Better Buzz Coffee La Jolla — Restaurant in San Diego

Stopped in here while visiting from out of town. Place has an excellent sense of style but the service was not super impressive. Only 1 other guest in front when we were there in the late afternoon. They ordered a chai, I ordered a nitro cold brew and picked up a bag of whole bean coffee. It took about 5 minutes for the nitro to be pulled, which is odd. The cashier and barista just didn't seem to have any sense of urgency.

The drink I received was pretty disappointing. Even though I ordered nitro, it was served in a standard 16oz cup with about 1/3 ice. I've only ever had nitro one other place that served it with ice and it was a barista accident. It really ruins the visual cascade and immediately defroths the drink. I asked the barista as soon as they gave me my order "do you always add ice to the nitro?" to which he responded "yeah, of course" as though I was the first person to ever question this (which I highly doubt). Their cup label even indicated they include ice, though I wasn't specifically asked about it when I ordered nitro. So it's safe to say, this is just what they do here.

The cold brew itself seemed fairly watered down to begin with, so I definitely can't recommend the cold brew or the nitro based on my experience.

I'd say overall staff service 3.5 stars, shop aesthetic 5 stars, whole bean coffee 4 stars, nitro 1 star. If I'm ever nearby again I'd have to try a different drink, but I'd more likely try a...

Really nice and open vibe, staff super friendly and patient...Invited an old friend to meet for her birthday with the lure of lavender matchas! We were both running late, but I arrived an hour early and got to scope out the Buzz. I've visited most of the locations this one is by far the most open and welcoming and although it is 2 blocks from the cove, parking is prime! Every type of customer arrived via walking tour, scooter, baby stroller and my favorite an senior hipster with the newest, cleanest mercedes coupe ever. (he literally hopped out with a polo shirt, tie tucked into his jeans, gucci belt blazer & golf cap and I wanted his autograph for being so damn cool)...

Although I did order the iced matcha with lavender, it just came out regular...still tasty, but I was so busy chatting with K; didn't bother to correct order. My avocado toast was perfection! Granted, this is only my second time ordering but watermelon radish- and at my request they added feta....so delish, took half home with me. Next time I plan to double up on pastries, zucchini walnut muffins & lemon poppy...
