Destiny was great and very helpful. She answered my questions and made ordering easy.

Had a large office order and Alexa hooked us up! Each persons drink was labeled, drinks were great and everyone was super friendly!

I came in with a friend to get a refreshing drink and we were greeted by Destiny and Kaylee whom were very welcoming. I wasn't sure on what drink to get but they offered a good variety of options based on what i was feeling. Our drinks came out very fast and were so good. This is easily gonna become my new spot before heading to work. read more

Clean, Consistent, Affordable Coffee Shop! I tried Better Buzz in Vegas and really liked it so I came to the Costa Mesa location. I was not disappointed! Better Buzz's coffee is not anything too fancy, but if you're looking for a good, consistent iced coffee, this is the spot. You can get their Best Drink Ever for under $6, which is a steal in this economy. The Best Drink Ever I ordered was quite sweet, so if you prefer less sugar I would suggest adjusting the sweetness levels. The interior is clean and there's ample seating. On a Friday afternoon, I found this location to be a nice place to study at. Easy parking, yummy drinks, and quick service make this Better Buzz a place I will definitely be coming back to! read more

I stopped by Better Buzz Coffee in Costa Mesa and ordered a hot Matcha Latte with oat milk and real honey. Was it okay? Sure. Was it memorable? Not even close. The biggest issue was the texture. A great matcha latte should be rich, velvety, and full-bodied, with a smooth creaminess that complements the earthy matcha. This one felt thin and watery, lacking the depth and silky mouthfeel I've come to expect from a quality matcha drink. The honey added a touch of sweetness, but it wasn't enough to elevate the experience. The flavors felt diluted, and the drink never developed the comforting, luxurious character that makes a matcha latte worth savoring. For a coffee shop that generates so much buzz, I expected more. The presentation and reputation may draw people in, but based on this drink alone, the buzz wasn't matched by the cup. read more

Stumbled into Better Buzz looking for a quick caffeine fix and honestly wasn't expecting much. The menu is simple and straightforward, for people like me that can be indecisive. There was little to no line, and the cashier Alexis recommended the carnitas breakfast tacos when I ordered and got me signed up quickly to start earning rewards. Gotta love people that want you to win and she's so sweet. So the breakfast tacos.. These things are genuinely good. Pretty flavorful, satisfying without being heavy, perfect as a snack. I'm already thinking about when I'm going back just for those. Apparently They were running a deal that paired the tacos with a vanilla bean latte for under $10 out the door. For that price, you can't beat it. Other coffee shops should take notes on promos like this. They have free wifi for us remote individuals, good seating with great music taste. If you're in the Costa Mesa area, don't hesitate .. just get an order in read more

Good coffee shop, nice and clean. Huge parking area. I got my coffee drink half sweet as the normal sweetness is too much for me. Baristas were friendly and it's a nice place to hang out. Open daily really early and stays open later than most coffee shops. read more

Better Buzz has been my new go to spot! I love how clean it is, how friendly the staff are, and how delicious the drinks and food are! My favorite is banana cold foam with cold brew. Absolutely incredible. I also wanted to thank Moises for all the help and wonderful service. Last time I was there Moises was super patient with me when I had a very big order and even offered to help me carry my large order. So kind, Thanks Moises! Call me a regular I love this place. read more

I've only had one drink here however if a place is going to claim an item as the best drink ever it should hold up to its description. The coffee I ordered was the "banana pudding best drink ever". Which is basically an americano with a touch of milk and vanilla for sweetness and a banana pudding cold foam. The coffee was strong so it hits the buzz part and the two Nilla wafers were good. The cold foam... I tasted zero banana, zilch, nada banana flavor at all. The inside is set up okay and it's cold in there so be prepared. They have a fair amount of offerings and some cool looking merch so I'd say they focus more on the aesthetics and branding than making good coffee. They do have good pastries though which is what kept them at a two star and not a one star. The person taking orders was rather rude and not very personable. She didn't seem to care to really be helpful in explaining some of the drink items. I'd say it's a place that tries to just play on hype and not substance. read more

I wanted to give a special review to one of your employees Angel L. She was great at suggesting a drink since it was my first time coming in to get some coffee. I appreciated her kindness and patienc. read more

Quick and easy spot to get coffee - the coffee is good but can be on the sweeter side. The "best drink ever" is a bit too sweet for me, and the vanilla bean latte is just under sweetness for my liking. The service was good - the worker/barista was friendly and helpful in providing suggestions and giving realistic feedback wait times. Ambiance is as you'd expect for many coffee shops - don't expect it to be quiet. It's also very cold in there, but maybe that was just the day I went. Overall, pretty good, not sure if I'd come back just for coffee, maybe would need to give it another chance but with adjustments. read more

I'm so happy there's a Better Buzz on my way to work! I order on the app as soon as I leave the house, and it's ready for me when I arrive- such a time saver. There are so many drinks to choose from, but lately my go-to has been the iced vanilla chai latte. The staff are always so friendly and welcoming. The store is also so clean too. It's the perfect start to my mornings! Check their instagram for sticker drops :) read more

Definitely loved the coffee here! I was coming in from out of town and needed a spot that would give me what I was craving (can't start my day without coffee). the service was great even though the poor girl at the counter heard me say Dean instead of Dee so that was a great joke for the trip. the ambiance is nice but the spot in small keep that in mind. The food was a great start to our road trip as well. Can't wait to visit again when I come into town. read more

