I ordered the mint mojito for pickup on their app. Drink came out quickly. However, I feel like the mint mojito doesn't taste as minty as it used to be. This location also seems to have some seasonal menu items I wish I had time to try. read more

Wish I would've known about the mint mojito latte (sweet and creamy), when I was travel nursing in SF. I never really cared for Philz coffee when I was living here, but when we were in town for a show the beginning of August, we stopped in here for a quick coffee & ohmygosh! The mint mojito is amazing! So refreshing, but still sweet-which sounds ridiculous for a coffee but it's SO good! You guys should expand your business (specifically the mint mojito) into Denver, Colorado... I'm sure it'd do well... hint hint read more

Always love my Philz fix and this is such a fun area to get it in. The staff is very friendly and coffee has never missed. I love a good Philter soul the house way. The perfect fall drink...except I do have it every time i go. The inside is relatively clean with fun decor. It's usually pretty busy and majority of the time you can do some puppy watching, if you get lucky. read more

Great coffee. So good that we make it at home on the daily. We get it delivered monthly

How did coffee become the most essential social connection we have with each other? If a plague wiped out humankind and buildings were left standing in the aftermath, the zombies would be surprised by how many places one could get coffee on this stretch of Polk Street in Russian Hill. Sorry, I was just watching "The Last of Us" and felt inspired. Anyway, I'm just saying Philz would still be my coffee of choice in the apocalypse. I like that it hasn't yet been gobbled up by a rainforest-killing conglomerate, and I like the $3.50 Medium Silken Splendor even more. Light light please (photo: https://bit.ly/3HCuymn). Chairs appear to be more occupied here (zombie tourists presumably). But that's OK because come the apocalypse, well... COFFEE - 4 stars...still the only one I get AMBIANCE - 4 stars...not as spacious as other Philz but that's OK SERVICE - 3.5 stars...about as punctilious as most Philz baristas TOTAL - 4 stars...coffee will outsurvive us all RELATED - Exploring Russian Hill?

Stopped for a coffee before getting on the Bart. We chose this location for the convenience and were super pleased with the taste of the coffee. The honey haze was delicious and the store was cute and cozy. Can't say the same for the staff though which is why I can't give the place a five star. read more

SERVICE: cashier was rude and the line is going to be long every weekend morning, but that's typical for any coffee shop. usually it moves fast, but it didn't here COFFEE: my friend & i ordered the same drink, but mine tasted a lot different than hers? AMBIENCE: it's pretty loud in here so i recommend noise cancelling headphones if you want to get work done read more

Not sure why people have complained about the service here. I came in at 730 AM on New Year's Day and everyone working (who were heroes for being on duty at such an ungodly hour / day) were super nice and friendly. Shout out to Andy in particular. Plus the coffee is great. Five stars! read more

Only one person working. 12 people in line. Don't know if it's after they were sold they are trying to cut cost. Very unhappy people in line. The experience has definitely diminished. read more

I love Philz! I wish they had one in Florida. I always get the iced mocha Tesoro. It's my fave. I love how they ask you to try it out to see if you like your drink and they will fix it if you don't. read more

Philz Coffee - Mocha Tesoro - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Francisco, California

First of all, the staff is very pleasant, but when you're charging five dollars for a small regular coffee, dark roast, it should be exceptional and mine was just mediocre. I figured a dark roast would have a lot more depth and flavor but it was pretty bland ...disappointing because I always thought Philz was exceptional... not this time read more

Horrible service. The barista was uninformed of their own menu. Struggled to take an order for simple two items. The strong non verbal cues clearly broadcasted her displeasure working there. Served the pastry cold and coffee wrong. Feedback: better onboarding and practice customer empathy Date : oct 23 time - afternoon read more

I really enjoy Philz and this location is no different. The attention to detail is great and everyone is always very nice and helpful. It is always packed but they move quickly because they always seemed to be staffed. Personally I'm all about the Jacob's Wonderbar but there's a lot of great roasts to try! read more

