Cold Stone La Jolla San Diego Reviews
Woke up to a lively coffee and a pastry to start the day. First time I came was a little disappointing but they really went out of their way to fix things.
Got to see Tom, Vincent, and Karen tonight. Always happy to see them but was a treat to see them together. Tried the new strawberry matcha, it was delicious! Thank you!
Cashier was so nice and attentive!!! The place was lively and friendly. Excellent service and we were given our coffee and food quickly. Will definitely be coming back!
This place is great!! Ashley took my order today in the morning and she was so knowledgeable about the menu items and was very patient when I was trying to decide what to get. She recommended a iced matcha latte with oat milk and with their new banana cold cream, and it was the most delicious drink ever!!! Definitely coming back again soon!!!
Shoutout to Rachel at Better Buzz Coffee for being so kind and welcoming! She made the experience even better with her great energy and customer service. I ordered the banana pudding best drink ever and it was absolutely delicious. Will definitely be coming back! ☕️🍌
The orange matcha latte was amazing. I would have never dreamt up that combo, but will still be dreaming of it when my vacation is over. The generously portioned avo toast was delicious! We ate on a nice patio in a courtyard.
Had a great service experience! Great feta avocado toast. Fresh, zesty and an explosion of flavor. But especially grateful for the help I recieved from one of the cashiers, Esther. Her lovely smile and generous advice really made the wait worth it. This store is lucky to have someone like her.
I love their banana bread. I went in today and the barista was very nice and suggested the vanilla bean latte. It was the perfect amount of sweetness for me. Their team was so nice and the banana bread was amazing! Will come back. Also they did amazing during the parade!!
I stopped by Better Buzz Coffee in La Jolla and absolutely loved it! I got the maple matcha and it was delicious perfectly balanced and not too sweet. The service was super nice and welcoming, which made the visit even better. The shop itself is very clean, neat, and well-organized a great spot to relax or grab a drink on the go. Definitely recommend!
A charming coffee shop nestled in the heart of La Jolla, offering both cozy indoor seating and a breezy outdoor hangout spot.

This was a busy little cafe but the coffee was really good. The location was centralized and an easily accessible spot. It didnt take long to get the coffee. To see the full review, check out my social channels YT: theelite_listyt Tiktok: theexecutivelist IG: theelite_list FB: The Elite List
This was my first time to this coffee shop. My second time to La Jolla. This was a very good find. I didn’t try any of the pastries or food although they did look very yummy. However, I did have the very best cold brew that I’ve ever had. It was a cinnamon cold brew that I know wasn’t a skinny version and may have had quite a bit of sugar, but it was worth every sip if I ever get back to La Jolla this is a must stop.
I got the Iced Butterscotch Latte at Better Buzz. I loved this location in La Jolla! It’s very spacious, open, and has plenty of seats inside/outside. Although could get busy, the service is still great. I recommend getting coffee here and walking down to the beach to enjoy some great views!
Honestly overhyped. The coffee itself was super mid. The location isn’t even that close to the beach. Can definitely get better coffee with less of a line/wait time elsewhere.
My first time trying a Better Buzz. The location is great. But oh wow the coffee is horrible. Perhaps if you get flavored drinks or some of their special drinks they will be alright. However, if you just like good coffee don’t bother. I’m considering just throwing mine out.
Great customer service they were so kind, but they did mess up my order. I got a nitro cold brew and thought it tasted off but it was my first time at better buzz. So recently went to another better buzz in mission valley and ordered a nitro cold brew again just to give it another chance. The mission valley better buzz was great, nothing wrong with it at all. I realize now that the La Jolla better buzz just gave me a regular cold brew. I am happy I tried better buzz again though it was just this location they made a mistake on since.
We had two açaí bowls and two flat whites. Unfortunately, the açaí was completely frozen, so we could not eat it for the first 25 minutes, and the flavor of the mixture was not so tasty. The flat white tasted more like a latte, and when I mentioned that it had too much milk, the barista seemed offended and started explaining that a flat white is simply without foam but has the same amount of milk. For a barista, it was quite surprising not to know the proper milk-to-coffee ratio for a flat white, and his reaction toward a customer was rather unprofessional. On a positive note, the girl working next to him was very kind and understanding and kindly made me a new one with less milk. The atmosphere is nice, and the café is conveniently located in the city center, very close to the sea.
Nice atmosphere. Bad matcha. On the menu it doesnt say the matcha is sweetened. I order a matcha latte with coconut milk thinking it'll be unsweetened and I get it and its super sweet. Also can't taste the matcha at all. Tastes like sweet coconut milk. I never waste my drinks but I threw half of this away....
