I was a long-time Starbucks fan. On my first visit to this Philz I was introduced to my new favorite, Jacob's Wonderbar dark roast. I've had it hot and iced. Yum! They also have great pastries--especially the blueberry muffins. The staff are great, friendly people. Since the drinks and process are different from Starbucks, if you're new just ask the cashier for help. They are super helpful and will guide you to a great drink. read more

I stopped at my bank in El Segundo and needed a pick me up so drove to the nearest Philz. Ordered online as I usually do. Inside is a bit lonely at this location and service is a bit slower I came and no one was working on any drinks and not as friendly as other Philz locations I have been to but coffee really hit the spot and was well prepared. Love the creamy flavor and it was perfectly sweetened so 5 stars for that! read more

Very busy Philz location but I love coming here! I'd recommend ordering online for pick up, which will be the quickest option to avoid waiting during the morning rush. They have only benches inside for seating but plenty of outdoor area for you to sit, work, and chat. It can get very chilly in the seating area so I'd recommend bringing a jacket. There is a parking lot attached to the Philz. I always love grabbing a pastry from here along with my coffee or a breakfast burrito to go just because it's quick and tastes good. read more

I am visiting my daughter in Manhattan Beach and she was raving about their mint mojito coffee. So glad I tried it. Refreshing and more like a mojito and not an Andes mint -thank goodness. Did not think I would care for it, but I was wrong. Loved it. Nothing like it from my coffee experience. It definitely went beyond my expectation. Smooth and full of fresh flavor. The spot itself is cute. The view not so much. I did not go for the ambiance. It was for a great cup of coffee. They had a good collection of food and pastries. The service was personable and efficient. Prices are comparable to Starbucks. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed. read more

Rudest service I have ever experienced from a Phiz anywhere and I have been to all the Philz. I walked in and was clearly there trying to order and everyone in the store knew it and still ignored me and took the order of the men who walked in after me for some reason. I have never felt more discriminated against in my life. Do not go here. Boycott this place. I walked out. What is this ? Aweful read more

Gotta go to Philz every time I'm in the west coast. While I could talk forever about how great their mint mojito is, this time I opted for their new iced honey oat drink. It was satisfyingly nutty and subtly sweet from the honey without being overpowering in any way. It was very enjoyable and you still get their classic coffee flavor running underneath; nothing overpowers each other and it was quite refreshing. It has a shaken quality to it so it's nice and foamy at the top reminiscent of the shakerato vibes that are trending heavily right now. Gotta give it up to philz for staying on top of the game with everything they make. read more

The place is very nice and clean, service is usually very friendly until the day we came in to the grumpiest barista ever. Our mojito came with a lovely garden of mint sprayed with a nice aroma of coffee. She also didn't even call out our order and the cap wasn't on securely. read more

Went in for a decaf and got amazing service. Probably the best coffee service since the last time that I went to a barista and the coffee was delicious too. read more

Made a really massive order for work half an hour ahead of time, and they were able to make the drinks right as I got in to pick them up. The Philz coffee here has only outdoor (covered) seating, which is a very nice touch for the South Bay area as you'll feel the breeze pass through as you watch .. only cars pass by. It's oddly calming and actually nice relaxation spot in an area that usually feels busy. As far as the drinks themselves go, you're going to get Philz coffee. Made to order. Craft recipes. Hard to go wrong. read more

Am I basic for admitting I am in love with the Iced Mint Mojito? The concept seems so simple, but Philz nails it. Not going to lie - I've tried to recreate the same taste and experience at home using multiple techniques and recipes, and still can't quite get it right. At Philz, they seem to be able to obtain a much more intense mint flavor - my suspicion is they must use peppermint vs spearmint. Regardless, since Philz isn't readily available on the East Coast yet, I always make it a point to stop by when I'm in Cali. This location is nice as it is closeby to LAX, so it's an easy stop regardless if it's your landing or departing. There is plentiful parking, and a nice outdoor area you can hang out at. The place tends to be busy, so don't be surprised if there's a bit of a wait. read more

Met a colleague here this morning for a breakfast meeting. The coffee was excellent. The service was friendly. I decided to order some food on this visit and I asked for a green chili and egg breakfast burrito. They were out of those, which is fine, and so the next one on my list was a bacon and egg burrito. It was literally the worst burrito I've ever had in my life and that includes airports. I'm not even sure there was egg in it. It was a shriveled microwaved really really awful piece of embarrassment and they should regret calling that a burrito. The coffee was excellent if I ever come back and if I ever order food there again, it will be a croissant or a bagel or something that didn't require any preparation. read more

Mint mojito at Philz changed my life. I love their creamy, slightly sweet with a hint of mint coffee. There are days I crave it and wished there are more stores! Before the pandemic, they would offer samples or if you were undecisive, they would make you a small cup to try. Which where I got the chance to try Ecstatic. But I always go for my usual. I noticed they have new creations and need to explore. I will have to come back and update :) read more

