Tesoro Blend
Stephanie F.

If you love coffee, definitely check out Philz. As others have mentioned, they do have a more limited menu. However, quality definitely beats quantity. I tried the Tesoro, which is a medium blend with a nice caramel undertone. My friends ordered the iced Rosé coffee, and it sounds (and looks!) good. There is also a limited food menu, but the breakfast burritos are yummy and filling! I definitely can't wait to go back and try other blends. In addition to great coffee, Philz is doing their part to help the environment by using compostable lids and paper cups. Get your coffee fix and feel good about doing your part as well!

Rose Ecstatic Iced Coffee

Highly disgusted. My friend and I decided to try out there coffee for the first Time. To see what was the hype about yesterday morning. I've drunk it. An it was okay But I never thought to check the inside or swerl a spoon around it just to mixed the flavor like I normally would do. I drunk the coffee Half way thru I went to pour out the remaining of the coffee that was left I see this nasty piece of which looks like a sponge I called addressed the problem. And they offered a refund but it's not about that to me. It could have been anything on that sponge This is disgusting and unacceptable it PLEASE CHECK YOUR COFFEE!!!!!

Mint Mojito Iced Coffee

So happy that Philz Coffee made a move in the Midwest! I've craved the mint mojito iced coffee some the last time I was visiting California. The baristas were very kind and friendly. The cafe itself is located in a very walkable area, with that said there isn't much street parking so we did a quick run in and just put our hazards on in the little cul de sac. The cafe was much larger than I expected and very welcoming and inviting. I'm definitely come back to visit when I'm in the area again.

Mocca - terrible. It didn't taste like a Mocca. Cocoa - terrible. But at least it had a taste of cocoa. They even don't have sugar on the table that you can use. You have to tell them to do it for you if you need more sweet coffee

Fun space at the Lincoln park location!

If you're looking for a delicious cold brew, Philz is the way to go. I wake up every morning craving a Philtered Soul Cold Brew with Creamy Almond Milk and Sweet Sugar. More often than not, it's how I start my day. I love Philz and definitely recommend trying it. TIP: if you're ordering between 8-9:30am, order ahead on the app! It's extremely user friendly and always very timely.

Soft opening in Lincoln Park. Incredibly friendly staff, great coffee and pleasant atmosphere. Happy to have Philz right near my workplace!

**This review is for the Thursday soft opening** I work in the area and decided to stop by to check out Philz for the soft opening. A roommate of mine gifted me some beans from Philz last year and I loved them but until today I had never been inside one of their locations. I didn't know what to expect but I was thoroughly impressed. Philz is a different kind of coffee shop experience. It's a coffee-forward, barista-forward place. Rather than serving espresso drinks, Philz has a variety of different coffee blends with recommended ways to drink (medium cream, add honey, etc.). You walk up to the barista counter to place your order instead of at the cash register. I have to say that I loved this aspect! The baristas here are incredibly warm and inviting. They are happy to discuss your tastes and preferences, giving recommendations for blends and styles. Not only is this super helpful but it encouraged warm interaction. I felt welcomed rather than like a coffee-illiterate nuisance (which other coffee shops have made me feel like!). After you speak with a barista to place your order, head over to the register to pay. It was packed, which is to be expected for a soft opening. The surprise, however, was how quick and friendly the service was before they're even open. I was expecting a long wait but I was up to the barista counter very quickly. I'm so thrilled this Philz is in the neighborhood and I'm excited to stop by again.

I won't repeat whatever I wrote in my (also 5 star) review at the Wicker Park location. Just want to say: Their new drink iced coffee Rose was delicious and I love how they don't skimp you on liquid. They really fill it to the top and like an idiot, even though I was warned, spilled a little as I slid it over to myself. The staff member was incredibly nice about it and just fun to talk to!

Literally my favorite coffee shop now. Not only is their space super nice with plenty of seating for doing work, but the coffee is absolutely delicious. I've gotten the mojito and rosé and both are so good. My favorite is the rosé so far. Definitely get both the house way- sweet and creamy is the way to go. I've also tried the Philz bagel which was pretty good. Cream cheese, cucumbers and tomatoes- a very filling breakfast. It comes on an everything bagel but you can substitute with another bagel type if you wish. They were also giving out samples of their avocado toast which has slices of hard boiled egg on it- also delicious. Ordering is a bit different- you order at the counter first where the baristas will make your drink. Then you go to the register to pay. Ive been here 2 times already and staff is always super friendly even at 7am on a Saturday. It definitely gets super crowded and loud during peak hours which just speaks to how popular this place is. Be prepared to wait in a long line if you come during the rush!

Came to Chicago with my friends from high school and one of them highly recommended the mint mojito coffee. Coffee definitely did not disappoint, and would highly recommend visiting the coffee store chain wherever it is available! Refreshing and chilled is the best way to get the mojito

Iced Coffee Rosé
Kate W.

The BEST Philz Coffee I had so far! I am from NYC so I am going to miss coming here. The interior design is so pretty. There is a wall mural near the back that is so beautiful. It can get really crowded during the day so it is a bit hard to find seats. I ordered the Iced Coffee Rosé and Chocolate Croissant and it was soooo delicious. We actually got the same items at another Philz Coffee location and it wasn't as good as this one! I definitely recommend making a stop here for breakfast if you are in the area. Nice neighborhood too. Lots of colleges nearby.

There's a fair amount of seating considering the size of the place. Wasn't able to get a spot today unfortunately, but we did go at a busy time on a Sunday morning.

Even though we were seated at a regular table, the place had a comfortable vibe and it was easy to settle into. The counter women were efficient, nice, and filled our orders promptly. They did give my friend the wrong size coffee at first, but corrected it quickly and without any problem. One thing I didn't love: my cappuccino was served in a Styrofoam cup while we were staying there. If you're drinking in, it really should come on a ceramic cup and saucer. Save the Styrofoam for takeout! The best part was that we stayed for a couple of hours and no one hovered over us, or made us feel like we had to leave. As for the coffee itself, it was just okay. Not bad, but not memorable either. That's a shame too, because the space is so comfy. Still, there are plenty of other coffee spots on the North Side - and this just gives me a reason to explore others in the neighborhood.

It's creamy, sweet but not too sweet, and overall a great flavor profile. It seems like a great place to study or work as well. You can often find many people working diligently (and relatively quietly) so the ambiance is great. I don't often write such low of a review but the one star is for the staff. On most occasions I've only encountered the friendliest of people - in fact the first time I visited and had a hard time choosing a drink, the individual at the register was so kind and helped me make a choice based on what I typically enjoy at other coffee shops. However today I had the absolute WORST experience where the barista was so rude to me after they took my order wrong. All I wanted was the coffee I ordered and calmly explained how there must have been a mix up. In return I was basically shamed multiple times for asking for the right coffee instead of the one they tried to give me and I was just baffled by how passive aggressive the staff member was. My family and I will not be returning to this location again. Go for the coffee and the vibes but just be extra careful to triple check your order is taken correctly at the register.
