This was my first time at Better Buzz Coffee and I loved it. Cool drink selections, handy location, and relaxed seating. Pretty much my kind of coffee shop. I had the cinnamon cream cold brew, which was fun and tasted great, although I'm guessing it was not exactly a low-calorie life choice. read more

Bought a pound of their delicious coffee beans & an açaí bowl and left a tip . When I asked for a second spoon I got grilled. "You need a second one?" I just spent $30, Seriously?! Not the first time to experience the utensil rationing here. PS. I don't look homeless or like I'm trying to stock my fraternity. read more

I came to Del Mar to have a staycation. What a beautiful area, I was so excited to see Better Buzz by the beach. Both times I stopped by this weekend were extremely busy. For how busy it was the team was so nice and kept telling everyone "Welcome, we will be right with you" when entering inside. I loved their new carnitas tacos and their new Coconut Macadamia Best Drink Ever. When I'm in the area I'll definitely be stopping by. read more

Insanity. I am still dreaming about the best drink ever with a pistachio cream topper. O. M. G. I am a total coffee snob and wanted an afternoon pick me up, but had no idea what I was in for. Are we able to franchise this to Denver, people? I need it closer! Loved the space here too. Such a great central spot to work from home. read more

It seems some of their images and reviews got purged from their Yelp. I've once gave an updated review about a time (July 26th) where I ordered their $7.99, Ham & Cheese Croissant. It contained smoked ham, muenster cheese, on a toasted croissant. It was a tad oily (buttery) and was piping hot! Not bad, but if you think back a couple of years I would totally see this being priced at $4! Another time, actually quite recently-- October 4th, I got myself a Mint Infused Iced Coffee. I've actually ordered this before at their Fashion Valley location and LOVED IT! Although sadly, at this specific location... I did not love it. It had way too much heavy cream. What a bummer to spend my $6.49 on that. This day they were insanely packed, one guy working the bar and another at the register. There were also maybe 1-2 others working but they were behind the door perhaps stocking? I don't know if Better Buzz prioritizes speed over quality. The man was working quite fast and what I thought to be efficiently - that is until I tasted my drink. Maybe in the colder season I'll stop by and the drink will be good? But as of now I've had multiple misses with the flavors of the drinks-- them mainly being very sweet and milky. I do like that this spot does accept cash. In addition, many seats inside are filled with students on laptops. Most of them have finished their drinks and remain seated, leaving no space (inside that is) for new customers to enjoy their drinks. Which is not 100% a huge deal, but maybe over time may be annoying for others. Although, Better Buzz does have multiple tables and seating areas outside of their shop. Also...they are a 3-5 min walk from the beach! Better Buzz Coffee has smoothies, blended iced coffees, cold brews, açaí bowls, teas, lemonade, toasts, sandwiche, & wraps. The menu may slightly be on the pricier side I would say because it's closer to the beach, it has that beach price iykwim. The choice is yours if you want to spend your money here! It is a popular spot with other people, just a miss for me. read more

Love the Better Buzz aesthetic and vibe! The assortment of unique drinks is a differentiator from other specialty coffee shops. The quality of coffee is good and honestly just a simple cappuccino is worth it. The drink prices are high but unsurprising for a Del Mar shop. read more

Best avocado toast ever! Counter staff friendly and accurate. Helpful, too! Nice vibe and music.

Stopped into Better Buzz for a cold drink and a restroom break, and both delivered. The restroom was excellent--clean, well-maintained, and spacious. The store itself was just as well kept, with a welcoming atmosphere. Staff were friendly and efficient. My drink was solid, with a perfect balance of flavors--not overly sweet, not overloaded with ice--and priced fairly. Overall, a great quick stop. read more

I'll start by saying my husband and I are not coffee people at all - but we always stop by when driving down from LA to grab the hazelnut divinity, which has to be our favourite coffee of all time. Last time we were there we also got the acai bowl which had no right to be as good as it did. Even though they have a nice indoor and outdoor seating area, we like to take the food to-go and walk five minutes through the beautiful sea grove park and to the powerhouse park which overlooks one of the most scenic stretches of the beach & ocean. Such a beautiful area! read more

cassie & her team are the best :) great service, great drinks, great food! what more can you ask for??? thank you guys!

