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!

Cute little coffee shop with a very creative menu. The staff was great and helped us customize our drinks since it was our first time there. Lots of tables in front of the Cafe so you can enjoy your drinks out on the patio.

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!

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.

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!

Cozy space in between popular restaurants like Mendocino Farms & the Taco Stand. They open at 5:30am. Friendly and patient staffs got me a tasteful coffee!

Hello good morning, talk about a nice place to go for coffee, desserts, breakfast, etc. Found myself Very impressed with Philz Coffee. Secondly, Erica - wow, talk about a positive ray of sunshine in the morning. There are certain people that are great at customer service, with calming voices, eager to and help cheerful, and she set the tone. Prices are very good, the coffees very good, definitely coming back.

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!

Here is pic of happiest. Such gratitude!

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,

Elisa G.

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

Mint Mojito
Michelle N.

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!

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.

Excellent staff, excellent service. Great coffee selection. Way better than Starbucks. I always get the ambrosia.

Food: 2/5 There was a case filled with pastries and I decided to try the beef and potato as it looked popular based on its limited supply. There were no prices available so I assumed, the size it was, that the total would be around $7. However, this pastry was almost $14! I was disappointed by the price and lack of flavor inside. The pastry was buttery but not as flaky as I'd hoped for. Service: 3/5 Walking into the bakery I was glad to be welcomed inside and asked if I had any questions by a young lady. After deciding what I wanted to order I waited in line. The older gentleman at the register was not as friendly. I felt rushed when I was ordering and it felt as if he didn't want to be there. Ambiance: 3/5 The interior is very limited in space, especially when trying to line up to order. There were no tables available or space to wait for your take out order. Overall: 3/5 Overall the prices and service were disappointing to say the least.

We've always seen this spot but had never tried it, so we decided to check it out on Mother's Day…read more They were BUSY, but still moved quickly to get the line down. The restaurant itself is pretty small inside, you order first, then they bring the food to your table. Even with how packed it was, the wait honestly wasn't bad at all. My wife, who's pregnant, saved us a table while I waited in line to order, and Fidel, who I'm assuming is the manager, was very nice and welcoming. He checked up on us a few times even though he wasn't our server, and was very personable asking about our baby. The food was AMAZING. I'm so glad we decided to stay. I had the carnitas Benedict, which was delicious and packed with flavor. My wife had the El Chupon burrito, which was also amazing. But the star of the show for us was their hot salsa, incredibly flavorful with the perfect amount of spice We'll definitely be back!

There should be proper seating, where ONCE you order, you go find your table. If you don't get a table then you wait your turn. We ask the staff if we can put personal items to reserve a table and she said yes??? What sort of service is that ?!? They should have a host. Or someone guiding it. The food is rather great but what an unpleasant experience. The manager needs to fix this, cause this isn't a cafe. It's a restaurant.

We originally found it through Yelp and saw people raving about the homemade food and it absolutely lived up to the reviews. I ordered the Denver omelet and it was excellent. The eggs were perfectly airy and creamy without being runny. The flavor was simple but spot on and the avocado paired really well with it. Nothing felt off or overdone. We also tried a few other dishes at the table. The chilaquiles were fantastic. The tortilla chips had a great crunch and were not soggy at all. Even though they looked heavily sauced in pictures the ratio was actually perfect. Enough salsa for flavor while still keeping the chips crispy. The salsa itself was very good and the egg on top was perfectly runny and yolky which was a big plus. The version with added cheese was also great. Service really stood out. One of our friends asked for no cheese on their chilaquiles and it accidentally came out with cheese. The staff handled it so kindly. They took it back immediately and as an apology one of the owners or cooks came out personally and brought us complimentary pancakes. That small gesture really showed how much they care. The owners were incredibly sweet and kept checking in asking if everything was good and sharing how much care and time they put into making everything homemade. You could genuinely feel that passion. Huge props to Forest Cafe. I would absolutely recommend it. A great little brunch and breakfast spot and definitely a place we will be coming back to.