Love their avocado toast for breakfast. This place always has a line but it moves pretty fast. Vibes are chill but crowded

I got 4 baked goods. 2 slices (loaf) and 2 croissants. All inedible. Super dry, no flavor and tastes like it was a day or two old (maybe more!!!) Never again. read more

*** pre-order coffee on the Philz app *** ENVIRONMENT As of March 28, 2021, there was no indoor seating available due to COVID-19 restrictions. There is a patio area with cute murals, but not many tables and chairs. Just take it to a nearby beach or pier! SERVICE The nicest on the block! If you need recommendations, they offer helpful insight. They call your name out when your order is ready and ensure that you grab the correct drink. MY FAVORITE PART... The story behind Philz... putting people first. And the iced mint mojito. So good! NOT SO FAVORITE PART... The wait time. But good things come to those who wait. I suggest ordering ahead of time if possible. THE COFFEE So far I have only tried a regular coffee and the iced mint mojito. "Philz Way" is with cream and sugar. Nope - not for me! I like it plain black. The coffee is so fresh and good. There are so many varieties, though. I cannot remember what the hell I tried. I want to try them all. The mojito ($5.60 for a medium) is what I most recently tried - such a yummy treat! I was asked how I wanted it prepped, so of course I asked for a suggestion... "house way" was how I ordered it as it was supposed to be on the creamier side. PARKING Free parking in a shared lot. Spots are tight fits. TIPS + pre-order on the Philz app + dogs are allowed on the patio, but not inside... ask the cashier for a treat for your awesome canine! OVERALL I just love Philz Coffee. I love what they stand for - "quality and care, warmth and connection" - and their coffee is really good. | Drinks: 5 | Service: 5 | Environment: 4 | Price: 3 | read more

A great twist on your cup of joe disguised in a crafted pour-over. This crowded little location has a great vibe and a staff that is friendly and attentive. Sweetened just right by the baristas if you require, the service is as refreshing as a touch of mint in your pick-me-up. They have an excellent selection for different moods and tastes. From Mild to Dark brews, the baristas can create a well-crafted coffee delight. This location can have quite a packed parking lot, but the breezy patio is a nice place to hang out and enjoy a snack and your favorite brew. Philz is a heightened level for the coffee experience other than an espresso pull from everywhere else. read more

Philz Coffee - I'm addicting - Coffee & Tea Near Me - El Segundo, California

One of my fave coffee places because of their mint mojito coffee! They have multiple locations, and I'm so pleased that there's one near me. There are at least 4-5 baristas to keep up with the demand, and even then the wait is around 10 minutes. Worth every minute though. There is outdoor seating which is plenty, and some cool mural art on the wall. It's such a treat to come here. read more

My friend brought me an iced mint mojito during my recent visit. I must admit that hands down the mint mojito cold brew coffee is my go to and favorite. Too bad I can get this on the east coast. It was perfect. A coffee with full flavors, just perfect. read more

I had a lovely and quick visit! I ordered the Ambrosia Coffee of God by recommendation of the barista that assisted me at the counter and a almond croissant. For under $10 might I add. Starbucks could never...as far as price point! Being a loyal matcha lover, I had to adjust but I did enjoy it! They offer a variety of blends and specialty flavors that would encourage me to return, including their other tea options. And before putting a lid top on my coffee, the barista asked me to check to make sure I liked the flavor. I loved that customer focused detail! Thank you team. read more

I love me some Philz!!!!! That's Iced Mint Mojito Light & Sweet is absolutely divine. I love the fresh mint, it's adds a subtle hint that puts this drink over the top. I love that they grind your beans when you order, that you can adjust the amount of cream and sweetness right there. That they also have non dairy options. I first discovered them in the Bay Area, so GLAD they moved to LA......now if they would just come to the PNW........I could finally get it everywhere!!! If you love a smooth dark roast with chocolatey cereal notes, highly recommend Jakob's Wonderbar. Amazing with cream and sugar, but it's complexity really comes out when you have it black. read more

And I'm back again! I had to for their 20th anniversary :) I tried the Honey Haze and now I have 3 go-to drinks here! I ordered mine at medium creamy and medium sweet and it was delightful.

