This coffee shop is one of my top five favorites in the greater Huntsville/Madison area. My husband and I have been here many times in the past year. Pros - Cute location - Cozy atmosphere - Amazing Bagels (I recommend the cheddar chive) - Lots of great breakfast and lunch options, and breakfast is served all day. The food is great. - Good service (most of the time)* - Great coffee - I think they have rewards points through square - Good visual menu. - Self-serve water - Indoor and outdoor seating - They have upstairs seating for special events - No paper cups Cons - I wish they had a few more latte flavor options, but the flavors they have are really good. - *The customer service is great most of the time, but the staff can sometimes be easily distracted by socializing with each other, and they forget to bring you things you order sometimes. I'd say they're actually 4.5 stars, but I round up for Yelp. The cons are very minor because overall they're really great and their food is really good. They have the best avocado toast of any coffee shop in the area, and I love the monsignor croque sandwich. read more

Great upscale casual atmosphere, nice outdoor seating area, and delicious options to make your coffee or tea just the way you like it. I had a lavender matcha latte made with oat milk - order the matcha latte and add 2 pumps of lavender syrup. It was so good! Hubs was happy with his mocha. I love that they are on Tradebank, too! read more

Lux Bru - Drinks menu - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Madison, Alabama

Lux Bru is a chic coffee house with seating both upstairs and downstairs. Lux Bru serves up, great coffee drinks, but we found the matcha latte mediocre, as it wasn't mixed well, nor was it served extra hot as requested. The standouts were definitely the small plates. We had the shrimp and gouda grits and the avocado toast. The grits were creamy and cooked just right and the flavors were delicious with just the right amount of heat and spice! Nice portions too! Great place to break out the laptop, grab a brew and a bite and enjoy the morning or afternoon. read more

3.5/5 from me. I so wish half stars were an option -- I like the concept, the interior is beautiful and comfortable, and the service was sweet and lovely, but for me the product just didn't meet my expectations. Lux Bru is a new coffee shop and hangout space right next to Terrame in Madison. The somewhat unremarkable brick exterior hides a beautifully and tastefully (if perhaps a little bougie -- it's not LUX bru for nothing, I suppose) decorated interior. Cozy and comfortable armchairs, traditional tables and chairs, and a view of the spacious upstairs loft greet you as you walk in. A coffee menu includes traditional drinks as well as specialty creations that change frequently, as I found out, somewhat to my disappointment. I'd seen they were offering a peanut butter cookie latte a few weeks ago but didn't see any sign of it when I visited. They also have a cafe menu with some upscale and creative offerings, like a dessert blackberry risotto or ricotta toast. Some standard coffeeshop baked goods (muffins, bagels, etc) are available too. You can walk up to the counter and order. The two girls working on Wednesday when I visited were very pleasant and helpful. Sometimes I feel a little out of place in artsy, fancy, ~fashionable~ establishments, but they were nothing but welcoming. I enjoyed tucking myself into an armchair and people watching while my order was prepared. Despite being fairly busy, they got my drinks and muffin out quickly. For me, the coffee sadly missed the mark. I will provide a HUGE caveat, though: I'm one of those people who likes a very sweet drink. Every coffee shop has a different style -- some do the dessert-y type drinks that I prefer, and others (and I suspect Lux Bru is among them) go for a more traditionalist, very coffee-forward vibe. That doesn't make it bad; just not to my preferences. The abuelita mocha I had just wasn't chocolatey enough for me. I couldn't really taste chocolate at all, myself. Mostly just bitter, but decent, coffee. The $5.50 price tag I felt...okay about. It's not unusual for me to pay $5-6 for a fancy coffee, although the portion size for the price was a little small, in my estimation (5.50 for 12 oz). However, some of that $ goes, I'm sure, to outfitting and maintaining such a nice hangout space. For what it's worth, my coworker said she enjoyed her vanilla lavender latte that I brought back to her. Lastly, I ordered a double chocolate chip muffin to snack on. It was also $5, which is pretty high for a small muffin that wound up being pretty plain. It was a little dry, but a quick nuke in the microwave back at work helped the chips melt which moistened the cake some. It was fine, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was store-bought, and I probably wouldn't get one again unless I was really craving chocolate. I dunno. I am interested in trying their other wares -- a picture of a grilled cheese panini with tomato soup on Yelp seriously had me drooling -- so I may come back to give that a shot. The coffee is sadly not a fit for my tastes, but if you're a coffee purist who enjoys nice service and a comfortable space to hang out, work, or study, this spot may be a great fit for you. read more

Beautiful coffee shop! The staff is friendly and knowledgeable about the menu! Enjoyed the coffee and pastries! I always enjoy stopping in.

