7 Reasons Why Better Buzz is One of the Best Coffee Shops in San Diego

This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at San Diego chapter.

Established in 2002, the Better Buzz coffee chain has since added five additional storefronts and is a go-to spot for college students, families, and coffee enthusiasts alike. They pride themselves in sourcing and roasting all of their own single origin fair trade organic coffee and in doing their best to satisfy their customers.

1. They have drinks for almost everyone.

While their menu does include a wide variety of coffee beverages, that is not the only thing they have to offer. Better Buzz also serves smoothies, juices, loose leaf teas, hot chocolate, and even kombucha on tap.

2. Their locations are all different and unique in their own way.

No two of the locations are the same. Each has its own unique ambiance that adds to the whole Better Buzz experience.

3. They don’t only serve drinks.

The menu at each of the Better Buzz locations is different, but a majority of the locations serve sandwiches, pastries, and even acai bowls.

4. They have the “Best Drink Ever”

At first I was a little skeptical of the name of this drink, but I have to admit it is definitely one of the best coffee drinks I have ever had.

#Spoontip: The “Best Drink Ever” is dairy free. So for any of you who are lactose intolerant this is the drink for you.

5. Their motto is “Life’s Better Buzzed”

As if we didn’t already know that coffee is the best.

6. There are even drive-thru locations for those who are on the go.

Sometimes we just don’t have time to park the car and wait in line to get our caffeine fix. Having a drive thru location definitely sets Better Buzz apart from other local coffee shops.

7. The service is awesome.

Unlike a lot of coffee places, Better Buzz has employees that are always smiling and paying attention to the details. It’s obvious that they enjoy what they do and really care about their customers.
