What customers say

One of my favorite coffee spots in Palo Alto. Really good coffee, and they have a wide selection of beans that you can take home as well. Some good food options including their breakfast sandwich. Gets busy but they have a good amount of seating and an outdoor patio area.

Love visiting this coffee shop! Heard a lot of positive things about Verve and they are all true! Had a nice mix of modern and traditional coffee drinks. The cashier was kind of answering all my questions. The single origin Kenyan pour over was delightful. It is very popular so expect seats to be full!

★★★★★ — Daniel, 2025-02

Stopped by this vibrant, cute & cozy coffee place in Palo Alto. They also do have a variety of coffee beans for purchase & some pastries. Pastries looked good to the eye even though I didn’t give a try. Ordered a latte (with a pistachio milk) since they don’t have a pistachio latte flavor. It was good.

★★★★☆ — Sathish, 2025-07

I happened to pass by and liked the vibe, so I stopped in for a matcha latte. The drink was okay, but I really enjoyed the ambiance and overall experience. I’d like to come back to try more of their menu. There’s space to work casually, though it can feel a bit crowded depending on the time.
