The service was amazing thanks to J.J. She went above and beyond to make my daughter feel special during her first time dining here. My daughter ordered a Nutella croissant and noticed it was a little cold. J.J., who happened to be passing by, overheard us and immediately offered to warm it up with such joy and a smile. She also kindly offered to clean our table. The food is delicious, but what truly makes me want to come back is the smile this employee put on my daughter's face. read more

If I died and landed in coffee heaven this would be the place. Service was a 10/10 employees are very welcoming and awesome. BIG shoutout to Celina, she might've made the best iced coffee I've had in my life. Highly recommend checking this spot out you won't be disappointed. read more

Better Buzz Coffee Costa Mesa - Vanilla latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

I've only had one drink here however if a place is going to claim an item as the best drink ever it should hold up to its description. The coffee I ordered was the "banana pudding best drink ever". Which is basically an americano with a touch of milk and vanilla for sweetness and a banana pudding cold foam. The coffee was strong so it hits the buzz part and the two Nilla wafers were good. The cold foam... I tasted zero banana, zilch, nada banana flavor at all. The inside is set up okay and it's cold in there so be prepared. They have a fair amount of offerings and some cool looking merch so I'd say they focus more on the aesthetics and branding than making good coffee. They do have good pastries though which is what kept them at a two star and not a one star. The person taking orders was rather rude and not very personable. She didn't seem to care to really be helpful in explaining some of the drink items. I'd say it's a place that tries to just play on hype and not substance. read more

Better Buzz Coffee Costa Mesa - Snickerdoodle Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

Quick and easy spot to get coffee - the coffee is good but can be on the sweeter side. The "best drink ever" is a bit too sweet for me, and the vanilla bean latte is just under sweetness for my liking. The service was good - the worker/barista was friendly and helpful in providing suggestions and giving realistic feedback wait times. Ambiance is as you'd expect for many coffee shops - don't expect it to be quiet. It's also very cold in there, but maybe that was just the day I went. Overall, pretty good, not sure if I'd come back just for coffee, maybe would need to give it another chance but with adjustments. read more

I'm so happy there's a Better Buzz on my way to work! I order on the app as soon as I leave the house, and it's ready for me when I arrive- such a time saver. There are so many drinks to choose from, but lately my go-to has been the iced vanilla chai latte. The staff are always so friendly and welcoming. The store is also so clean too. It's the perfect start to my mornings! Check their instagram for sticker drops :) read more

This location is seriously rage bait. One day they're so good and make the drinks stellar and the next day you could walk in and get a really watered down drink. Consistency needs to be 100% every time unfortunately it is not at this location. Today I went in and got my usual banana matcha and I know it usually comes with banana foam, today it did not and I had to ask for it. I also paid for extra matcha per usual and so I know the color should be a darker green and it seems as though they forgot that too cause my drink looks super milky... read more

Better buzz coffee is hands down one of the best coffee chains. I came in around 1:00 on my lunch break. At the time I came in, it was not crowded. Upon entering I was greeted by staff and asked what I would like to order. After reviewing the menu, I decided the horchata latte would be worth the try. My coffee was surprisingly done very quickly. Which to me stands out as the service is quick. Upon tasting the coffee, I was even more pleasantly surprised. The coffee was perfect, you can tell the beans are not over roasted creating a nice smooth coffee flavor. The latte itself was not overly sweet, which is a bonus. There is plenty of indoor and outdoor seating offering a variety of options. In addition, the parking lot has plenty of parking, but can get crowded with other establishments. The only downside to this location is no drive thru. However, I can't wait to come back! read more

Better buzzed off caffeine to energize my work endeavors!! Drink: Horchata iced latte has been my favorite superior choice. Both times been executed well and not overly sweet! The house made horchata (cinnamon rice milk and almond milk) is paired great with their espresso. This is not fake powder horchata which enhances the drink overall in its appetizing. Food: The Yogurt bowl included honeycomb, granola, fresh berries and Greek yogurt but coconut yogurt is also an option. It was a simple yet delicious choice. Service: They were efficient and easy to go orders. I appreciated the secure and sturdy containers. Overall: ole faithful horchata iced latte for the win read more

Service was fast and they were busy but, they seemed to be well staffed. My Carmel vanilla latte was delicious. The Bacon Ciabatta is made with cage-free eggs, bacon, muenster, spicy chipotle aioli on ciabatta. I would definitely order this again. Price seems to be comparable to other coffee shops. The atmosphere is bright and energetic, consistent with the BUZZ theme. read more

Such a cute coffee spot! We got 3 drinks and 2 pastries and everything was SO good. Sharon helped us out and was super sweet. Service was quick & the music was vibing. We were greeted by multiple employees right when we walked in which made it feel really welcoming. You could tell the place stays busy because customers were constantly coming in and out with their orders, but everything still moved fast. Definitely adding this spot to our coffee list. read more

It was a busy day at work so I decided to treat the staff to breakfast. They decided on Better Buzz Coffee in CM I've never heard of them before but was up for something new and threw caution to the wind and let the girls order what they thought was best They ordered me a Sausage Egg & Cheese croissant paired with a Best Drink Ever® classic americano + signature creamy vanilla The coffee was divine! It was creamy rich and had the perfect amount of sweetness The croissant was golden and had a perfect buttery and flakey texture. The sandwich cured my hunger pangs and left me very satisfied. I also tried the avocado toast which amazing Topped with buttery avocado, crumbled feta, micro greens and drizzled with a sticky sweet balsamic, cherry tomatoes on thick-cut multigrain, the toast was substantial and I enjoyed my decadent bite I have yet to visit the brick and mortar but overall I was very pleased with how everything was as packaged presented and tasted. Watch out Starbucks, there's a new kid in town and I'm a fan! Happy Eats! read more

