Happy Girl Kitchen Co

Will always come here when I visit, as I live in Santa Cruz. I really REALLY love the clean yet crunchy vibe and atmosphere here, I love the serious pickling operation they've got going on (fermented foods), and they have some great gluten free and vegan baked goods that were delish, and best of all, I was STOKED to see they serve the Verve coffee, which is Santa Cruz's most supreme local coffee roasters. Loved the music they were playing, (think Riverdance meets Apalacha Rising) and the feeling that you could sit and chat or work, read or write for hours here while happily sipping and munching within the lime green walls of Happy Girl Kitchen.
