I love the coffee here and come almost every day! Today I ordered a drink that just wasn't for me, and I was nervous about asking if it could be changed. Rosa was incredibly kind, patient, and helpful. She helped me pick a different drink and had such a great attitude the whole time, even though I felt like I was being an annoying customer. Great customer service like that is one of the reasons I keep coming back. Thank you, Rosa! read more

This was the first place that introduced me to Better Buzz, which has since become a new favorite coffee chain that's one of my go-tos. It's been a while since I've been to this particular location, but it happened to be nearby when I needed a midday pickup. I decided to try the cookies and cream seasonal offering, and I found that it was sort of watery without much flavor with melted ice, and it's not like the drink had been sitting there waiting either. I also wasn't given a cookie in it until I explicitly asked for one. Overall it was just a fairly disappointing experience for a new favorite. TIP: Other locations seem more consistent, but I may just chalk it up to one bad day. read more

Wow, Absolutely terrible experience. The staff was unwelcoming, and unprofessional. They appeared poorly groomed, facial acnes and gave a very unprofessional impression. The coffee was awful, and the pastries were dry and stale. I won't be coming back. Wow read more

Just as cute as all their other locations in SD and OC. This spot has drive through and a tiny seating area inside and a couple of tables outside. Service is quick and always good. I recommend ordering online if you're in a hurry. If you love horchata, you have to try their horchata iced coffee! read more

I have to drop this down to a 3.5 stars because of the long wait at the front. As the only customer waiting inside it took over 5mins of just standing there to be acknowledged. The place is definitely geared towards app orders and their drive through. We saw the best coffee on the menu and had to give that a try since it was named best coffee, not was it not. It was like a store bought bitter cold brew over ice with very little flavor. We went back up and ordered the horchata latte which was definitely a better option. Over all I'll give it a stop if it's not busy but a donut shop coffee would be a best stop if they have any kind of line honestly. read more

Overall, great food and rich, creamy and delicious vanilla latte. Borge the coconut danish was not too sweet and avocado toast was fresh and tasty. Staff were friendly and attentive. The ambiance is cozy and casual with seatings inside and outside. Lots of parking spaces available. read more

I've been going to Better Buzz for quite some time, and I've always loved the coffee enough to make the trip--even though it's literally out of my way. I'll drive 15+ minutes in the opposite direction from work just to get my coffee here. That's how much I've enjoyed this location. Unfortunately, since the recent management change, I've noticed a pretty significant decline, and it's happening very quickly. I almost always mobile order ahead of time, but lately my order is frequently not ready when I arrive. And if I've ordered food or another item along with my drink, those items often aren't ready at the same time either. The whole process feels very disorganized. The cleanliness of the store has also become a concern. Trash cans are overflowing or have spills around them, countertops are messy, supplies aren't consistently stocked, and the overall appearance just doesn't feel like the Better Buzz I was used to. I even mentioned one day that they were out of Splenda, only to come back the next morning and find that it still hadn't been restocked. I do want to acknowledge that there are a couple of employees who clearly work very hard and are trying to keep things running. Unfortunately, it seems like they're being put in a difficult position because the location simply isn't staffed or managed effectively enough. Today was especially disappointing. There weren't enough employees to even keep the lobby open, so my drink had to be handed to me through the drive-thru window. A new employee had also started that day, and it was frustrating to see her first day be such a poor example of what the operation should look like, while a more experienced employee was left trying to manage everything on her own. The AC has also been down for quite some time, which isn't fair to the employees who have to work in those conditions every day, and it certainly doesn't make for a pleasant experience for customers. I'm honestly disappointed because I really want to continue coming here. I've been loyal enough to drive well out of my way for this coffee, but I've already started coming less frequently because of these issues. If things don't improve, I'll probably end up going back to Starbucks simply because I can't justify going so far out of my way for an experience that has become so inconsistent. I hope management takes this feedback seriously. There are clearly employees who care and are working hard--the location just needs better organization, staffing, cleanliness, and leadership. I'd really like to see this location get back to the level it used to be. read more

I've been to this location a few times and it has been good every time. The times I've ordered in person, the workers are friendly. I went today and ordered the cinnamon pistachio best drink ever and it's now one of my favorites! It was just sooo good! I ordered through the app and it was ready before the app even told me. I think I've been once where the drink wasn't the best but overall, a great better buzz location! read more