Love the vibes in here. Calm, relaxing, air conditioned, has outdoor seating with both shaded and unshaded spots. I had an iced americano because they were out of cold brew and I wouldn't have changed a thing. The espresso was delish and they made my drink perfect. Will return! read more

Absolutely amazing in all aspects! Coffee, food, atmosphere and staff were over the top. Can't wait to go back!

Croque Monsieur was AMAZING! The only negative thing I could say was the attitude from the barista/cashier. I went during a time when there was only one customer in the store who was working on their computer, but the barista just treated me as if I was bothering him?? Not very friendly, and when I had asked about coffee flavor options all he said in a very annoyed/monotone voice was "the regular flavors" end of convo basically.. I didn't feel the urge to "bother" him anymore lol. Idk it was strange. I'd definitely go back just for the croque monsieur (I'd give it 6 stars by itself if I could) read more

Lux Bru - Croque Monsieur - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Madison, Alabama

The wait is entirely too long. 25 min for an iced coffee!! They need more than just one barista.

I could cry because of how much I love this place. We were in town visiting Alabama A&M and my boyfriend found this spot because I love all things coffee and Black owned. This place did not disappoint. The space is beautiful and well decorated. The service was spectacular (especially since I asked for something off menu). The music was at the right level for quiet conversation. I cannot wait to come back! read more

I love this cafe. Great atmosphere, music, comfortable seating, friendly staff. The shrimp and grits are fantastic. The matcha was a very strong for my taste but good. I like coming to work here, it's real lowkey. read more

Visiting from out of town and wanted to try something local. Due to circumstances out of their control, they were understaffed. Monica was amazing as she was running coffee and food by herself. I had the croissant and it was fantastic. Cute, local spot with both indoor and outdoor seating. read more

Excellent menu! A thoughtful take on everything that leaves the kitchen. Terrific bakery. Wonderful staff and service. Very sad to hear that they may be closing. read more

This place is absolutely fantastic, I'm so glad I got a chance to stop by. The decor is very eye catching, and the food/coffee is phenomenal. I'd suggest stopping in if you get the chance! *try the chia seed parfait, I was amazed at the taste and presentation. read more

Lux Bru - Salmon and Salmon & Gouda Grits, chocolate muffin - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Madison, Alabama

What a lovely place to grab a bite to eat! The shrimp and grits are the best I've had here in Huntsville! I'll be back!!!

I traveled from Louisville, KY and instantly fell in love with Lux Bru Cafe! From the time you walk in, you are met with a luxurious atmosphere that is clean and calm. The staff at both the register and kitchen were all friendly and talented. Tyshayla cooked some of the best salmon and grits that I have ever had! Andrew was amazing at making my "Honey Bee" drinks and his courtesy toward me was stellar! Special shoutout to Monica, who ensured that I was accommodated and recommended the best food EVER! I'm already planning a trip back to have a full weekend of the "Lux Bru Experience"! read more

My friend and I ordered a vanilla latte and cortado when the place was empty with only one group waiting to get their order. It took 20 minutes to get them and when we did they were both room temperature. read more

Food is horrible. Coffee beans are stale. We were expecting a nice "luxurious" meal, but the only luxury was the interior design. It's a nice Instagram cafe that can't make grits or hashbrowns taste even remotely tasty. Bleh. Seriously. We tried a second time to see if we caught them on an off day. Nope. This is one of the worst reviews I have ever given. I normally love cafes or find them so-so. This one is particularly bad and there are hardly any customers. read more

Great food, a nice drink menu and quick service. I definitely recommend this cafe. The cafe is clean and has a great ambiance.

Coffee was cold, they only oat milk as an alternative milk, and they advertise a chia seed parfait but have no fruit for the top. Customer service is abrupt and unfriendly. Definitely a different place than what I've experienced before. read more

food was really really good!! definitely wanna come back & try more! only complaint is the "worthy is the lamb" church service music, would've been 5 stars otherwise!! updated non religious playlist would perfect the establishment & make it open/welcome to absolutely everyone. otherwise, super cute place! read more

Great coffee and friendly service. The ambiance was modern and fresh. Will return on a visit.

Food is pretty good, I've been in here 2 times within an hour of closing and have gotten "we just shut the toaster down" or "we have already shut the kitchen down" I could understand if the kitchen was serving elaborate dishes but this is toast and soup.....If you close at 4 and someone comes in at 3:30 you should serve them. read more
