Came to spend some time doing work and it's a great option.
The service is so so friendly. Really only ordered an iced tea but even this was tastier than normal versions (Hawaiin black tea?). There are a ton of seating options, especially for someone like me who was looking to spend some time and found a booth with a plug (there are plugs everywhere).
The location is what I think really sells it. It's located in such an adorable plaza that affords itself so many options for studying. Parking is super easy.
One thing I'll say is that the WiFi didn't work the best.

This is literally my very first Google review - I love the Lost Bean so much that I feel like I must write a review for it! This is my go-to place for whole coffee beans. I almost solely drink lattes and make my own espresso at home. The lattes in the cafe are okay but the beans are just phenomenal. I am a dark roast person and absolutely recommend their Decaf beans and the recent 20-year anniversary beans!! Both are very easy to dial in, rich and smooth. The decaf beans have noticeable caramel taste which I love so much. The anniversary beans have all the flavors described in the package incredibly blended together, creating a very silky, smooth, balanced overall flavor and texture. It is So GOOD! I don’t usually go for something that says smoky but the smokiness in there actually makes it taste good! Not sure how long they would supply the anniversary beans and I hope they will forever! Their regular espresso triple blend is okay and harder to dial in, though.
Overall, I highly recommend trying their beans out if you like making your own coffee. You get a free cup of drip coffee with purchase of each bag of beans too. Although many times they forgot to make the free cups for me, especially in busy hours.

Everytime we go here, there is nowhere to sit, they offer this out as a free office rental space.
Where you can bring your laptop your additional screens, and spend $2 in coffee and sit there for 9 hours on a 4 person table

Great coffee, excellent service. The staff and management at Lost Bean do an excellent job, are very polite and friendly. Certainly my favorite coffee shop in OC. I highly recommend a visit!

Every time I am in town, this is my go-to coffee shop. I would like to see more sugar free Syrups/ sauces.
They got my coffee order wrong, and then when they gave it to me remade, I asked for a lid as I saw a stack of lids behind the counter. They then told me to “go around the corner to get a lid”. I had my work bag and food bag in my hands and when I went there was a guy in a wheel chair and tons of people blocking so I went back and asked again for a lid from the front, they told me again to go around the corner, I then pointed to the lids behind the counter and asked if they could just give me one because it’s crowded and I have a lot of things in my hands. Instead of handing me a lid, the guy tossed it on the counter towards me and looked annoyed. To top it all off the coffee was not even good and the food was cold. Also when I set my bag down on the one open spot that someone had gotten out of, some customer moved my bag when I came back. Bad customer service, can’t believe they can’t just give a coffee lid seeing it was extremely busy and I had stuff in my hands. I regret the tip and will never be coming back here.

I live in Irvine and frequently go to SNA, I always stop here for breakfast. Unfortunately they can't seem to cook bacon correctly, always over cooked and dry. Hope they fix it, going to Breakfast Republic for now.

The coffee is always great here. The Colombian drip coffee from this morning was smooth and delicious. I also love the pastries and food here. The oatmeal bar is so good, it's like eating an extra long cookie. I've been coming here for years and the quality and service has always been exceptional.

Their coffee is usually good and their beans are great to take home, but the food is disappointing. This sandwich was $14 and as other reviews say, had no flavor. The sausage was very dry and only tasted like pepper. It wouldn’t cost them much to add more to the sandwich or use better ingredients to make the price seem worth it.
Edit- took off one more star after finishing the sandwich.

Cute little cafe nestled in the corner of the shopping center. Very good coffee, I purchased a bag of Colombia Single Origin beans and received a free 12 oz cup of coffee. Nice and smooth, not too strong and great with cream. The breakfast burrito was okay, nothing special. It was expensive and they charged an extra $1.00 for peppers, and then another $1.00 for tomatoes making for a grand total $13.25! Great service, friendly staff and fast service. We walked over but plenty of parking is available. Seating indoors and out, but limited outdoor space.
