Holy crud, the matcha sesame tea was so so so delicious. I will DEFINITELY be coming back for this drink. It’s so hard to find places that even offer black sesame. Such a great addition to Santa Barbara, especially with their lack of Asian shops/restaurants. Their mochi donuts were good too. They were out of brioche donuts by the time I got there, but I’m excited to try them next time!! Also, very cute decorations, had a great ambiance with kind staff :)
This shop really provides the community and care that a small business does for the area. The team is honest about their day-to-day circumstances and appreciation for the customers. Repeat customers get the satisfaction of watching a business grow and thrive. The doughnuts are delicious and drinks phenomenal. The wait can be long but that is testament to the consistent quality and care. (This is going ro be one of spots I miss the most from Santa Barbara)

This is a wonderful place that makes truly exceptional donuts. Both the mochi and brioche donuts are wonderful in flavor and texture, very well thought out combinations and clearly made with love, care, and meticulous attention to detail. The line is long but well-deserved and totally worth it for such a special product! Their customer service is also excellent - you’re met with a genuine warmth and politeness that’s a breath of fresh air these days. We love Kin!
