Verve Coffee Roasters
As more and more coffee roasters sprout up around Downtown and the greater LA area, few establishments offer distinguishable characteristics to make them stand out. Not the case for Downtown’s latest java retailer out of Santa Cruz: Verve Coffee Roasters.
The new coffee joint partnered up with Juice Served Here, a cold-pressed juice company which allows Verve to go beyond just serving a simple cup of joe. The two companies share the space and the harmony couldn’t be more appropriate for Downtown’s fresh, new landscape.
Unlike most Downtown shops or restaurants, Verve is not nestled, squished, or hidden anywhere. Verve stands tall, proud and is ready to tamp, pull and press your morning into liquid happiness. Seamlessly joining the two styles of beverages, Verve provides your daily jolt and vitamin dosage all under one roof. Ordering at Verve tends to go like this: coffee first, juice second, bliss third.
Specifically created for the Downtown location comes the Tres Leches Cappuccino—a blend of almond, cashew and macadamia milk. This sweet and velvety take on the traditional Mexican dessert offers a tasty espresso boost for the busy Downtowner.
Also adding to the breakfast/mid-afternoon pick-me-up is an order of one of many cold-pressed juices. Concoctions of pineapple and alkaline water, carrot and ginger, lemon and cayenne pepper are merely a small handful of fresh ingredients the Juice Served Here side of the operation has at their disposal.
Whether warming or refreshing, bitter or acidic, sweet or sour, Verve Coffee Roasters knows how to make your Downtown LA morning right.
