I had never been to a Philz before but had heard great things. Maybe one of the best drinks I have had in a while. I loved that they put lots of fresh mint leaves into the mint mojito coffee. Will definitely be back! Make sure to go between 8/13-14/2020 for free coffee and pastry for their soft opening. read more

Great service, great location! Right next to Chapman University in the Orange circle plaza. Fairly busy (8 customers waiting) but ordering ahead via mobile was super quick & easy. Came at the pickup time, unfortunately they dropped my drinks and they had to remake them. The people in front were very diligent & professional with the service. They apologized, gave me a new estimated time, and had small talk which made the wait a lot shorter. They even refunded the drinks they dropped (when I didn't even ask!). They definitely went above and beyond my expectations and I would recommend this location if anyone is around. Great job and keep up the good work!! read more

That iced mint mojito is delicious. Service was super friendly The vibe is really nice Overall just a solid place and easy 5/5 read more

Philz Coffee - Interior. All ready for the holidays. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Orange, California

I like Philz but this location is difficult. I wouldn't frequent this place or recommend it. I wouldn't recommend to grab a coffee there specifically, you have to be wandering the area already. They have tiny parking lot like 6 spots that's supposed to be for mobile orders only yet I couldn't get parking there. I was able to circle the street, look and wait for other parking elsewhere, park, walk in and grab my drink and walk back out and all the same cars still sitting there! Obviously they were NOT MOBILE ORDERS! I WAS a mobile order, that had to search and park elsewhere and walk to pick up my order that's been ready sitting there all that time waiting for my to find parking. read more

i'm not a huge coffee drinker but bc of the sugar in philz coffee, i love it. it also doesn't taste extremely sweet either to the point where it's like a dessert so i don't feel bad abt myself after drinking it. the gingersnap latte was delicious and i would get it again. wait time isn't extremely long but not super short either read more

Philz Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Orange, California

Standing at the counter ordering my beverage I thought to myself, "wowee zowee, that sure is a lot of mint in their frig!" I ordered the chai tea with almond milk and lo and behold, there's the mint. Captain obvious, I know. My powers of rational thought are unmatched. Intellect aside, my brain and taste buds were confused in a not so good way. Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge fan of mint. I'll even it it raw, I love it so much. However, mint isn't for every beverage as evidence by my unfinished chai tea latte. read more

I am a big fan of Philz Coffee and usually when I order Philz from this location, my drinks always come out great. However today I wanted to try one of their new drinks called Unity. At first taste I was hit with a bunch of mint flavor and not so much of the notes that were said to be included in the drink, it was way too overpowering with mint that it became hard to drink as every sip had a piece of mint leaf that came along with it. After finishing the cup, I realized that there was just a TON of mint within my drink, i usually don't get this much mint when I get the mint mojito. The inconsistency of Philz Coffee makes it harder for me to like a certain drink and wish there was more of a standard so that drinks can come out consistent each time I order read more

Philz Coffee - Unity - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Orange, California

CLOSED JAN 21- employee tested positive for COVID Good most of the time, but they have gotten my drink wrong before. Not a huge issue, since they're happy to fix it. Took off one star because they do not enforce the use of masks among customers. Customers will crowd the pick up area and some not wearing masks read more

Philz Coffee - CLOSED as of 01/21 - employee with COVID - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Orange, California

The baristas in this location are always so nice and accommodating. If you ever get stuck on what you want to get, I suggest getting a mocha Tesora extra creamy! The cross aunts are amazing and the atmosphere is the best place to study! read more

Love Philz Coffee ever since they ventured into SoCal years ago, best coffee and beans! The Fullerton location is still closer to where we live but this Orange location is so cute considering the Old Town Orange streets to take a stroll. Take advantage of their monthly 1 pound of beans that's discounted. Order "Philz Way" if you prefer medium cream and medium sugar when at the cashier in person. But it's best to download the app and preorder! read more

Philz Coffee - Large Mocha Tesora, utter chocolate decadence - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Orange, California

Best coffee around, no doubt. Mobile ordering has absolutely destroyed the atmosphere. Baristas are heads down cranking out production.

