Awesome coffee I definitely recommend I got the honey and oats 16 oz and I didnt add any enchantments it was so yummy

I love their coffee. I have a friend close to them and whenever I visit her we always go to CupLux, it's like an unspoken rule! My go to is an Iced Caramel Latte. Quick and convenient drive thru service and the staff is always super friendly. read more

CupLux Coffee Drive-Thru - 16 Oz. Iced Caramel Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Happened to stumble across this coffee place. I've never seen it and if you're not really looking for coffee it's easy to miss! The menu has a variety of options from coffee , to teas, pastries and breakfast items. I've gone twice now and the first time I loveddd my drink but the second time around it was just okay. I did really enjoy my bagel breakfast sandwich as well, both times. I will say this is better than Starbucks and relatively quick for it to be drive through only. However, their parking lot is a bit confusing. The first time I ordered online. One side of the building is for ordering at the window while the other side is for online pickup. The signage for the lines aren't clear. I ended up driving through the regular line as I didn't see where the online ordering line branched off. When I pulled up and said I had an online order I was told to go to the other line. Mind you, both of the windows are feet apart from each other so I'm sure they see my drink. I didn't argue , went back in line and again. Still didn't figure it out LOL. They finally just gave me my drink at the regular line (that nobody else was in) and I'm not sure why they couldn't have just given it to me in the first place and then told me about the other line as a courtesy?? Other than the confusing line, I'd say this place is great for being on the go and will stop again when I'm in the area. read more

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!! read more

I always drove by wondering what this place was, decided to google it. Drove by lots more time then finally decided one morning I wanted to try their coffee. I'm not a person who drinks coffee to wake up, I drink coffee as a treat! Lol. And I order the same thing at all coffee places, a variation of a caramel macchiato/latte. Order: small caramel latte Their parking lot needs some work; pavement is cracked in a few places. I believe this cafe is a drive thru only because there's an unused second drive thru lane. That area also needs some love; maybe it could be turned into a small patio seating area. Their menu also offers more than just coffee and drinks; small breakfast items/snacks too. Downside they only offer bagel sandwiches. I'm not a bagel fan. Service was friendly and prompt. I would say their coffee is comparable to Starbucks, better than Dunkin. read more

It is hard to give a review on this one . I got 2 different drinks made completely different . One drink was very good(wife's drink) the second drink tasted like it had soured milk in it and was completely undrinkable . By the time I got to tasting it I was back on the road . I know things happen and milk/ milk alternatives products go bad and things slip thru . Based on the 1 good drink I would give a 3.5* maybe a 4* I can not in good conscience rate the second drink due to the fact that both of us believe it was soured from a bad product read more

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 read more

I tried the honey & Oates latte. I'm sorry but it was not good. I came home and added more to it for taste just to feel like I didn't waste money. Still didn't finish it. Nothing could fix it. Definitely will not order here again. But the apple cinnamon muffin, so freaking good & was warm. read more

Their drinks are amazing and their homemade caramel sauce is the best I've tried. I did order my coffee half sweet, but it's still super sweet, so have to keep that in mind. read more

Loveeeeee this coffee. The Honey and Oats over ice is my favorite and i enjoyed the blueberry muffin because its big, rustic, and comes warm Super fast and convenient and an unexpected gem read more

I'm not sure why we've waited so long visit our neighborhood coffee shop, but we've made up for it by visiting three (yes, three!) times this week. We're loving the chai and matcha lattes. I've tried the chai, both hot and iced. The convenience is great, and the staff is always friendly. read more

coffee was okay, what's really disappointing was the service, no hi, hello when i pull up , the pay is outside of the window so u literally just tap and then she hands you the drink. I wanted to ask if you could pay cash but no body gave me attention to even ask read more

I was looking for a smoothie place close by my job & came across this cute spot . I have been here multiple times in the past two months. Friendly & quick service every-time. I have tried just about every smoothie they have with the exception of the fruit explosion & the ginger mango. The strawberry banana is my favorite! I tried the bacon, egg & cheddar breakfast sandwich this morning & it was delicious! Will be back of course :) read more

Happened to stumble on this gem. Who doesn't like skeletons for a mascot?! Their smoothies are fresh and their traditional vanilla latte was more flavorful and delicious than you'd find at Starbucks. read more

It was just okay, subpar. quite underwhelming, there are too many coffee shops where I can sub 2% milk for oat milk. You can't make ANY changes to the drink you pay for or the food. The egg and cheese sandwich was cold on the inside. It's honestly not worth driving out of the way if this isn't a convenient stop. read more

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. read more

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.] read more

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! read more

CupLux Coffee Drive-Thru - Not too pretty, but it was too darn good to stick around for very long! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

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. read more

CupLux Coffee Drive-Thru - Egg and cheese - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Adore this concept and a great pit stop on the way to the airport. Coffee is overall decent, but do not recommend the nitro cold brew. It does not have the "Guinness-like" creaminess or usual cold brew sweetness. Otherwise, the other lattes were delicious read more

