Better Buzz Coffee Point Loma, San Diego CA

Better Buzz is San Diego’s staple coffee spot. There’s always a long line of cars waiting at the drive thru, so get ready to wait. But the coffee is worth it - the blended caramel buzz is a must try and their seasonal drinks are always a hit as well. Skip the Starbucks next time you’re in San Diego and get some Better Buzz instead!

Good coffee but lots of environmental issues. They sold me food in a compostable container, but they don't have a compost bin (I asked). Throwing compost containers in the trash releases methane which is much more potent of a greenhouse gas then CO2. Also, it means my food is more expensive. Second, they didn't want to let me use my own mug for my coffee. It seemed like they'd never done this before, and they were pretty rude about it. It's 2021. Catch up!

Zero sense of urgency. Pull up to the drive thru window and workers are talking about their weekend plans, laughing and joking with absolutely no Acknowledgment for the customers or even apologize for the long wait (AND on top of that MY ORDER WAS WRONG). Expect a ridiculously long wait time for a cup of coffee when you come to this location.

Such a cute coffee shop with amazing baristas!

Their house made vanilla bean lattes are AMAZING! Highly recommend to anyone in the area! Their acai bowls & zucchini muffins are also out of this world

Staff was kind and helpful. The Coconut beverage is so amazing! Disappointed in the Horchata, but the coconut more than made up for it. There’s no wonder there’s a wait (but well worth it).

High fructose corn syrup buzz coffee lol impossible to drink. Are there any survivors with normal taste buds or everyone so jacked up on Americanized flavors that drinking pure sugary liquid considered delicious? Lol

My experience at this location for the most part has been positive and that’s the reason for
This 5 star review. I’ve had a few questionable moments but brushes them off. But the young lady who was working the drive thru window today (11/16/2021 between 7: 08 - 7: 16) needs to work on her customer service skills.

The food was delectable and the staff was agreeable. The feel was exceptionally comfortable and agreeable. The espresso was incredible, that was the explanation I love to invest energy here each time I'm exhausted at home. All things considered, this spot is our cherished where we could appreciate babble with companions over some espresso. I suggest this spot and will be returning here soon.

The coffee is better than Starbucks but the prices are significantly higher. My husband and I each got a small latte and it came to almost fifteen dollars we thought we had been miss charged! We won’t be coming back!

Absolutely stellar coffee and fun, caffeinated creations.
One star removed solely because this location has a pretty rough drive-thru backup and the in store ordering also takes a while. Definitely go though!

This place has a hip buzz to it but it has a long way to go to catch up with Starbucks. The coffee I ordered was average but the banana nutbread was great. The seating and space was extremely limited, but it could be different at other locations.

The wait was long but worth it. The price was very reasonable compared to other coffee shops in the area. Enjoyed the food & Service

Ordered iced dirty chai latte. It had 2 shots and couldn't get any caffeine taste to it. Felt like a regular chai. They call themselves roasters but a true roaster includes roasting date in their coffee beans and none of them had it. I do appreciate they include altitude in some of the labels but no roasting date. Food was good which is why I gave them 3 stars. They are worth trying instead of going to Starbucks but don't expect it to be the best coffee ever.

Oh my goodness, what an amazing coffee house, very trendy, fast service, no to complicated menu, right to the point, definitely a hidden gem, a definitely retuning customer.

Very tasty coffee with unique flavors. I absolutely enjoyed the mocha de Mexico, it tasted like Abuelita hot chocolate with a kick of coffee!

The food gets made fast but the first time I was there my drink was a little more than half full and the 2nd time by breakfast sandwich was so hard I had to take the too off because I couldn't bite through it.

Coffee was pretty good. However the staff was pretty rude, there was no line or people in line inside and i felt rushed the entire time. Kinda hard to find something to enjoy when I’m at a coffee shop for the first time.

The worst part is that when i pulled up to the window to pay the staff that was rushing me was joking and playing around inside.

I’ll head to another location and see if it’s the same there as well.

Hotel coffee wasn't cutting it when I was delayed in San Diego for a couple days. Luckily this place was just a couple blocks away. Great coffee. Great service. Cool place.

The name says it all!

I had the latte. So much more flavor. Definitely heads above Starbucks. This is the second day I have had a latte here. It's consistently made, same excellent flavor.

Try the ham and cheese croissant!

A solid choice whenever in the San Diego area for some coffee. This Point Loma location is less than a block from the hotel I'm staying at, the Monsaraz. It's also open very early at 5am! And it's very convenient since there's also a drive- thru.
