    Great service ..both gentlemen working were fast and attentive. I had their horchata latte. A fave for sure. Lobby was busy but still a lot of seating available.

    This location of the chain has a large parking lot at the rear of the building and also a drive-thru. The interior is surprisingly spacious with half a dozen tables, a long counter, and several cushy chairs. There is also a large patio out front, facing Chapman Ave. Recently, I stopped in for an afternoon coffee and pastry on a weekday. It was a hot day so I ordered an iced vanilla-caramel latte and chose a pistachio croissant from their pastry case. It was a quiet time of day and most seats were empty so no problem finding a table. The latte was great. Both flavors of vanilla and caramel were detectable and the coffee was excellent. The pastry was okay but very dry. The filling was a tasty (but, sadly, minimal) pistachio frangipane. The outside of the croissant was sprinkled with chopped nuts that sprayed all over the table with each bite = messy! I'm probably making the croissant sound worse than it was but let's just say it wasn't the best croissant I've ever had. The latte was a 5 and the croissant a 3, so an overall 4 experience.

    I have been driving by Better Buzz Coffee for several months and finally had the chance to check it out. First the stand-alone building has lots of parking in addition to the drive-through. The interior was clean and spacious. The staff were very polite and welcoming. I had a generous-sized medium, drip Ugandan coffee and a tasty pistachio croissant. Both were good and will motivate me to come again try some more of their extensive food and drink menu (for a coffee shop anyway).

    I don't usually write reviews like this, but this experience really missed the mark. Customer service was some of the worst I've seen at a food spot. My family stood there for about 5-10 minutes without even a simple acknowledgment. No "be right with you," nothing. When we finally did get help, it felt like the staff wasn't very familiar with their own menu. Basic questions turned into a struggle, which made the whole ordering process frustrating. To be fair, the food itself was decent and the drinks were just okay. Nothing terrible, but nothing that would make me want to come back either. Unfortunately, the service completely took the buzz out of what should've been a fun stop. There are too many good options out there to deal with that kind of experience. I won't be returning to this location. Decent seating inside and outside but very dirty

    I got a snickerdoodle latte, 3/4 sweet. It was great! This location is interesting. It's off a busy street. There's a parking lot behind the building, but to get inside you have to almost walk through the drive thru to get to the front of the store. Clean inside. I ordered online and my drink was ready when I arrived.

    I absolutely love this Better Buzz location, and I visit many throughout Southern California. My favorite part of coming here is the incredible customer service I receive from Helen every time I stop by! She truly makes this location stand out from all the others. I really hope Better Buzz knows what a gem they have in Helen! Keep up the amazing work, Helen!

    As I have become a regular at this place updating my review -- their drive thru is convenient but also quirky in that it feels as though they have a gun to their head to get your drink out in a specific amount of time. Good for service but also one time I pulled up to the window and they made me back up to the order speaker (even tho no one else was there) bc I think there's sensors or something timing drink making time. I personally feel as tho it is not that deep, but perhaps they run a tight ship. Anyways their drive thru also usually pisses me off cuz they make u drive past the window and wait at the end to bring out ur food like how is that efficient / I don't mind waiting for 1 more minute at the window to get my food. HOWEVER today i had a positive experience bc this guy Liam took our order, that guy is a whole ass vibe. Protect that man at all costs.

    Glad to have a Better Buzz closer to me now so I decided to come check it out. There is parking which is very nice! Super clean inside and lots of seating inside and out. I'm really enjoying their best candycane drink right now so I will be back for this. I decided to work from here in the am and I was able to find a table. People came in and out. Great coffee shop!

