I ordered the wildflower latte and a pretzel breakfast sandwich. Both were fantastic! I'd happily order again or try some of the other enticing items on the menu. It's clean with good seating.

(Sorry if I forgot anyone else, I mainly see them when I'm in) Overall great & efficient service. A good amount of seating indoors and outdoors! The atmosphere is spacious and has good air conditioning on hot days. I love their gluten free banana loaf bread! It's so soft and the banana chunks are mouth watering! They have ceremonial grade matcha; just look at that vibrant green :) They're matcha isn't overly sweet but if you want more sweetener, they're happy to add more. Their seasonal blueberry bliss matcha is really good with chunks of mini berries. I also like how they have a reward system to get points with each purchase for future perks! Highly recommend :)

Cute place to sit down and catch up but can be a little loud inside. The server was really friendly and took the time to answer questions and provide recommendations. They had mushroom type coffee drinks. Ordered the Blueberry Matcha Latte (which was okay) but the Chagaccino was much better in my opinion. First time trying mushroom coffee.

It was made with bourbon reduction, maple, hickory, sea salt, and of course, espresso & milk. Although I couldn't really taste the bourbon, all the other flavors were present from the sweet maple, smokey hickory, and occasional bursts of sea salt. Oh, and a great roast of coffee. This was a coffee drink I'd come back for again and again. The pastry case looked inviting but I was stuffed from lunch so passed. But dang, they amazed me with that smokey maple latte!

Baked goods - 5/5, I LOVE the new chicken pot pie croissant-like pastry!!! The filling is sooo delicious. Sconkies - 5/5, the scone x cookie hybrid is also a favorite. I like the density and their flavors are so fun and unique! Kimchi musubi croissant - 4/5, is very unique and savory. But can be quite salty, better heated up. Yuzu black tea - 5/5, I appreciate their decaf menu because I don't usually drink coffee or caffeinated teas. This iced tea is my new go-to. I like that it's not as sweet as their usual decaf selection.

The Bottom Line Up Front: In a world filled with…read morecorporations masquerading as sophisticated boutiques, Philz is a growing chain that still retains a cozy atmosphere while serving up great coffee. I've been to other Philz, but this review will focus on this Brea location. The Drink: I got the seasonal salted caramel cold brew and it was delicious. Picture Starbucks' caramel macchiato but less sweet and with less acidic espresso. This Philz drink was smooth and creamy, with enough caffeine kick to keep me powered throughout the day. The Service: Our barista was very knowledgeable and offered a few suggestions and a couple of samples so that I could make the right selection. Grade A service! The Setting: Located in the new section of Brea Mall, this Philz location is a freestanding building so you have to walk outside of the mall to access it from the southwest side. There's no street parking, so you'll need to park in the large parking structure across from Nordstrom (currently...but they are doing more construction so this could change in the future). The Conclusion: As part of a franchise that doesn't act like one, the Brea location of Philz offers great coffee with excellent customer service.

For instance, they had horchata and strawberry & cream lattes. During my hour stay here I went with their hot milk tea. I ended up loving it. It was a little on the sweeter side but it was really yummy and nice. I love that they use organic syrups. I noticed their matchas are ceremonial and they have alternative milks. Everyone I came with enjoyed their drink. The inside is smaller but it is cute. They have 2 larger tables and some smaller sitting areas. I recommend if you are looking for something caffeinated in the area.

Unfortunately, they weren't available that day, so that'll have to wait until my next visit. Instead, I tried their signature The Usual and the Strawberries & Cream Latte, and both were awesome! The Usual was smooth and well-balanced, while the Strawberry & Cream Latte was creamy, refreshing, and not overly sweet. You can tell they put care into their drinks. The staff was genuinely friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. Even though I didn't get to try what I originally came for, I left impressed. Looking forward to coming back for those mochi balls--and of course, another latte!

After reading the reviews, I thought I'd take the risk and give Teatopia a chance and I am so glad I did. We ordered at the kiosk, but failed to notice a posted sign that said they were out of green grape, which is one of the things we ordered. When only one drink came out, the super sweet girl behind the counter offered to make any drink from the menu for us -- regardless of value. MATCHA EINSPANNER: 4/5. Truly surprised by how good this was. Matcha forward, super creamy. 100% sweetness was just right to me. I just found my local spot for when I don't feel like making the trip to GG or Westminster. LYCHEE TEA: 4/5. 100% sweetness here was a little too sweet for me, but my partner loved it. The flavor of the tea itself was delicious.
