Verve Coffee Roasters - Melrose

This award-winning Santa Cruz-based roaster and coffee shop brand with four locations across Los Angeles County, including one on a tony stretch of Melrose Avenue. The expansive indoor-outdoor space is always full of influencers, aspiring actors and screenwriters and other L.A. stereotypes “working” on their laptops at one of the all-around best coffee shops in West Hollywood. The all-day menu here features avocado toast, chia seed pudding and other café staples, plus every espresso-based drink you might possibly want and plenty of tea-based options. Of course no matter the location—Verve also has outposts in Manhattan Beach and Arts District, as well as along West 3rd Street—you'll find a signature menu of espresso classics, nitro cold brews, by-the-cup varieties and a few comforting snacks, plus beans available for purchase, along with other home coffee staples like filters and pour-over systems, not to mention an entire system based on farmer support and sustainability.
