**Update:** I realized I hadn't updated my review in a few years! I've been coming to this Philz location for about five years now, and it's still my favorite. Unfortunately, San Diego still doesn't have a Philz, so La Jolla and Del Mar are the closest options. Between the two, I prefer this location because it's a little more spacious. Inside, they have a large communal table, a handful of smaller tables, and a few comfortable lounge chairs. There are also plenty of outdoor tables if you prefer to sit outside. It definitely gets busy, especially in the mornings, so finding an indoor seat isn't always easy. Even so, it's one of my favorite places to work remotely when I can grab a spot. As for the coffee, it's still my favorite. My go-to order is a half Philtered Soul and half Jacob's Wonder with cream on the side. I love that every cup is brewed fresh to order. There really isn't another coffee shop quite like Philz. The freshly ground beans and pour-over style brewing make such a difference, and it's one of the main reasons I keep coming back. If you're looking for a place to work, catch up with a friend, or simply enjoy a great cup of freshly brewed coffee, this location continues to be one of my favorites.
I've visited this Philz Coffee in the Carmel Valley area a few times on work trips to San Diego and am always impressed with his friendly the staff is, but most important... how great the coffee tastes! I took a work colleague with me to this location today after taking a work break from the office. We both got a large cold brew and both of us raved at how tasty and refreshing the drink flavor was! I will definitely stop by this Philz again the next time I'm in town.
Had a great experience here! We had the Honey Haze drink and it was so perfectly made. I have had some honey lattes where the honey was too much and too sweet. Theirs was perfect. We also bought some coffee beans where they grind it for you. There are different ways to grind the beans, which I learned. Holy moly, smells amazing!! Cannot wait to try it. The cashier was patient with us for our first time when we asked questions about the coffee beans but she totally sold us on the most popular one, medium roast - Philtered Soul. We bought the last one!
Located in Del Mar Highland Town Center, this Philz Coffee shop was a great experience thanks to their staff. Quality of my egg bites was tasty and Mint Mojito was made perfectly. Coffee shop was clean and inviting too. I'll be back again.
The short line moved quickly. Service was friendly. I tried the egg bites. They were served hot but were a bit bland. They were good with cholula hot sauce. They offer packets of the hot sauce. Coffee was good.
My friends and I stopped by for some afternoon coffee after lunch yesterday. I got the Honey Haze (Philtered Soul Cold Brew with honey & oat milk). It was a little on the sweet side, but after my ice watered it down a bit, I enjoyed it. I'm not sure I would go out of my way to come here, but it's convenient since it's near my work. The coffee shop was very clean and there were lots of tables inside and outside. Service was friendly and efficient.
We went here recently after a brunch to grab some coffee. It's in a Shopping Plaza in Del Mar so go parking is plentiful. It's about an average size for a coffee shop not too small and not extremely large. They had seating inside and outside, and a big sofa inside you can sit on as well. It it wasn't too busy when we arrived so we got right up to the counter immediately. They had some new specialty drinks on the menu, the one which was the spiced vanilla and another which was the banana flavor. We tried one of each, and they were both good, however the banana really stood out. The flavor was very good and didn't taste too artificial like some banana flavored things can. The vanilla cinnamon was good have a safe bet if you don't want anything too wide or out of the ordinary. You can order them hot or cold. They also have a menu of pastries and breakfast items as well, such as breakfast burritos. Overall it's a cute little spot, with some unique drink flavors that I would definitely go back to try again. I looked at the menu and was eyeing a pistachio croissant they have, and that might be next on my list.
I haven't had a good cup of Philz since I worked in Santa Ana, and that was back in 2022. I'm glad this location provided a pleasing and reminiscent experience of going on coffee runs with friends during break. The cofffee tasted just as amazing as I remember it! I'm withholding the final star since my order was to go, but otherwise awesome stuff!
Very good coffee! Being able to order ahead is always a plus. This location is super chill and provides excellent service. Reasonable pricing and excellent location, I'll be back for sure.
The mint mojito iced coffee was delicious. Smooth and creamy. Asked for less sugar and cream and they made it perfectly. Service was also spot on. And very friendly fast and efficient. We got the too good to go pastries and tried a couple of them and they were very good. The cookie comeiossant was different and delicious. I have never heard of this before and it worked perfectly together. Loved how it was sugary sweet but had good sweetness and very flaky. Definetly stop in and try it Plenty of outdoor seating and I door as well. They don't have whipped cream so our little puppy didn't get a pup cup. But was happy to be out and about with us.
I'm so happy to find a Philz Coffee in San Diego. It's been over 4 years since I've been to the last time in San Ramon. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. It was fairly busy for a Friday morning. I love the smell of freshly roasted coffee beans. Very short wait, when it was our turn the cashier said I will be right with you. I got the Iced Mint Mojito and my date ordered the Ice Chai Latte. Drinks were out within 5 minutes. I really enjoyed my beverage and it was as yummy as I remembered.
I was enjoying myself in this upscale shopping center and saw Philz Coffee which caught my attention to try a coffee. It is nice to take a break from the rest of the coffee shops to try another one. Upon walking in the door, I observed a big open dining area as well as an outside patio for those that want to be outside. The coffee drinks looked very inviting on the menu. I was greeted by a friendly barista who took my order and explained the different types of coffee choices to help me decide what to order. I decided on an Iced Mint latte with Oatmilk. There was a cute little sprig of mint on top of the drink. The flavor was intensely minty, refreshing, and delicious. I can't wait to go back and try all the Iced coffee drinks on the menu. Perfect coffee spot for the coffee connoisseur! The coffee shop is large with a pleasant ambiance. Kudos to the baristas for making the coffee so delicious and creating warm and inviting customer service .
Tried the mojito coffee. Nice coffee flavor with fresh mint flavor. It was pretty busy in there, but we did not wait long for our drink.

