    Amazing! Can not say enough good things. Coffee and food is delicious, the plants are lovely and there is a sitting area to get work done

    Can't not say enough good things! The food and coffee is delicious! The ambiance is lovely, place to get work done and be around plants. Service is friendly.

    Selva is nestled inside a nursery, and it's such a refreshing place to relax among the plants, orchids, succulents, and beautiful flowers. They have a great selection of drinks, coffee, lattes, matcha, and more, as well as a few pastries. The seating is scattered throughout the nursery, with many tables tucked behind lush plants and hanging greenery, giving each area a bit of privacy instead of feeling crowded. We really enjoyed the calm, relaxing atmosphere.

    3.5 Located in a nursery - perfect matching. Compared to the other location, this on had a more energetic vibe. I was there on a Sunday afternoon. There a DJ and the music was entertaining but loud - too loud to have a conversation in the coffee shop. And the red light disco bathroom was.... interesting. My heavenly hibiscus was less flavorful than the other location. On its own - 4 stars. Compared to the other - 3 stars.

    Amazing seating area. Very friendly staff and honestly delicious drinks!!!!! I would come back over and over again

    Trust Fund Kid
    Mallory M.

    Selva is a hip and modern plant nursery, and coffee shop in one. The space is open, airy, and bright. I went on a Saturday and there was an in person DJ playing music. It had a fun and youthful vibe. I ordered the "Trust Fund Kid," with matcha and oat milk. The drink was yummy, not too sweat. The cold drinks come with small crushed ice. Very limited food options, mainly pastries, burritos, bagels, and fruit bowls. I saw some croissant sandwiches in the fridge near the self serve drink section. Not sure if those were menu items or if they make the menu items fresh from behind the counter. This would be a nice place for a first date, or friend meetup. They sold little trinkets around the shop, such as silly planters, candles, matches, enamel pins, stickers, tote bags, etc.

    Iced Funny Business in a Matcha Latte

    I love how it's all so colorful & pink. I got the funny business in an iced matcha latte which was delicious. If you look for matcha, that actually taste like matcha instead of being too sweet, I definitely recommend this place. The girl, Avalon, who helped us was so sweet & she was very quick, so there was no wait as well. 10/10!

    Awesome new coffee shop inside the Terra Bella nursery! Easy to park, across from the shopping center. Great pastries and coffees served in beautiful botanical design. I love everything! So spacious, so many tables separated by plants and more plants. Looking forward coming here often!

    the okie dokie drink with espresso
    Itay P.

    I really like the creative names for all the drinks. I've tried the Okie Dokie, funky business, quick question, love bomb, and quenie and they were all really good but my personal favorite was the okie dokie because it's sweeter due to the mocha. Carina was very helpful in helping in telling me what's in each drink and she was very nice and energetic. The atmosphere was really unique, they have lots of cool things to but that aren't just drinks like little trinkets and cold food and drinks. Overall a really good spot for some fun coffee and matcha drinks and I will be back.

    Funny Business Matcha

    Best matcha I've ever had!!! Such a cute place. The barista Avalon was so nice and helped us out. Will be coming back

    Lovely gifts to buy.

Instead of treating customers with even basic courtesy, she was annoyed that anyone was there. A simple question was met with a nasty attitude, and the interaction left us feeling completely unwelcome. I saw her speak to other customers in the same manner, so it wasn't just us. Unfortunately, the coffee wasn't any better. It was poorly made, tasted burnt and bitter, and wasn't worth finishing. For a coffee shop, that's the one thing that should be done well. There are plenty of other local cafés where you'll be treated with respect and get a much better cup of coffee. Only draw is the bunnies, who I really hope Samantha treats with more care and kindness than she does her customers; I honestly am concerned for their wellbeing after experiencing how Samantha treats people.

We each got to order a pot of tea, so we decided to order 5 different ones to try out more flavors together. The ones we picked were: -Jasmine orange oolong - Coconut milk green tea - Earl grey lavender - Vanilla cream -Strawberry rose champagne oolong tea My top two favorites were the jasmine orange oolong and the coconut milk green tea. The only flavor that none of us enjoyed was the strawberry rose champagne oolong tea, so when it came time for refills, we switched it to the rouge provence. For the food, there were four finger sandwiches: chicken breast, smoked salmon, cucumbers, and chopped spinach. We all liked the chicken breast one the most, and felt like the cucumbers and chopped spinach could have been combined into one sandwich for a more balanced flavor. For sweets, there was the seasonal scone, fruit tart, macaron, and donut. I loved the scone with the butter and fruit preserves, as well as the fruit tart. The service was polite, but a bit slow and we waited a while before our food arrived. There was only one person who was serving the entire afternoon tea area, so it's understandable that there's a longer wait. All in all, I would definitely come back for another afternoon tea experience!

The pastry I had was incredibly moist, flavorful, and fresh and not dry at all like you often find at coffee shops (like the Coop) The gentleman working the register was also fantastic. I wasn't familiar with all of the baked goods, and he took the time to walk me through the options and explain what everything was without making me feel rushed. That kind of customer service goes a long way. Between the fresh pastries, great atmosphere, and genuinely friendly staff, I thoroughly enjoyed my visit and will definitely be back.