Better buzz coffee is hands down one of the best coffee chains. I came in around 1:00 on my lunch break. At the time I came in, it was not crowded. Upon entering I was greeted by staff and asked what I would like to order. After reviewing the menu, I decided the horchata latte would be worth the try. My coffee was surprisingly done very quickly. Which to me stands out as the service is quick. Upon tasting the coffee, I was even more pleasantly surprised. The coffee was perfect, you can tell the beans are not over roasted creating a nice smooth coffee flavor. The latte itself was not overly sweet, which is a bonus. There is plenty of indoor and outdoor seating offering a variety of options. In addition, the parking lot has plenty of parking, but can get crowded with other establishments. The only downside to this location is no drive thru. However, I can't wait to come back! read more

Better buzzed off caffeine to energize my work endeavors!! Drink: Horchata iced latte has been my favorite superior choice. Both times been executed well and not overly sweet! The house made horchata (cinnamon rice milk and almond milk) is paired great with their espresso. This is not fake powder horchata which enhances the drink overall in its appetizing. Food: The Yogurt bowl included honeycomb, granola, fresh berries and Greek yogurt but coconut yogurt is also an option. It was a simple yet delicious choice. Service: They were efficient and easy to go orders. I appreciated the secure and sturdy containers. Overall: ole faithful horchata iced latte for the win read more

Service was fast and they were busy but, they seemed to be well staffed. My Carmel vanilla latte was delicious. The Bacon Ciabatta is made with cage-free eggs, bacon, muenster, spicy chipotle aioli on ciabatta. I would definitely order this again. Price seems to be comparable to other coffee shops. The atmosphere is bright and energetic, consistent with the BUZZ theme. read more

This review is purely based on their pastries since I didn't order a drink. I ordered the pistachio croissant and chocolate chip walnut cookie. The pistachio croissant was light and fluffy, flaky and wasn't too sweet. The pistachio flavor was a bit faint but I still enjoyed it! I also ordered the chocolate chip walnut cookie which was absolutely delicious! The cookie wasn't too sweet and the walnuts balanced out the cookie. They give you the option of heating it up or taking it as is. Service was excellent! Our cashier was kind and welcoming. The coffee shop had plenty of seating and there is plenty of parking out in front. Would highly recommend for their pastries! read more

The time I got here there were a couple people who had ordered. I love how bright it is from the outside to cow inside the establishment. It's inviting. Soon as you enter you can see the "I got buzzed in Costa Mesa" signage and then see the merch as to go through the "live start here" aisle. It's very clean and organized. The barista (whose name I didn't catch) was very sweet and she had great customer service. Tipped her well. The music was some throwbacks during pandemic haha I thought it was funny and very divey. The attire is casual. I feel like you'll be able to work here read more

Stopped by with a friend to try this place and was pleasantly surprised! Nice clean coffee shop and friendly staff. Drinks came out pretty quickly. Pretty versatile menu. I'm pretty sure I ordered the seasonal summer version of the Best Drink Ever because it had some kind of coconut flavoring. It was so good and refreshing. Pretty strong coffee but totally hits the spot. 5/5 Overall, I'd definitely try this place again but likely a location that's closer to me! But I really enjoyed my experience here. read more

It was a busy day at work so I decided to treat the staff to breakfast. They decided on Better Buzz Coffee in CM I've never heard of them before but was up for something new and threw caution to the wind and let the girls order what they thought was best They ordered me a Sausage Egg & Cheese croissant paired with a Best Drink Ever® classic americano + signature creamy vanilla The coffee was divine! It was creamy rich and had the perfect amount of sweetness The croissant was golden and had a perfect buttery and flakey texture. The sandwich cured my hunger pangs and left me very satisfied. I also tried the avocado toast which amazing Topped with buttery avocado, crumbled feta, micro greens and drizzled with a sticky sweet balsamic, cherry tomatoes on thick-cut multigrain, the toast was substantial and I enjoyed my decadent bite I have yet to visit the brick and mortar but overall I was very pleased with how everything was as packaged presented and tasted. Watch out Starbucks, there's a new kid in town and I'm a fan! Happy Eats! read more

This review is based solely on the coffee, as it was picked up for me by a coworker. I didn't get a chance to visit the location myself or interact with the staff so I can't speak on customer service or cleanliness of the coffee shop. I ordered the snickerdoodle latte with oat milk, and honestly, it didn't do it for me. The flavor was a bit underwhelming, and I felt it could've been better balanced. That said, the menu has a lot of other options that sound really promising, especially the breakfast items and other coffee drinks. While I wouldn't order the snickerdoodle latte again, I'm definitely open to giving this place another try. I'm looking forward to stopping by in person and exploring more of what they have to offer! read more

Long overdue review for my favorite coffee spot in Costa Mesa! I've been coming here regularly whenever I head into the office, and it never disappoints. This place truly has the best coffee -- my go-to is "The Best Drink Ever" and honestly, the name doesn't lie. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, and I appreciate how quick and efficient the service is. The shop itself is bright and clean, with big windows that let in a ton of natural light -- It makes for such a nice atmosphere to sit and sip for a bit. The menu is impressively extensive, with tons of drink options for any mood or craving. Whether you like your coffee hot, iced, sweet, or bold, they've got something for you. If you haven't been yet, you're missing out! read more
