This review is for the app. I used to avoid this place after visiting multiple times and dealing with horrible customer service each time. I was craving for iced coffee so I gave it another chance. I ordered through the app and life has been better since because I don't have to deal with the baristas in person. Just need my coffee, don't need the attitude. The only bad thing about the app is, if you don't order in advance, it takes forever to get your coffee. Like 20 min. I think it's because they have a ton of orders to fulfill. I like ordering from the app way in advance, and by the time I get there, my drink is ready. Also they close way too early. Like at 2-3pm. Some of us need coffee later in the afternoon! read more

Philz Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - El Segundo, California

Weekday morning around 10am Got the mint mojito bc it sounds exciting and it was indeed refreshing. Warning: the small is $4.60, so if you're not into pricey things, this would qualify. But it was tasty and freshly made. Small-ish outdoor seating area with free WiFi so good place to work if you can find a spot. Parking lot in the back but this fills up quickly around the morning and lunch hours. read more

Philz Coffee - Mint mojito $4.60 - Coffee & Tea Near Me - El Segundo, California

YAY! So happy there's now a Philz in the South Bay! It's in the same plaza as Shake Shack and Tender Greens in the Apollo's Landing plaza. My go-to drink is their Iced Mint Mojito. I love how refreshing it is with the real mint leaves in it. I get it "Philz way" which is the default amount of sugar and cream. I tried to go light on the sugar and cream once and it definitely wasn't as good. :P If I'm craving a hot drink, I love their Philtered Soul. It's smooth and has hints of hazelnut. MMM~ There's no indoor seating but they do have a cute outdoor patio where you can enjoy your drinks. I also love that there's an iPhone APP where you can do mobile order and pickup like how Starbucks does it! Amazing!! read more

Philz Coffee - Mint mojito - Coffee & Tea Near Me - El Segundo, California

This place is for real coffee lovers. Love the care and intentionality. No need for the mermaid coffee. Service is phenomenal.

I am beyond excited that Philz has arrived closer to me (less than 5 miles)! The South Bay will enjoy having you here! Welcome to the neighborhood!! Philz is located in a fairly new area called Apollo Landing. There are a few restaurants that share the free parking lot. I love the space theme on the patio, there's a neat Apollo mural painted by Cloe Hakakian. Go check it out!! If you like baristas talking to you & helping you to find the drink of your choice, this is the place to be! I like the unique style in which they serve you. First, you are called by the barista to order your coffee & then you pay for it while your drink is being prepared. When your drink is ready, you will stand in front of your barista and taste your beverage. If you need any adjustments like more sugar or cream, just let them know. They want you to love your drink before you step away! I have tried a few of their drinks and keep coming back to the same one drink! My absolute favorite drink here is the Iced Mint Mojito. It is a coffee drink with LOTS of mint leaves, but I don't think it is too much mint for the drink. Today was their Soft Opening and they did a great job! I didn't feel rushed and I thought the staff handled the growing crowd very well. I got to sample the toast with avocado & a slice of a hard-boiled egg on top, a bread with something plus a cucumber slice & a Ricotta and Pistachio toast. I got a chocolate croissant to take home, too! Thank you for your hospitality today!! I plan to come here when the Iced Mint Mojito cravings strike me! I also want to try more of their food items! read more

I love the coffee here but unfortunately I wish the mobile order experience was a bit better. Yesterday I put in a mobile order for the first time. I know that the mobile order gives an estimated time of completion, but usually at other drink places, I've never had a drink actually take that long to make. Therefore, I arrived a bit early. I noticed that people who made walk-in orders were definitely getting their drinks faster than my mobile order. When my estimated time finally arrived, I still hadn't heard my name being called. Finally, my husband checked in with an employee and apparently the drink was already made but never called. I had been standing in Philz for a good 20 minutes and heard multiple other names get called, so why wasn't mine called? It's frustrating because who knows how long my drink had been sitting there. I think mobile service can definitely be improved. I don't expect the employees to call out names continuously, but calling once should be standard practice. I also think that they can streamline orders if they had a person and section designated for mobile orders. read more