    Happy Grand Opening to Better Buzz Coffee's newest location in Orange! I visited late on grand opening day. They were offering free stickers and reusable cups for the first 200 customers or while supplies last. Parking: There's a medium sized parking lot in the back. Finding a spot can be a hit or miss. This location also has a drive thru. Ambiance/Environment: They have a large space inside with plenty of indoor seating. Very clean inside. I love the quotes on the walls. It's perfect for fun photo opportunities. The theming is on point as well. It does get busy in the morning. Their drive thru line can get long, which makes it difficult to get a parking spot and getting out. Service: During my first visit, the cashier that assisted me was nice. I called 20 min prior to my arrival to check if they still had any reusable cups. The worker over the phone told me they still had some. Unfortunately when I arrived, they ran out of reusable cups, but they still had stickers. I jokingly asked for a discount on my order instead, and the cashier took me seriously and tried inputting a discount code lol. I didn't get a discount, but I appreciated the effort. Drink: I got the Snickerdoodle Latte during my first visit. This is considered one of "Buzz Favorites" according to their app. It was definitely sweet, and the cinnamon flavor came through. They also offer fun seasonal drinks. I visited again to try their Maple Best Drink Ever. This is their classic americano with signature creamy vanilla and topped with maple cold foam. The cold foam was okay; I didn't taste the maple flavor. The drink itself was light and not too sweet. Pricing: I'm not surprised prices are a bit more than average. They do offer coupons and promotions through the rewards app. You receive a free drink for downloading their app after your first purchase. I'd most likely visit occasionally when they have a promotion/coupon.

    Drive through
    Shad A.

    Decided to try it, bc I've heard great things about it, plus there's always a line so I thought, sure why not. The drive through was kind of hectic , but it was the weekend (morning), so it was expected. We ordered multiple drinks to try, and It underwhelming; Not sure if it was made watery for us or they placed too much ice, but it was very diluted. Felt like I went to a 7/11. I'll give it a try again, maybe it was just that day, so I'll give it a benefit of a doubt. I hope it's better next time.

    Yum

    Today is their opening day! Hooray, so before I take Santiago Canyon I get to get some of my newest favorite coffee location ! Talking to the really cool manager named John, let me know quote "our beans are sourced with care, Make sure that our guests experiences are felt, heard & appreciated" The ambience is extremely positive and fun.

    Candy cane best drink ever iced and butter breakfast sandwich
    Brittney E.

    This coffee shop is going to be a hit for the neighborhood! It offers a beautiful clean space inside and outside. The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming. They were also knowledgeable to help you decide on what to order. The candy cane best drink ever - seasonal drink was a surprisingly way better than I thought. I didn't know how I would like this combination, but I loved it! And the coffee is strong! For food, I tried the butter breakfast sandwich, which has an egg, harvati cheese, bacon, arugula, garlic, aïoli, all on a brioche bun! It was both tasty and filling Bonus they also have a drive-through!

    Banana pudding best drink ever!!
    Neusha N.

    Love this place! My new fav spot for sure. I tried their coffee at my children's school, Oakridge, and knew I had to have more. I went the very next day and tried the most amazing drink that I've ever tasted "Banana Pudding Best Drink Ever!" And YES it is. It reminded me of Magnolia's bread pudding in NYC but in a delicious beverage. I also had the chili crunch breakfast wrap which was delicious! Also must try the Avocado toast and Cinnamon Pistachio drink. Overall an amazing variety of tastes and flavors. Love love

No matter where you go, mistakes happen especially when overwhelmed with orders. Customers are "usually" unfair when things aren't perfect. A simple request to fix an order may take additional cooking time (never long enough to complain when your problem is being fixed). Being unreasonable is the customers fault. Saying," You'll never come back." gives little reason to work with you hoping to re-establish you customers faith. It would be YOU who loses.

The pizza did not resemble a traditional margherita at all. It was overloaded with cheese, had barely any sauce, and was covered with large tomato pieces and basil. It honestly just didn't look appetizing or balanced. I respectfully brought it up to the front at the end when no one was around because I simply wanted to provide feedback. I was told that this is "how all margherita pizzas are made," which I found a little insulting and dismissive considering a traditional margherita is actually very simple and sauce-forward. At first it sounded like they might offer a refund, but then I was told they could only offer a gift card because "if they refunded me, they'd have to do it for everyone." That response didn't make much sense to me. I wasn't looking to argue or make a scene, so I just left the pizza there and moved on. Friendly staff, but the food quality and how the feedback was handled left me disappointed enough that I won't be returning.

It's just such a bummer when you pay $15 for a sandwich and the quality is just not there. I'm writing this in hopes of management seeing it so they can improve. I love this place and it's usually a nice treat for me for the week I look forward too so I hope they can get their sandwiches back up to what they use to be. Also the secret sauce is fire. I loveeeee it.