Loved the vibe, coffee selection, Pride decor, friendly staff and seating. I really like that each cup came out with a label that had my name and drink type for my group of four. No confusion. I got a large Ether, black, really good. Hot, but drinkable. The others got various flavored ice drinks. I tried one. Really good, like liquid candy. The place was packed with Millenials on their laptops pretending to be busy at work. A few groups of firefighters also came in and out ... great community feel. We'll be back. read more

Really pleased to find this Philz right off Van Ness on my way to work. Just like any other Philz, I recommend ordering ahead on the mobile app. Parking was not too bad on a weekday morning. Always ordering my Iced Mint Mojito. My previous fave was Tesora but sometimes it is too strong for me to stomach. Pick up was super easy, the staff here turn the cups with the names to face the door so we can just walk in and easily find our cup. Tried the pork sausage & egg burrito for the first time and it was surprisingly pretty good, just wish it was a little bigger since their food items are pretty pricey ~$6. read more

Just to preface, I've been drinking Philz coffee for a while now. I actually have a friend who orders their beans all the way to New York and that's where I first tried it. To my surprise when I landed in San Francisco I found an actually brick and mortar location! It was a no brainer. I had to go in and try, and I'll have you know I wasn't disappointed! The service was fantastic everyone was super friendly and very knowledgeable, it was so good I had to go twice! The interior was beautiful with all the exposed wood and foliage. I would highly recommend! I got an iced coffee my first time and a iced mint mojito the second time around read more

Philz Russian Hill is a super nice space to have a morning, midday or afternoon or evening respite. Really you ask? The blond wood interior makes the cafe look light and clean. Very Scandinavian. When I visited, the cafe had an abundance of Starter Bakery pastries (croissants, chocolate croissants, kougin amanns, morning buns). On the savory side, there was avocado toast! Yummy. I had several bites of a friend's toast. So happy, that Russian Hill has another fine establishment in the neighborhood. Let's keep the neighborhood lively and vibrant with these solid businesses. The owner is from the Mediterranean region and we love this regional people and food. I heart Philz). read more

I love going to coffee shops to enjoy the setting, people watch, enjoy my drink, and sometimes just to get out of the house for some much needed fresh air. I've never been to Philz, however flashback to high school and the it cup to carry in hand were Mint Mojitos from Philz. I find the taste of mint repulsive as I equate this to toothpaste, so I knew right off the bat I did not want to order this even though it's what people associate with the cafe. Via their app, I ordered a small Tesora with medium oat milk, no sugar, light ice and because there was a promotion, I got a free cup size upgrade. If only the Tesora was delicious, I would've greatly enjoyed the free cup size upgrade, but like what I read in previous reviews, it tasted watery and flavorless. Although, it was seated nicely on the pick-up counter by the time I stepped foot through the door, it only took a few sips for me to realize that this was not the one. I kindly asked the barista nearby the counter if I could get my drink remade as it tasted watered down. She did not look happy, but I would've rather asked for a redo than not try at all. Plus, at the same time, she didn't make the drink itself, so I don't understand why she looked offended. Within a few minutes later, the drink was remade, and I was looking forward to a second shot at my first drink at Philz. As I began to take a few sips, I realized the drink tasted even worse than the first one that tasted watered down. I didn't want to ask again for my drink to be remade because it could've ended up tasting more watery than the previous times. What I do like about Philz is how uniquely designed the app is, the cleanliness of the cafe, and the communal sink layout when leaving the bathroom. If you plan to spend time indoors enjoying your drink, chances are an employee will approach you and ask for proof of vaccination, which happened to me. I didn't mind as it's nice knowing Philz takes protocol seriously, and I showed them a photo of my card since I didn't have it on me. I'm not too sure I'll be back as $3.73 is pretty pricey for watery coffee, however this makes me realize how fortunate I am for establishments such as Home Coffee Roasters, Andytown, and Blue Bottle. read more

Philz will and always will be my go-to coffee shop. The atmosphere in this store is really chill, the employees are super nice, and it's a great place to come relax, do some work, or just do whatever. I always come here whenever I need to study. It's quite spacious and I don't feel like I'm claustrophobic whenever there's people inside. Aside from their coffee, they even have pastries as well. I always get the Philtered Soul or their infamous Mint Mojito as my number 1's. They're both so good and I highly recommend getting either one. The Philtered Soul basically has this hazelnut flavor and it's so nutty and delicious. And the Mint Mojito, which is a classic here, is basically this minty coffee that's just so addicting. I always get my coffee with creamy oat milk because that's the superior milk for all lattes and coffee. And you can't change my opinion on that. read more

