When our daughter is in town, she always wants Philz Coffee. It's in a great corner spot surrounded by a bunch of other great food places. Everyone is so friendly as soon as you enter. The order taker was very helpful and made sure we ordered our coffee exactly how we wanted it. When picking up the coffee they asked us to taste them to make sure they made them perfectly. This is such a great touch that I have not seen any other coffee shop ask. We all loved our drinks, especially the seasonal tiramisu latte. We will be back before our daughter visits again. read more

Philz Coffee - Tiramisu - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Mission Viejo, California

Philz is one of the better coffee chains out there, so we do make the trip down to this location from Irvine every couple weeks. I think we've been here at least 20 times already, and without fail, the staff have always been friendly and helpful! Always a clean and cozy environment too - great way to kick off our weekend. If you're unfamiliar with how to order at Philz, they have a bit of a different menu. You choose one of their bean types and then ask for sweetness and cream level. For example, I go for Philharmonic, medium sugar, medium cream. You really can't go wrong with most of their options. They also have these flavored drinks (i.e., Mint Mojito), but I tend to find these either too sweet or lacking flavor if you get it less sweet. But hey, to each their own! Also, I have no idea why, but their burritos are amazing: perfect size for 1 person, not too heavy, great flavor. read more

1st time at Philz Coffee! It was recommended to us by some friends. It is a cool little coffee place in Mission Viejo. Some inside and outside seating available. Staff were super kind, patient, and helpful as we were trying to decide what to try on our first visit. I ended up getting the Honey Haze ice coffee and our friend grabbed the Iced Mint Mojito. Excellent flavors. I tried to sip as slowly as possible lol. Definitely a place worth checking out! read more

This is one of my favorite local coffee shops! Their coffee is truly unique -- it has a rich, bold flavor that stands out from other places. I tried their new Blueberry blend, and it was surprisingly good. The service is always great, especially thanks to Darveen, who was very helpful and welcoming. The ambiance is cozy and clean, making it a perfect spot to relax. I'll definitely be coming back again! read more

This was only maybe my second time at Philz Coffee, and my first time at this location. The center has plenty of parking and inside there are a few tables where people were either chatting away or working on a laptop. Thr line moved quickly and my sister and I tried the new Tiramisu holiday drink. It was so delicious and full of flavor. The employees were extremely kind and even asked if everything tasted good incase they needed to make it better. I would highly recommend coming to this location. read more

I love this Philz location! THE MOOD: This Philz is in a great plaza! It's located right in the same plaza as some of my favorite places - Target, The Taco Stand, and Mendocino Farms - also right across from Five Guys. It's also conveniently located off of the freeway. That means more excuses for me to be in this plaza and to pick up my favorite coffee. :) There's tables on the inside and also on the outside patio. I don't think I've ever gone in and had trouble finding a place to sit. The overall vibe is friendly, inviting, and relaxed. THE FOOD (AND COFFEE): Every time I've gotten coffee here (and most recently food), it has not disappointed. My go to coffee order: -Philtered Soul (Hazelnut flavoring, maple, and caramel) -Creamy -Medium sweetness -Iced -Large I've also gotten the chocolate croissant and breakfast burrito - both were great. THE 'TUDE: I think what really wins me over is the great service and attitude at this Philz. Everyone is happy and super helpful, which makes my coffee experience even better. OVERALL: Great location, coffee (and food), and service - I'll definitely be back! read more

Couldn't stay away for too long! Stopped by on a Sunday and was greeted again by Erika (didn't get her name last time). Such great energy and so bubbly! Seemed the team was a bit backed up but we were greeted right away and told they'd be with us shortly. I was not in a rush so I didn't mind the wait, but I did appreciate them acknowledging and letting us know. While my previous visits here have only been during the weekend, I can see how you'd need to give yourself more time if stopping by on a weekday. One day I'll try something new, but until then I'm going to keep ordering my usual aromatic arabic! read more

Philz was always a San Francisco thing to me. It was something I looked forward to every time I went into the city. And then I found the one in Orange. And next the one in Huntington. Followed by this one here in Mission Viejo. It's the closest location to my house, but probably the one I visit the least. One of my favorite things to do is grab a Philz black tea and go for a walk... and the walks aren't quite as enjoyable around MV as they are around the Huntington Pier or Old Towne Orange. But I digress. I love Philz black tea with cream and honey. Just enough sweetness. I also appreciate the bit of mint that they put in the top. I love how you can order online; my orders have always been ready on time or slightly ahead of schedule at this location. The staff is always friendly and welcoming; I've always been greeted upon entering. There is seating indoors as well as on their patio. 2025: 31/100 read more