I am so excited to have Philz Coffee in the South Bay! The new Philz Coffee is located at Apollo Landing in El Segundo. Apollo Landing is one by one becoming one of the best spots for casual dining in the area. With Shake Shack, Tender Greens and now Philz Coffee there I know i will be coming here more and more. The new Philz Coffee is chic and cool. There's a gigantic mural right by their patio that was made by LA artist Cloe Hakakian inside. It's space themed and thus perfect for Apollo Landing. It's so neat to sit and relax here. Spacious and cool; this is my kinda spot. It wasn't surprising that the coffee is on point. I got the Mint mojito. It was so refreshing and unique. From their food items; I instantly became a fan of the Mediterranean Avocado Toast and the Hummus and Tomato toast. I also got try several of their pastries and cookies. Everything was delicious! Love the coffee! Love the location! Love the place overall. Loved my cup of love. read more

Philz Coffee - The Phrankenstein - filtered soul and philharmonic made by Mac - Coffee & Tea Near Me - El Segundo, California

I used to go to the one in HB when I was living in OC but, I couldn't contain my excitement when I learned that Philz was coming to the South Bay! AND LESS THAN A MILE FROM MY WORKPLACE. | l o c a t i o n | Located in Apollo Landing, a small trendy and hip plaza in El Segundo. Def gets packed during peak hours because of all the businesses around the area and weekends. If the lot is full, there's a structure next to the plaza. | v i b e | The cafe itself is pretty small. There's only enough room inside for the line, and seating is outside (although there's not too many seats). If you're in a rush or don't want to wait in line, order through the Philz app. - how it works- 1. Choose your blend. 2. Iced or hot? 3. Customize your sweetness and cream! If you're unsure, ask for "the Philz way"! | m e n u | All coffees I order are iced with vanilla soy milk and no/light sweetener. - blends I've tried - 1. Mint Mijoto (fresh mint, sweet, creamy) - ah yes, the infamous mint mojito. Would you be mad if I said it wasn't my favorite? I'm biased because I'm not a fan of mint, but I don't mind this. I like the fresh mint! It offsets the bitterness of the coffee and is rather refreshing. 2. Ecstatic (nuts, toffee, toast) - there are def nutty and toasty tones to it. If you're not looking for a coffee that is light in flavor, I recommend this one! 3. Philtered Soul (hazelnut, chocolate) - ahhh ecstatic has been my favorite, but this one might be my new favorite! This is also a medium blend, but the bitterness of the coffee is not apparent like the ecstatic. It's very light with a hint of chocolate. But I love it because the chocolate flavor is so subtle! | t l ; d r | A cafe that offers a large variety of blends and allows for maximum customization! 11/10 you recommend if you appreciate the art of coffee. read more

Philz Coffee opened its first South Bay location here in El Segundo, next door to 2 other new popular lunch chains locations (Tender Greens and Shake Shack). Given the brand recognition of its neighbors, this Philz should be on track to a good profit, assuming it can draw the breakfast crowd. The ambiance was relaxed and fun. Baristas are nice and will patiently walk you through the unique process they use to make their coffee - there are no fancy machines, multi-syllable pseudo-Italian drink names or strange names for size S/L (no medium size). They do not make tall cappuccinos or venti macchiatos. These baristas do drip coffee (dark, medium and light) and tea with a paper coffee filter and can add flavorings from their 'full service bar.' There is a nice outdoor patio to catch up with friends or work on the laptop. The unisex bathrooms were clean and modern. We drank coffee: - Darker Blend, Jacob's Wonderbar - The barista filtered and then transferred the coffee into my cup with a long Turkish pull, pouring from way up high and producing a frothy foam on my black coffee. That was neat and helped me visualize the oils in this very dark and bold blend. Who knew? - Iced, Mint Mojito (+$1) - This drink took a bit longer than the others to assemble and was interesting to watch. I'd never seen or tried a mojito made from a coffee base and this was a refreshing surprise. The mint was fresh and strong but not overpowering, the cream was nicely balanced. I would def try this again - Medium Blend, Tesora - good with caramel notes as described in the menu - Medium Blend, Greater Alarm - eh, nothing alarming My husband and I are both big coffee drinkers but were both physically jittery after trying just one small cup. The coffee BUZZ here is REAL BIG! Would work wonders for the 3PM lull. The shop serves the expected pastries and snacks. Cookies we tried were like crack. ...Shop also makes the controversial hipster dirt bag novelty toasts. The bread is dense and unique, better than I've had in other chains. But the toppings are pretty thin and lackluster compared to counterparts who make these exceptionally well (e.g. Earth Bar) - If I'm buying something this easy to make, I expect it to be done WAY better than what I can make at home... read more

