Staff here are always friendly and social, which I appreciate and drinks are well made. My go to drink is the iced honey haze, and I love how sweet and creamy the drink comes out. One think I appreciate about Philz is their attention to making sure the drink is correct, I love that they also ask how it tastes and offer to make any modifications when handing out a drink, while it's almost always how I like it, it's nice to have the affirmative invitation to adjust the drink if needed. Overall, this Philz is a solid spot for a coffee in the area!

I can see literal $h*t on the edges of the bowl, toilet seat cover was stashed really badly so people kept ripping it and fell all over the floor. I sat down at the counter bar and I see coffee splashes, thick layer of dust on the white brick wall. Disgusting. Business owner- if you see this and think your worker doesn't have time to clean, they certainly do. Three of them were talking LOUD non stop in the 1 hour and 30min I stayed. This was June 10th around 3:30-5pm.

Yesterday early morning, after dropping my father off at the hospital for his glaucoma surgery, I…read morestopped by a nearby Starbucks. This location in Larchmont is one of my favorite Starbucks. I love that I can charge my phone, the staff is always friendly, and all their drinks (including the coffee) and pastries are delicious. Ordering a cup of coffee here and taking a stroll down Larchmont Boulevard is so refreshing. In particular, I want to give a huge shout-out to Hugo, who seemed to be the manager yesterday (oh yeah, I was able to catch his name without even asking--I saw his nametag when he walked past me!). From the moment I walked in, he and all the other staff members gave me such a warm, friendly welcome. He was incredibly kind not just to me, but to all of the customers, and looked very professional. Also, they were giving out free Uber Espresso drinks to everyone yesterday, and it was really good. (However, free drinks are dangerous: it was tasty, but it was so sweet that my teeth haven't been feeling great and actually hurt since I drank it. OMG. I spent a lot of money on composite fillings and inlays for my teeth a few years ago, so I usually try to avoid sugary drinks, but I totally forgot yesterday and just drank it anyway.) Fortunately, I did skip the free Strawberry Mango Lemonade they were handing out to all the customers after that. (It just looked way too sweet!) I had one of my favorites, the Banana Walnut Loaf at this Starbucks too, and it was delicious. When I asked for a cup of water, a fork, and a knife, Hugo immediately had another staff member grab them for me so quickly, which I was very satisfied with. Even though yesterday was my first time seeing Hugo, I think he is a wonderful person who works incredibly hard, does his absolute best, and treats customers with genuine kindness. When there's someone like him working at a restaurant or cafe, it simply puts every customer who walks through the door in a good mood.

BEST BARISTAS IN TOWN!…read more Haven't been to this location in almost a decade due to moving and I can happily say it's just as good as it was years ago if not better. The store is immaculate and chill, the baristas are incredibly friendly and I think this Starbucks might make the best drinks in the city compared to every other location I've been too. Whoever is the manager at this location needs a raise as do their baristas. This is now my new main spot. See you soon guys! X

View of Sunset Blvd which honestly isn't as exciting as it sounds but you can kinda see the hills ish. The high chair view of the street it just cool. Logistically parking is one hour free otherwise gotta walk here from the neighborhood. And I feel like coffee is more $ here but they do have free iced coffee refills. For the longest time there was no iced coffee only Americano to be found so that's nice. Ended up just paying a flat rate for way too much coffee that did not taste great but y'know. Gift card

It tasted clean and light with a nice strong peach flavor. The Dubai chocolate frappe was rich and creamy with a deep chocolate flavor that felt like dessert in a cup.

The shop itself was clean and is a good spot to grab something to-go after a meal. Overall, solid experience. I'd definitely come back for that frappe. The parking lot isn't that large, so I'd imagine you'd have to find street parking when it gets busy. The surrounding area is a little sketch so park in well-lit places!

The service was amicable and timely, both very appreciated. The interior is clean and well kept. Only note is there were no napkins in the dispenser or anywhere else. And my boba leaked a lil bit. Ohhh welll! Otherwise, super central location. Will be back soon when back in the center of it all for work. Thanks for the yummy iced matcha, and great service.

It was pretty quiet in there, save for almost constant web orders being picked up. There was one woman in front of us waiting for her beverage. Service took a while because only two people were working. (But I don't know if more than two fit behind the counter.) A little tough for a weekend morning. The staff was prioritizing the online orders, and left all 3 of the pending beverages open, partially complete, for 15+ min. When they finally called my sister's drink and name, the woman in front of us - who was there first - grabbed it accidentally. Luckily she just put a straw in and my sister was willing to take it because the baristas would have taken way longer to make an additional beverage. I hope the place isn't normally operated like that, it felt really scattered and took almost a half hour to get two beverages. (The Sparks Latte was insanely good, though!)

My favorite part of course the cream on top, which is very sweet but also has a sprinkle of cocoa to balance it out. The latte itself, is just like any vanilla latte to me. There is street parking around the shop, but it tends to get super busy. When you get any drink, make sure to stop by the station they have with utensils and stuff to get something to mix the syrup on the bottom, this applies to their lattes and drinks in general. They took my order at the register and asked if I wanted any milk alternatives, etc. and were super nice! My drink came out very fast as well and they would call your order when it's ready. If you are able to, I would recommend online ordering just so it's faster! There is plenty of seating indoors as well as a few outdoors.
