Philz Coffee is a wonderful addition to the ever-expanding Brea Mall. I've tried their Tiramisu Latte. Surprisingly super smooth for an iced latte. Rich and creamy tiramisu flavor with perfect balance of coffee flavor. Not powdery at all. I've also had their Iced Mint Mojito which is minty and refreshing with bold coffee flavor. My new favorite is their Campfire S'mores. Great blend of coffee & cream, marshmallow swirl, cinnamon, and cocoa flavor. There's also marshmallows on top but haven't actually eaten them as I usually just sip through their lid. Service has been great. Baristas are super friendly. Drinks would arrive within a few minutes. When they hand the drink, they'd tell me to let them know if the drink is perfect or how the drink is. They'll also ask if I would like a lid. There's plenty of indoor seating although usually packed with patrons. There's also a few tables outside. I love their coffee drinks. Will be back for another visit.

I am a regular at the Whittier location and up until now it has been my favorite. They have competition! I cannot fully put into words how friendly and welcoming the staff is here! Amazing service, the quality of the drinks is stellar, and the ambiance is so fun and cozy! Very nice outside seating. Highly recommend!

Seasonal salted caramel cold brew -- delicious.

The Bottom Line Up Front: In a world filled with corporations 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.

Trying their new flavor

Saw they have a Philz in Brea Mall. Trying their feature Caramel Coconut. Requested for light sugar and still tasted too sweet. Ordered through the app and it was easy and fast. The inside was freezing cold, so I ordered a hot version of Caramel Coconut. Tastes pretty good except a bit too sweet.

If you are tired of standard lattes and want a coffee that is genuinely tailored to your taste, Philz is a must-visit! Unlike typical cafes, every single cup is brewed as an individual pour-over using their own custom bean blends. This location has spacious seating and lots of outlets for working remotely as well!

Brea was long overdue to have its own PHILZ location. I have to admit the new remodel of the mall is spectacular for the city of Brea. I particularly really love the Phil'z location, because it is so easy to get to being on the outside of the mall as well as having a small play area on the outside for the little ones to enjoy or to sit down and enjoy your Philz Coffee. My personal go to is always gonna be the mint Mojito or the iced rosé, but that does not dim the light on their seasonal menu. I just had the chance to check out the butterscotch cold brew, and if you're a beer fan, this is the coffee version of it. The butterscotch flavors were very rich and deep that appeared so great with their coffee. I also have just become the biggest fan of their breakfast burritos. You can never go wrong with the green hatch chili burrito!

So grateful to have a Philz Coffee close to home! Love this location, the service was great, and it's such a nice spot to catch up with a friend while sipping on their mint mojito iced coffee.

The cutest lights!

I was wanting a caffeine fix and saw that Philz is now open at the Brea Mall! It's located in the newer section of the mall, with construction still all around it. I love the spaciousness of this location. It's bigger than other Philz I've been to and there's plenty of seating. The decor is very cute, I especially love the "Cup of Love" lighting inside! What a clever way to light up the cafe! The outside of the shop opens up to an astro-turf lawn with seating and an area where kids could play, so that's nice. The have a couple new limited drink offerings: Salted Butterscotch or the Caramel Coconut cold brews. I decided to forgo on my usual Mint Mojito and try the caramel coconut cold brew and I'm so glad I did. It was so good - perfectly sweet but I could still taste coffee. The baristas were super friendly and helpful, and didn't make me feel rushed at all even when I was standing in line forever trying to download their new app. Luckily I was the only one in line at the time!

Terosa! Omg!!!! I need another one
Korie B.

