Service is quick and the folks behind the counter work quick. There is plenty of seating and even had chairs outside for this unreasonably warm (and rainy) day. Plus - they have REAL CUPS! Such a great little perk then always drinking out of to go cups. Feels real homey.

Kinship is one of my favorite coffee shops in Astoria. This location is a bit further for me, but the ambiance here is amazing - large open space with ample seating and lots of light. My favorite part - the park is close by as well. Great place to hop on in and do some reading, get some work in, and grab a delicious cup of cold brew or latte. And yes, they do have a bathroom if you're wondering.

I quite like this shop! They have cuppings of their espresso every monday, that I haven't gone to yet but I love the idea. I've tried a decaf oat flat white, a tea, and their "Winter Tonic." Amazing! The winter tonic was really really good, even with decaf espresso. All of the baristas have been very kind thus far and I loved how spacious and cozy the interior was. Will definitely be coming back.

Keepin it real out here in Astoria. Went into this cafe randomly cause I needed to drop a deuc3. Ended up trying the latte and staying for an hour on my laptop. Great cafe to get work done. Something slightly off about the vibe there but couldn't pinpoint it, still a decent experience overall. Neighborhood cafe but still feels kind of transient, will probably visit again

Astoria is blessed to be the home of Kinship Coffee Roasters. In my opinion, they are top 3 in all of New York City. The quality of their coffee is top notch. They know exactly how to dial in their shots and they have a wicked pour over machine. I don't know how they do it but their beans and roasting are incredible. I also buy their beans and grind them up at home for my Chemex coffee. Their baristas know how to steam that milk! It's such an important part of coffee and they nail it. Big ups to Kinship. Buy your friends and family a bag of beans on your way out--they'll thank you for it.

Down to earth vibe in this coffee shop with communal seating inside. Some outdoor seating available. My pour over coffee with almond milk was refined and quite good. I had my first ever everything croissant with cream cheese inside. The service was friendly and efficient. I'll be back to try more of their coffee and baked goods.

I recently popped into Kinship Coffee to get some studying done. It seems like I wasn't alone; other folks (as in one other person and my friend) were also hitting the books. However, there's a one-hour time limit, which is a bit of a bummer if you're planning on a marathon study session (though I'm not sure how strictly they enforce this since we didn't stay that long). On the plus side, I definitely appreciated the free WiFi. It made staying productive a lot easier. That said, I did end up with a headache, which I think was due to the strong scent in the air. It was a bit overwhelming. Overall, Kinship Coffee has a nice vibe for a quick study session, but be prepared for the time limit. Will definitely come back to try their drinks though -- seems like people typically have good things to say about this place!

Ordered: Iced Latte (~$6): with lavender (75¢) and oat milk (50¢) Aya's take: I really like this location of Kinship as it's close to Astoria Park, has indoor and outdoor seating, and most importantly - the coffee is bomb! An Iced Oat Lavender Latte is my go-to order at most coffee shops and I have to say, Kinship did it so right. It was creamy and rich with just the right amount of lavender. Absolutely loved it and will be back when I need a caffeine kick and find myself back in the area.

Whenever I need a good walk, I end up heading to this location of kinship coffee. The cafe is spacious, and has some great baristas! I really enjoy their chili cheese danish and croissants - has a nice kick. Staff are pleasant and sure know how to make a tasty decaf, which isn't always achievable.

Like fancy coffee? Addicted to caffeine? Visit Kinship! I've *only* been here mornings (and many times), so I can't comment on how the cafe is later in the day. But if you're here early? There's usually free seats (including on their patio) and plenty of natural light. If I were a cat, I'd curl up on the floor with an espresso. Besides espressos, I love their pourovers and cortados. Recommended if you're a fan of either. Credit accepted. No loyalty card, sadly. But even without one, I'm still loyal to them! FYI: there are at least two Kinship Coffees in Astoria - this review is for the one near Astoria Park.