Gotta love Philz! I don't come here often because it's a bit of a drive from my house, but when I'm in the area, I make it a point to stop by. I've loved everything I've tried from this place. My favorite probably has to be the philtered soul. It has really nice chocolatey and nutty notes to it. I like to do it with cream and light sweetness. You really can't go wrong with anything you order though. Everything here is made pour over style, so the drink tastes freshly made every time. read more

This coffee is unbelievable!! So much flavor and body!! I had this coffee in San Jose for the first time, so when I saw they were in LA, I had to go!! The only thing is they didn't have all the menu items and merchandise. If you like coffee, and you think Starbucks is good, once you try here, your life and mind will definitely change!! read more

Today I had the pleasure of working with Mathew. I wanted to thank you very much for the best customer service I have ever received. It was a pleasure speaking with you and you made my day. Veterans are well taken care of at Philz coffee and it was a great sight to see being welcomed. Oh. The coffee. It was amazing and perfect as usual. I got the Philaharmonic and it was just what I expected it to be. Philz coffee. Consistently delicious!!!! read more

Philz Coffee - Philaharmonic coffee from Philz - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Orange, California

Honestly they have great coffee that's what it comes down to. The staff is always kind and every cup is made fresh. The beans are infused I'm pretty sure and it's just heavenly. The parking can get wack but that's not their fault it's just orange. We get the dancing water and philtered soul both so so good read more

Oh the mint mojito coffee is the best best best cup of coffee I've had. It's simple and not heavy with half and half or any other diary. The fresh mint they put in this drink makes it so addicting for me. No artificial mint flavor. read more

***this review is about FOOD only. I have only had exceptional coffee from Philz, but I am sick of their food not being up to par with their drinks and sick of wasting my money*** Dear Philz, I'm a longtime fan. I love your coffee and spread the good word of Philz wherever I go. But my boasting ends with your beans, because every time I try to eat something from your establishment I regret having put it it in my mouth. I once had a scone here that was harder and dryer than any baked good I ever sold during the 6 years I worked in coffee, or been sold in my 30+ years of life. It seemed like the oldest scone they could've given me, I could not eat it. I've also tried a blueberry muffin which was so disturbingly mushy on the inside that it appeared unbaked, and I also could not eat that. I tried the coffee cake last week, and when I went to break off a piece, I found that the top was already floating independently on top of the bottom piece, and appeared hollowed out from the inside?? Tasted stale and was freaked out by its disheveled state-- threw away immediately. I've also tried some kind of vegan hummus veggie protein bowl that was filled with dry herbs that kept get caught in my teeth and and a bagel that was so chewy I could barely get a bite. I keep trying because...I keep hoping I'll find at least one thing I can eat there but the all signs keep pointing to "eat elsewhere". Then today happened. The straw that broke the camel's back: the sausage frittata. I was super excited for this! I was hungry and hopeful. But when I bit into this frittata, I was thoroughly disgusted. The texture is like a dry, old plastic sea sponge. It's so texturally off putting it literally triggered my trypaphobia just feeling it in my mouth. Gagging ensued. Aside from the awful texture, it tastes like salty sea plastic. Frittatas are usually fluffy, like eggs, but this is like if an egg were made of salty rubber and baked in a sponge mold. I was so saddened to have put it in my mouth. It had no redeeming qualities. I'm so sorry to have to put ya'll on blast like this, but as someone who knows both the coffee industry and the bakery industry in OC extremely well, I not only know when something is bad, but I also know there are FAR better options out there other than whatever garbage supplier you're working with. And if this is all made in-house, consider partnering with a local baker! Just please, please do SOMETHING because Philz coffee deserves pairing with higher caliber food. In parting, I sincerely want to be able to count on Philz for my breakfast coffee+bite but until they solve this I will have to keep going elsewhere and only hitting up Philz for special coffee treats when food is not part of the equation. read more

Philz Coffee - Hot salty sea sponge frittata - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Orange, California

