About Cafe Lu
Cafe Lu is a cafe in Santa Ana, California. It is listed at 634 S Harbor Blvd, Santa Ana, CA 92704, which places it among the local businesses of Santa Ana that residents and visitors turn to when they need this kind of service close by. Besides its main category, the business also describes itself as bar, so it may cover more than the name suggests.
Coffee in the United States is served by three kinds of places: national chains with drive-thrus and mobile ordering, independent neighborhood cafes that double as a workspace or a meeting spot, and specialty shops that roast their own beans or buy single-origin lots and brew them by pour-over, espresso or cold brew. Most open between 6 and 7 a.m. on weekdays, slightly later on weekends, and the busiest hour is the commute rush before 9. A drip coffee runs a few dollars, espresso drinks and specialty pours more, and tipping a dollar or a percentage on the card reader is customary but not required. Nearly every cafe offers free Wi-Fi, though some limit laptop seating at peak times or on weekends, and outlets are often the scarce resource.
The business lists hours on 7 days of the week. The most common schedule is 10 am–11 pm. As with most places, expect changes around holidays; the phone number below is the fastest way to confirm.

Wings are honest-to-goodness some of the best wings around. Hooters got nothing on Cafe Lu.

I recently started going to Cafe Lu and had to say a few things about it. The night shift manager Sandra does an excellent job at managing the place. She’ll greet you with a smile and make sure that you’re having a great time. Now on to my favorite part about Cafe Lu…the smoothies! If you’re lucky enough to have Silky take your order, you can always ask her for her smoothie recommendations. Silky is the gorgeous tall Asian girl there. I used to be a strawberry smoothie kinda guy, but Silky recently got me hooked on 2 others. The first is half strawberry smoothie, half lemonade. The other one is the lychee smoothie. Since Silky has such great taste, I’ll have to ask her for more of her favorites. Her customer service is beyond excellent, which I always appreciate. Because of that, I make sure to always leave her a good tip. I recently had the French fries with ranch here and they were also excellent. They came out hot and crispy. While I was enjoying those fries, I was eyeballing another customers tater tots at the table next to mine. I’ll definitely have to try the tots soon! Cafe Lu is a cash only establishment, so make sure you bring some cash, fellas! But in case you forget, t

Owner noticed that I'd been outside sitting in my van for quite a while in the hottest part of the day. He was really kind & offered me some water. To which I replied yes. He brought me 2 large cups of ice water with lids & straws. His act of kindness is extremely refreshing & rare these days. I just had to say something about it. Thank you again! I Sincerely Appreciated those waters. I wish you the best for you and your business!

Thought this is more of a cars and coffee kind of place but guess it has changed since I heard about it. The girls are in bikinis, it was kind of interesting but came for that overall cars and coffee vibe, not there fault as it’s been years since I heard of it. Just didn’t expect a strip club’ish vibe and expected better drinks. Should this be a cafe first? The totter tots was hot and crispy, limited on the menu and a bit $$$ for simple dishes. The girl that sat down seem nice, my friend tipped her and vibe changed to more hostess vibe, so this became my fist hostess cafe experience. I ended up leaving stuffed up from the smoke, so not really for me.

Came here for the first time. Tried their avocado shake and I was not disappointed. Their chicken wings was a little bit salty. Scantily dressed servers are friendly. CASH ONLY place.
