Curator’s note
Verve started as a beachfront space in Santa Cruz, and this room at the start of Manhattan Beach's downtown is its first beachfront cafe in Southern California.
The Coffee
Verve still roasts coffee by hand in Santa Cruz, where it began, and buys through Farmlevel, its direct-trade program that pays producers premiums for quality.