I would like to give a shout out to the Mission Viejo team. They are always helpful is giving suggestions that are not on the menu. A few weeks ago, I dropped by to see if there were any seasonal "gratitude"coffee beans left, as it was a missed item on my Xmas wish list. Of course, they were out since it was well past the holidays but I was still bummed. While waiting for my tiramisu coffee order, the gentleman that was helping me came out of the back . He gave me a partial sample bag of gratitude beans. Wow, made my day & week, Thank you all, read more

Philz Coffee - Here is pic of happiest. Such gratitude! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Mission Viejo, California

It's spacious and the ample parking makes this spot quite attractive. I like how open the inside of the store feels, with high ceilings, plenty of glass to let in natural light, and plenty of seating both indoor and outdoor for those who prefer to lounge. The food selection looked great, with pastries, hot items, and other grab-and-go selections. I've been here on two different occasions and the staff are generally very friendly and helpful, especially if you may not be accustomed to how to order a drink at Philz. The only downside was in my most recent visit, I had ordered online through the app and unfortunately my drink was not ready by the estimated time. Although I wanted to be understanding that it's still a relatively new spot and they may be understaffed, it was a bit annoying to see only 1 barista churning out all the drinks while a couple of the other associates are just laughing in the back (or maybe restocking items?). It's still a cool spot with drinks that are basically at the same price point of Starbucks but with much better flavors and quality! read more

Kaylee helped me and she gave me a sample of the gluten-free banana bread which I bought a piece of. It's so delicious!! This particular location is super clean and everyone is very nice, friendly and very efficient! They're also dog friendly so bring your puppies for a treat read more

I work in a nearby plaza and have been seeing "coming soon" on the Philz Coffee sign outside The Commons for months. I was so excited to hear that they have finally opened. Since then, I have become a regular! I have tried both the mint mojito and the honey haze, but honey haze has been my go to recently. I am usually not a coffee person, but the honey haze is perfectly sweet and mild on the coffee flavor. This is the perfect pick my up and the staff are always so friendly. They do have mobile ordering, which I suggest you use, sine I have seen some pretty long lines. The place is extremely spacious and has a bunch of tables and outlets suited for working or studying. The only complaint I have about this place is that they aren't open any earlier. I start my days around 5AM and already want my cup by then. Other than that, thank you for being my new go to! read more

Philz Coffee - Mint Mojito - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Mission Viejo, California

Awful customer service. After waiting in line for over 10 minutes, when I got to the front the lady at the register left me and my 2 year old waiting an additional 9 minutes to make food from previous orders while three other employees were talking and making drinks. Note in that time the mobile order showed my order would be ready in 4 minutes. When I noted that the lady was very condescending and said I should have put in the mobile order. In that time ny daughter opened a yogurt which we purchased and were not given a spoon for. I had asked for the number to contact for a follow up and was given an email. Sarah was i credibly rude and condescending. I don't ever leave negative reviews and am a big fan of Philz but this was awful service and I hope they do better i. The future. Our egg bites were also burnt. read more

This was my first visit to Philz Coffee, and I couldn't be more impressed! With Starbucks' quality declining, I was searching for a new go-to coffee spot--and Philz delivered. The service was outstanding, with the staff taking the time to explain the different coffee options. The coffee itself? Absolutely amazing. Noticing they sold beans, I asked if they would work in my espresso machine at home. The barista generously offered me a sample to try--what a great experience! I chose the aromatic Arabic blend, and the flavors were simply incredible. Philz is now my favorite coffee spot, and I can't wait for the Aliso Viejo location to open--it'll be even more convenient for me! read more

My first time at this establishment in general. Located in a new shopping center next to target in Mission Viejo, Philz is a different type of coffee shop with lots of options. I am not a big coffee drinker, but I love lattes and other fun drinks! I ordered a rose iced coffee, it was sweet and interesting! I don't think that I would get this drink again, but it was fun to try! The staff were nice and it was busy. I bought my husband a bag of beans to grind at home as well. The only negative I have is their lids don't stay on very well... as soon as I got in the car and put the coffee in my holder the lid came off and splashed all over:( I will be back if I'm in the area again! read more

AHHHH. So.. I'm from Vegas. Every time we're in Cali visiting my in-laws, I always need (want) to get Philz for the iced mint mojito. There is no dupe in Vegas that matches. I had no idea this location existed until I randomly did a Yelp search this morning and realized there's all of a sudden 2 locations closer to their house than the Bristol St location I usually visit. LOVE this location. It's so much closer to where we're staying, the parking lot has plenty of open parking, and everyone here is super nice from cashier to baristas. Shout out to Michael who took my order just now and was incredibly personable and friendly. I've been to a few Philz locations around SoCal and this is the nicest crew I've encountered. Highly recommend this location! read more