I'm a total dog lover, so I'm a sucker for places that truly accommodate pets--and this spot nailed it. They offered my pup a pup cup, which instantly won me over. The location is also great--walking distance to the beach with plenty of outdoor seating both out front and along the side, perfect for soaking in the coastal vibe. I stopped by and ordered the Hot Large (best drink ever!) for $6.79--definitely recommend. Also signed up for their rewards program, which was a nice bonus. This location is the kind of place I'll keep coming back to--not just for the drinks and beachy convenience. read more

I've been enjoying this coffee joint few times now. Friendly, fast service. Today I got simple Better Drink Ever and Better Breakfast. It could be because I was hungry after a run but the pretzel bun breakfast sandwich just became few eager bites that I gulped down. Loved that sandwich came out piping hot. Had to wait few minutes before I gobbled it down. Breakfast sandwich $10, Coffee drink $6 with tax and tip came down to about $20. Seating inside and outside. Enjoy! read more

Iced mocha at Better Buzz with an extra shot of espresso was strong with a rich chocolate flavor. The drink was not too sweet or milky. Refreshing sweet treat with a price tag reflective of an artificial coffee shop in Del Mar. Most of the seating is outdoors with just a few small inside tables. The shop was clean and the service was fast. read more

It seems like Better Buzzes are popping up all over town, which is not a bad thing since they do provide a good product. I picked up something I have never tried at the buzz: the Chile Crunch Breakfast Wrap on a a toasted wheat tortilla stuffed with a chili crisp aioli, hash brown, ham, egg, and muenster cheese. The crunch breakfast wraps was good and tasty, but I wish the hash brown would of been crispy and not mushy as it was. The aioli was flavorful, and the egg, ham, and cheese were very good. They offer little packages of Cholula for their salsa. The service at the counter was very up beat and friendly. They do need to be a little louder when they call out orders when they are ready. I did not hear them the first time around. read more

This place is so cute! Stepped inside during the rain and I was able to relax with a mocha de mexico latte and a bear claw! The staff was sweet especially Emma, Mimi, and Jazzy! Will definitely come back! read more

In a great location at the main intersection of downtown Del Mar where the Starbucks used to be. Grab a coffee and walk to the iconic powerhouse park or beach just down the street! Service was super friendly at the counter. Coffee is honestly not my #1 choice, it's marginally better than Sbux and they rely on sugary drinks to make it taste good. Decor/vibe inside is amazing though just many other locations. Suggested items : best drink ever, banana chocolate loaf or zucchini loaf (v). Cheers! read more

Wanna get Buzzed...? Better Buzz Coffee opened recently in Del Mar. Street parking is limited. There's indoor and outdoor seating. Interior space has been designed that provides great sunlight inside. The Better Buzz logo: Bumble Bee is seen tastefully throughout. Clean inside and outside, looked inviting. The staff greeted us at entry and was efficient, nice and friendly. I'm familiar with Better Buzz coffee, baked goods and products because this brand emphasizes freshness, with coffee roasted and delivered weekly to its cafes. Certified as an ORGANIC roaster by CCOF, Better Buzz prioritizes sourcing Fair Trade and Rainforest Alliance coffees. While they offer baked goods, the display case shows limited selections compared to their Hillcrest location. The menu also offers avocado toasts and açai bowls for those who want more. Lately have been obsessed with the Hazelnut Divinity oatmilk latte. The Mexican Mocha is another fav. These coffee drinks don't need an additional espresso shot, which I usually have to add at other coffee brand shops. The coffee drinks here are really good, potent and do give you a caffeine Buzz!

Cute spot. I really like the outside seating area it's super cute. The in side was clean and cozy. You have to get here early as there is limited parking, street parking or small parking lot. There is no drive thru at this location, BUT they are walking distance to the beach. The service was good. The girl that took my order was super sweet and patient. My go to is the Best Drink Ever. Can never go wrong with this drink. Thanks Better Buzz Del Mar for getting me buzzed on this Sunday morning. read more

They never disappoint. Love all the seasonal offerings and the pastries are always on point.

Absolutely loved the Better Breakfast! Paired nicely with the iced hazelnut divinity.

Great coffee served by a very friendly staff! The Manager, Devin, was very attentive. Would recommend 10/10!

Always a little bit of a wait on weekends but worth it! The BDE can't be beat and the food at this location is excellent. Freya is super friendly! read more

The people watching is worth coming here alone. Wow! If I have friends coming in from out of town I would take them here. Beautiful cars and rich people walking expensive dogs mixed with tourists . Ordered an OG Açaí bowl and it was the perfect amount of everything. This was the Goldilocks of açaí bowls. Just right. Not too much toppings and not too little açaí. Wasn't too expensive either which was nice. Sometimes a bowl can go up to 15 bucks which is outrageous. read more
