Such a beautiful spot for a coffee shop. They have a ton of options on their menu. I actually didn't know that they had smoothies but will definitely be trying one next time. We got the best drink ever and the vanilla bean latte which were both delicious read more

Service was amazing. The gentleman knew their stuff and we're very helpful and fun. We were meeting and dancing in the coffee shop great vibe!!!! thank you for making our La Jolla visit. Amazing. read more

I popped in today when I was on a walk with my friend and our babies. I love this location because it is super open and cute. It is also in a prime location. As always, Better Buzz did not disappoint. I got an iced hazelnut divinity 1/2 sweet and it was SO delicious. If you've never been to Better Buzz before, their drinks run sweet, but you can easily order it 1/2 sweet or even 1/4 or 3/4 sweet. I didn't get any food this time, but I can attest their food is delicious too. Nancy was the worker who helped us and she was amazing. I always love Better Buzz. Go grab a coffee and walk down to the ocean because whether you're a local or a tourist, it's a great way to spend the day. read more

This was my first time to this coffee shop. My second time to La Jolla. This was a very good find. I didn't try any of the pastries or food although they did look very yummy. However, I did have the very best cold brew that I've ever had. It was a cinnamon cold brew that I know wasn't a skinny version and may have had quite a bit of sugar, but it was worth every sip if I ever get back to La Jolla this is a must stop. read more

Cool little store. Food wasn't expensive, relative to area. Eggs were microwaved and sandwich was a little greasy, but food still tasted good. Everything is served in plastic takeout, even dine in. Ready quickly with good service. Whole store is completely open air with a big garage door opening. read more

After a sunny afternoon at La Jolla Cove, I was desperate for a smoothie or latte. Happy that Better Buzz has both! I got the pink dragon (pitaya) smoothie & although it wasn't as sweet as I would've liked, it was still refreshing. Tasted earthy/healthy in a good way. My bf got the coconut buzz (blended iced coffee) & it was sooooo good I couldn't stop sneaking sips from it. If I could I'd try everything on the menu, they all sound yummy. read more

Cute little coffee shop that has non-caffeinated options for kids too. Hubby got the Moroccan iced coffee, which was delicious. Deducting a star because I asked if the matcha was sweetened and they said no, they added a vanilla powder but could hold it, but my drink still tasted super sweet - must not have been ceremonial matcha. Had I known, I would have just gotten one of the fancy coffee drinks read more

Good place for coffee in La Jolla! I got the so called "best drink ever" which was pretty solid. I prob wouldn't say it was the best coffee I've ever had, but it was a good afternoon pick me up and it was nice and sweet, since I usually like my coffee to be on the sweeter side. read more

Had a patient cancel on me, so I took the chance to finally check out the cute coffee shop across the street from our office. I know they have multiple locations, but this was my first time trying it out. I only ordered a latte since I had already eaten breakfast. It was pretty good (it wasn't super foamy) but still solid. The shop itself is very cute and trendy, with fun merch featuring their logo and slogan, which adds a nice touch. The staff was friendly, and even though things were moving a bit slow, they got my drink out without much of a wait and kept the energy buzzing. The atmosphere and welcoming service made it a great overall experience. I'll definitely be back--especially on those mornings when I need a little extra pick-me-up before work! read more

Better Buzz is easily one of my favorite coffee spots in San Diego. The coffee is consistently great, the vibe is modern and energetic, and it's a perfect place whether you're grabbing a quick drink or sitting down for a bit. The drinks are creative and well made, and the food is surprisingly good for a coffee shop. Everything feels high quality and well thought out. The staff is friendly and the service is always quick even when it's busy. It's the kind of place you keep coming back to because you know you're going to get a great cup of coffee every time. Definitely a go-to spot for me. read more

Great seasonal drinks! Friendly service perfect for out of towners (we're from LA) thanks Tom!

