Large iced best drink ever
Caitlin C.

First time visiting an AZ location! Order a large best drink and spicy chilli jam croissant. Highly recommend! Drink looked a bit short. Bathrooms were clean and service was respectable. This location had cool merch too! Like the ASU x Better Buzz collab tee!

This Better Buzz Coffee is located in a great spot near Tempe Marketplace. It is a nice clean store with indoor and outdoor seating. I visited their first Arizona location when it first opened in Phoenix. There was a lot of hype around this San Diego coffee chain at that time. Now we have locations all over. Better Buzz Coffee serves a variety of handcrafted coffee and espresso drinks, teas, cold brews, smoothies, pastries and grilled sandwiches. Better Buzz uses the "buzz" part in their name to highlight the energizing jolt of its drinks. Better Buzz Tempe has a drive-thru or you can sit and enjoy your drink on the premises. They have a lot of merchandise like hats, shirts and mugs. They also sell coffee products to make at home. Better Buzz Coffee offers a number of flavored canned energy drinks called Buzz Energy. I was intrigued by their Moroccan Spice and Horchata Lattes but ended up ordering their Mint Infused Iced Coffee. We enjoyed a nice day on the patio during our first visit here. I live nearby and need to come by more often to try more of their drink flavors. The holiday drinks look fun.

Obsessed w the pink accent !

Okay, Evie at Better Buzz Tempe is literally the best part of my day. He walks in the room (well, behind the counter) and the whole store just lights up. The energy is unmatched!! I trust him so much that I just tell him "make me whatever you want" and he has NEVER missed. Every single drink is a banger. Creative, delicious, and made with actual care. It's giving main character energy. Customer service? Top tier. Vibes? Immaculate. Drinks? Elite. If Evie's working, do yourself a favor and ask for him. You won't regret it. 10/10, would recommend to who deserves a good drink!

Lavender best drink ever
Janet L.

From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by a clean and bright storefront with the friendliest staff. I didn't catch his name, but he is extremely tall (I even joked and asked if he was a basketball player). He needs to be recognized, because I truly felt like a VIP and he made my day. I was asked if I were a rewards program member, got my phone number, my order, and the order came out so quickly that I didn't even get all situated yet. I love my Lavender Best Drink Ever so much! FYI- The WiFi wasn't fast enough to play a video or run Canva, but okay to check emails and other admin app like Shopify.

Q: How do you fix a broken candy cane? A: With a peppermint twist! Candy Cane Best Drink Ever and an Iced Matcha Tea Latte was ordered by app and picked up shortly afterwards. The Candy Cane Best Drink Ever at 3/4 sweetness and with oat milk was an amazing sweet treat after hiking "A" Mountain nearby. I'm a fan of their "Best Drink Ever" so any time they release a fun cold foam to go on top, I'm down. What else needs to be said about this San Diego coffee chain? They're great and they do coffee well!

Seasonal peppermint drink

I love this coffee chain, and came by this location recently for a fun coffee drink. The inside wasn't too busy and was clean. Indoor and outdoor seating are available at this location. Lots of merch for purchase as well as coffee beans and supplies! I ordered one of their seasonal drinks that had peppermint on it and really enjoyed it! The drink came up fast and the people working were all very nice! Can't get enough of this place, definitely recommend checking it out!

Better Buzz: A brew-tiful way to start the new year. Came here after the yearly "A" Mountain hike nearby. I ordered the Iced Matcha Tea Latte. I have to admit that it wasn't the most matcha-forward tasting drink, the milk having covered most of the flavor, but it was enjoyable. This is a great Better Buzz location. They can get a little busy but you can order off the app to make the process easier.

Was excited to hear Better Buzz finally landed right near Tempe Marketplace! I've been to their spots in California, and this one is just as good. I tried their signature drink, the Best Drink Ever. It was good, a surprise because I usually don't go for Americanos. My mom got the Snickerdoodle Latte with alt milk, less sweet, and she liked it. The GF Banana Nut Muffin was also surprisingly good, very moist. The barista taking my order was friendly, and took the time to go over the menu with me. Definitely a solid stop for good coffee, I'll be back but will try something different.

