Crema's Take

This cozy Tempe spot is beloved for its thoughtfully designed space and genuinely warm staff who make every visit feel special, whether you're a regular or stopping by for the first time. Their signature drinks like "The Best Drink Ever" and creative options such as horchata coffee showcase an espresso-focused approach that goes beyond the basics, while the dog-friendly patio and extended hours make it an ideal neighborhood hangout for coffee lovers looking to linger.

We had the best Valentine’s Day stop at Better Buzz Coffee - Elliot Rd & Kyrene! From the moment we walked in, we were instantly greeted by Halle with a beautiful smile and such a cheerful, welcoming energy. It truly set the tone for our visit. Ten stars for the personal touch. Aidan made our drinks in what felt like no time at all, and they were absolutely perfect. He paid careful attention to instructions on my wife's drink and refreshed it, which made a big difference. Again, 10 stars for the personal touch. The staff here are amazing. My espresso had that rich, authentic flavor and creamy/foamy top that you hope for, and my wife’s Americano was smooth and bold. You can really taste the quality in their coffee. And we can’t forget the pastry — fresh, delicious, and the perfect complement to our drinks! The atmosphere is bright, warm, and inviting — such a great spot to relax, catch up, or just enjoy an amazing cup of coffee. Between the incredible service, the flavorful drinks (no wonder people rave about “The Best Drink Ever”!), and the cozy vibe, this location easily earns 5 stars from us. We will definitely be back! 💛

One of my absolute favorite places to get coffee in Tempe! The service is always friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere is warm and inviting. The Best Drink Ever truly lives up to its name, and I love trying their specialty flavors—they never disappoint. A must-visit spot for great coffee and great vibes!

It was my first time at this location and it's smaller but cutie! I've only been to Better Buzz a handful of times, typically back in San Diego and over ten years ago! Emily was so so sweet and helpful. She took my likes and tastes into consideration as well as the different flavors I tend to like and she insisted I try the Snickerdoodley drink. To my surprise it was actually sooo good!!! Overall, great location, all the staff is super nice, extra shout out again to Emily! There is also ample room on the patio and now that the weather is getting nice, it'll be great for coffee dates and Saturday mornings with our pup!

Better Buzz has a BEAUTIFUL and thoughtful design layout, inside and out. Very cool atmosphere, however the music was quite loud. The drink itself, a blended caramel Buzz, was super delicious and perfectly blended! I ordered it online ahead of time and it came out right on time. I'd love to come back when it's cooler out so I can enjoy the patio. I feel like it'd be too hard to have a conversation or work inside.

We tried the horchata coffee and the ‘best drink ever’, both were good, but we preferred the ‘best drink ever’. Nice place to hangout/work, although there isn’t a huge amount of space inside (plenty of tables outside though). The inside is decorated nicely and is pleasant to be in.
