In the weekend you'll know you found the spot if you miss the sign by the line of people at the door. Don't be discouraged by the line as it moves relatively fast. The shop consist of straight forward coffee drinks and a small menu perfect for breakfast. Prices are standard coffee shop prices. I ordered a matcha and was quite pleased but it went down in so quickly. Ask for some honey with your match, as it makes all sorts of much better. As for sitting: there is a small area inside with tables. Plus tables outside with umbrellas or a rent. Nice to sit outside when it's cooler out or in the morning before the sun comes out. This place is a good alternative to chains. Support local places.

This railroad side coffee shops is one of my highlights from my stay in Carpinteria…read more Santa Barbara Hives is dedicated to the bees. For every purchase, they plant a Mangrove tree in Madagascar - the tree that produces a rare, sweet, and fast-crystallizing honey called mangrove honey. Their team serves up delicious lattes and breakfast items. I ordered the salted honey latte and a breakfast sandwich. Both items were yummy, but I'd return daily for that over easy sandwich topped with pesto. While they specialize in coffee, the storefront also acts as a storefront for all things honey. You'll find endless merch and tastings from all types of local honey. They also offer unique canned beverages, slices of pies, breakfast items, baked goods, etc.

They also had some pastry's that were vegan and gluten free, breakfast items and acai bowls here too. The barista was friendly as well as the staff. Inside had plenty of seating with an outside patio. I got a hot chai with almond milk and my mom got a strawberry smoothie. When the order came up it was a hot matcha not a chai but they corrected the drink quickly. It was hot but it didn't give much of a chai taste, it was more milk than anything. My mom did like her smoothie tho, organic and no added sugar. I did see some people with acai bowls, may have to stop by again and try something different.

For those who are familiar with the show Schitt's Creek, I would compare Lost & Found to Rose Apothecary. Instead of David and Patrick, you have two sisters named Susan and Patty who warmly welcome you in. While one could describe it as a 'general store,' others would think it isn't so 'general'. It is a communal coffee shop in that making that hopes to allow everyone to "come in and find themselves." The ultimate goal is to be open seven days a week selling a wide variety of things, including: -Specialty dark roast French coffee with milk -Freshly made goodies (including chocolate chip cookies, brownies, and an assortment of chocolate-dipped ginger, apricots and more) -Home decor and products (lotions, candles, fragrances) -Locally made art pieces, stationery and more! You can't help but notice the space's focal point of a gorgeous tropical-framed painting or all the local art that yells "Carpinteria!" I am truly excited to see this business grow and expand with the plans to have outdoor seating--particularly during these difficult times.

The atmosphere is also really great--comfortable, welcoming, and a nice place to enjoy a coffee and pastry. The only minor issue was that the cashier seemed a little annoyed when she poured a hot brew instead of the cold brew I ordered. That said, I tend to speak pretty quietly, so it may have simply been a communication issue. Overall, the drinks, food, and atmosphere made it a really enjoyable stop, and I'd definitely come back.

I don't know if it was because I was half awake and really needed some caffeine but this tasted incredible it was a perfect temperature, it did not taste burnt which many places do when you just get straight espresso), AND had fantastic flavor-- in fact I kind of wish I had asked about what coffee they used and I would have bought a bag of it, but I was already jumping on the road... Found this place by accident, when I passed through on Highway 101. I will definitely be back and if you're someone who is traveling to Santa Barbara, Pismo Beach or surrounding areas make sure you get off the freeway and check this place out right off Highway 101. Also the peanut butter cookie was DELICIOUS!!

Both drinks were incredibly creamy and smooth, with a rich flavor that never felt overly bitter or overly sweet. The Lucky Charms had a fun, nostalgic taste with just the right amount of Irish crème, while the Snickerdoodle Latte was perfectly balanced with warm cinnamon-cookie notes. What stood out most was how well-crafted both drinks were. You could actually taste the coffee without it being overpowering, and neither drink felt loaded with sugar like some flavored lattes do. The staff were also genuinely warm and welcoming from the moment we walked in. Great service, great atmosphere, and great coffee. We'll definitely be back to try more of the menu!

First off they gave me egg whites instead of the whole eggs (which I can accept as a mistake). The sandwich was bland no salt, pepper, or any seasoning of any kind. The chicken had a rubbery texture and the egg whites too. Added salt and pepper, not better. Added Tapatio and that didn't even help. Barely was able to eat half and that was because I was starving. Couldn't even choke the rest down n left it. The real topper was the $10 price tag!!
