The Lost Bean has a nice vibe, and the espresso is smooth and rich, just like I like it. The place is cozy, but it can get crowded sometimes, and service can be hit or miss depending on when you go. It’s a solid spot if you’re looking for a good espresso but nothing extraordinary.

The coffee was pretty good, it tasted almost perfectly extracted, more on the side of over extracted. The lavender syrup wasn’t too strong in flavor or sweetness, it really balanced out the espresso. My rating is lower most mostly because of the food. For the cost of the food I I was expecting something with more flavor. Everything was extremely bland, even the made to order scrambled eggs. If I didn’t have the condiments that they provided, Tapatio, it would’ve been even more disappointing. All the food was just extremely bland. The area is super cute and very kid friendly. There was plenty of parking in the morning. The staff wasn’t rude, but they also were not welcoming. It seems like a couple of them were bickering between each other, which happens, but keep it in the kitchen where it’s out of earshot from your customers. Would I come here again? Yes, but I wouldn’t go out of my way for breakfast and coffee, possibly just coffee.

Cute little coffee shop with a fair amount of seating both indoor and outdoor. One of the few places where you will find yourself able to find a seat. Prices and coffee is good for the area - with friendly staff to boot