Solid visit to Better Buzz... it wasn't crowded and the drive-thru was super fast. The building looked clean and is a stand-alone. The coffee was great! The Banana Crean Latte was legit! This is worth a stop if you are close by! read more

Sorry this sucked. Very nice modern interior and friendly employees but the product is just unacceptable. Cheap beans but what's even worse is the type of Oat Milk they use here. Hot drinks come out pretty terrible. Dear staff, in case if you're reading this review, please switch to Oatly or Chiobanni brands. Sure it will cost a few cents extra per container but the drinks at least will taste better. One of the first concerns I had when I walked in this coffee shop was that it did not have any coffee smell inside. Turned out I wasn't wrong. My cappuccino wasn't good at all. Cheap beans, cheap oat milk. I will not be back. read more

I've had this place on my list to try for a while now, and I was very pleased! Love the cute theme/branding inside, although there wasn't as much seating as I would have liked. My coffee was really tasty and I was pleasantly surprised with the breakfast wrap that I ordered. Definitely adding this place to my list! Service was pretty fast as well, which is always nice. read more

So cute but also so mid :') Visited this location after a workout right next door at fort fitness, and the location is so cute, so convenient! This was mid December so you'll see I posted their seasonal items. I got a Lavender latte that tasted like an earl grey (wasn't complaining but not what I expected lol) The beverage was luke warm which also was a buzzkill (pun totally intended) Their pastries looked so cute, and their little patio was perfect for a sit down. The employee was also super friendly!! If you're in the area, give them a visit! read more

Really enjoyed this spot. Some unexpected flavor options . I got the banana coffee. Very good banana flavor while still allowing a strong coffee note with each sip. Will be back to try more of the menu. read more

Needed a nice pick me up so I stopped at the drive through around 1:30 and got the lavender honey matcha. It was so good! Not too sweet and the matcha has a really good taste. Had a nice rich and creamy lavender foam on top that compliments the matcha very well. I'm picky with my matcha, but I really enjoyed this drink. The girl at the window helping me was also very nice. read more

My boyfriend and I came to Better Buzz to try their new Fall flavored best drink evers. We got the iced maple best drink ever and the pumpkin best drink ever. Both were good, but the seasonal flavoring was only in the cold foam on top and we wished there was some added flavor in the drink itself. It was also our first time using the drive through and it was quick and easy. read more

Came by here to try their cinnamon pistachio best drink ever during the month of March with my daughter. I ordered it at 25% sugar and it was delicious! I love that it is topped with whole pistachios! I'm glad I reduced the sugar to 25% because the sweetness level was perfect for my liking !We went through the drive through and service was very quick !! read more

Good Feta Avocado on multigrain! Big enough to fill my tummy and satisfying. The avocado was generous and fresh topped with cherry tomatoes and feta cheese. I also had the Mocha de Mexico and I loved it! Light and nutty and not watered down. The cafe has ample outdoor space and so perfect on a very warm day. Service was pleasant and of course buzzy. read more

First time going and new to the area- Coffee and food were great! Customer service severely lacking. A lot of blank stares, not listening when I was ordering and acting like I was bothering them. Will try again, maybe it was a fluke. read more

Better Buzz has been on my list for a while to try. I ended up in the Laguna Hills location this morning. I ordered the cold brew with the seasonal cold foam, which is pumpkin. Yay, pumpkin... love it. It is a very good drink. The cold brew tastes fresh, and the cold foam is not overwhelmingly sweet. They have a very large pastry case that is brought in fresh everyday. There's also a food and açai menu. There's a drive-through that is very busy however they have a lot of employees and the wait is very manageable. Casual. Indoor and outdoor seating. Good service. Please come and create your own adventure. read more

If you're a coffee lover, you HAVE to try Better Buzz Coffee in Laguna Hills! I always order the Vanilla Caramel Best Drink Ever and it's hands down the best drink I've ever had. The flavor is perfect every time On top of that, the customer service is always five-star! Das and Hiro are always in such a cheerful, welcoming mood and truly make the experience even better. It's the kind of place that makes you want to keep coming back. Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area! Btw, I come all the way from Chino Hills! read more

