    Daughter loves this place Now I know why Rose Iced Coffee an assortment of yummy desserts and the coffee its very special tastes fresh and bold but not bitter wish i could duplicate this at home!!!!

    Pick up and order counters
    Brendon N.

    Love this Phil'z location! Located just around the corner from Burlingame Ave, this spot is almost always poppin'. For those who haven't been, you order with a person at a counter, then wait for your drink to be made. They don't do fancy lattes or anything here, just classic pour over style coffee. The differences come in the flavor notes in the bean blend(s) you choose. You can also mix more than one blend -- my favorite combo is the Philtered Soul & Tesora! You also get to select your "sweet and creaminess" levels. They have a few milk alternatives, as well as sugar alternatives like honey. SEATING; Inside along the pick-up counter, they only have a couple small tables and a couch that is often used for people to wait for their order. There are a few more tables and some window seating up front by the door and register. Outside, there are three longer tables and chairs to enjoy your coffee and people watch. They are big enough to accommodate groups of 4-6, or a couple smaller groups sharing. COFFEE: They have all the standard options for the Phil'z menu, plus new and seasonal items. They sell bags of coffee grounds and mugs as well, so you can enjoy it at home. You can get most drinks hot or iced, and they even have some fun "Featured Creations" such as the Iced Mint Mojito, Gingersnap, Iced Coffee Rosé, and Cold Brew. They also sell large bottles of their cold brew to take to-go. We've had them in our fridge on several occasions over the years! FOOD: They have a variety of pastries and sweets, along with more hearty options such as burritos and fancy toasts! I've tried many of their food items, and never been disappointed. SERVICE: Everybody I've ever interacted with has been very friendly. The people behind the bar making the coffee work super hard, yet always want to make sure your order is to your liking. The pour over style can take longer than what people are used to, so be patient, especially if it's busy. OVERALL: This is a great spot to grab some coffee and hang, or take your cup for a stroll up and down Burlingame Ave for some quality people (and dog!) watching. They also have an App that you can use to order ahead and have your coffee ready when you arrive! Shout out to the awesome staff here, I look forward to my visits each time! IG: @bbnem.eats

    It was definitely not "made with love"

    Usually this place does a good coffee. Not sure what happened today. I ordered the Philtered Soul (hot). The coffee tasted bitter like it was a day old coffee. But it also had an "oil swirl" in the coffee itself.

    One of my favorite coffee places from the Bay Area. Really enjoy this location for taking a stroll through downtown Burlingame. this particular location has some limited, indoor seating, but also some outdoor tables. Free WiFi and bathroom with baby changing table. My go to drink: iced mint Mojito (half oat milk, half creamy, keep it sweet).

    I don't mind spending a few more dollars and waiting longer for a good coffee. Philz makes each cup to order and they are good at customizing. I'm usually in a hurry or impatient and get a fast to go drink but sometimes I like to get something better and relax. Good place to hang out.

    (Ryan Reynolds voiceover) The vibe is fab Philz hidden in plain sight off of Burlingame in Burlingame. Bianca warmly greeted me! I was in dire medical need of cyclic AMP and had to replenish my phosphodiesterase inhibitors as many of you already know. When I'm topped off, anything is possible! Isn't that right, ladies? Back to the review...the young lady expertly recommended the Ecstatic Iced Coffee. Large, Light Cream, Light Oat Milk aka Bianca's Way. It is the perfect drink for the sweltering 86° summer heat outside. The Pesto Chicken Sandwich without the sandwich as we do it in LA was absolutely delish. Would order everything again! Much thanks, Bianca! Woohoo!

    I try to avoid chain coffee shop but wanted to try this locals' favorite as so many people raves about it. Unfortunately, it didn't meet my expectations. I was disappointed to learn that they didn't offer any espresso drinks, only various types of drip coffee. The atmosphere and decor of the place were not my cup of tea plus parking in downtown Burlingame is a hassle. While the coffee itself was decent, it wasn't anything exceptional that would justify returning. I found myself longing for something more sophisticated and creative, but alas, it was not to be. While it might be a decent option for drip coffee, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone looking for a broader range of coffee options or an elevated coffee experience the lack of espresso options really made the delicious for me.

    Really liked this cute cafe - it's located in the Downtown Burlingame area, so parking might be…read morechallenging, but there's a lot of public parking lots available with a short walk away. There's a limited number of seats inside, but they also have a small outdoor patio as well. Good place to hang out and chill if you're able to grab a seat. I ordered the Gui Hua Oat Latte, since that sounded pretty unique. There was other drinks that I was interested in trying like some of the matcha drinks, but I rarely see an osmanthus-inspired drink at coffee shops. It is made already with oat milk, so I didn't have to ask for any milk substitutions. I thought it was pretty good in terms of a latte, however, I wish the osmanthus flavor was a little stronger. The barista mentioned that the latte would have more of a floral taste, but it felt pretty faint. Cost was pretty similar to other coffee shops in the area, since it was $8-9 for my drink with oat milk already included. Other than that, would come back if I'm ever back in the area. I like the cozy vibes and fun drinks that they have!

    1st time trying this unique cafe in Burlingame. Had a delicious Guihua Oat Latte (osmanthus tea…read moresyrup) which you can get hot or iced and with coffee or matcha. Contemporary interior with only some seating in the front, but they also have a back patio with more seating. Very clean bathroom which is always a plus. Good amount of metered parking nearby and around the corner. Would definitely stop by again to try more of their contemporary drinks.

We came on a Saturday around 7pm and there was no line but the place was lively, we got lucky and didn't have to wait, probably because most people were still at dinner. Fork ordered: Tiramisu and a latte The latte was good. Nothing to get excited over, but well made. The tiramisu is a standout. It has this nice crunchy chocolate shell on the outside with a smooth, creamy center and just the right hint of coffee. As a tiramisu fiend, this is one I'd absolutely come back for. Spoon ordered: French flan I don't usually go for flan, but this one is different!!! I do absolutely love the custard layer in a fruit tart, so imagine that with a firmer texture and a richer vanilla flavor. It sits in this perfectly thin, almost hidden pie-like crust. It's honestly divine and highly recommended. Before we leave, we typically get a treat for the next morning to have with our chai. I love the banana bread and Fork goes for the croissant. Overall, such a charming spot for dessert and coffee, especially if you can grab a table outside.