I received a gift card for Philz coffee and came to try it for the first time. The staff was great, I asked some questions about the menu and options since it was my first time there. They answered my questions patiently and gave me great recommendations. I tried the iced mint mojito and it was delicious. I came in around 8am and the wait for my order was not bad at all despite the morning coffee rush. Place was clean and nice music was playing. Will definitely be coming back! read more

Philz Coffee - I love this place! I know everybody by name and vice versa - Coffee & Tea Near Me - El Segundo, California

Philz is probably one of my top favorite coffee places in SF, so I'm super glad they added a few in LA! This location, in particular, is perfect for those around LAX/El Segundo/Manhattan area! I wanted a great drip/pour over coffee & this place offers a variety of light, medium, dark, etc. options! I'm not normally into adding items into my drinks, so this was the perfect place at 6am! Parking is conveniently located in the back of the place, but there is public parking literally adjacent to the store. No seats inside, but a cute patio with yellow seats is located outside. I saw a lady working with her laptop out & coffee in-hand! Walked up & was greeted with a smile. Something I want in the morning. I ordered a Plantlicious Earth in L, which came with a mint. She asked if I wanted any creamer, but no thanks! Philtered Soul has a hazelnut & chocolate flavor for those who want chocolate without the calories ;) You tell the cashier what you ordered, pay on a tablet, Tip is already calculated & bam. You're on your way to start your day! read more

LOVE PHILZ COFFEE! You get in line and wait until one of the baristas call you up for your order. You go pay at the cashier and wait for your drink. My go-to is the Iced Mint Mojito full sweet with soy milk. The barista asks you if you like the order is perfect - so take a sip, and if you need any changes let them know. I have tried their other drinks and their secret menu items, but I keep going back to the Mint Mojito. Second best is the Mocha Tesora! The coffee here is always good and look out for the batch of the month - the beans are cheaper for that month! read more

My favorite go to coffee spot when inn the area. I've been havjng this great coffee so about 3 years now and just about every time this place does not disappoint. I usually go with their tesora medium roast or when it's warm I do their mint mojo to which is a staple at this place. Service is usually great here and wait rarely long. One of the smaller location so not many seating but I i am usuaLly on the go so doesn't bother me. I would recommend this place to anyone in the area for sure. I will be back here! read more

I finally tried their mint coffees and it was so refreshing! The coffee was well balanced and it certainly got me wired. The staff here is amazing and genuine. The decor of this place is simple, but nice. I love that there are a lot of outdoor space. It was very comfortable to just sit there and relax for a bit. There is a lot of parking as well. I am curious to try other espresso drinks that they offer! read more

I recently went back to LA to see some friends and eat some delicious food. I'm so glad to see that Philz has opened so many locations in SoCal. The store is located in a small plaza with ample parking not far from the high way exit. I went for the Honey Haze today, and boy was it good. I normally nurse my drink, but I couldn't stop with this one. Honey Haze is made with the Philtered Soul cold brew, oat milk, and of course honey. I could taste the sweet honey with every sip. I am definitely coming back for more. read more

Philz Coffee - Honey Haze - Coffee & Tea Near Me - El Segundo, California

I love Philz coffee! I usually order ahead on the app and it's ready by the time I come in. My latest experience however, they were running behind. I overheard that someone had slept in, so there was definitely a crowd forming even for pickups. I had arrived on time and it took a while for anyone to acknowledge me. They had just started on my order a little after I arrived. I only had to wait about 5 extra minutes and the barista was very apologetic and super nice. I normally order the mint mojito (obsessed!). This last time I ordered a Philharmonic, super delicious! For any drink with mint though, they do put whole leaves in, so it's best to drink it fresh before the mint goes bitter. read more

Today was their first official day. Nice large patio seating and lots of free parking at the Apollo Landing complex. The menu signage is hard to read because it's at the very top and seems 20' off the floor and far behind the counter. This is because they have a big giant glass window. Had a mint Mojito with almond milk and a little bit of cream, one spoon of brown sugar and it tastes great. read more

Philz Coffee - a hand holding a cup of coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - El Segundo, California

It's a good thing I love Philz Coffee, because my experience at this location was pretty awful. I'm not from the area, so I don't have the Philz Coffee app. I wish I did, because when I walked in and was first in line, I could see they were making the mobile orders. Not one of the 3 employees working even made eye contact or said "I'll be right with you." I hate that. 10 minutes later, they finally took me, the first person in line. I guess there was an order for 4 people that were right before me and the mobile orders, but it shouldn't take 10 minutes of me standing there before you take my order. Ordered my drink and was sent over to another employee to stand in line so I could pay. Then I got to stand and wait for my drink to get made. Overall, 20+ minutes in the store for a simple coffee. I get that it's handmade, and I do love their coffee, but had I been told it would be that long with 0 people in line in front of me, I would have went elsewhere. My coffee was delicious, that was the happy ending. read more