This place was so dope I lived the vibes and the aesthetic It's well priced and great serving sizes. The service was super friendly and they were patient with us as first timers. I love that they tell you to taste it after they make it to make sure you like it!!! Con: my croissants weren't warmed through

Coffee cake muffin

I go to Philz Coffee often near my work, and their staple drinks are usually solid, which is why this experience stood out -- unfortunately not in a good way. We visited the Brea Mall location around 10am. There was no line or anyone else waiting for their orders, so we ordered two drinks and a muffin right away. Even though I'm sure they had a few online orders to work through, that was totally fine -- we waited patiently in the large seating area. Our drinks came out after a few minutes, but the muffin didn't. We continued waiting, and it seemed like our muffin order had been forgotten. My husband politely asked about it, but there was no apology or acknowledgment of the delay. Again, not a huge deal -- we just wanted the muffin. We stood near the pickup area for several more minutes while the employees were chatting, and another five minutes went by. It was frustrating trying to understand why heating up one muffin was taking so long. When we finally received the muffin, we needed napkins, but none were available in the seating area, so we had to ask again. At that point, it felt like we were constantly interrupting workers who didn't seem interested in helping. I still like Philz and will continue going to other locations, but this particular visit at the Brea Mall location was disappointing due to slow service and lack of attentiveness. Beautiful location, poor service.

drink: iced mint mojito with almond milk. tasted perfect. I thoroughly enjoyed it. service: my barista was so kind! I really love mint, so I asked her for extra mint on the side and she gave it to me. the cashier was very sweet and kind as well. ambiance: tons of indoor seating and a handful of outdoor seating as well. there is a decent amount of outlets so it should be a good place to study and do some work.

Look up!!!  Cup Of Love.

Glad to see a Philz Coffee in Brea now. This is the right location for this brand and it looks like the logo was updated since my last visit to the Pasadena location? All coffees are made by cup to order and to your taste. I recommend the Philtered Soul or Tesora options. The secret to Philz Coffee is that the use dark brown sugar and heavy whipping cream to make it taste better. You should try Philz! They were featured in the TV series 'Silicon Valley' since they started in the Bay Area.

Jenny W.

Awesome addition to the Brea Mall! Every time we go there, the service is quick and friendly. Mint Mojito is our go to! They have pastries here which are good too! There's plenty of seating inside, but the best part is that just outside is the new play/relax seating area of the mall. Great place to relax with your drink and people watch or enjoy the sunset.

Yesterday at 2:06 PM, I ordered two cups of coffee and a lemon bread, but they only gave me the coffee. I realized that I didn't receive the bread after I had already left the store. Can i get a refund?

Hi Soso. So sorry to hear you left without your whole order! Sometimes food and drinks are picked up from separate areas, depending on store operations. Please reach out to us directly at info@philzcoffee.com with your order info, so we can follow…

Quite a bit of indoor seating, but more for single people (not too many table tops available). But they do have a restroom inside that's nice and modern. The entire inside is modern designed which is unique and fun to look at everything. There are a few pastry options here, that I'll definitely have to try next time! They also have a LARGE SELECTION OF MATCHA drinks. I ordered: *iced matcha latte with guava cold foam (10/10): the guava was very light but balanced well with the matcha. The matcha was very smooth and creamy. They also have a loyalty program here which always makes me want to return and earn points towards a free drink! I will definitely be a returning customer here!

Service used to be so good, but I'm honestly not sure what happened. The workers literally take…read moretheir time even when the shop is clearly busy. As I'm writing this, one of the workers has been taking over 10 minutes just to whisk some matcha... like, where is the sense of urgency? Quality over quantity, of course, and I understand that drinks take time to make properly, but there's a difference between taking your time to make something right and just moving like you don't care that customers are waiting. The lady working right now genuinely seems like she doesn't give a fuck and is just working on her own time. Definitely disappointing compared to how good the service used to be. Update: Just have this cup sitting with milk and ice...

