I come here every single day and the employees all know my long order and it truly makes my day. My day is not complete without a better buzz drink or two. read more

Uniqueness: Better Buzz always nailing it with their sweet, unique coffee options. Wait Time: [x][x][x][x][x] Drink Quality: [x][x][x][x][x] Service: [x][x][x][x][x] Setting: [x][x][x][x][x] Cost: [x][x][x][x][ ] Recommendation? The Banana Pudding Latte was terrific if you're into banana flavored drinks. Quick simple review: Been a fan of Better Buzz in SD for years and would definitely say this spot in the airport felt like any other Better Buzz in great quality and service. It being the airport did feel quite modern and the staff here were very friendly & quick. They had a seasonal Banana Pudding Latte and that drink was terrific. Out of all the coffee spots in this terminal, I'll definitely still come back to Better Buzz in the end. read more

This location is just past security in the new terminal 1 of San Diego airport. Fast service once you order, but took a bit of time for someone to come back to the counter to take orders while a line was forming. Also the prices were ridiculously high even by airport standards, plus there is an additional 2% airport surcharge on top of the elevated price. I got a honey latte which was $8 base plus $1 for oat milk. It tasted fine, but not worth $9. For food, I got the better breakfast sandwich, which decent and filling, but also not really worth $14.50. Also the staff member making food orders was just slapping things into containers and the pickup for food orders is separate from the pickup for drinks -- so if you order both, make sure you listen for your name at both counters. All in all, it is a decent coffee place, but there are more options in the terminal. read more

Dare I say that this is one of the best coffee shops I've ever seen at an airport? I was incredibly impressed with all the different options. I got a very decadent, coconut coffee, frozen drink, and it definitely had the hit of caffeine and sugar I was looking for. It really felt like a treat after I found out my flight was delayed. You can order on a kiosk, which I appreciate for convenience, but obviously isn't as personal. If you're going for the personal touch, there is the traditional cashier. Thanks for the buzz. read more

Great for airport coffee and breakfast. I got the avocado toast which came with a salad. The service was not super fast but I had plenty of time. The seating area looked like it needed to be cleaned but I took my food to the gate. Not a bad deal for the amount of food. The coffee was great. read more

Great location right inside of New Terminal 1 after passing through TSA. The location is well lighted, clean, and has great cold shelf variety for purchase. They have the self service kiosks as well. It is a quick and easy way to grab a coffee, tea, small bite, or treat before your flight. I recommend this convenient location. read more

I've been here twice and it's always nice to see a Better Buzz greet you after TSA. The line goes pretty quickly, even if the line is kinda long sometimes. The food wait is average, sometimes I get it quick and sometimes there's a wait. Like another Yelpie stated, I looked at Better Buzz app and I was unable to find this location on the app, therefore, you can't use your Buzz points at this location. Hopefully this gets fixed since you can use your Starbucks app at the Terminal 2 location. Drinks are pretty good. I got my usual Best Drink Ever and an avocado toast. Ingredients were fresh and the toast was visually appealing, so much so that another customer said, "That looks good." The pickup process can be quite confusing since the servers name is also on your order sticker which causes some ppl to inadvertently think that it's their name on the food. If you're in a rush, you may accidentally grab someone else's order. This almost happened when someone picked up their order and then another person asked to look at the label on their food, which had her name on it but it was the servers name on it instead. Location is bright and clean and the pastry case was adequately stocked. I would stop by again only because I love Better Buzz coffee. read more

A great option for a drink and snack before catching a flight out of terminal 1. It's convenient, fast and reasonably priced. Service is exceptional and the place is clean. I wouldn't hesitate to stop by here again when travelling out of town. read more

Honestly, this was a really lovely Better Buzz location even for being at the airport. Very spacious with lots of tables and outlets--definitely a good spot to kill time before a flight. My banana best drink ever was also really good! + Baristas were kind enough to give a tiny discount when I asked if they used the BB app (spoiler: they don't but be nice and maybe you'll get a discount too!) read more

