Lost Coffee - Highlands Ranch, Colorado

Patrick R.

Stopped in recently to check out Lost Coffee after the previous spot, Festive Cup, sadly brewed its last batch. Festive Cup was a great place and will be missed. Lost Coffee is just as good—if not better; they opened up the space, added more tables, an in-house coffee roaster, and more. By the time I left, the energy in the room was buzzing. And not just from the caffeine—though that certainly didn’t hurt.

Ordered a regular drip coffee and a White Mocha. The regular brew was smooth, full-flavored, and perfectly balanced; not too bold, not too light. But the White Mocha was easily the best specialty coffee drink I’ve had in years, if not ever!

If the Ark of the Covenant were around today, it could possibly hold the Ten Commandments, manna, and a handful of these roasted beans + the recipe for the White Mocha.

I also appreciate the care and craftsmanship they put into their drinks—something that gets lost (pun intended) in the chain coffee world, where sugar often outweighs the coffee itself.

Highlands Ranch needs more locally owned spots like this, and we should be supporting them.

Moses wholeheartedly recommends Lost Coffee…this is how coffee should be done.

This place serves some of the best flavored brew in town, and bonus—it’s their own distinctive blend, with rich notes that will leave your taste buds singing! My husband is a huge fan of their drip coffee with a spot of cream, and I can’t get enough of their sugar free vanilla breves with cinnamon on top. Their outdoor seating offers spectacular views of the Rocky Mountains as well. The parking can be tricky at times—especially on weekends—given their close proximity to the popular Sportsbook Bar & Grill, but the bustle simply adds to the fun energy surrounding this shopping center. I must give a shout out to all the baristas who consistently welcome in patrons with a warm smile to match the drinks they serve. Syrups are made in house, which means better ingredients for you! The pastries are fresh and fluffy, while a vintage pop up shop sits in one corner, inviting customers to browse while they wait for their drinks. Strongly recommend giving this place a try, you won’t be disappointed!

Coffee so good you’ll drink it black!! Serious coffee lovers and snobs will be happy. Everyone is welcome; lots of group meetups and tete-a-tete convos. Be a good guest — buy, tip good to support!

I used to come to Festive Cup; it had its charm but I warmly welcome the new direction! Great job!!!!!!

Huge space indoors with lots of comfy chairs & outlets. Great place to work. The coffee is also phenomenal. It's not overpowered by the milk and they make great latte art!

Finally a proper coffee roaster and cafe in the area. I can usually tell if a shop is going to be good by checking the menu for Cortado. Lost coffee is that and then some.

I have enjoyed their Littleton service station in the past, but it was a bit out of the way for me. I am excited to have this local business in the bubble.

Welcome to highlands ranch, lost coffee. Coffee was amazing, I got the cortado. The seating is a work in progress and I look forward to seeing the final setup. First time trying lost coffee and the flavor was smooth. Fast WiFi.

Happy to see another Lost Coffee location pop up around town! This space was so much bigger than I expected when I saw where it was located. Tons of tables and space to sit and sip or work while enjoying some local roasts for the day. The staff was very knowledgeable and explained to me how a large coffee company with a Star in its name has been overcharging me for an iced flat white when in reality that is just an iced latte. The more you know!

The coffee was delicious and perfectly brewed, I enjoyed the bacon breakfast burrito, my wife had a tasty morning bun, and our kiddo enjoyed a large parfait. Prices were what you would expect these days, nothing crazy or outlandish.

They also have a small corner dedicated to a local clothing retailer including old vintage pins and buttons. And I believe once a week they host trivia here, I think there is a cover charge for it but it includes snacks and maybe drinks?
