Not the same as it used to be the menu get a little overwhelming and they're usually out of most stuff but other than that as long as they remember to give you a straw through DoorDash, then you can at least drink your drink, but if you don't, it's hot on the bottom and cold on top if you get an iced coffee only way to fix that is like you put the straw on it and then you blow in the straw read more

Great coffee and services is good, like the place is small, it remind me a place we try in Utah close to Zion

I was in the neighborhood and in desperate need of coffee, but wanted to try something different. The drive thru area is really complicated and there are two lanes, but only one window so when it gets really busy I can see the chaos that will ensue when the lanes try to merge. The menu has a few seasonal items and some of their classics, but the menu is pretty small compared to other coffee places. I opted for Hazelnut Divinity and it was ok. There wasn't a strong coffee taste and just only tasted sweet, but not really hazelnut flavor either. Next time I would either get an extra shot in it or try their Best Drink Ever. Also be prepared to speak loudly into the microphone at the drive thru because our barista couldn't hear us and I had to yell our order to her in order for her to hear us. read more

I LOVE better buzz! I've been coming to this location for years. It's a little long line, but it's so worth it. SIENNA! She has the best customer service. Such a sweet presence, and even tho she's standing out here in the sun, she always approaches the car with a smile! read more

Service was quick and they were so nice! I went in right before work and was through in under 5 min

Great açaí bowls and service I was really happy to be helped by Danny she made me feel welcomed and recommended some drinks for future visits. Good music playing in the patio too! read more

The service was awesome and I had my order repeated several times to make sure it was right! Good attitude is a plus! Better then Starbucks in taste and cost, if I'm being bold. I also like the fact you taste the coffee and the flavor of peppermint, I'm super picky about my drinks tasting as such, and this place nailed it! read more

Great service and employees always have a great and friendly attitude, specially Taku. The ambiance is very positive the food and their drinks have never failed, always delicious. Highly recommend Better Buzz to all my friends and family. read more

Came across this place randomly, and I can say I def enjoyed it. I didn't know what to order , so I ask the cashier to surprise me. Everyone was very welcoming and it was quick. read more

I'm obsessed with Better Buzz coffee. I'm so basic and constantly get the Iced Vanilla Latte, but it is PERFECT every-time, and whipped together so fast! I am honestly surprised how fast my coffee is made even when they have a line busting out the drive thru! My only protest is that I get more points for my coffee! It takes just about forever to win enough points for a free one but that won't stop me from being a loyal costumer read more

Service is the slowest I've ever had at any better buzz or any coffee location. Took almost 15 minutes for 1 açaí bowl they make us pull forward to then wait more. Then walk the bowl out hand is no napkins no spoon. My husband gets out to go to the window now to ask for a spoon gets ignored for an additional 3 minutes he's like "hellooo can someone get me a spoon please" lol. This isn't the first time either. I've waited almost 10 min before for 1 small matcha. read more

Love Better Buzz. It's my go to in San Marcos. I like the patio. Be sure to order ahead on the app. I love getting better buzz and then going across the street for a pastry from momma Katz read more

The coffee is absolutely amazing every single time! 1000% recommend over Starbucks! Their matcha is SO good!

Best butter buzzed around!! Sienna is SO friendly and has the best customer service! I always stop by here for an açaí bowl!

We had a lovely experience today! 3 great drinks from the sweetest baristas. Jocelyn, Sienna and Morgan were super friendly and helpful too! I loved my lavender tea latte! read more

Always a great place to go. Even though it is small, the place produces great things. I've been wanting to Franchise one forever and sent several emails starting from 7-9 years ago to open on in Murrieta. All I got in response was "we are not franchising at the moment." And what happens? They build one in Menifee and one in Temecula. I don't think it's right but it's ok. The coffee is always great, the pastries are tasty, and the service is polite and fast. I wish I was able to say I own my own. read more

For my first time at better buzz, Taku was the sweetest and the bestest for helping me with my order. Even gave me another suggestion for my next visit. Definitely will come here again! read more

Wonderful coffee shop with sweethearts for baristas like Taku (I hope I'm remembering their name right!) they always make my dirty chai extra dirty and just right read more

Literally my favorite pit stop for coffee before school ! Not sure what they put in the coffee but doesn't even compare to other coffee places. Taku helped me out today and he was very nice and welcoming. I've never had a bad experience at this location read more

I'm a huge fan of Better Buzz and this is a cute little drive thru spot so don't expect to go inside an actual coffee shop. They do have tables set up outside for you to enjoy your cup of coffee. Been here quite a few times and it's usually busy, not super packed but it is a busy spot. I asked if I could get a latte with lavender (not their lavender tea latte) and they happily customized the drink for me.. thank you for the flexibility BB team! read more

