    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 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

    Banana pudding best drink ever!!

    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

    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!

    I had ordered a drink that I didn't like and I usually don't go back and request a change but in this economy :/ Julian and Shana gladly switched my drink with a smile. Thank you so much!

    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.

    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!

    Horchata Iced Latte- it's really gross. Wont be getting it anymore. I'll try something else off the menu.

    Amazing experience at Better Buzz Coffee! The banana pudding coffee was incredible--easily one of the best drinks I've had. Service was top tier and the ambience was clean and welcoming. Definitely coming back!

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Stopped by on a weekday morning around 10:30 am and the experience was smoother than expected for a…read morepopular spot. There were about 3 people ahead of me in line and a few waiting for drinks, but I was able to order and get my drink in around 10 minutes. Staff was very friendly and checked in with us while waiting in line! I ordered the Matcha Two, which comes as a matcha latte topped with salted matcha vanilla cream foam. The foam was velvety and creamy. The matcha had a smooth, earthy flavor with subtle sweetness. Oatmilk was the default choice, and while I usually think oatmilk can overpower matcha, it worked well in this drink. It is a little pricey for 1 drink, but that also seems to be the norm these days for specialty drinks. This is more of a grab-and-go spot than a place to hang out. There's no seating, just a bench inside, and everyone waited outside since the interior is on the smaller side. Parking was easy when I went. Overall, a pleasant experience for a yummy matcha drink, and I'd definitely come back to try more of their matcha menu!

    Was in the OC area and craving matcha, so we decided to try this spot. It's relatively small…read moreinside, but the vibe was cute and cozy. The staff was really friendly and seemed to work well together. The matcha was really good, not too sweet, not overly milky, and not bitter. My boyfriend tried the blueberry matcha and surprisingly it didn't taste syrupy or artificial at all. It had a really fresh blueberry flavor without that candle-like taste some places have. We actually finished our drinks before we even left the plaza, which says a lot because we usually take forever to finish drinks. Definitely a solid matcha spot.

Nothing here in my opinion is absolutely spectacular, but I also don't have gripes about it either. They do have a cool tatami floor mat installation where you can hang as long as you take your shoes off. It's a great vibe and it's got good drinks, what else can you ask for?

    Jasmine Milk Tea with boba and less sugar: very milky and bland. I could barely taste the tea, and…read morethe sweetness level seemed like it was at 25% rather than at 75%. Definitely had to doctor it at home. At least the boba was yummy and soft without being mushy. Regarding customer service, I agree with a few other Yelpers about how lackluster it is. The two ladies working there (one at the register and one making drinks) were indifferent and looked like they'd rather be somewhere else. We weren't greeted upon entry or when we went up to the register and started looking over the menu. When what I thought was my drink was ready, the lady who made it just quickly set it onto the counter, mumbled something that I couldn't really understand, and then walked off into the kitchen area. When I called out for confirmation, neither of the ladies looked at me or answered my question. Luckily, it appeared to be a light-colored milk tea and did have boba, so I'm guessing it was mine haha. My friend didn't really like the Golden Milk Tea (also got less sweet and added boba), as she said it wasn't the type of black tea flavor she was expecting. My other friend thought her oreo blended drink was ok but had a strange aftertaste that she couldn't really describe. There were a lot of people inside on a Saturday night. Interior was cute with the Christmas decorations. There were a good amount of wooden tables and benches throughout, but one of the bench cushions at the back table had a huge tear in it, which didn't look comfortable or sanitary.
