Stop in every time I come to Stanford. Great food options. The service is always great with a smile. It's an open busy place. I like to work from here from time to time. read more

First time visiting this location. I had lunch around this area and decided to grab coffee afterward. This location is spacious with lots of seats inside. I always order Mint Mojito. I should try Salted Butterscotch or Honey Haze next time. I've visited a few locations and I don't think the flavor is consistent, depends on the barista. read more

This is the best coffee I've ever tasted in all my years THANK YOU to Asya who made my drink - you seriously made my day and deserve a FAT raise because this was so scrumptious I think I'll be back every day read more

I used to love Philz because of their creative flavors and strong coffee flavor. But for some reason the flavors are not shining through as much as they used to, which makes it hard to justify the price for a specialty drink when it now mostly tastes like coffee that's watered down :( read more

Philz is one of my favorite coffee shop chains in the Bay area. As a cold brew drinker, Philz is top tier! I love how you can easily customize creaminess and sweetness levels in the app or in-person. Their staff are generally pretty friendly, and this location is very clean. There is a decent amount of seating, but the tables are mismatched, so you may be sitting next to someone you don't know. Regardless, I highly recommend Philz to anyone who enjoys coffee and is in the Bay area. read more

BEWARE OF BEING CHEATED WHEN YOU BUY A POUND OF COFFEE AT THIS LOCATION: I love Philz coffee, the review is for the service. I bought three 1 pound bags of coffee, two prepackaged and one packaged by Brittany at the location. The prepackaged bags were indeed one pound, the one packaged in the store looked small, so I weighted them at home. The one the store packaged was A LOT LESS that one pound. I called to get the money returned, but got nowhere. Considering the price of a pound of Philz coffee this is unacceptable. read more

This is a nice Phil's in Palo Alto. It's close to the Patagonia. The service is pretty quick and friendly. My go-to is the iced mocha tesora less sweet. I get a lot of mochas but I don't find a lot of mochas that taste as creamy as this one! read more

Great food, coffee and service. Finally a coffee that tastes like coffee . I hate Starbucks read more

Good spot, vibe was really good with a lot of people in and out, my only complaint is it just reminded me of a get in and get out spot, not much of a friendly feeling, order your drink and move on to next. read more

My go to location! Friendly staff, can get busy so I order online for pick up coffee is always great.

Absolutely disgusting mint mojito. Zero taste. Tossed it. Won't be returning. Like ever.

Iced Tesora Philz way. IYKYK. Craving sweet, creamy coffee and Philz checks all the boxes. - Order ahead via app. Wait was not bad for Sunday afternoon. - Parking is easy along Alma. - Seating inside and outside. Wonderful bay area coffee! read more

Super nice employees at this location and very quick and efficient service! I did feel like there was some inconsistency in the product at this location as my usual Iced Mint Mojito Sweet and Creamy was not very sweet at all, so the proportions were probably slightly off when poured. Overall still a positive experience and would return to this location! read more

I liked the venue. Lots of outlets to charge phone or plug in laptop. I ordered a medium cup ofcoffee recommended by the cashier. The coffee was delicious. I just thought it was overpriced. $5.75 seems a bit steep for a simple cup of coffee. read more

The place was clean for an afternoon during the week. It had tons of folks working out of it which was expected. The workers were really nice! And pleasant to talk to while we waited for our drinks. I also got a chocolate croissant that is no where to be seen because I was starving and scarfed it down. I love Philz coffee. This is my first time at this one and the only reason for the 4 stars was the wait for our drinks and the outside tables were a bit dirty so we had to wipe it down ourselves. But all in all, you can never go wrong with a Philz coffee and pastry in the afternoon! read more

I've heard about Philz Coffee from my foodie friends for years, so I was very excited to finally try it! My group was greeted right away. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The space is big and offers plenty of seating. I ordered the tesora, and my son ordered the mint mojito. Both drinks were delicious and not too sweet. The mint mojito -- their signature iced drink -- was very unique and refreshing! I would visit Philz again! read more

Philz Coffee - a hand holding a cup of coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Palo Alto, California

This location is my stop on my way to work! Parking can be a bit tricky but I've always found a spot right outside the coffee shop. My go to is their iced rosé latte, medium sweet and creamy! I love the customer service and how they always want to make sure your drink is perfect :-) read more

We ordered dark roast black coffee and were surprised to be offered four choices. We ordered the most popular and it's good coffee. The staff seemed to have top many orders to fill. read more

i used to come to this philz all the time but all summer the coffee has actually been terrible. it tastes burnt all the time and the workers are extremely unpleasant mean girls. i can literally taste the malice in their souls in my coffee. i came in past a pickup time and the girl rolled her eyes at me and just held up the tickets when i told her the name instead of saying it wasn't ready yet. sometimes there is one very sweet girl working, but i know based on the staff working whether to go in or not. the menlo park location is so much better and the baristas are extremely sweet. a lot of my friends and i will drive the extra distance and have avoided the forest ave location for months. read more

I was in the area and decided to try the new caramel drink with cream instead of oat milk. First of all that is heavenly. It reminds me of some kind of oatmeal crème cookie or something. My only feedback besides the drink being delicious was that my drink was 80% ice and not cubes it was a huge chunk stuck together. After a few sips I had an iceberg. I don't mind some ice but mama needs coffee. read more

Awesome service and great coffee! Try the Turkish or any other custom made cup! Shout out to Archie in Palo Alto and his team...very friendly read more

Surprising morning. Early morning. 5AM Ordered two Oatmeal Cookie Cold Brew (large) And a Buttered Croissant. Surprisingly they have claimed the best tasting served drink. Their care in making drinks is with precision and dedication to quality. The guy, that guy surprisingly will have his own and be, his own, someday. You can see he really wants to make something more of himself. Good luck to the big guy read more

Recently I discovered the philtered ecstatic which is new fav menu item!! I also tried their jalapeno cheese bagel which was very good!