Omg! I just moved to the North OC area, and I'm happy to say I've found one of my new go-to coffee…read moreshop study spots in the area! :) I'm currently studying for a big exam, and it's been surprisingly challenging finding coffee shops to study at with the beautiful, modern, aesthetic ambience that makes me happy, without feeling anxious there won't be enough seats or space when I get there, esp since I have to drive a decent amount to get to cafes. I've been getting a little stir crazy at home and finally making the trek here was so worth it-- I felt more motivated than ever to get work done with a tasty treat. I'm not sure if it's because CSUF just started this week, or because I came on a Friday morning, but it was really spacious and open with tons of outlets (almost at each table). Not sure how other days are, but I'd love to bring my study group friends here in the future, since it's so hard to find places with enough space for study groups! Not to mention the clean bathroom haha and good wifi haha The staff here is also incredibly sweet and friendly, making it a comfortable and good experience. Because it was my first time, I asked the barista about her recommendation, and she also asked my general preferences to cater to my taste, and I ended up with a seasonal Birthday Cake Americano at half sweetness (since I don't have much of a sweet tooth). It was perfect for me! I don't usually get Americanos and have a sensitive stomach rn, but it was delicious and kind on my stomach lol. I also got a ham and cheese croissant, and maybe it could've been heated up a little more, but I did wait a bit to eat it, so it was no big deal. The other barista was also so sweet in answering my many questions haha The only struggle as others have mentioned is the parking - I ended up parking at the retail parking nearby, which had plenty of spots but can get pretty pricey, and it sounds like you can park in the areas others have mentioned still (like The Hub I guess has "New Here" parking spots or the employee parking spots?), so I'll need to look more next time. But there's quite a bit around the area within walking distance, you can easily make a day out of it too. Also since it is at the first floor of an apartment in a college town, there will be students going in and out, so just be prepared for that haha -- reminded me of dorm days, and I'm glad students have a spot like this :) Overall, the yummy coffee, amazing vibe and beautiful ambiance, especially as a study spot, alongside the kind and comfortable service has been just what I've been looking for in a coffee shop around here, and I'm excited to return! Thank you New Here!

Vanilla Thesis is the best better than probably all the rest…read moreThe coffee is so tasty Not nasty or pasty Their cheese and ham croissant is also bomb better than being made by mom One thing to note about this place, the parking sucks. But fear not, you can go into the structure, park in one of the "employee only" spots, and just tell them which spot and you're golden (wish I knew that before I came and parked across the street). Also, another reason why this place is great is that it's not full at all. Might be because of the parking situation, but the place is near empty which makes it have a nice luxury vibe. Their Vanilla Thesis drink at 50% sweet is soooo good. It's a great blend of coffee and tastes great. You can totally taste the vanilla. Their ham and cheese croissant is also great.

Seems like Communitea Coffee has cracked the code to what I-- at least-- am wanting from a coffee…read moreshop, starting with matcha. I got the earl grey matcha which are two of my favorite flavors it was of course delicious. Food: They had just rolled out a new menu that includes a slice of sourdough bread and butter for 5$. I'm really working on cutting out the sweet treats (which they have plenty of) so it was perfect for me. They also have wholesome foods such as breakfast sandwiches and burritos which-- if I didn't have dinner plans after my study session-- is always appreciated as too often the food at coffee shops are sugary pastries and a bunch of empty calories. Service was friendly and personable. Communitea shows its dedication to being a warm, welcoming third-space environment. There is a shelf filled with board games and a kids play area (if you have one of those). They have assorted merchandise like coffee beans, plants, mugs, chips & snacks, etc.. There were flyers for all types of events throughout the month. I don't often write reviews I don't even live anywhere near Brea, but I would love to see this business thrive if not expand.

Everything about my experience here was wonderful and very hospitable BESIDES my coffee,…read moreunfortunately for me, the coffee was way too bitter for my liking. The baristas were very friendly and accommodating and added extra syrup to try and help my latte and offered to switch it out for me too; in the end I opted for a refund. I tried their iced pumpkin latte with salted maple cold foam (the foam was delicious) but just way too bitter espresso for my liking. Otherwise, they have a good amount of indoor seating with plenty of room for strollers - it's very kid friendly here. They have a kids toy play area in the back corner along with a game chest!!! & There is a restroom available inside and everything was pretty clean too.
