    Mocha Frappuccino with no whip.

    Mocha Frappuccino with no whip. I had not even taken a sip yet and the drink settled to almost half of what should have been in the Grande size cup. Next time please fulfill your portions better to accommodate the actual size. Such robbery.

    Small corner location.

    Stopped by on our way out of town last night as Dear Hubby had a Starbucks craving. He went in while I waited in the car. We'd done a lot of walking and I was ready to rest. I have been inside in the past. It's a smaller location in a shopping plaza away from the beach and the downtown area. It's not far off the freeway. Established before drive-thru Starbucks became so popular, this location has indoor and outdoor seating. Our Frappuccino was frosty and delicious; a great summer's evening treat.

    The trash overflow

    Starbucks is a known entity. That said, this isn't one of the better ones. It's too small for the number of patrons and needs a more regular cleaning. There must have been 25 coffee drinkers packed into this Starbucks this morning. The order line was pinched between the pastry counter and a rack of stuff to buy (mugs, packaged coffee, etc). There weren't enough seats, and the floor needed a sweeping. Corporate should move this to a larger location. This one is showing its age.

    Overcrowding in Carpenteria Starbucks

    This Starbucks is not only poorly run, it is dangerous to be in. The sign in the store reads they support social distancing and want only 6 persons in the store at a time. The picture tells a different story. There were 12 people crammed in this store some of who h you don't see in the Pic. They also got 3 orders completely wrong just in the time in I was there. They need a total clean out of management here.

And it's a such a cute little cafe and a quiet town, we have been itching to go back ever since, to try more of their food items and of course get more coffee :).

    I was excited to try this cafe with my friends after seeing that it had many positive Yelp reviews,…read morebut I was severely disappointed in the taste of my drink and in the service throughout our visit. Though the shop was cute, clean, and had a lovely covered patio outside, I wouldn't recommend it for those stopping by for coffee on road trips. I got a seasonal spring drink called the Irish Cream Mocha and asked for it iced. Unfortunately, it just tasted like chocolate milk. Now, I like a good chocolate milk, but not when I paid for a specialty flavored mocha! I didn't detect an Irish cream flavor or even a hint of mocha. As a latte, it was way too milky and lacked the depth of an espresso drink. Contrary to its description on the menu, it wasn't balanced at all. How misleading. My friend tried one of the craft energy drinks, and it looked pretty, but she said that it was flat and tasted kinda meh. She also got a visually-appealing soda, which apparently tasted much better compared to the energy drink. Another friend ordered the seasonal Dulce de Leche Latte, and she mentioned that it was a bit too light-tasting as a latte. That checks out since my mocha also seemed like it was missing the coffee component haha. Her latte did taste like a caramelly drink made with actual dulce de leche, but she didn't appreciate that the "light" dusting of cinnamon was more like a heaping teaspoon of it thrown into the drink. We noticed that our receipts showed a higher price than what was printed on the menus. We only found out after paying and reviewing the receipts that they charge $0.75 for making drinks iced. We weren't informed of this charge by any of the ladies at the registers upon ordering, and we didn't see any signs stating that iced drinks would incur an additional charge. No explanation anywhere. Another thing that threw me off was when a certain barista handed off the completed drinks in the pickup area. She wasn't wearing gloves, and I don't think she washed her hands in-between tasks, but she was placing the drinks onto the counter while holding them by the top part, aka the lid from where people drink! I was shocked at how unbothered she was while doing that, as if that's how she was trained, or she was never corrected.

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.
