Kinship Roasters

I’ve been coming here for years and I am never disappointed. It’s allegedly third wave coffee 😂. Seriously the best coffee in town no matter what type of process you like best. Every drink is carefully and methodically prepared and executed. If that wasn’t enough to bring you in they have an incredible mission behind their coffee to support missions across the world.

Came in after the renovation. As a lover of craft coffee visiting from Dallas I completely understand wanting to limit your menu to move away from overly-customized coffee to highlight your beans. One of the best ways to judge a shop is by tasting their espresso, pour over, and a milk drink. What was a big disappointment to me on this trip was that after trying their pour over, which was solid, I really wanted to try just a standard cappuccino. I was informed that they couldn’t do that which is fine so I pivoted and asked if I could do the latte but without vanilla. They also couldn’t do that. I ended up getting the vanilla latte. It tasted fine but way sweeter of a beverage than I typically like to drink. Your only option if you don’t want syrup is black coffee. I was pretty disappointed

Such a fun little coffee shop with a solid aesthetic, perfect environment for hanging out with friends or family, or just grabbing a computer to study! Very calm and relaxed, and solid people working behind the counter. Super sweet and helpful, especially on hot days like today when I’m not sure what to get! We loved our time here, and after trying so many coffee shops in LYH, this is one of my new favorite, go to spots!

The employees are so friendly and will have a conversation with you while they make your drink if it isn't too busy. The atmosphere I'd calming and comfortable. But more importantly, the drinks are made perfectly! Soo good. I'll be back as often as I can. My friend and I got the London fog and a caramel/white chocolate latte. I also have gotten their Matcha latte, and it does not disappoint. Although be advised their coffee runs on the more acidic side.

Probably the best coffee in Lynchburg! This place understands different coffee brewing methods and they have a wide offering of different origin and coffee processing options.
