Best Coffee I have ever had. Yep I went there. They have nailed it with the feel of their place and the focus on quality. 10/10

One of my favorite coffee spots in the area! I like the iced latte with pistachio milk. If you haven’t tried adding a little sparkling water, give it a shot for a refreshing twist to your espresso. Also, they take their avocado toast

Huge space with lots of lovely plants and wood tones. Friendly staff and delicious coffee. Vibrant space with people reading, working off laptops and families as well. We came around 5pm and wanted to try a sandwich but kitchen closed at 3 so will have to head back to try it next

If you light quality coffee to brew at home, this is your spot. The baristas and servers are really nice and even took the time to call me (Paco) once they roosted a particular type of coffee grains I wanted to taste.

I got an iced honey lavender, it was decent, I couldn't taste very much honey or lavender, but I am also comparing it to the one I had at 11th hour coffee, which was very good.

Love the shop's design and number of plants growing in here- really felt like a place with interior in mind. Baristas were super friendly and experts at making a good drink. Tried an espresso, matcha latte, nitro... all really great. Thanks!

Just left, what a mess. As a barista myself, I know service can be overwhelming, that's not an excuse to provide shitty service. Coffee was ok, the employee who made our pour over did not pre rinse the paper filter. It was mad busy, and claustrophobic. Oh well ‍

Coffee is great. Service is exactly what you'd expect - rude hipsters. If you want very slightly less good coffee and much better service with a nice outdoor area out back check our Lulu Carpenters across the street.

What’s better than Verve coffee?Verve Coffee with Avocado Toast!I ordered the Goat Cheese Garlic toast with roasted tomatoes & ADDED Avocado to the toast! Most delicious & satisfying.This location is centrally located downtown with easy access points to get in and out easily. Ample meter parking & a free parking if u look for it.Large open & bustling space filled with people doing their own thang on the free WiFi. Lots of remote workers & tourists ducking in out of the rain.The coffee was a drip with cream! Always freshly roasted.

The place is packed for a reason. Good coffee, lots of seating, clean bathrooms, and nice background music. One of the better iced americanos I've had.

Ambiance: it's a spacious coffee shop located in downtown Santa Cruz, street or garage parking, very packed over weekend, limited indoor seating and no outdoor area Service: fairly fast although not as patient Drink: plenty choices on their regular menu for hot and cold drinks Iced Latte - *** light taste Chai Latte - **** creamy taste, recommend Price: normal price range for coffee drinks, each cost about $6
