Verbena Free Spirited Shoppe is such a warm, calming spot. I had a delicious non-alcoholic soda with a light blend of THC, CBG, and CBD — super mellow, relaxing, and well balanced. The space itself is cozy and inviting, perfect for chilling, reading, or doing some light browsing, whether that’s in the shop or on a laptop. Really easygoing energy, no pressure, just a nice place to slow down for a bit.
I stopped in at Verbena because it’s fun to check out a store where you have never been before. Who knows what treasures you might discover?! First I ordered a beverage - La Verbena - it was delicious and refreshing. Then I looked around at the various bottles of non-alcoholic spirits and mocktail mixers - interesting ingredients and beautiful bottles. I think it would be fun to try a flight of mocktails to get a chance to sample a variety. I bought a couple bottles for the holidays for the non-drinking guests - I look forward to trying them myself. I didn’t get any food, so I can’t comment on that, but I certainly enjoyed looking around.
Seriously, I'm a matcha fanatic, and their preparation is simply perfect—vibrant green, incredibly smooth, and just the right balance of earthy and sweet. It’s a transcendental experience in a cup! But the fantastic drinks are just the beginning. The café itself is beautiful and incredibly cute. Think bright, airy, and tastefully decorated with cozy seating, lovely plants, and perfect lighting. It’s the ideal spot for meeting a friend, settling in to read a book, or just enjoying a moment of peace. Every little detail makes the atmosphere feel welcoming and charming. And finally, the staff is genuinely friendly and attentive. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with warm smiles. They seem happy to be there, and their positive energy is contagious. They’re quick with orders and happy to answer questions or offer recommendations, making the whole visit a breeze.
STELLAR, STELLAR SHOPPE. Absolutely lovely staff who were knowledgeable, super friendly and kind. Vibe in the shop is low-key and it's beautiful. Didn't get a chance to eat any food, but the coffee was delicious. Ordered the Cin Cin with a shot of espresso. Perfection.
I had a great experience at Verbena Free Spirited Shoppe! The staff was welcoming and friendly, and Lex did an amazing job with our drinks. The presentation was beautiful, and they took the time to explain how the Earth Day Matcha and espresso ice coffee was made, which made the experience even better. Definitely a top-tier spot—highly recommend stopping by!