Pretty pricey for the size of the matcha, but it was delicious ! I got the orange matcha and it was about $7 for this very small cup. I thought it was good, but the price to size ratio just seems too extreme for me to come back regularly. There are other matcha spots with better value! The cafe itself was very cute though. read more

Oh! We were pleasantly surprised to find a good coffee shop right around the corner from our hotel in La Jolla - we a stood in the short line and then ordered some pastries and cappuccino and a doppio macchiato - the pastries were pretty good - a croissant and a morning bun - the cappuccino was good and strong and much better than the hotel coffee in the lobby or the maker in the room of course - the doppio macchiato was nice and short but tasted overdrawn which was a bummer - it's fine I just threw it down the back of my throat like a shot lol - I probably could have had it remade but suddenly they were super busy and crowded with like 25 people in line - it's fine- like I said, threw it back and then focused on my croissant - definitely come here and don't drink the lobby coffee lol read more

Food was good. Service was TERRIBLE!!!! The Caprese sandwich, bacon ciabatta, spicy ranch chicken wrap and turnkey pesto were fresh, tasty and delicious. Service was DEFINITELY lacking as every single employee did not appear to be happy to be working, no smiles, no acknowledgment snd no eye contact when they WERE forced to have to make contact with a customer. The place was PACKED as the very popular pancake house next door was extremely crowded so this was the only alternative within walking distance. Also, be prepared for the cashier to shove the debit card reader in your face when it is time to include a tip as she did so to me and every single customer I observed while I waited and waited and waited some more for my food. The girl making coffee was TERRIBLE as she was VERY rude and short with EVERY single customer. My order came out one item at a time which forced us to start eating at different times And finally, the only guy working behind the counter was bad. He was clearly overworked, short and had no customer service skills. He appeared to become agitated when I asked for a status on my smoothie. It had been fifteen minutes and I noticed that customers who placed their beverage orders after my order, were being called to pick their orders up from the counter. I mentioned this fact to this male employee and his exact words to me were, "we are busy. It will be ready when it is ready". I waited a few more minutes, he finally grabbed my smoothie from a small window leading to the kitchen, slid it across the counter without saying a word and turned to start doing something else within arms reach. I stated, "thank you" in a loud but appreciative manner and this dude did not bother to acknowledge me even after I had just spent over $80.00 on four sandwiches, one smoothie and two small sodas. I visit La Jolla often as I truly love this area but as for my family and I, this was the last time we visit this specific restaurant. Never again! read more

This is a small half-open cafe found in the La Jolla Cove area. It has a nice, laidback vibe. Service was quick. After I ordered my drink, I got myself water and went to the bathroom. By the time I came out, my drink was already done. I ordered an iced matcha tea latte. It was sweet, creamy, and tasted strongly of matcha leaves. In terms of caffeine level, I don't think it was that strong (relative to other matcha lattes I've had), but overall my brother and I really enjoyed the drink. I would come back. My cousin and her partner ordered a blended iced mocha coffee. They said that it was good but that it tasted more like chocolate cake than coffee. In fact, they started referring to their drink as chocolate milk instead of coffee. read more

Ordered: Best Drink Ever (~$6): classic Americano with signature creamy vanilla Aya's take: I've been wanting to try Better Buzz for a while and finally stumbled on one of their locations. It's super cute and open-air concept which makes perfect sense for sunny San Diego. The Best Drink Ever was honestly solid. Is it the best ever? Probably not but pretty good nonetheless. The Americano is delicious and the vanilla is not overly sweet. Overall, it was silky, sweet, and smooth. Great try! read more

Had a great experience. Sometimes when a coffee shop branches out the coffee suffers. This place seems to do a good job of keeping the quality of the coffee drinks pretty well. Not the same as a small coffee roaster, but pretty good. The baristas were great. Very friendly. Awesome setup with an open garage door style so nice place to be when the weather is good. Overall solid coffee shop. read more

The interior is really cute. Nice and open with seating outside and some inside. The service was also great. The drinks were pretty good but on the sugary side- we couldn't finish the drinks. The Crispy Chili Wrap was delicious but a little small for $10. The Better Breakfast sandwhich was really tasty but needed a bit more filling in my opinion especially for how much bread there was. Overall, pretty delicious! read more