I had no idea this place existed until I met a fellow Yelper who mentioned about this place. Thanks Steve O.!!! I didn't need to get hooked on something like this but here I am! They got me good. It was love at first sip. Service here is consistently fast, efficient, and friendly. My drinks are always ready well before the promised ready time. The drive-thru also doesn't come with a long wait even if there's a 5 car pileup in front of me. I love the variety of drinks they offer and how customizable each items are. I am looking forward to trying out all of their other drinks and food items in the coming days. The only gripe I have is their inconsistent drink quality. The caramel vanilla best drink ever I get sometimes comes with absolutely no cold foam whatsoever in it or has 2-inches of gap on top. I don't order my drinks without ice so I hope this doesn't happen again where it's just not topped up. The drinks are otherwise delicious and I enjoy them very much. read more

This is a semi regular coffee stop for us but what makes it not on my regular rotation is the sweetness. We order 1/4 for all the drinks we try and some drinks are still SO sweet. I've had to keep a log of what drinks I can drink at 1/4 sweet and which drinks I can't, so shouldn't order again. Service is usually good and the quality is good. I love that the have a kids size for hot chocolate. I will say my last visit was disappointing as we ordered a kids size hot chocolate 1/4 and kids temp. The drink was WAY too sweet and way too hot. It was hotter than my own read more

This location is primarily a drive-thru but you can order inside too; it's just very small. There is one table inside and 5 or 6 under a covered patio at the front entrance. I visited on a weekday morning where the drive-thru was constantly busy (but the line was kept moving) and few people were coming inside to order. I decided on an iced vanilla latte and an apple pie pop tart and took them to a patio table to consume. The iced vanilla latte was excellent. The sweetness took away any bitterness the coffee may have had yet both coffee and vanilla flavors blended for perfect synergy. The apple pie was like an unfrosted pop tart but the exterior tasted just like pie crust with the delicious apple filling making it a handheld pie. My minor complaint was too much ice in the latte. And as much as I'd love more filling in that pop tart I could tell it was already at maximum capacity. Staff here were very friendly with sparkling smiles and I have to mention that I was impressed by how clean the place was. read more

Cute little spot located off a busy street. They have outdoor seating on a cute covered patio. Drive thru experience was pleasant. Was greeted by Dani. She was very helpful and recommended some drinks for me to try since it was my first time. I ordered the Iced Best Drink Ever and a hot White Mocha Latte. The drinks were well made and can see why people order the best drink ever. It's so simple yet flavorful. Can't wait to try their other drinks! read more

So the coffee is food. I had the cinnamon cream cold brew. The only reason I moved this down in the ratings a little is because there isn't a lot of indoor seating and their are no outlets to plug in your electronics that I find very inconvenient. They do have a drive thru for your quick caffeine to go and the service is quick. The decorations are clean and looks very nice. If they get some outlets I will give them a better buzz. read more

I came at 4:30am and it is my first time and I ordered the snickerdoodle latte but hot and I absolutely loved it! The young lady was very helpful and I love the way the place looks from the outside, I was in the drive thru so I didn't see much but I loved what I did see. read more

OMGeeeee! What took me so long? Well I'll tell ya. I was a SB nut and I still love SB but choose to no longer give them my money for personal reasons. That's ok though. It forced me to go out and try independent small business cafes instead. I'm glad I cut that cord. We were actually headed to another coffee joint when we passed by this cute little, bright yellow drive-thru. We turned that car around so fast since I've had Better Buzz Coffee bookmarked in what seems like forever. We only did the drive thru this time around. The kids were cranky, so drive thru it had to be. Next time will be an order from inside and probably some shopping for mugs and coffee beans. The young lady who took our order was so polite and very personable. I loved how they addressed us by name. That was a nice touch and made you feel at home. I downloaded the app which works like the SB app, where you can order and customize as much as you want. She was very helpful with our questions and the app. What we ordered this time: -Lavender tea latte with oat milk and 1/2 sweetness -mocha These drinks were both so delicious. I would definitely order them again and we CANNOT wait to return. I truly appreciate being able to really customize my beverage especially the amount of sweetness. See you again very soon! read more

Made a quick stop for matcha and coffee and this place was a hit! The matcha was perfect and had a lavender cold foam. It wasn't too sweet and not bitter at all. My friend got the coffee and said it was great too. Cute little shop with lots of merch. Not a lot of seating, but they had some spots inside and out. Bathroom was clean and staff were nice! Would totally come back here. Just wish they had a little more variety with their matcha. They were pretty strict with not changing what the drink order was. I actually prefer vanilla in my lavender matchas, but like I said, it was still really good! read more
