Sip, Savor, Repeat: Better Buzz Expands in Orange County
11.17.25
Better Buzz Coffee Roasters keeps the momentum going in Orange County with three cafés opening this fall. The San Diego favorite is known for its fun, creative drinks, freshly roasted coffee and bright neighborhood atmosphere. Each new spot will offer an exclusive drink for its first month, plus early-morning celebrations at 5 a.m. on opening day with giveaways while supplies last.
In Orange, the café on East Chapman Avenue just opened and is pouring a special Chocolate Cream Cold Brew topped with chocolate vanilla cold cream and cocoa. Placentia is next, opening Nov. 21, and will introduce a Gingerbread Best Drink Ever with gingerbread chai cold cream, a gingerbread cookie and chai spices.
Anaheim joins the lineup on Dec. 18 with a Churro Best Drink Ever, finished with horchata cold cream, cinnamon sugar and a mini churro.
Better Buzz first started as a college coffee cart in 2002 and has grown into a go-to stop for everything from the Best Drink Ever to organic coffees roasted weekly. LIFE’S BETTER BUZZED® is the motto, and now more OC communities get to experience it.
Locations:
Orange | 4420 E. Chapman Ave. | Now open
Placentia | 1285 E. Imperial Hwy. | Opening Nov. 21
Anaheim | 2026 E. Lincoln Ave. | Opening Dec. 18
