Buzzberry

I've been to Buzzberry's drive through on multiple occasions and it has never disappointed. They have friendly employees, an awesome coffee selection, homemade almond milk, and great smoothies too.

It wasn't until recently that I decided to go inside, and I was super impressed. Buzzberry has an incredible food menu too! I had one of their bran muffins and it was delish. The barista helping out was telling me about many of their other award winning pastries as well. I guess I'll have to return soon for a scone or lemon blueberry muffin. I also noticed several people eating breakfast burritos. They looked delicious! I will absolutely be returning soon for one of those - and the great news is that they serve breakfast all day.

In addition to all of the above, there is free wifi that works well, plenty of seating, clean restrooms, art from local artists on the walls, and both indoor and outdoor seating. If I lived just a little bit closer, this would be my go-to coffee shop. They tend to have Yelp check-in offers as well, which of course, I don't remember to use until after I order.

As others have commented, you will pay a bit of a premium for all of these things, but I think it's worth it to support local...

One last thing worth noting: I believe that Buzzberry is open 365 days a year (with limited hours on holidays). I will definitely be back soon.

Just happened on this place on a hot, hot day in July. We were all parched and so a beverage seemed like a good idea.

We went in and the choices were amazing. If you want a fruit-flavored smoothie, you will be able to get it here. Well, maybe not snozberry or butter-berry or Cajun-cream-pie-berry, but you will find the usual and not-so-usual flavors here.

And not to be outdone by Bob Evans and his famous singing cows, this place will serve you a daily special that will remind you of your mama fighting with the chickens on the homestead as they protect their precious eggs. Will it be spaghetti and meatballs or fish and chips today?

AND you can even get a good, imported beer here. This is heaven on a budget with comfortable chairs and lots of stuff on the walls to read.

Try buzzberry, you will be surprised!

I use to really love this place. But the last 6 months it's really gone down hill. The coffee is undrinkable multiple times cause they over steam the soy. The staff seems annoyed that your there. Then the topping in the cake, we muffin, was the "chocolate chip" muffin I got today. 6 chips!! It was under cooked to boot. For the price they charge it should be better food and customer service. I miss the old buzzberry

Unfortunately, buzzberry did not give me a good buzz. The concept got lost somehow because I really thought I was walking into a smoothie, frozen yogurt type of establishment but when we walked in, it was a cafe with a menu of sandwiches, smoothies, etc. I decided to place an order anyway since we were already there. I ordered the banana strawberry smoothie and hubby ordered some other type of smoothie. We decided to leave and enjoy our smoothies on our ride home.

The smoothies just wasn't that good. It tasted pre-made and not fresh. I could only finish half of my small 12 oz cup and hubby felt the same way. I really expected a lot better especially since we were charged close to $13 for two smoothies that we didn't even finish.

This is an update. We visited Buzzberry about a week ago and the interior has changed again. Some changes for the better and other for the worse. The drywall was nice but it seems to have lost a lot of its quirky charm I loved so much. I know you can't please everyone but I miss the old buzzberry.

The menu has gotten so big and a bit overwhelming. I only ordered a tea and fruit cup which were fine but I do miss the intimate cute setting it used to have.

Visiting friends in Scottsdale and they recommended buzzberry. I arrived at 6 am at the same time as the girl at the front counter and we were both still half asleep. However she was on the ball with suggesting the new pretzel bun for their breakfast sandwich. I chose chorizo as my meat for what she thought was an interesting combo--but OH was it delicious. Paired with a silky smooth Café au Lait and I was ready to tackle a full day of work and then drive to San Diego.

Having worked at a 24 hr coffeeshop for 3 years, finding another that could steal my heart has always been hard--but I have found that in buzzberry. What's more, is they have converted it from an old service station which I adore being a frequenter of Cocoa Cinnamon in Durham, NC--a coffeeshop which has adopted the same concept. Reclaiming dilapidated properties and making them into something beautiful and cozy like this is so encouraging and inspiring! If for no other reason, you should patronize buzzberry because of the welcoming atmosphere and their commitment to the community.

I full-heartedly give them 5 shining stars and wish them nothing but success as they continue to keep the buzz going.

As I sit here drinking my double espresso from the newly opened Buzzberry, I contemplate the whole support your local business model.

While I do my best to support local business I know that that the businesses I support are good. Why waste dollars on a business when they have a mediocre product and or service? While the service at Buzzberry was nothing special, I was floored when we asked where they source their coffee. Three teenage somethings just stood there and stared at us blankly. You see Buzzberry touts its self as "local, small-batch artisan coffee and 100% fruit smoothies", so you'd think that they would have a selling line, telling us all about the coffee they're proud to serve. Ultimately one of the three said where they get their coffee from but only after moments of debate. As someone who loves and buys artisan products I felt that this was pretty much unacceptable.

So perhaps I'm being to harsh on them? They have only been opened a month and they are super close to the our homestead. Though as I sit here sipping on my double espresso I figured that they were the ones being a little harsh. Bitter.

I've driven by this place a few times, and finally stopped in. I came for coffee and I would say first & foremost this place IS a coffee shop, but it's really (a lot) more.

I got an ice coffee & a chocolate chip muffin. The coffee was fine, but the muffin was REALLY good! I could have inquired, but I got the impression this place does most (all?) of there food in house. The muffin was very fresh (and I was here late morning) & was loaded w/chocolate chips. The other muffins looked good as well.

I'd be curious to come back to this place to try some other stuff. For breakfast they do a lot more than just pastries. They also have breakfast sandwiches & burritos. For lunch they have sandwiches & salads. They also do a different homemade dinner each night after 5 pm, which I'd be curious to try.

They also advertise an omelette bar on the weekend (or it may have been EITHER Saturday or Sunday...I can't remember) along w/mimosas an Bloody Mary's.

Speaking of which, this place serves alcohol (beer & wine at least, but I think they advertise cocktails).

In addition to ALL this they're also open 24 hrs & have a drive thru.

I'm sure this place saved my life. When I stumbled in, too dazed to read the menu, I said "Make something that will cool me off, please." (no, not hot coffee).

That's how I ended up drinking a Berry Blast smoothie. It was refreshing, and as I slowly came back to life, I looked around at the interior. We were sitting on a couple of couches, which I'm sure were in my Grandma's house back in the '50s, but the place was huge with somewhat interesting decor. I'm not sure if one could call it "hipster" in this neighborhood, and I didn't see any hipsters. In fact, I didn't see anyone except my own party of four. If Buzzberry, however, set up shop down near 7th and Roosevelt, it might become hipster.

If I find myself in this neighborhood and in need of resuscitation in the future, I'll be back for another smoothie. The hubby had a beer.

I buzzed into the drive-thru on Saturday morning to order a quick iced latte before heading out to the Polo Championships! To my surprise, a large iced skinny vanilla latte was over $6! I couldn't believe the price. It was good, but not great. It was a little watery and the flavor was off. Their drive-thru is convenient for folks on the go, but I was in line for about 7 minutes and I was only 1 car back. If you're in a hurry, I don't recommend the drive-thru. I will most likely stop at a different coffee shop when headed up north on the 101 next time!
