Kin Coffee Bar

This beautiful San Luis Obispo August morning we were delighted to try out a brand new coffee establishment called Kin Coffee Bar, located in the heart of downtown at 847  Higuera Street.  It is an intimate venue, with a definite modern, yet vintage vibe.  We were greeted by the friendly barista/owner, starting our experience this morning on a very positive note. There are a number of very intriguing drink choices, but we decided to go with our usual latte and Americano coffees.  Both were specially prepared for us on the spot and did not disappoint.  The Americano which Sheila got was bold and delicious.  She finished the entire generous cup, which she doesn't always. It was a very reasonable $3.00.  Joan's latte was $4.25, and she described it as full bodied and with just the right balance of cream and coffee.  There are a number of seating choices including comfy club chairs and a window bench, just right for people watching, bar stools, and interesting classic chairs and side tables stocked with vintage magazines and newspapers.  It is a perfect atmosphere for conversation among friends.  They also have a variety of goodies to go with your coffee.  Joan got a raspberry almond croissant, which was flaky and fresh.  Our coffees came with a tiny buttery cookie, too.  Their coffee beans are provided by locally owned  Cacti Coffee Roasters.  We would definitely recommend that you stop in and stay awhile to enjoy not only the atmosphere but the amazing drink menu they offer.
