The first time I went to Kin it was for the donuts. I watched as everyone was leaving with drinks…read more I have never been one to go to a coffee shop or tea shop for drinks. The next time I tried the Suuk (mugwort). What a culinary delight. Next time it was Hojicha. I am now a regular! I have worked my way to Strawberry Rose Matcha. The best!!!!! It isn't just the food. When you walk in you feel welcomed. The vibe is relaxed with wonderful music. All this comes together with the most incredible team. You talk with strangers while sitting on the bench. I now have my "Kin Friends". In today's world it is such an unexpected experience. Kudos to Tommy & Will for giving us such a wonderful place to just go unwind and enjoy their wonderful creations.

I came with a group of friends and family in the morning and we were disappointed that the brioche…read moredonuts were not available. We tried the mochi donut instead, and while it was still very good, it did not quite hit the spot that the brioche donut would have. The drinks we got were all very tasty. The matcha flavor was strong and not overpowered by the cream or fruit flavors and had a nice, vibrant color. The strawberry matcha latte was surprisingly the least favorite of the group--the strawberry flavor was lacking, especially compared to the blueberry one. I would definitely return to try their other options if I'm ever back in the area!

Stopped for a bagel and saw this coffee shop across the street. I normally order a cappuccino but…read morewanted something alittle larger to sip on for the long drive home. Ordered: Gingersnap Latte (5/5) No extra charge for dairy substitution! Service was friendly but also efficient. Got my order quickly. The latte wasn't too sweet and creamy with just the right amount of ginger kick. No bitterness and smooth. The drink temperature was hot, but just cool enough to enjoy a big sip before getting back on the road. Surprising, the cup is also well insulated as it was still warm 30 mins later. Glad to have found a decent cup of coffee in the area on a quiet sunday.

I ordered the fruit loops, animal cracker, and chocolate chip pillow. Service was great and very friendly. Inside there is not much seating unless you arrive early as there are lots of college students inside but I wanted my donuts to go so it worked out. My favorite was animal cracker and chocolate chip pillow. Not overly sweet or too much chocolate flavor overpowering. I also ordered a hot cocoa and a strawberry matcha. The hot cocoa was delicious. The strawberry matcha I would pass on because the milk overpowered the matcha and the strawberry flavor was lacking as well. Highly recommend the donuts!

The basics are all there but they have so many speciality donuts and I wanted to try them all! Creme brûlée, spring themed donuts of various shapes and flavors, and other delicious concoctions. Since I was meeting up with family, I didn't hesitate to buy a dozen and have a donut tasting with the fam. Favorites - creme brulee donut, Boston creme (vanilla donut with creme inside and chocolate frosting), spring "nest" with coconut and creme inside, and the glazed twist (simple but light and fluffy with a vanilla touched glaze). Also, grabbed a coffee and it was good. Need to buy a bag to take home next time.

Good coffee shop w/ cool merch…read more Had a vanilla latte which was pretty decent. The only disappointment about this place was their baked goods/food isn't made in house. The pastries were from a bakery in Los Angeles, which tells me that they were either frozen or at best day old either way they weren't freshly baked. I had a burrito which the girl mentioned it was from a local place nearby and it was a huge disappointment. With that said I recommend just trying the coffee there.