Better Buzz - Banana pudding best drink ever - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Diego, California

After getting out of TSA (Terminal 2) this Better Buzz is what you will see once you get out! Coffee? I think yes! I self ordered through the kiosk, and got the "best banana pudding drink ever". Wait was about 5-10 minutes and they were super busy!! kudos to yall for staying on top of it. Place was clean, had napkins/utensils/condiments for grabs. Only reason why I gave 4 stars is because I got an iced coffee but it was warm and ice floating to the top melting. Other than that, great service and good coffee :) read more

The açaí bowl and Snickerdoodle coffee were good, and overall Better Buzz is not a bad spot. I've been to a few different locations, and the food and drinks are usually enjoyable. The main thing I've noticed is the customer service could be better. I've had a similar experience at different Better Buzz locations, so that part does stand out. Overall, good coffee and bowls, but the service experience could use some improvement. read more

Yahoo! Terminal One is finally open and better than ever! Immediately after exiting security I was looking for coffee and there was a giant Better Buzz. The design and esthetics are welcoming and bright. It was clear where to order, easy to see the menus and plenty of space to wait for your drink. I believe they also offered a "mobile order" option, although I didn't use it. This spot had been open less than a month and there were a few hiccups (some employees still trying to navigate the menu screen and they ran out of cow's milk) but I believe both will shortly be straightened out and they'll be functioning at a high level in no time. My larger cold brew with almond milk was made carefully (I watched to make sure I wasn't given another milk or they skimped on the coffee, filling it mostly with ice) and they were careful to give me 'light ice' as I'd asked and plenty of cold brew with a splash of almond milk. It tasted great and I would highly recommend grabbing yourself something next time you're in the NEW TERMINAL ONE! read more

Food: 3.0 Coffee: 4.3 Service: 4.0 INSIDE NEW TERMINAL 1 San Diego after TSA OK I'm excited about the new terminal in San Diego, it's like a new indoor mall. But Better Buzz greets you right after TSA, so of course 6:30am we need some coffee. A modest line but it went quickly to order, then another short wait for our toasted bagel, hot mocha, and my drip coffee was already in-hand! Their house drip is nice and smooth and really doesn't need sugar or cream, wife is not particular so she was happy too with her mocha and their bagel is just a bagel but they do have a nice selection of pastries (sorry no pic), maybe need to try if I find out the pastries are supplied from a local bakery. A great location if you need a jolt of caffeine! read more

Better Buzz - Hot Café Mocha before flying home to Sac - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Diego, California

Your review is already strong and detailed! Here's a slightly polished version with smoother flow and clarity while keeping your voice and meaning intact: --- The taste of their coffee is excellent--rich, smooth, and definitely worth coming back for! That said, the electronic ordering menu is a bit confusing. If you want an iced coffee, you don't actually click on "iced." Instead, you select "coffee" first, and then after choosing your drink, there's an option to add ice. I made the mistake of ordering an iced Vanilla Buzz coffee, only to realize it's actually a slushie-style drink! Thankfully, they understood the confusion since it's happened before and were more than happy to remake my drink. Great customer service! The only thing that would have made it even better is if they had asked whether anyone in my party wanted the original drink instead of throwing it away. I also ordered the Bacon Ciabatta (cage-free eggs, Muenster cheese, and spicy chipotle aioli on ciabatta), and it was excellent! The bread was light and crunchy--completely different (and much better!) than how it appeared. The flavors came together perfectly. The café is in a great location with comfortable chairs and tables, making it a nice spot to sit and relax. The bathrooms are conveniently located and not too far away, which is always a plus. Overall, great coffee and food--just be prepared to navigate the ordering screen carefully! read more

This is not really Better Buzz. Although it appears like it and has signs everywhere, you can't use your Better Buzz points. You can't scan your app for an eight dollar coffee. There is nothing that resembles Better Buzz in my opinion. I will not be going read more