Had to stop by and try their new matchas and was pleasantly surprised - especially for a coffee spot! I ordered the strawberry mint matcha and it was both sweet and refreshing. No extra sugar, just oat milk, and it was perfect for my taste. The matcha itself was smooth and earthy. I ordered on the app and it was ready when I arrived. The employees were super sweet and even offered to adjust my drink if needed. So thoughtful! Definitely recommend giving their matcha a try. read more

They have AC and wireless! Score on the hot days of summer. Located in the Del Mar Highlands with ample parking. Philz was really necessary for this plaza. It has lots of seats inside and a full food menu. Highly recommend if you need to study or work--the music is fairly low. Service is a bit slow but they take time to make a great coffee. read more

Great customer service, very clean location. Cheese bites were delicious. But the rose ice coffee OMG out of this world. So delicious, I have never had anything like it before. I wish I had taken a picture of it before I destroyed it! We also got the blueberry breeze ice which tasted like a blueberry muffin in a drink! I've already gone back a handful of times. Will def need to get a pic next time and add it on here. Also got a bag of their coffee beans because I was so impressed with the quality. Excited to try it out (Tesora) don't forget to get the app! Super easy to use and order ahead. read more

Del Mar Highlands Town Center is truly lacking a decent coffee shop with a variety of coffee and espresso drinks, as well as made-to-order breakfast sandwiches and snacks. Philz Coffee offers a $5-$6 cup of coffee, with or without milk, but its food options are limited to average pastries and pre-made breakfast items like breakfast burritos and sausage sandwiches. By 9 AM, the seating area is often full of people working on their laptops (therefore taking over every table available), creating a less-than-inviting atmosphere for those who simply want to enjoy a coffee with a friend. Based on recent visits, it's clear that the Town Center needs a coffee shop that offers a more comprehensive menu and a more relaxed ambiance. read more

First time trying Philz Coffee I will say the menu and number of choices was a bit intimidating. I'm not used to coffee shops where you pick which blend want in the drink. So I kept it simple and went with the Philz favorite mocha. The sweetness and milk level can be adjusted to your preferences. The drink is smooth and if you like a very chocolate forward mocha this is an excellent choice. It's hard to evaluate the quality of coffee without tasting it as much. The baristas were very friendly and the service was efficient. read more

The staff was great, very nice and helpful. Food is good too, I got a turkey sausage breakfast sandwich and a cinnamon bun, heated up. Both were very tasty. The coffee was excellent too, Philtered Soul, I would highly recommend to anyone that likes a hazelnut coffee. The place its self is nice, lots of tables so it was easy to find a place to sit, and everything was clean. read more

The good: - One of the best coffee joints in San Diego hands down, as consistent as it gets. - Of you're into home brewing, their Coffee beans are really good, especially the dark roasts. - Vibes are great and a nice place to chill with a coffee and laptop. - Baristas are friendly and helpful if you have any special requests - Dogs always making an appearance - lots of seating indoor and seating outdoor The bad: - although vibes are good and chill, it can get loud if you don't have headphones. The ugly: - ?? Nada. Bottom line: Amazing place for really good coffee (not espresso) and variety with good beans, vibes and baristas. Highly recommended if you're in the area, forget Starbucks . read more

Came by after having lunch in the area. Tried an iced honey haze on a hot day. It was good, but I wish the coffee had a stronger, richer, bolder taste. It was a bit on the sweeter side. You can customize your drink to your liking but it was a bit overwhelming for me with all the available options. Drinks came out fast, and there are dine in and outdoor seating available. Lots of shared parking with other venues at the Del Mar Highlands Town Center. Service was ok, the cashier who took my order was helpful. The baristas were nice too, I just wished they labeled the drinks without me asking. I think it's common sense to label the drinks if there are no sticker labels, especially if I'm a single person picking up three different orders. I asked and they labeled it no problem, just felt like I was a burden to have to ask. read more

One of my favorite coffee spots to work out of in San Diego for 3 main reasons. Reason #1: EASY parking. HUGE lot in front and parking structure in the back. Literally impossible to not find parking here. Reason #2: GREAT wifi. Do you know how many coffee shops in SD have bad internet? If you have a bunch of meetings and are worried your calls will drop, you don't have to worry here. Reason #3: GREAT coffee. My go to is the Mint Mojito. Iced coffee with a hint of mint and they use real mint, not mint syrup. Probably my favorite coffee in San Diego. There is plenty of seating inside and out. Outlets at every table indoors. I've never sat outdoors so you should double check if you plan on sitting outside. Also they have an app so if you don't like social interaction or if you're in a rush, mobile order! It will be ready at the counter, far left side. Dog friendly. I have spent many, many hours here and will always come back. read more

Always a solid place to get coffee! My go to is the mint mojito and it's so good that I'm scared to try anything new lol. Lately I've been getting it with light cream and sugar and it's perfect as I don't feel like I'm drinking a dessert. This location has super friendly staff and plenty of outdoor ajs indoor seating. The drinks are always consistent here and parking is easy to find, unlike the la Jolla location. Philz is located next to Mendocino farms and one of the parking garage entrances. read more
