Curator’s note
Verve opened West 3rd with its first Farmlevel Bar in California, a counter apart from the register where guests could buy any of its coffees by the ounce, scooped from the jars used at the opening of the 41st Avenue cafe in Santa Cruz.
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.

The Vibe
Commune Design built the room in 2015: high ceilings, I-beam posts, exposed rafters and skylights over a horseshoe bar. Leather tabletops, plywood walls and brass counters were picked to wear in with use.
