*** the Zia Latte was fire ***…read more My daughter and I stopped by Kith + Kin Roasting before a long afternoon with a doctor's appointment in Roswell back on April 8, 2026. This hip cafe is located in downtown Artesia, NM near the Veteran's Memorial. The service was nice enough and very efficient in getting orders out. Lots of seating and I liked the lighting inside... not too bright, not too dim. They sure know how to make a good latte here. The Zia Latte ($5.90 for a 16 oz) consisted of "cayenne + cinnamon + cloves + cardamom + ginger + nutmeg + honey." It's so heartwarming and delicious. One of my favorite lattes in all of New Mexico! My daughter opted for a hot cocoa ($3.60 for 12 oz) and a house-made blueberry jam muffin ($3.80). I did not try the cocoa but she said it was "so good" and they made it to her liking, kid's temperature. The muffin was fantastic. Order at the counter. Pay. Take a number. They'll bring your items out to you. Check them out along with their hours before you stop by: https://www.kithandkinroastingco.com/

Came out quickly and boy could I taste the spices in that chai! The pepper kicked me in the face for sure. Not bad just unexpected and strong. When I come back I will try something else it was just too overpowering for me. I might have asked for a remake of something else but what to get back on the road. They had a great selection of muffins, scones and breads. Ice cream too! Wish I had time to hang out.

Her taro drink, however, was a strange color and very watered down. My drink was way better. The Bulldog Sunrise is "Artesia's favorite" and was comprised of "Red Bull with strawberry, coconut, and pineapple flavors & splash of Sunny D. The drive-thru was a bit strange. There wasn't a menu QR code nearby to scan and we weren't given one either. I think there were two drive-thru lines... One young girl took our order, but she wasn't the same who came back out with our order and no change after handing her a $20 so I had to holler at her. That was just awkward. Lol. Cash accepted.

But man, did they make a fantastic hot medium caramel macchiato. The caramel was extremely creamy and rich. My almost 13-year-old daughter got to order a small Love Potion. It's an energy drink, but she doesn't get them often. I like them because they don't seem as potent as Red Bull. Our total came out to $11.68. Card accepted. It's on the way towards Cloudcroft and Alamogordo. Perfect roadtrip drinks!

We were the only ones there without food. The other couple had already eaten. Just weird. We won't go back ever.

There was free parking in their private lot. The adorable white and red shop is easily visible from Canal Street in Carlsbad, NM. Each regular cup with one large scoop costed $4. I admitted to our server that I was torn between two flavors and she stated that she could split a regular cup with two kid size scoops for me. Awesome! She didn't tell me that two small scoops was $5.50 but I probably still would've done it. While the flavors were not quite as prevalent as I would have liked, they were enjoyable. We tried: + Superman sherbet (blue raspberry, cherry & vanilla) + Mississippi mud + Coffee + Butter pecan On April 27, 2024, service was friendly & quick to get the line through as the dining area is a bit of a tight squeeze. Perfect way to end our day after a trip to Carlsbad Caverns and before state testing begins at my kids' school. TIPS + samples upon request + cash & plastic accepted Always scream for ice cream!

The restaurant is inside an old historic building with a lot of historic photos of the area and original business. We ordered the following: -Spicy mago chicken wings (5/5 stars) -Buffalo chicken wings with homemade sauce (4.5/5 stars) -T-bone steak special (3.8/5 stars). I ordered the steak medium rare and got it very rare. The steak was really tough and mashed potatoes weren't hot enough. I did enjoy the side of jalapeño with green peppers Mac and cheese that was excellent!! For dessert, I ordered the peach cobbler with vanilla ice cream and rate it (3.8/5 stars). The bottom of the pie was not cooked enough and was very doughy. The service was excellent with friendly staff (5/5 stars). If I ate here again, I would order the spicy mango wings with a side of French fries and beer from the pub. Happy Yelping :)