Amazing !! Anytime I'm in Manhattan I won't pass this place up , coffee is FANTASTIC , customer service is fantastic , I'll usually get an iced mocha , sweet & creamy and it's Devine !!! read more

Excellent place!! I first tried Philz in San Francisco. I was hooked! At the time, SF was the only place to get it. You first decide what type of coffee you want. When you order it, they will ask you the sweetness level and if you would cream or not. I ordered the Manhattan, which is a light roast, medium plus sweetness, (1 1/2 tablespoons of brown sugar), and medium cream. It was perfect. The Manhattan has citrus, cherry and floral. You taste every note in this coffee and you wouldn't even think it goes together. So good. They have now several locations across California. If you see one, stop by. You'll love it. read more

My favorite coffee place! My favorite is the iced Mint Mojito coffee! I'm drooling just thinking about it! Philz is hands down my favorite coffee place with unique drinks! They have an outside seating area where you can study (free wifi) and the art/decor is really nice. Lastly, their cups are just built to perfection-- Great for holding hot or cold drinks. Awesome design. I love the interior decorations and how they personalize each employee in the front wall with their personal favorite drinks (So you don't have to ask for recommendations). You order on the left side as you enter and then pick up your drink at the right. read more

Getting coffee here is a pleasant way to start the day. Coffee is great and always consistent. I love the different customizations to each drink and the baristas encourage you to taste after making they make it to make sure you like it. My order: Mint Mojito or Iced Coffee Rosé - Creamy, Oat Milk, Medium Sugar, Iced Call me basic, but I just don't think anyone can do mint coffee like Philz! I would always look forward to going to Santa Monica for the mint mojito so I'm glad I don't have to take the 405 to get it now! read more

Shout out to the team at Philz!! Not only do they have great coffee and food items. but I lost my medication there and they put it aside for me. The following day when I realized I lost it, I called Philz and one of the managers arranged to drop it off at another Philz closer to my home. I was in LA just for the day and live over an hour away! I am grateful for your help in getting this to me....that's really going the extra mile for your customers! Thank you very much! read more

I am a HUGE fan of Philz, especially their iced mint mojito coffee, but I was extremely disappointed with my visit at this location. First of all, the parking lot behind this small shopping/food area is really small and very busy. We just sat in the car for a long time waiting for cars to come in and out and for spots to open up. Finally after parking, there was a huge line inside this location, it was out the door! There was a sign that the line moves quickly, but after my experience that sign was in fact a lie. There are only 4 drink-making stations, and only 3 people working. I think they need to adjust their staffing. This is also the smallest Philz location I've been to. I ordered my drink and luckily enough it was finished pretty quickly. However, my biggest problem with my experience here, was that it tasted nothing like a classic iced mint mojito! It was not sweet or creamy, and just tasted like very strong coffee. It was not the drink I wanted and was expecting. Now looking back, I did notice 2 other people ahead of me in line requesting adjustments to the same barista I had. I will be back to this location, but I really hope they can make their drinks correctly. read more

I discovered Philz in Norcal. They then opened one in Santa Monica, then they finally opened one closer to my home. This coffee shop/chain is my favorite. I crave their top drink the Mint Mojito. The staff is always so nice and will change your drink if you are unhappy with the taste. During the pandemic, I am happy that they are still open and like that it is a mobile order only. read more

Can I tell you how excited I was to stumble upon Philz when I was next door at Randy's?! Philz and Randy's less than five feet from each other? YES! First thing's first.. I don't drink coffee. But I love, love, love all of the teas at Philz. My personal favorite and go-to is the black tea with milk. I ordered my usual: large black tea with whole milk. I will say that it seems their prices have gone up in the last few months -- or maybe it's just this location (?). There is a nice outdoor patio at this location where you can enjoy your beverages and bites. Delighted to come across this spot today! 2019: 29/100 read more

My go-to is a mint mojito, yum! Hits the spot when I'm not feelin my hottest on an early morning. Good thing a Randy's donuts is next door, bc now your morning is about to get 10x better! read more
