Good people at this location, friendly. Only negatives is the lack of charging places, probably intentionally so you don't sit there all day. Definitely a well-managed, well run location.

Great coffee shop to grab a quick Goutwn free treat and a coffee.

For a place that was nominated for their coffee it is disappointing the pastry’s were the only item worth paying for. The cappuccino had a weak coffee taste, with a slight sourness to the foam. Also got a latte which was dull and tastes like the roast might have been burnt. Service was below average with no care given. However, the goat cheese pastry was excellent and I would recommend.

Came here and had an excellent americano. Nice flavor and did not taste burnt like some other places. Waited a bit, but they appear to be heavy on the pour over options. I would come back.

I’m A bit of a Coffee, snob, and like my beans fresh. I ordered some beans from Verve and although I live just a few towns away, I opted to have my beans delivered. They arrived quickly ….just a couple of days after ordering. Excellent service And kept me notified every step of the way . However, I’m quite disappointed as the beans are definitely not fresh. I use the bloom method of brewing and there is no bloom With these beans. Additionally, I ordered a dark roast and these beans are more of a light medium roast… But that part’s OK. What I really count on is freshness, and these beans were old… Been sitting on the shelf for a while? Why would they send a new customer old beans? Well, at the same time, I tried another coffee roaster in the area. I was a bit disgruntled with them at first because their beans took a while a few days a week to arrive. But oh my, their beans are very fresh…..bloom nicely and excellent flavor. So needless to say, in spite of their excellent service, I will not be returning to Verve. I hope they improve the freshness of their beans.

Had a terrible experience. The staff was incredibly rude and I witnessed off-shift staff berate on-shift staff, with no consequence. I will never support this company again.

This place at atmosphere is great, and the coffee is superb. However, the avocado toast was inconsistent with other locations. It wasn't a spread but blocks of avocado that lacked more flavor.

Verve is certainly among the best in the US. Their cold brew is legit special.

Are they intentionally trying to drive customers away with this music?

Wasn't sure how to order. Greeted with attitude. After receiving my coffee. I told the guy oh shoot this isn't what I wanted I wanted it more like that coffee next to mine, can we add milk, I wasnt sure how to order. His response was "Maybe next time" I'm sorry but there won't be a next time! To me, that was a horrible and irresponsible response.

Lovely coffee shop in SantaCruz! I highly suggest trying their whiskey latte coffee. The staff is exceptionally friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere is clean, modern, and hipster.
