Better Buzz Coffee Riverside - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Riverside, California

Food -8/10 Vibes - decent not recommended for studying or doing work. (It's tooo loud and a lot going on ) but maya be give it 2 months and the hype will die down Service- decent drive thru window girls were a bit too busy having a conversation to actually pay attention to the window. Unfortunately food was wrong and we were charged double when we only ordered one of each ordered item ;( Also there's way tooo many people at the drive thru window ! We counted 5 heads just standing around and the main girl was actually working the window. read more

When I tell you I have been counting down the days to try better buzz.. my sisters has received daily updates since construction commenced. We went opening day.. or night depending on who you ask. We arrived at 3:45 am and the line was wrapped. Staff kept things very organized and energy high. We made it inside by 4:30am and were the last ones to receive the free hat giveaway. They had multiple people taking orders and a whole team behind the counters working to get through the growing line. We ordered: ham&cheese croissant, best drink ever, and the exclusive peanut butter cream. The wait was decent considering the line and the fact that it's their first day open. My croissant was sooo good that the $8 price tag doesn't sting too much. The peanut butter is subtle, we excepted more. The best drive ever - was good, but idk if it's the best I've ever had. Overall it was a very good first impression. Vibes were good, staff was very nice and welcoming from outside to inside and the place was decorated very well. I can't wait to go back! read more

BUZZING & POPULAR! Better Buzz is definitely the coffee darling of 2026 in SoCal. Each time I visit, the coffee and treats get better and better. I HAD to visit BB Riverside as it was their grand opening. I needed to try their store-exclusive Peanut Butter Best Drink Ever! Pair it with oat milk, it's so good! Furthermore, I had a lemon poppyseed muffin and a can of Liquid Death to stay hydrated. I have two locations closer to me but this spot has a special kind of vibe. It's fun, inclusive, and the atmosphere felt like a celebration of sorts. The drive-thru was PACKED, the sun was shining, but so were the polite staff! Overall, there was great line management considering this is smack in the middle of the Day street shopping hub. I opted to order inside so I can check out the shop, merch, and general customer service so I can report to the Yelp Elite Squad. A+ across the board, some of the staff were brand new baristas, but I appreciated seeing them getting trained and supported! The team worked well, my order was out in less than 7 minutes and it was BUSY ya'll. Loved their dedication! One girl scanned the whole store and noticed my table was semi-dirty, she came over and asked if she could wipe my table down! She apologized without me saying a word. I was going to just leave it be since I knew the staff were busy but they did not miss a beat, that's fantastic! The shop has merch available to purchase such as beanies, hats, shirts, hoodies, coffee bags, and mugs. Additionally, the front has canned drinks like Liquid Death and other products. Overall, the inside of the shop is comfortable. A restroom is available, just ask for the keypad code before you enter. If you're looking to eat outside, there's an outdoor patio. read more

First time here. I chose to come inside bc the drive thru was super long. That was a good move bc there was only 2 people ahead of me. Inside is very spacious and clean. The guy at the register was super nice and helpful as I ordered my drinks. The wait for the drinks was not long at all and they kept checking on my order. 10/10. Coffee is fire too read more

Whats the buzz? New coffee shop? Yes please! I can appreciate a chain, but this one in the IE was pretty good. First timer, a lil out the way from me but always in that area, I'll keep it in mind when I'm over there. Service was good, little slow for being new, so busy was expected. I tried the banana matcha. It was pretty good. I also tried the peanut butter cookie ice coffee. Also good. Had the zucchini bread and breakfast sandwich all were good. The restaurant was a little loud but fun outgoing atmosphere. cute wall signs. Overall good experience. read more

Had a chance to visit this location during its opening weekend. Although extremely busy, I got my food and drink in a timely manner. The horchata latte was delicious and light. I also had the pesto turkey sandwich. Bread had amazing texture which I liked. Music was a little loud for my taste but I did choose to sit underneath a speaker to be fair. Will definitely be trying out different drinks in the future. read more

First time coming here since it just opened up here! The line was long for the cars! I went inside to try a Carmel macchiato! It was just what I wanted! Nothing special! The employees were all very nice and friendly and moving around helping each customer to get their drink as fast as they could! The inside has been redone as it used to be a Taco Shop! The outside also had be redone and painted! read more

Stopped by the new Better Buzz in Riverside this morning and was beyond impressed! The café is spotless, with a beautiful, modern aesthetic that makes it such a welcoming place to relax or grab your morning coffee. Alfred's hospitality truly stood out--friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming with a smile. The coffee was excellent, and the outstanding service made the entire experience even better. Definitely a wonderful way to start my morning. I'll absolutely be back! read more