Philz is my favorite coffee shop! Love this location. It's convenient for pickup. I just place my order on the Philz app, pick the time, and it's always ready when I arrive. Parking is limited but I haven't had any issues finding a spot yet. Knock on wood. I love how they've adapted to covid safety measures. One side of the shop is open with a table set out for easy pick up. Service is excellent. What else do you want from a coffee shop? My go-to's (Philtered Soul and Silken Splendor) have never disappointed me. read more

Woooow for all my decaf drinkers, get this order!! To be honest wasn't expecting much from Philz but I am truly shookith! I wish there was one closer to where I live but I guess I'm a have to drink up here! Also the workers were so nice, very kind! read more

Philz Coffee - Decaf drink - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Orange, California

I can't stress enough how excited I am that there is Philz in Orange now and SO close to me!! This is located at the Orange Circle. It's amazing because they also have their own parking lot. Though small but I typically do a mobile order so it's a quick in n out. I also really like the open air of the restaurant where they can open everything up. Looks super modern and fresh! The Ginger Snap and The Rose coffee are my faves! The staff here always makes my coffee to the T, no complaints ever! I also like the classic Mint Mojito but it's becoming to0 basic for me so I like to change it up. I try to go at least once every weekend. Their coffees are kind of pricey - $6ish dollars for a large but I am gonna continue to frequent this place. It is just that deeelish!! read more

Best place to get Coffee! Some of their best drinks are; Mint Mojito, Philz Cold Brew & Gingersnap! read more

First time ever getting coffee here.. and I WILL be back! I walked in never being there before and the young man at the counter was .. Amazing! His name is Andrew and I have never before or at leas in a long time, had service like his! He was so great! Knowing I was new and did not even know what the menu was, he pointed it out for me to look at and then explained it all to me.. short , sweet, precise! And as he did, explained what the process was and made me feel welcomed and like he truly was glad I was there. He was kind and friendly! I had the Iced Mint Mojito! WOW so good! They are my new favorite and Andrew is my new favorite barista! Thanks Andrew!! read more

This place is a must for anyone who enjoys their coffee black in a pour over form. My usual go to is the "Dancing Water" since I prefer light roast over the others. read more

I have tried Philz 4 times hoping each time will be better than the first. The coffee is bland and no matter the flavor I try, it's disgusting. I don't understand why it's so popular. I've tried many coffee spots and this just is not it. The staff is amazing and so sweet but the coffee is just plain awful. No flavor and does not taste like coffee. read more

My experience was made entirely because of one staff member. Her name is ASHLEY! She crafted me a drink so scrumptious. I walked in very nervous and unsure of what to get, she made me feel so at home and made me a drink based on what I would like. I cannot speak highly enough of ASHLEY. She should be president. She should be CEO. I'm obsessed. Everyone go to Philz to meet Ashley. read more

I love Philz coffee I am a regular iced coffee Rosé drinker. I love the orange circle location for people watching and relaxing. If you want to get your drink quickly make sure to order ahead with their app! This is a great coffee shop for hanging out or meeting with a group. read more

I absolutely love Philz coffee! It's by far one of my most favorite coffee shops ever. The Philtastic, sweet with almond milk is my go to. This location is very cute and so clean! Staff was friendly too. read more

Love Philz and they are getting closer to Irvine ;). I happen to be in the area so I decided to grab a coffee. This location is right in downtown Orange which is great location. I also liked the open air of the restaurant where they can open everything up. You order and then go out to wait. The baristas are all the way in the back ad they will bring your drinks up to the tables when they are ready. They also have stevia sugar which is nice! It's strong so watch out. I can't drink it after 2pm, otherwise I won't sleep. SYOY! read more

Philz Coffee - Nice set up for social distancing - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Orange, California

Probably my favorite local coffee place. You have to get the Rose coffee. Wow is it good! That's really all I get since once I got it, I could never go back. I've forever been ruined by it and no coffee will ever be as good. Thank me later read more

I'm addicted. I come here way too often. It's the best coffee. Beats a milky espresso everyday. My favorite is the Jacob's bar with light cream and no sugar. But if I want a treat, I'll add light honey. read more