A trusted source told us that Cuplux has the best chai latte in Charlotte. Since I don't like coffee and I love chai lattes, I obviously had to try it. The drive thru is super convenient. It's nice to not have to get out of your car when it's cold outside. They were incredibly friendly! I know it's a drive thru, but their service was great. Our drinks were ready quickly. They offered for us to sign up for the rewards program and when we did, they gave us an awesome air freshener for the car. We got a hot chai latte and a hot matcha latte. I have to agree that it was the best chai latte I've had in Charlotte. It wasn't too sweet and the chai flavor really came through. I wasn't a huge fan of the matcha latte. To be fair, I've never had one before, so I don't think I like matcha in general. It was too earthy for what I'm looking for in a warm tea beverage. I've heard great things about the coffee as well. I'll definitely be back next time I want a chai latte! I would definitely recommend checking this place out! read more

My favorite coffee spot! I've catered them since they opened. My favorite beverage is their Dirty Chai and I like it hot!. The spices in that drink satisfies my palate. The staff is very professional and friendly. read more

CupLux Coffee Drive-Thru - Large Carmel macchiato, it looked amazing layered but I had to drink it asap - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Service was polite. Coffee was awful. First, the price they charged was more than listed on the menu. I inquired and they changed my total. Asked for americano with cream and sugar. Gave it to me with no stirrer. Looked and tasted black. Went back through line, got another, asked for stirrer stick. Coffee still tasted awful. It may be better if they give me the cream and sugar to go and I add home much I want rather than they assume. read more

Great, friendly, fast service, they even offer adding protein into your coffee! Coffee is always great

So glad the west side has this coffee gem, super convenient. The drive thru concept has me constantly coming back. There are so many varieties of coffee that you can have. Monday dollar drip coffee is my fave with a splash of the local honey. read more

The best coffee ever! Great service Love it! You know when the people are doing great job and love what they do it! 100% recomendado read more

Coffee was great and service was quick! I got the dirty chai latte and it was so good! I'd definitely recommend!

I'm not sure why it took me so long to try this coffee spot, but I've been missing out! I don't get coffee out frequently but when I do, I'm glad I have a closer spot than finding a Starbucks, plus I love supporting small and local businesses. I can't speak for their whole menu of drinks but my go-to, latte breve, is perfect from this place. Service is quick, maybe because it's still a secret, but I don't want this place to fold for lack of business, so please, check this place out for your caffeine addiction!! It's the perfect drive through on your way to work downtown. read more

3 years later and CupLux is still the ABSOLUTE BEST COFFEE in Charlotte. Their caramel latte is hands down one of the most amazing drinks in the world. We will drive out of the way just to come here. We have brought all our out of town friends/family here and every time they visit again they request it by name! I wish they had more locations just so that more people could try their coffee because I feel like it is still very underrated and doesn't get the hype it deserves. read more

Best coffee I've had in Charlotte, yet! I recently moved to NC from Florida and have been taking the opportunity to taste all the coffee shops. I loved the convenience and the espresso taste in my latte was perfect. read more

The owner was kind enough to explain what may have happened for the overly acidic taste in my coffee and asked me to give him a heads up when I'm visiting Charlotte next time to have the staff provide a better experience for me. I thought this was a really sweet gesture and it shows that they really care. I'll definitely be dropping by again next time I'm in Charlotte and try some of their other popular menus on the menu! read more

The honey and oats iced latte was absolutely delicious! It tasted like Cinnamon Toast Crunch but it wasn't overly sweet. Perfect drink for breakfast time! read more

I went with my family and got 2 coffee and 2 smoothies both of which were unsweetened

THE PUMPKIN SPICED LATTE is fresh, natural, and authentic. Not the artificially flavored crap from other coffee places. I love this place because you don't feel like you're drinking diabetes in a cup with a latte. It's sweetened perfectly. Also THE WHOLE MILK. The whole milk they use is why I drive 20 minutes out for this coffee: Creamier, fattier, & just delicious. I also love the cold brew slushee with whipped cream & caramel when I do want a dessert/treat (super sweet & delish). My only wish is longer hours so I can come by everyday after work. I tell everybody I know about this good coffee. read more

The coffee wasn't bad, but what pisses me off is when they assume that everyone wants sauce or a condiment on their breakfast sandwich without indicating that it comes with sauce. My egg and cheddar sandwich had a weird and unusual sauce on it and I took one bite and threw it away! I couldn't make out what unnecessary and unexpected sauce they put on there, but it was not good! Keep it simple! Egg/cheese/ protein/ no one likes sauce on a breakfast sandwich! I won't return! read more

This is honest to god the best coffee I've ever had in my life. And I drink a LOT of coffee. Seriously, I have no clue how you guys do it, but the reviews aren't lying. The caramel and honey lavender iced lattes are amazing, and I loved that you can buy honey directly through the drive thru. Absolutely would go back next time I'm passing through NC, I only wish there was a location up north too! read more

Amazing customer service, and amazing iced latte I had. I came here after a stressful morning, and having a PERFECTLY MADE iced latte that was so delicious made it 100x better!! The latte was not watery at all, super creamy and on the sweeter side. I WILL be returning again!! read more