A much bigger location than other locations. Friendly staff and clean place. Sometimes in a warm day there's no AC inside. I like the most is the outdoor seating coz it has lots of spaces and chairs. The ice mojito is still good. read more

This Philz is always busy and packed. Mobile orders here take a really long time (20-min+) and I always wonder if it'd be faster walking in and ordering since there are more baristas making those orders. A note for next time! Drinks are always good- my go to is an iced Jacobs Wonderbar, Jacobs way (medium honey and medium cream). Parking is easier to find than you'd think, even on a weekend early afternoon. read more

Philz Coffee - the interior of a coffee shop - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Palo Alto, California

Spacious and well played out. Good staff but... Philz was once one of the best places ever to get coffee. Like most chains that grow, they have taken the path to "big is better" and as a result they've obviously picked cutting corner($) where they can. For the average coffee beverage drinker who puts multiple ingredients in their coffee just to get it down, this will likely be unnoticeable. However for those who otherwise enjoy "Coffee" and have been drinking real good coffee for sometime, the difference a decade makes is astounding. And disappointing. read more

First time to a Philz and I have to say I learned something new! I am a regular iced americano girl and I didn't realize this is a brewed coffee place. I actually have never been to a pour over or cold brew only vs espresso place for iced coffee! So I was taught something new and their variety of coffee is different and as I didn't know what I was ordering so I felt a little rushed - not by them but for me just to choose what I wanted and not hold anyone else up. They were nice, and next time I will browse the menu a little more. read more

It had been years since I'd been to this location. Parking: only street parking available. I ordered ahead online for hubby and I. Our drinks were ready when we arrived and our food was just about done. Hubby thought his breakfast sandwich was okay, but better than their breakfast burritos that we had on our last Philz visit (diff. location). We sat outside for a bit at their outdoor tables. That's when I felt my mint mojito tasted watered down. Hubby went inside to ask if they could remake it. I thought the guy would get offended but he was professional about it and remade it and even asked my husband how his day was going and began a conversation w.him while he remade it. We were there in the morning so the sun was facing the outdoor seating. Their 2 umbrellas were not enough, IMO. read more

Whenever I come to visit California I try to come to Philz for their iced mint mojito sweet and creamy style! This location has lots of seating to come and enjoy a cup, study for a bit, or just swing to go. Food I ordered the iced mint mojito and got it sweet and creamy. I think that the creaminess that is added is the best way to have this drink. There are a variety of other flavors and tones of coffee as well if you want a standard coffee drink. Pastries are served here if you want a quick bite as well. Atmosphere Open safe and casual cafe to grab coffee or even study for a bit. Did not see too many wall outlets but I wasn't paying attention too much. Noise level average for a coffee shop. Plenty of natural lighting though. Pricing Average prices for a coffee and is worth the money since it's so good! Service My mint mojito came out pretty quick and I was able to go about my day easily. The staff was nice! Other There is some street parking available but the area is pretty busy and bustling with restaurants and shops so can be challenging to find. read more

I had a Mint Mojito. It was so good I could of had it a little creamier but it was good. It was a little slow but it was busy so I totally understand and it felt like it was under staffed. It has a table you share with others outside seating and a few tables also a window bar seating which you can charge your phone or computer! read more

I love this Philz coffee their philtered soul is so nutty and yummy I love the taste of nut in my mouth My only complaint is that I pay like 7 bucks for a coffee every time also the honey haze is just a philtered soul with honey but honey haze costs a dollar more and it's free to add honey to the philtered soul lol Like this place though it always smells nice and the vibes are good read more

This location is so lovely, the customer service is incredible. Ramy went out of his way to help me with my drink, he was incredibly patient and kind while still being so fast with preparing drinks and still attending other customers. He's extremely hard working & kind. Service & drink was a 10/10 read more

Great service and good coffee. Gave very nice recommendations about coffee varieties and the right cream. Fairly large place. The coffee was tasty read more

Went to Phil's coffee in the morning for my usual filtered soul light sweet and light creamy. I got a medium beverage and once Nick place a small cup down he immediately knew that he made the wrong size. He immediately went to make another medium sized coffee Without prompting anything and without fuss. Five star service to Nick. read more

Great Cold Brew! Love the Pfiltered version. Also, order ahead. They seem to be very busy! read more

To this very day... I will always consider Philz Coffee my Absolute favorite coffee of all time! Selection is not extensive but quality is superb. My first time at the Palo Alto location.

I used to go here, literally almost every single day and spent thousands of dollars every year on drinks, but I'm just going to make my tea at home from now on because there's this regular crew of mentally ill homeless people that are there every day and I would rather enjoy my drink in peace and quiet. read more

I had a great cup of coffee here. Philz' concept of making one cup of coffee at a time was really neat. It was great to be able to order the specific type of coffee that I wanted. Philz offered 13 different coffee blends ranging from light roasts to dark roasts. read more

Absolutely amazing coffee! This is my first time here. My son raves about Phil's Coffee and brought me and my husband here on our visit. The Philtered Soul cold brew we tried was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! Got the Philz way: medium sugar & medium cream. Never tasted coffee this good. I had to buy a bag of beans - $20/1 lb bags. Looking forward to good mornings. Guy at the till and the baristas are all very friendly and carries that coffee shop vibe. read more
