Verve Coffee Roasters

After 6 days exploring Carmel, Monterey, and surrounding suburbs this was the perfect shop to end our coffee tour on. Verve is always solid, but the style, cleanliness and flow were ON POINT here. And the holiday blend they're pulling made for the perfect oat latte with honey. Wish they had some of those beans in stock so W could bring the experience home! Wish this was my neighborhood Cafe because it's perfect. 5 stars! Also 25 cent up charge for alternative milks is super reasonable.

Great service, informative helpful and welcoming. And the mocha is excellent—I have the highest standard for this drink and I assure you it delivers the right moderate sweetness and full chocolate flavor not being chalky at all

thought it was a bit expensive at first then opened my breakfast sandwich box and it was the LARGEST SANDWICH I HAVE EVER SEEN (dino the otter palm pal for scale) and its actually delectable. i think ill feed my grandchildren with this sandwich. and the pumpkin matcha latte actually tastes of real pumpkin

Chai lattes are really good 👍 we came here twice. The cookies are awesome. They made kid’s lattes as well. Stop by if you’re in the area!

Verve Coffee Shop in Santa Cruz is a true gem! From the moment I walked in, I was struck by the warm and inviting atmosphere. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable, eager to help me choose from their expertly crafted coffee drinks. And the coffee? Absolutely phenomenal! Rich, smooth, and full of flavor. I was blown away by the quality and care that goes into each cup. The shop itself is beautifully designed, with plenty of natural light and comfortable seating. Whether you're a coffee connoisseur or just looking for a great spot to relax, Verve has got you covered. Five stars isn't enough - I'd give it ten if I could! Keep up the amazing work, Verve team!