This review is purely based on their pastries since I didn't order a drink. I ordered the pistachio croissant and chocolate chip walnut cookie. The pistachio croissant was light and fluffy, flaky and wasn't too sweet. The pistachio flavor was a bit faint but I still enjoyed it! I also ordered the chocolate chip walnut cookie which was absolutely delicious! The cookie wasn't too sweet and the walnuts balanced out the cookie. They give you the option of heating it up or taking it as is. Service was excellent! Our cashier was kind and welcoming. The coffee shop had plenty of seating and there is plenty of parking out in front. Would highly recommend for their pastries! read more

The time I got here there were a couple people who had ordered. I love how bright it is from the outside to cow inside the establishment. It's inviting. Soon as you enter you can see the "I got buzzed in Costa Mesa" signage and then see the merch as to go through the "live start here" aisle. It's very clean and organized. The barista (whose name I didn't catch) was very sweet and she had great customer service. Tipped her well. The music was some throwbacks during pandemic haha I thought it was funny and very divey. The attire is casual. I feel like you'll be able to work here read more

I like this coffee chain. Today I grabbed the cold brew with cinnamon cold foam. I absolutely love cinnamon. The cold brew is light and the cold foam has a nice flavor. Absolutely worth the calories.

Just the fact that they open at 4:30am is a plus for me since I have to go to work early and I don't like to drink coffee later than 10am. I am really happy with their drink selection and even their sweet and savory options. This is actually my overall favorite place for a quick coffee run and snack so i'm happy more locations are popping up. I got the Best drink ever with coconut cold foam and it was perfectly made. I love it here and they have seasonal drinks here too. read more

Checked out the hype at this coffee shop! We tried the Banana Pudding Best Drink Ever and the Hazelnut Divinity. The BP BDE is perfect if you like a lighter coffee flavor that isn't overly sweet, while the Hazelnut Divinity is a total dream for anyone with a sweet tooth! ​We couldn't resist the pastry case--the pistachio croissant and Kouign-Amann were both 10/10. Definitely worth the buzz! Service was great although expect a longer wait when it's rush hour. They have a few tables and a countertop to enjoy your treats or hang with a friend! read more

Stopped by with a friend to try this place and was pleasantly surprised! Nice clean coffee shop and friendly staff. Drinks came out pretty quickly. Pretty versatile menu. I'm pretty sure I ordered the seasonal summer version of the Best Drink Ever because it had some kind of coconut flavoring. It was so good and refreshing. Pretty strong coffee but totally hits the spot. 5/5 Overall, I'd definitely try this place again but likely a location that's closer to me! But I really enjoyed my experience here. read more

This review is based solely on the coffee, as it was picked up for me by a coworker. I didn't get a chance to visit the location myself or interact with the staff so I can't speak on customer service or cleanliness of the coffee shop. I ordered the snickerdoodle latte with oat milk, and honestly, it didn't do it for me. The flavor was a bit underwhelming, and I felt it could've been better balanced. That said, the menu has a lot of other options that sound really promising, especially the breakfast items and other coffee drinks. While I wouldn't order the snickerdoodle latte again, I'm definitely open to giving this place another try. I'm looking forward to stopping by in person and exploring more of what they have to offer! read more

I'm not much of a coffee person but I came here to try out their pastries. My first time here I tried treat black tea lavender latte which was pretty good if you're into lavender along with a cream cheese croissant which was AMAZING. Service is very fast and the workers are very nice. I also tried their ham and cheese croissant and thought it was okay. I can't wait to try their other pastries again when I'm in the area, a bit pricey but worth for the size you get. read more

Long overdue review for my favorite coffee spot in Costa Mesa! I've been coming here regularly whenever I head into the office, and it never disappoints. This place truly has the best coffee -- my go-to is "The Best Drink Ever" and honestly, the name doesn't lie. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, and I appreciate how quick and efficient the service is. The shop itself is bright and clean, with big windows that let in a ton of natural light -- It makes for such a nice atmosphere to sit and sip for a bit. The menu is impressively extensive, with tons of drink options for any mood or craving. Whether you like your coffee hot, iced, sweet, or bold, they've got something for you. If you haven't been yet, you're missing out! read more

Stopped by Better Buzz on a Saturday afternoon for a little coffee treat. We ordered a Honey Latte and a Snickerdoodle Latte. It was our first time, and the staff was super helpful, great customer service! They took the time to explain a bunch of drink options to us, which we really appreciated. The coffee itself had decent flavor--nothing mind-blowing, but solid. I especially liked the Honey Latte and might order it again. The Snickerdoodle was okay, but I'd probably try something different next time. The space was clean, organized, and had a really comfy, relaxing vibe. It seems like a safe, welcoming spot to hang out, eat, or study for a bit. Prices were a bit on the higher side for just two coffees, but nothing outrageous--pretty standard for specialty lattes at chain coffee shops. Overall, I'd definitely come back to try their matcha and explore more of the menu. Good first impression! read more