Holiday cup!
Christopher T.

Nice, clean, modern aesthetic. Service is fast and friendly. Has a drive thru as well. Menu is extensive with all the standards plus specials and some food options. Americano with a splash of milk for me. Well made, low acid. All around good taste. Place does have a bit of a chainy type feel to it, but I was cool with that. N*joy!

Layla K.

Cool vibe and cute theme carried throughout restaurant. Coffee was the perfect balance, not bitter and smooth. I will definitely add this place to my regular rotation.

Pink dragon smoothie and a killer bee
Teresa A.

Such a nicely lit location and I dig the decor. I got the pink dragon smoothie but it wasnt really a smoothie. The ice was not very well blended so every sip it was tiny ice chunks moreso like a snow cone. It was honestly a little off putting. You cant really drink their smoothies here, you kind of eat it. Just hoping it was just a 1 off thing. I would order something else if I were ever to come back. The music is definitely loud here. Service was super quick and they were so busy in their drive through. Props to the crew for knocking out orders. My boyfriend got the killer bee. He said it was alright.

Great coffee with my hotels waffle
Renata R.

Excellent Customer Service & Delicious Coffee! I just left about an hour ago and had to write this review, that's how good the experience was! This was my first visit, and the young lady at the counter was incredibly sweet and helpful. I wasn't sure what to order, so I told her what I usually drink, and she made a few great suggestions. I ended up going with the Moroccan coffee ahhh, so good! The place itself is really nice with a great menu, friendly staff, and actual tasty coffee unlike the coffee-colored water at our hotel. Yuck! I'll definitely be back to try more exciting options from their menu. Highly recommend!

Horchata latte with cinnamon foam (see review)
Tiffany S.

I'm generally pretty easy going with coffee but of the few times I've been to this location only one time was the experience great for the amount they charge. While the service is friendly, the coffee is hit or miss. I've also never paid more for two shots of espresso with cold foam than a latte before so that was a bit different and I decided to just order menu drinks from here rather than my usual. It's worth the extra drive to University for The Human Bean for better pricing and consistency. I pulled through yesterday for the horchata latte, ordered two and asked to add cinnamon foam. They charged for the foam but then didn't put it on the coffee. When I mentioned they didn't have the foam on them she said "they don't come with foam" so I had let her know that was why I requested the foam and paid for it. The horchata latte is layered with the espresso on top so the fix resulted in dumping out half the espresso to add the foam. It wasn't worth trying to have them remake it so I just left. The flavor is good, the coffee is good, but paying $10 to have half the actual coffee dumped out is not great.

Wonderful owner! She is so kind and runs the show all by herself…read more The cats here are little angels and they're so friendly! I took a date here and when we first talked he really didn't like cats and now he's ready to adopt one from this cafe . I will be returning

The woman who owns this place does not know how to communicate. It's also not a cafe... it's just…read morea room full of underfed cats advertising 'events'. MY good friend adopted 2 cats from here. It was a total hassle, horrible communication. And when we went to visit them before the adoption we were accosted by children at some sort of birthday party. The cats were STRESSED. WE WERE STRESSED. They scheduled our meeting with a birthday party for some young kids who were just flicking cat toys in our face and all the cats faces and running around so we couldn't interact like we would have hoped too. When we went to pick the boys up finally( 2 brothers who we were told wereNOT bonded but absolutely were.. thank goodness we took both)(..There was some sort of 'date' event going on and I had people swarming me constantly while I was trying to connect and CATCH the kitties we were taking home. It was a disaster. The price to adopt both was a Little outrageous as well considering you could tell they were fighting for food.... I appreciate what this woman is doing and please please adopt and don't shop, but be ready to spend some money and be frustrated trying to adopt.... Or even get a coffee from this cat 'CAFE'