Highly recommend and super happy that this drink will be added to their permanent menu :) read more

My first time here and I wasn't super impressed with the coffee. I got the Philtered Soul. It was a Sunday so it was kinda busy but I got my warmed up almond croissant (I did enjoy the croissant) pretty quick after ordering. My friend got her coffee a good 10 minutes before I did. There are tables outside and parking wasn't an issue (there's a lot that's shared with other businesses). read more

Philz is located in El Segundo in the same plaza as Shake shack and Randy's donuts. Overall the new method of ordering is through the app that you will have to download. I don't live around here but I recently came by and they said they are taking walk-ins but it would be a 5-minute wait. No biggie but they also wanted to let you know that the app is easy and that you can order and pick up your drink after making it. Ordered the mint mojito iced with oat milk! Loved it and totally wish there was a location closer to me. Started off the road trip with a nice tasting cup of this and seriously if you haven't had one you should try it out. They have different milk options and since COVID is still here they aren't letting people into the store. You pick up your drink on the side and just take it with you. read more

Alright, I know I'm probably going to be the outlier here but after trying out Philz, I have to say, I'm not a fan of the coffee.. The people are so so friendly though!! That if their coffee was my jam I'd totally love this place.. read more

Every time we plan on having coffee, it's always Starbucks or Coffee Bean in our minds. But this time we happened to be driving by Philz Coffee in El Segundo as we had just finished a wonderful lunch at the nearby California Fish Grille (another review coming up). So in we went for the very first time. The coffee shop is a relatively new shop, along with other food and beverage establishments the the building they are in. There is a fun designed outdoor seating area and a nice indoor area as well with art displays and merch. One thing that stood out is the friendliness of the staff, Christian, Camila, Cassidy and Dash. As it was our first time, we had to navigate the menu. But Christian helped us with that. It was sort of customizing your drink from a menu of ingredients. Great concept! My wife and I ordered a dark and bold Ecstatic, with Stevia for sweetener. My sister-in-law ordered the Medium and Balanced Filtered Soul. Their coffee blew me away! Nothing like this from Starbucks nor Coffee Bean. The coffee was creamy and didn't have that typical sour aftertaste of coffee. Kinda hard to explain what the palate experiences. Best I can say is the coffee was incredibly smooth and strong at the same time. This place is a big winner and deserving of 5 and even 6 stars! Christian was nice enough to tell us that there is another location around Del Amo mall which is much closer to home. Whether at Del Amo or at El Segundo, we'll be back read more

I could give 5 stars based off the service alone. I love how the baristas encourage to try your drink first to make sure it's just to your liking and offer to adjust it if not. That little detail goes to show the care they have for customer satisfaction! My pals have really keep coming back for the Mint Mojito and the Winter Bliss. I've had the Mocha Tesora which I find to be super rich and deeply chocolate-y if you're into that. read more

Great service, lots of great space, super yummy coffee, reasonable price. Would def come back. Also, it's Palestinian owned so a great time to go if you want to support during this difficult time. Went around 2 pm on a Sunday and it was busy but not bad. Waited in like 10 min or so. Got the iced mint mojito with oat milk and regular sweetening. SO GOOD. not overly sweet. Really enjoyed. They let me use my own thermos too. read more

It was so great to be back! I just love the aroma that fills the air and positive vibe when visiting Philz! Customer service is fantastic and Gingersnaped hot coffee with a side almond croissant was perfect to start the day! Until next time! read more

We decided to get Philz coffee during Covid 19 when Philz reopened with a strict safety measure. The location in El Segundo provided a big patio area so the open space provides a sense of comfort, which was a big concern for customers at this point. I would gave Philz coffee 5 stars for all their coffees. Especially mojito and filtered soul. But my one star review was because the app service that we ended up waiting up to 20 minutes and had to cancel our coffee order because the wait would be another 25 minutes. First, the app forced us to update and lost all our saved information (including password and payment information). We just set in the parking lot and spent 5 some minutes just to update all of that. Then we finally got to order our drinks and excited to drink it soon. However after we paid online, we saw the estimated pick up time was 45 minutes from the time we ordered. We thought it could be an error from the app or just an overly exaggerated overestimated time. Based on our experience with other coffee shops that lets customers to order drinks via the app, it usually took less than 5 minutes to make a cup of coffee. But for Philz, to our biggest disappointment, the app was accurate and it really was not exaggerating about the time wait, the barista told us it would be 45 minutes and looked overwhelmed. Lastly, although coffee would be handed to customers at the patio, but it was crowded and a huge cluster of people waiting in line without any practice of social distancing. The floor should be marked with signals and signs on the side to strictly enforce practicing social distancing. However, it seemed to be more of a coffee party on the patio instead of what Philz claimed to "take strict measures." In the end, we told the barista to cancel our order after she checked on our order. She seemed to be a bit confused why it would take so long as well. We liked Philz, but with this long wait and disorderly and overly crowded patio, and an app that barely function properly... hmm no thank you, Philz. I will take my business and money somewhere else. It was just ridiculous that it would make us wait 45 minutes for a cup of coffee, especially the app didn't give us an estimated time before ordering and causing all the confusions. I guess the management should either bring more staff back to make coffee or provide a better app experience for customers. During Covid 19, we all try to live a bit simpler, and a cup of Philz could have made our day happier and more enjoyable. So it was just a huge disappointment from Philz's app and services. read more

Coffee: great Mint tree inside my cup: not so great Was really looking forward to an iced mint mojito. Unfortunately, my mint mojito was a blend of 10% coffee and 90% mint leaves.
