It all began in 1978, when Phil purchased a convenience store in the Mission District. He treated his customers with courtesy and respect, and he was always attentive to their needs. You can’t go wrong if you emphasize people, he learned.
Phil spent his free time experimenting with various brews in effort to perfect the perfect cup of coffee. Philz Coffee was born when he moved his kitchen table into the convenience store after 25 years of trying. Quality and care have always been important to Philz, as well as warmth and connection. This is what makes Philz feel like he belongs. Phil realized right away that the best coffee is the one that meets your tastes.
The Philz adheres to a set of guiding principles in order to maintain a healthy environment.
We listen, learn, and make big decisions.