Cute little small shop. It's not big but there was a lot of people sitting and working. There are a lot of solo seating available. That's probably what it's there for lol. The menu seems small because they didn't have like lattes or americanos, etc. They did have a bunch of different flavored coffee, I'm sure you can make it into a latte or whatever? I'm not sure. I got the speciality coffee - honey haze . That was delicious!!! The sweet amount wasn't too much. It was really good. My mom got the mojito coffee and I thought that just tasted like straight mint . lol I'm not sure about that one... but I'd definitely come back to try the other speciality flavors. The wait is kind of long though, for your order. They must be taking very good care of your coffee lol. Omg and they had a cookie croissant which I didn't try but I will next time. That sounds crazy hahaha. read more

Philz came thruuuu! I got the Tesora (caramel, chocolate, nuts), Philz Way (medium sweet, medium cream). Sooo delicious!! The lovely staff member that helped me out made the experience even better. I wish I got her name to shout her out because she really went above and beyond with her kindness and recommendations. There are so many intriguing options - I want to try some of the different blends but the Tesora is just so good I don't know if I can haha. I came back again on a weekend and it was poppin. I did the mobile ordering that time and I love how they show you a photo of the barista making your drink. So cute!! Philz is a vibe. read more

I love Philz coffee and have missed it for a few years... usually only in the Bay Area. But I just saw the sign for Philz by my parent's house off Alicia.

This review was from 12/26/2023. Staff: Really nice staff I was impressed. The guy who took our order (green hair) was very patient, friendly, and overall a pleasure to work with. Also, the young lady at the far left was very nice as well. Quality/Quantity: Lots of really good breakfast options including baked goods and to my pleasant surprise breakfast burritos. We ordered the following: Chocolate muffin - really tasty Almond croissant - good with a tasty filling Chocolate croissant - good but needs more chocolate Bacon/Egg burrito - a little smaller but tasty Coffee- Very tasty Value: Seemed reasonable to me. Overall: I heard big things about this place from friends from the Bay Area who are familiar with the company. I absolutely love the ability to customize your coffee based upon their scale of cream and sweetness. Also when you pick up the drink they will adjust it further if needed. What a cool concept. What would turn this experience to a 5 star? Here are my thoughts. 1) Provide option to heat up baked goods. 2) Put napkins in the bag. 3) Add intercom system to announce when order is ready for those sitting outside. I asked the employee if it was okay to go outside and he said he would run out the order. Unfortunately after waiting awhile I went back inside to find my food in a bag and my drink. All good as my burrito was still hot. For anyone looking to eat outside there are about 8 tables for 2 and 1 larger table. Update - came in today for the second time and had a great experience. The young ladies were very friendly. I hope to see the adding of warming up of baked goods still in the future. I'll be back regardless. read more

This I becoming my daily coffee fix! I am never disappointed with my order. From quality of the coffee, the sweetness level, the flavors, everything just goes together so perfectly. The staff is very friendly and helpful with questions! Also a cute spot to get some work done if needed! I even hooked in my boss and coworkers! Their statement being "this is the best hot chocolate I have ever had!" Truly nothing on the menu disappoints! read more

Went back again today! I accidentally ordered wrong on the app adding cream to my drink instead of oat milk and they were so sweet and accommodating and swapped it as soon as possible. I appreciate it so much since I have a dairy allergy! Can't thank them enough there! Not many places go above and beyond like that! read more

Bad customer service! Today I went to get coffee around 11:30am with my friends. The cashier, who was male, was being rude when I asked how to redeem my membership points for the order. I don't go to Philz often because I don't live in the proximity of one, but it usually is one of my favorite coffee spots. That being said, I don't really know the whole app system yet. However, the vibe I got from him was not welcoming or helpful whatsoever. He even blatantly told the person in back of me, who ended up being my friend, "thank you for your patience" as if it's so bad to ask for help. Me and my friend both noted his impolite mannerisms. I would hope baristas are trained on hospitality, because this experience did not make me want to go back to this location. read more

Everyone is so friendly and nice here! Drinks are what you expect from Philz. It's a small Philz so you may not find seating.

I don't understand the bad reviews, but also just visited this location on a Sunday morning at 7:30 so no crowds, no order confusion, crew was friendly enough and the interior was clean and spacious. Drinks ordered were placed online through their app with no issues. Drinks said they would be ready in 10 min. I got there with 3 min to spare. All three different drinks were completed within minutes as promised and were delicious and made to order. No issues here. read more

I've had Philz back in the day in the Bay Area. It's great that the chain expanded but the quality has suffered. I miss the quirkiness of the expansive menu. I got my standard, the mint mojito. It was lacking in its creaminess and tastes off. The barista offered to make adjustments. It was busy on a Saturday morning but the wait was okay. read more

I actually had great service when I went (unlike most of the reviewers, so I guess I was lucky) but the drink was just meh. I think I'm just not used to the flavor or the fact that I have been having starbs so so many years...but the rose coffee was just a miss for me. I was also excited to support Philz but their recent statement on ownership (as a corporation) made me less enthused to support them and I feel less bad for not liking the coffee as much. read more