Flavorful coffee, it seriously punches you in the face. The chai not so much, if you're looking for a warm spiced chai you will be flipped around. The croissant was so buttery and delicious with the spiced chocolate center and the fiber muffin was surprisingly good. The servers were all nice and really showed a connection to each other as well as serve us in a timely manner. The shop is really well colored, lit, and designed. I could even do my work there. I recommend to skip your big corporation and head down if you're in the area. read more

I was floored by my experience at Philz Coffee. I ordered an iced latte with rose cream, and it was exceptional! It was smooth, not too sweet, and tasted high quality. The baristas were friendly and personable. I frequently go to coffee shops to study, and Philz was an amazing place to get work done because of how the seating was slightly separated from the barista/ordering area. This made the noise level perfect, because I could still hear the coffee shop ambience, but it wasn't too overwhelming. It was also relatively quiet; they don't play loud music. Great bar style seating with outlets at every chair!!! and working WiFi!! I also loved how the tables were right next to the floor-to-ceiling length windows. The amount of natural lighting really elevated my experience here. It gets crowded easily, so if you are here to study or work, I would recommend coming early. read more

This Philz has good service and interestingly you order through the cashier and not the barista. They have a few indoor seating but they also have outdoor seating on the side although it can be hot in the summer and no shade. They also have an outside bathroom read more

Great place to study/work. Nice music and secluded area with seating, both inside and out.

Philz Coffee - philtered soul, mocha tesora - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Orange, California

I came to this location this previous Sunday (1/22) at around 11-1130am. The store was not very busy, which was a welcomed surprise as I typically visit the Fullerton location when I got to Philz and it's always very busy there no matter the time of day. I walked into the shop and one of the friendly baristas took my order for their classic Iced Mint Mojito. It took between 5-10 minutes to receive my drink after ordering which was perfectly fine. Once I had it - chef's kiss - this drink NEVER disappoints and this visit was not an exception. The earthiness of the coffee paired with the fresh, herbal mint finished off with the sweetness of the brown sugar makes my heart so happy. I did not try it the "house way" but I might next time depending on how I feel, though candidly I am a creature of habit and probably won't. 10/10 experience, wouldn't have changed a thing about it save for Keanu Reeves being my date to enjoy my mojito with. Cheers! read more

Philz Coffee - Mint Mojito :) - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Orange, California

Delicious. Cool vibe. Staff was cool and helped me pick a drink out. I had Jacob's Wonderbar with oat milk (iced). Very good. Will return

Very nice store, parking is terrible but that's not their fault. I've been to multiple Philz location and unfortunately this was the worst. I got the mocha tesora and normally it's a perfect balance of coffee and mocha. This location tasted like like a mocha hot chocolate with no coffee. There was also no affects of having coffee. I also got a mint mojito and it tasted very watered down with no hints of mint. Would try again to see if it was an off day or not but based on other reviews this seems to be a common theme for this location. read more

So happy there's another Philz location that's close to me! Even though they opened during Covid-19, they handled it beautifully. We went on Friday, which I think may have been the first day they were taking online orders? Not sure but we saw a promo for free drinks and decided to check out the Orange Circle. It's on the corner of Glassell and Maple, on the same block as Bruxie and Rutabegorz. There are about five parking spots and they were set up for pickup. There's some seating in front and on the side. Sanitation supplies are provided on a little table outside. I was anticipating that drinks were going to be slower than promised, as they're newly opened, but they were on time. They were friendly and 6 ft spacing was clearly defined. Drinks were made perfectly! Thanks Philz!! And now you have your choice of Starbucks, Urth, Contra, and Philz within a small radius. They're all different and I think it's great to have so many choices within reach! read more

Loved the location and the aesthetic. The service was good. Very clean and spacious. We ordered 2 iced drinks. However both drinks were watered down. There was no flavor. There was alot more ice than the drink itself. Very disappointed, the location looked welcoming which is why we decided to give it a try. Sadly we won't be returning to this location. read more