Love the concept and bee mascot for the business. Chili crisp wrap was good, but could be more spicy. It should come with a spicy dipping sauce. Moroccan spiced iced coffee was ok, needs to be more sweet. Friendly service and fast drive-thru. Clean and fun coffee shop experience. I'll be back to try their regular coffee drinks. read more

The decor is so buzzing cute! I love the honeycomb features and all the bee accents. The food was delicious, I got the chili jam croissant (eggs, sausage, arugula, spicy honey jam). But the coffee wasn't great, my Vanilla Latte had a strong, bitter, burnt taste. I'll definitely be back to try something else, and please add some sugar-free options! These drinks are pretty high in calories, so they're a nice treat every now and then. I would recommend to call complete orders when ready so many people standing and waiting for each part of there orders. Overall, great location and the staff were all really pleasant. read more

Love Better Buzz, I go to the one near my job in Anaheim. But since this closer to my home, I decided to go to the grand opening at 4am. Though were lots of people the Better Buzz Team handle it well and it was well organized. I waited in the drive thru line, the gentleman organizing the line of cars ensured that no other cars were cutting and maintained a good flow of traffic, and was quite communicative to us. He also gave me some food suggestion such as the carnitas egg bites and the matcha, which I ordered. My order consisted of these items: Ice Lavender Tea latte (for myself), Ice Matcha Latte, and Iced Carmel Vanilla Latte and for food the Carnitas egg bites and Carnitas egg tacos (for myself). Let me tell you those carnitas tacos are by FAR my favorite food item so flavorful and the sauce that comes with it is creamy with a nice kick to it not overly spicy but the tacos are so flavorful (I gave my mom the egg bites she haven't tried them yet, I went when she was sleep). Most of the hot food, if not all, is HOUSE-MADE, meaning it's made to order!!! So it's FRESH!!! I took a sip of each drink and they were so creamy and flavorful, the matcha not to earthy, the lavender isn't overbearing in the tea, and Carmel vanilla latte was sweet (not overly sweet) and maintained its coffee flavor. My favorite thing was the man dressed as the Better Buzz Bee he was such a vibe! We vibed and he put a glowing lightstick in my car lol. Love ya Better Buzz Bee! I'm so excited there's one in Riverside/Moval area! read more

I was invited to the sneak peak family and friends day & was VERY impressed by the service . Everyone was very friendly and helpful since it was my first time there I ordered the recommended items and really enjoyed everything ! I will be back often I'm sure (: Shout out to Gemma ! read more

Although business is thriving and there's a crowd we waited 5min. max! Ordered 2 drinks from the menu, and even ordered an extra. Speaking of the register employee (didn't get his name but has a Pokémon and corgi pin) service was 10/10...super helpful and efficient! We were planning on only 2 drinks but ended up getting a 3rd just cause of how he upsold it. Vibes and atmosphere 10/10. read more

The better breakfast sandwich was really good. The lavender tea latte is really good; however, very sweet. I will definitely get it again, but I will request for 50% less of whether it's powder or syrup that they add to it. The same thing for the snickerdoodle latte. It isn't to say that it's not good though it's just we're not used to that level of sweetness. read more

Amazing customer service! The food and drinks were absolutely delicious and exceeded expectations. Everything came out quickly and in a timely manner.

Today was my fifth time at Better Buzz coffee. Met a client there to talk over some business and to turn her on to Better Buzz coffee . While I was waiting, I had the most awesome conversation with Exie . answered all my question very friendly, very informative where she works in the company. Loved her friendliness. Her disposition was superb in the conversation was fantastic. Exie makes the experience today amazing! Then the other thing I need, there's a gentleman sitting at the table and he worked for Better Buzz and I asked him for the password for the Internet. He said, overheard your conversation. I love what you said and how LX and I converse with one another it was amazing. I just have to say the visiting manager day was awesome as well. The whole day made my day. Great. It was a pleasure. I'm telling everybody I know to go to Better Buzz in Riverside on Day Street. I pray much much much success with abundance and prosperity. Jera read more

Let me start with saying nice location the environment is welcoming with that said the drinks are not good. I truly have it a chance went twice and tried different drinks the result was the same overpriced drinks and not good at all. The matcha is matcha flavored milk, oak milk espresso watered down, I try to support the smaller businesses but unfortunately this one is not it. read more
