"Verve in Manhattan Beach is the perfect crossover between serious coffee and laid-back surf vibes. Excellent beans, consistently great espresso, and a space that makes you want to slow down — even if you absolutely didn’t plan to. It’s the kind of place where your coffee tastes better because you’re a few blocks from the ocean. The atmosphere is bright, casual, and effortlessly cool, with a steady mix of locals, laptop warriors, and post-beach caffeine seekers. Baristas know their craft and keep things friendly without the coffee-snob attitude. Pro tip: Grab your coffee to go and walk toward the beach — Verve + ocean air is an unbeatable combo, and suddenly your day feels very put together"

"My favourite coffee place in Manhattan beach. It’s accessible with a couple of parking spaces near it. The beans are good and delicious and the coffee hits very well. They have variety of non-dairy options for the milk. They have delicious breakfast pastry and sandwich options as well. It’s very relax ambience that is modern but minimalist."

"Loved this place! The atmosphere is really nice and relaxing ~perfect for a coffee break or catching up with friends. The music was great and added to the cozy vibe. I tried the Cinnabon roll and it was absolutely delicious, soft and fresh, a perfect match with my coffee. Definitely a spot I’d come back to when in Manhattan Beach! ☕️✨"

"I ordered an Americano but it was the espresso that truly impressed me. Rich, smooth, and deeply satisfying. The avocado toast was equally memorable: the tanginess of the pickles matched well with the creamy sweetness of the avocado, and the generous amount of black pepper added a nice kick. The staff were friendly and welcoming, making the whole space feel relaxed and inviting. A lovely cafe experience overall."

"A hip little coffee shop located in a community plaza. This shop has limited seating for both inside and outside seating, but that’s okay because most people take their orders to go. The baristas are welcoming and friendly, offering fast paced service. I ordered the caramel latte, which was smooth and blended well together. I loved the coffee foam art work."