I had such a great experience here! The food was absolutely delicious, everything tasted fresh and well made. The staff really stood out too--Priscilla and everyone else on shift were so nice, welcoming, and made the whole visit feel comfortable and enjoyable. The place itself was super clean and had such a friendly vibe. I ordered a matcha latte and it was honestly one of the best matchas I've ever had--perfectly balanced and so good. I would 100% recommend this spot to anyone looking for a nice outing with good food and delicious drinks! read more

Got a three seed avocado toast (which I regularly eat from better buzz) and the bread wasn't toasted at all. What I received was avocado spread and chunks of butter on limp bread. Totally get it mistakes happen, I waited until they had a minute and asked if it maybe forgot to get toasted, showed them the bread and the guy on warming said "I toasted it". My fiancée went up to the counter to ask politely for it to be remade, two of the girls on bar were talking sh*t about it and they told him "it's going to be burnt if we toast it again". I legit work at a coffee shop and have for 5 years, if something isn't right just make it again. I'd recommend talking about customers a little quietly. If you're that miserable work somewhere else. Changed the review to 1 star because the service was that bad. First time leaving a 1 star. read more

Super friendly staff always! Always so polite and professional, and they make great suggestions on food items, and coffee items!

What a bummer. Love Better Buzz but apparently this location is irritated at doing any extra "work". Ordered a not Latte by accident. When I told the Barista she had just finished my hot Latte and said I was "too late" and put my drink at the counter. I asked if she could pour it into an iced cup and again she said it was already made (?). I made a comment about her lack of interest in making any easy switch (which I've seen done many times) and a guy said I needed to buy a new drink if I wanted it iced (again, as if this was a different drink??). Just don't get it, I've made this mistake a few times and nobody has blinked - just poured it into a cup with ice. Why these two were against such a simple task is beyond my comprehension. Note - my comment was a little shitty, so I get the guys attitude in his response, just don't get the response overall. Customer service appears dead here. read more

Blueberry muffin.... do better... dry not fresh at 5 am .... sad to get such poor quality from better buzz... others do better....

I won't discount others mixed experiences here but my experience personally at this Better Buzz was great.

I had the most disgusting experience ever at this better buzz location in the sd airport. I ordered a breakfast sandwich and watched the man who makes them touch everything in his patch without changing his gloves. It was disgusting. His gloves were covered in wetness from literally everything he was touching. He left a dirty rag on the table where he was preparing the food and he kept moving it around so I watched everyone's foods be placed on the table where a disgusting dirty rag laid only seconds before. When he called my name, I grabbed my sandwich and threw it directly in the trash. I went to the taco stand where they safely prepare food, and ordered a burrito. I will never be back. read more

Worst açaí bowl I've ever had. Paid $15 and it was pure liquid and not at all açaí texture at all.

Terrible place absolutely the biggest rip off. First the guy taking the order refused to listen to anything I said. I had to keep repeating myself . It was like he had this idea of what the order should be and refused to stray from it. Then comes the out of control prices.. two coffees , one bagel no butter no condiments and avocado toast which want toasted ,limp and the micro greens were crap from some salad mix from Vons .. $48!! GTFO did we lose a war of something?? What a complete scam this was . How do you justify $48 for that!! He said it with a straight face as well. This place should be ashamed of itself. Then you read a small sign on the register.. they add a 2% surcharge from staff hiring and retention!! You have to be kidding. I have to pay for that? You penalize the customer because better buzz doesn't want to look after their workers?? If better buzz don't have good wages and conditions and their turnover rate is high and they have retention issues,that's not my problem and NO ONE should pay for that except the employer.. better buzz. You see a lot of these small surcharges being added to the customers bill because lazy employers don't want to look after their employees which is their duty to. This practice should be made illegal. Also four chairs one table to sit at.. for a busy airport. Trash on the floor. Just a disgrace all round read more