This Better Buzz location is the first I knew of and enjoyed before all the other ones opened up so this place has a special place in the coffee corner of my heart. Just want to give a shoutout to Taku for his recommendation of my new fave drink Hazelnut Divinity (half sweet w/ oat milk)! Paired with the Islander Açaí bowl with coconut/mango add almond butter is a great combo. Always service with a smile at this location! read more

'Best Drink Ever' is my go to good at home so only right to order here! Nice, clean and welcoming staff. We also ordered the Avocado Toast that was so delicious (especially with squeezed lemon) so yum. They have a drive through if you don't want to get out of your car. We ordered inside and happy we did. Cool merch, whole beans, açaí bowls. Options available for avocado toast which was a nice touch. We are coffee snobs and would for sure go back! Staff was pretty cool read more

Love how better buzz is always creative when it comes to the holidays and their cups . I highly recommend best drink ever , lavender black tea latte ( oat milk / almond milk of course ) . Thank you read more

Ana was amazing! I wanted to try a new drink to spice things up and she recommended that I try the candy cane best drink ever. I tried it and I couldn't believe how great the drink was!! That, in conjunction with personable customer service and a great atmosphere, is the reason why I'm giving this store 5 stars. Thank you Ana!! (And San Marcos better buzz!) read more

10/10 experience, Ana was super attentive and nice! She recommended the buzzed candy cane, and it was the best! I don't even like peppermint half of the time but it worked out so well :) plus the place is so cozy it's definitely welcoming! read more

I took my mom today with me and was pleasantly surprised that they had someone that was bilingual and answered some of our questions. They even brought the drinks to the car for us. The candy cane buzz was delicious! read more

Fantastic staff at Better Buzz! Friendly, fast, and always on point. They make every visit enjoyable. Huge shoutout to the team for consistently stellar service! read more

This location is one of the smallest and usually most difficult to order from if you want it to be quick. The line throughout the parking lot can take over 40 minutes sometimes. I prefer to mobile order here and usually that goes well. I'll only risk hopping in line if I know it's not a busy day/time. Parking and getting out to order in person hasn't been quicker either. Although it does take time here, my drinks and food have always been delicious! It is also an almost convenient location for north county since it is along the 78. My most recent visit was a breeze! I mobile ordered ahead of time, and got our drinks right on time in the pick up spot. Super convenient! My peppermint mocha was delicious and again my drinks have always been great here. This time was no different. read more

We used to love better buzz but no longer. Our fav was their 'best drink ever' and it has become the 'weakest drink ever'. For the last few times we've been, it barely had any taste. For all of the hype and price, their coffee stinks. read more

I seriously hate this location. I always have issues coming here. Today I get a $8, a little over half full. A couple of days ago I sent my husband to pick up my order and he said when he walked up to the window, everybody at the window ignored him for about five minutes so when he finally asked the lady at the window she rudely told him it's going to be a minute even though he could see my drink on the counter. So he waited, and then she popped her head out the window and asked who he was waiting for he told her Liz then she grabbed the cup opened the lid smelled the drink confirmed it was a black tea Lavender latte put a lid back on, but was having trouble so she put her hand her hands all over the lid and handed it to him. The label on the cup said Liz black lavender tea latte why couldn't she just confirm that way instead of sticking her nose in my drink!?after he told me that I I tossed the drink, so gross!! read more

I always make a stop here whenever coming to town! I love the best drink ever (especially when they make the candy cane version during Christmas!). Thank you so much to Jocelyn, Siena, and Morgan for the excellent service! read more

I still don't understand the hype about this place. I wanted to like it but for some reason my drink is always bad... Came on a Wednesday noon, we ordered a horchata latte, and their best drink ever. We purchased at the window with no line and yet the drinks still took about 25 minutes while the girls were just chit chatting...Was really excited when we received the drinks since it was a hot day. Best drink ever was not bad but nothing too special about it. It's basically a decently sweet vanilla latte. Horchata latte was...we weren't really sure what we were drinking honestly. It tasted like sweet water with some flavor which wasn't horchata. No cinnamon, no vanilla, very light coffee taste. We were just really confused. Not sure if there are specific locations I have to try to be able to get the better version of better buzz or maybe I'd just try it again when I'm buzzed. read more

Sooo the location itself is a bit weird and the drive through line kinda loops around the parking lot due to how busy they get but I finally understand the hype. I ordered the iced honey latte w oat milk which was one of the best lattes I've ever had! The customer service can definitely use to help though especially for first timers. read more
