Verve Coffee Roasters
833 S Spring St, Los Angeles, CA 90014, USA
Editor's Review
Santa Cruz's Verve Coffee Roasters was on the house plant tip way before other cafés. With locations throughout Santa Cruz and a spot in Tokyo, their first landing in Los Angeles came to DTLA in the form of a plant jungle. Don't question the maintenance of the 30+ plants that line the entrance walls and ceilings to this Spring Street café, taking you to an oasis of freshly brewed coffee and juice.
The interior space itself is a clean, chic continuation of what the roaster has already been giving the Bay Area since 2007. A mixture of light woods, industrial lighting fixtures, and cutting-edge brewing equipment are to be found in most of their locations, which proves to be a sophisticated contrast to their rugged, sandy surf origins. In addition to providing a reliable menu of espresso drinks and rotating seasonal brews, Verve takes their tea and juice game seriously, too.
Next to an extensive menu of Rishi teas you'll find an even longer juice menu that you can customize for flights; it's easily the most popular and most photographed menu item. Grab vegan and non-vegan pastries from a selection provided by locals Superba and Erin McKenna and stop in on Thursday for coffee tastings.
