate this pandemic.

    Mmmm... coffee. Before starting my morning of shopping and reviewing, I popped into CupLux and got my "go juice." Quite easy and very fast. I was a little overwhelmed at the menu board but straightened up with a medium latte and hazlenut. At the window, my payment was taken and my coffee was handed over. Super quick. Delicious coffee, rich, creamy, excellent boost of energy! [Review 14336 overall, 1660 of 2020, number 2703 in North Carolina.]

    Not too pretty, but it was too darn good to stick around for very long!

    We had driven past this place many times on our way to the hospital in Charlotte, but we had not ever taken the time to stop. Today, even though Google said that they were closed, we circled on in and gave it a shot. WOW! This was without competition the best caramel latte I've ever had. Caramel lattes are usually not all that memorable for me. They're sweet, they're caffeinated, they taste like caramel and coffee. They're my drive-thru go-to when I'm not just drinking black coffee. This thing was amazing! The caramel is not over-strong, with no syrupy sludge at the bottom. There is a toasted flavor throughout that makes the whole thing feel almost warm and cozy- even though it's iced. It's sorcery, I tell you. Sorcery! Well done! We will definitely be back!

    Disappointed, again.

    I'm not sure what is happening, but two muffins and two small iced coffee drinks cost 20 dollars AND the coffee tastes like milk only. Three times we have had this happen. Quality is going down here. The service has been great, but if the quality of coffee product (the mainstay of their core business). My husband and I had to throw our coffee away twice and drive over to NotJustCoffee to get what we wanted. When we complained to the barista about the coffee, and asked for another shot, she literally gave is another shot of espresso in a separate cup for us to mix it on our own. While the concept here is great, the quality is rapidly declining that will put this business in a permanently closed status very soon if they cannot get it right. We are rooting for CupLux to win and keep them in the community but they have to step up their game. There is too much competition in the area for them to be comfortable with how their business is currently operating.

    Service was excellent; quick and friendly. Paid with my phone via cash app which was nice because I forgot my wallet. Coffee, hot and cold brew, with vanilla was delicious!

If you're unfamiliar with the area, as I was, it's hard to find, but it's definitely a hidden gem. It's located within a beautiful brick shopping area, surrounded by other places to eat & shop, but it's in a cove area which leads to a courtyard. Again, hidden gem. It's so cute & cozy. There are 2 tables inside, and a few outside, which would be perfect on a nice day. The service is great, seems to a family run business. Everything looks soooooo delicious, it was very hard to decide. I narrowed it down to a small Lobster Tail pastry, which is essentially a deliciously stuffed croissant with Italian sweet cream (my guess) with a strawberry on top. It was the best pastry I've had in a long time. I also ordered the carrot cake, which is a favorite of mine, and it was good, not the best ever, but it's ok, the Lobster Tail made everything ok. Lastly, I had the Biscoff Latte. As you know, you'll see either a Biscoff or a Cookie Butter Latte everywhere you go these days. This was my third go at a variation & maybe my favorite. They have tons of yummy pastries and a great selection of cakes. I'll definitely be back.

    This place is adorable! The pastries are beautiful and amazing. Will definitely be back here to try…read moremore.

Available street parking. The drink I got was the "Lauren" which is a barista recommendation. It is an Iced Matcha with blueberry cold foam and syrup. Delicious syrup and tastes just like a blueberry muffin! You can taste more of the blueberry flavor in this drink and is on the sweet side. Wish I could taste more matcha, just a personal preference.. so for those who enjoy matcha keep this in mind. Still enjoyed it though and will adjust sweetness next time. Will be trying other drinks and their coffee!

Imagine putting a straw through an actual cheesecake, add a little coffee, and sipping. That's exactly what it tasted like. Sweet, creamy, and indulgent in the best way. I also grabbed an egg and cheese on an everything bagel, which was solid, though I do wish it had a bit of butter or some kind of spread. it leaned a little dry. The vibe outside was great.