I am truly sad to be leaving a bad review for Philz's coffee because I've enjoyed their coffees for the longest time. I love their Tesoro, Mint Mojito. However, my last visit at this location was such an unpleasant experience that I almost feel betrayed by this company. Just like many franchises, you expect the taste of their products would be standardized while it might not be the best quality. Most of the Philz coffee locations I've visited have pretty consistent service and decent taste of coffee. This place has been the exception since they opened its location on Polk street. I really hope this place would deliver the similar quality of coffee and service as other Philz locations since I live pretty close by. Despite of inconsistency in their coffee and service, I did not mind till my last visit when my Tesora tasted like a water, blend and flavorless. I could have stayed longer at the store to actually taste it and ask to remake but, the service was so horrible at the point I did not want to stay longer. The online orders are mixed up with in person orders so you don't even know where to pick them up. The staffs who are being asked where my coffee is obnoxiously unpleasant as if they hate their jobs. I am wondering why my coffee tastes like a water but the unhappy demeanor of the staffs perhaps reflect the outcome of the tasteless coffee. I've been a huge fan of Philz coffee, however, this place totally terminated my relationship with Philz. read more

My fiancé and I got mint mojitos here today. After placing the order, I did some research and realized each drink was going to be ~300mg of caffeine. I asked the barista if we could switch them to half caf. and he was very accommodating and helpful. If you love mint and coffee, this is the drink for you. The drink hit the spot on a warm day and we'll definitely be coming back here soon. read more

Wasn't even busy and was told it was gonna be half an hour wait for a cup of coffee. Nice seating though

I've never been to such a rude coffee house, and I live in Los Angeles. As other reviews have mentioned, no one bothers to even look up at you there or help guide you to the area to order (it was my first time there and their line is slightly confusing). All these hipsters are soooo busy making their craft of coffee that they can't even direct a customer obviously in need. The coffee itself was standard. I would suggest supporting local coffee houses instead of this chain-type place with terrible service. read more

It has been a while since I had a cup of Joe from Philz's. We all know that the local coffee company is continuously adding more locations. I am happy that the local coffee company has come to "my neck of the woods" in the Russian Hill neighborhood. My debut of the newest location, which was opened back in November of 2019, I had Philz's Mocha Tesora. For $4.25, the medium-size and medium roast blend is the perfect remedy for my long day ahead of me. What is also new from Philz is the newest drinkware from Yeti for $35. The durable 20oz mug is a great souvenir item. "You know you want one of those mugs!" What befuddled me is the questionable low rating for this particular location. The baristas are trained well. The lounge area is nice and a great place to handle your business. I don't have any issues with this new location. This particular spot has had many failed businesses and never found a consistent business to stay. But this new Philz's location is a keeper and a welcoming addition to the area. read more

Whoever Sarah is, she needs a raise. Like a big one. I have never met somone ar a coffee shop who was so detail oriented and sweet. It was 7 am mind you. What a wonderful soul. It was my first time there and she was so sweet. I asked like a crabby person, I just want a cup of coffee. She kindly guided me through how to order and I told her the size I wanted and something yummy because I'm not picky and because I really needed some caffein. We made polite conversation. When it was time for my drink, she remembered my name and said, Hey this is ellie's time here, please make sure she tried it before she leaves. I am sure that is part of protocol but I found that to be such a special touch. She and her whole team made my whole Morning. And if that coffee puts you in that absolutely lovely of a mood I will take it any which was I can consume it Thank you to all the lovely people working this morning, your liveliness and kindness; it made a big impact on my day read more

I've been ordering from Starbucks for a long time and it's so nice to find a lil coffee place that's different. I tried the iced mojioto coffee and it was so good! I also tried a toast but already forgot the name. Customer service was very informative since this was my first time ordering their product. Parking at this place was challenging since I'm not from SF, so it's convenient to maybe order through the mobile app to save time. I definitely will be back again to try more coffee. read more
