Crowded, but good. There are outside tables in a nice little courtyard, and I got a lot of work done on my laptop. The only reason I decided to leave was that someone broke into a car nearby, in broad daylight, and it no longer felt very safe. But that had nothing to do with Philz.

I love Philz. But something is wrong with this Philz location. The wait is unusually long. Today I waited ten minutes with no one in front of me. By that time I left. Not coming back!

Great coffee, 4 stars because the layout of the space makes it very confusing.

This should be the golden standard of Philz coffee. I’ve visited just about every Philz location in the Bay Area and this is absolutely my favorite. The baristas here get my drink order right every single time without fail.I’ve been coming here since college for years and it hasn’t let down yet. The location is perfect, in the heart of Rockridge, and the area is very lively so grab a coffee and explore.

Philz Coffee has great drinks and flavors, but it seems like the coffee itself is not their strongest suit. The prices are slightly high, which is typical for the area. The atmosphere is lively and the surrounding neighborhood is safe.

S0-called sausage burrito was a POTATO burrito with an extremely tiny almost negligible amount of sausage in it and almost no eggs. Total scrambled egg in this *maybe* equaled 1/8th of 1 egg. It also had a LOT of red pepper all over it, making it massively spicy. Tossed it. The banana bread tasted totally artificial and gross, tasted like it was made with oil and fake banana flavoring rather than butter and real bananas. Also tossed that. The kouign aman was tasty but seemed slightly stale, likely day-old from yesterday. Expensive order to end up throwing most of it out.The Philz in S. SF on Westborough is MUCH better. This location = disappointing.

Great coffee shop with good coffee selections! Tried their ice mint mojito and I definitely recommend to give it a try. Their pork sausage egg burrito was good, it has a very subtle spice to it that definitely makes it better even without hot sauce! If you need a quick coffe and bite this coffee shop is definitely worth checking out!
Ordered:Medium Iced Mint Mojito (~$6)Aya's take:Whenever I'm back in the Bay, I make an effort to make my way to a Philz to re-experience the deliciousness that is the Mint Mojito. It always get it the "House Way" which is sweet & creamy. And I love the fresh mint on top tying it all together. This is THE drink for a caffeine kick, aromatic notes, with a balance of sweetness and creaminess. My only mistake was getting a Medium instead of a Large. Do yourself a favor and try it!

Nice staff, GREAT coffee - love the Mint Mojito, hot or cold! So many other unique coffee drinks and flavors you won’t find at Blue Bottle, Peet’s or Starbucks:)Nice big space & conveniently located next to Safeway with a large parking lot!

Consistent coffee taste and quality! Unfortunately, consistently lengthy wait times I've come to associate with Philz, as well. The baristas are efficient and kind- just busy with endless orders! As befits our Berkeley streets, it can also be difficult finding street parking hereabouts. Overall, very satisfied- just don't come when pressed for time!
