Lapoș is a commune in Prahova County, Muntenia, Romania. It is composed of four villages: Glod, Lapoș, Lăpoșel and Pietricica.

The commune is located in the eastern part of the county, 46 km (29 mi) northeast of the county seat, Ploiești, on the border with Buzău County. The rivers Cricovul Sărat and Nișcov have their source nearby. The county road DJ235 connects Lapoș to the Sângeru commune.
